***SUPER SERVICE AWARD WINNER 2014 & 2013***Established in 1991 in Concord CA with just one person I-Haul has grown into a house-hold name for reliable hauling and junk removal services in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since it's inception they have continued to grow through customer loyalty and striving for excellence.
I-Haul's belief in putting the customer's needs first has been one of it's key components of success. Everyone has junk or reusable items to get rid of somewhere in their house, office, or yard. And when they feel comfortable with who they are dealing with it inherently leads to customer retention. It is I-Haul's desire to always be raising the bar on it's competition.
"Providing quality service and giving back to the community is what this is all about". With more than half of I-Hauls jobs consisting of repeat clients, and a percentage of our profits and reusable items being donated to charities, we are trying to redefine what a small community based company is all about.
Carrying 2 mil liability insurance you can get the relief you need at a competitive rate with the peace of mind you deserve.
We happily accept new residential clientele and business accounts.
Cost is determined by the job. Extra charge for large or unusual appliances and tires may apply. Extra charge of $20 per hour for additional labor may apply. (11/5/08). Additional phone number: (415)223-3115
Hazardous waste removal including things such as: gasoline / diesel fuels, bleach / household cleaners, paint / paint thinners, or anything considered household hazardous waste.
THEY NEVER RESPONDED. Called one day in the morning & left my number. Called later in the afternoon to say it's a land-line, we can't get texts. Nothing. Called the next day once more. Called a fourth time and their mailbox was full, taking no messages. Went to the website and filled out the form with my e-mail address too. No response in over 3 days of trying. Hugely disappointed since all the reviews glow, the website says they support children through donations, and nowhere does it say they're on vacation or shut down. If they don't want the job, they should say so instead of leaving people hanging.
Description of Work: Hauling of some furniture because we're selling the house and need it done immediately. All reviews were glowing about their punctuality and responsiveness.

Service itself was great. Major miscommunication on price. I sent photos in advance for a quote of $175. After pickup I was told $475 for full load. Marco settled on $275, more than I could afford, but I didn't feel I had any choice.
Description of Work: some household furniture (chest,hutch,couch,rug,desk) dismantled exercise machine and weight needed to be hauled away. All items were placed at the end of the driveway for easy pickup.

Impossible to reach and set up, and then did not show up on scheduled date. So much time and energy to even get them to show up, and then they tried to charge me more claiming their rates went up. When I said that was not right to change it on me he told me just to get a refund from Angie's list and did not care. Almost wanted me to just get my money back and not use them. It was a bizarre experience! Took me about a month to get anyone here.

These guys go way above and beyond. I'd have given them a good review if they'd just hauled away all the junk, but they went the extra mile and cleared out the weeds. All if them. Some were 6 feet tall. Made my month, because that's probably how long is have taken to do that.

I had I-Haul remove a free standing wine storage unit. The unit was located in a spare room which meant it had to be moved from the room, down a hall, and then down the front steps. Prior to their arrival, I had prepared everything by removing the door from the spare room, cleared the walls in the hall of all pictures and mirrors, and checked all the clearances to make sure there would be no other obstructions. The crew of two had brought a refrigerator dolly which apparently had dirt caked on the wheels as there were clumps of dirt in the spare room and down the hall when they left. I knew it would not be an easy task getting the unit down the front stairs but after the unit was down I noted that all the stairs had paint chipped off them and one stair actually was gouged down to the bare wood. From the time the crew showed up until when they left was approximately 20 minutes. When I had called for the service I was told the price would be between $125 and $175 and in no circumstances be more than $200. I understood there were a number of unknowns so a firm price was not realistic. The prep work I did was an effort to make the job easier and go quicker so the cost would be held down. I had been told that one of the crew would tell me how much it was when they were done. Surprise, surprise when I asked and I was told it would be $198, just under that under "no circumstances .. more than $200". It was obvious that price had been decided on even before the crew arrived. I may or may not use I-Haul again if I have anything more to dispose of but if I do have them back it will be under a firm contract with a firm price and after competitive bidding.

Response from I-Haul
Hello. Thank you for your feedback. It really helps us do our best to improve, and to meet our goals of providing exceptional customer satisfaction. This is the first time we are hearing anything about your concerns, and we certainly would have taken the opportunity to correct this immediately, had we been aware, and before we accepted payment. We check with our crew after every job, and the driver commented that you seemed very happy that day. We are sorry that that is not the case. As you mentioned, and as we discussed, it's always difficult to give a firm price over the phone, without having seen the items in person. That's the reason we gave you an estimated window of 125.00-200.00. The size and weight of a wine refrigerator varies from very small to very large. The estimate was based on the item to be removed, and not based on the length of time to remove the item. The 198.00 that you paid is within the range that we estimated, as you stated, and is within our going rate for a large wine refrigerator, the size of a standard home refrigerator. Without your authorization, we would never have proceeded to remove the item. We will be talking to our crew in order to ensure that they are much more careful in the future. As you can see from many of our other reviews, they usually leave a very good impression and anything less is not acceptable. We hope that we have the opportunity to serve you in the future. Thank you very much.

This is the second time I have used I-Haul. The first time was several years ago. Marco continues to provide excellent service. We set the date and approximate time; then this morning he called to verify the time and followed up after his crew left to make sure that I was satisfied with the work. His crew was careful in moving a very large desk out of an office space and down the hall. There was also a large heavy couch they handled with ease.

Description of Work: Removed and hauling away many large flower pots, junk, large training cage, two large TV's, etc. Cleaned yard, leaves, branches, in between my stones left my back yard looking great. Anything I wanted them to do they did it quickly and professionally and didn't say "no" or we can't. Already recommend to others. Thank you.

Marco and his crew showed up as scheduled. Called to confirm well in advance and called again on day of service. From the first contact I had confidence I could rely on them to show up. That assurance was important for me due to scheduling needs. The second aspect I liked was having some idea of what it would cost. They price in a fair manner by the fraction of their truck capacity they use and it is reasonable given the dump fees they are charged.

It was okay. They did come and charged more than what the advertisement was for because they had one trap and they charged a little more but they did okay. I didn't have any complains with the services it's just that I had to pay them a little more than what Angie's Lists stipulated. It was fine...no problem. I had done them online at that time so they were good.
