“We were in Knoxville from out of town to clean out a house. We had contracted with one of the national franchises to help us out, but on our agreed upon day, they didn’t come through… Late in the afternoon, we reached out to Out With The Old. They came that afternoon... They did everything they promised to do, in exactly the manner they promised to do it. At the end of the day, they sent a video walk-through of the house and grounds. I would use them again in a minute."

Ryland reached out late in the day after a national company failed to show. Out With the Old Junk Removal came out that same afternoon to assess the job, communicated clearly while working after the owners left town, and completed the scrap metal and cleanout work exactly as promised.
