mulch, water softeners
 + 0 moreGood quality mulch. However....Midwest Salt shorted my residential mulch order. I ordered 8 yards. They delivered between 4.5 and 5 yards. I contacted Midwest Salt to politely inform them of the shortage. I offered Midwest Salt an opportunity to send a representative to come walk my property so they could see that they indeed shorted the order. The Midwest Salt representative said he would look into the issue and follow-up with me. He did not follow-up with me. Buy your mulch elsewhere...the dollar or two you save per yard at Midwest Salt will be offset by not receiving your order in full.

water softeners
 + -1 moreI have used their delivery service for years. It's always been on time. I called them and set an appointment for the delivery. They had to juggle their schedule to meet my need for a Saturday delivery. The delivery man came on time and carried in the 36 blocks to my basement and checked the timing on the water softener. He filled up the salt container and stacked the rest of the blocks in a convenient place. It's very convenient.
Description of Work: Delivered 36 twenty-five pound salt blocks, loaded some into my water softener and stacked the rest for later use in my basement. Also checked that my water softener's timer was correctly set for time change due to daylight savings time.

water softeners
 + -1 morePoor. This took me a week to get done when for the last 15 years I've used them and all went smoothly. Unfortunately, the wonderful gentleman who owned this place retired and moved west. Ever since they sold the business to someone who moved it to Batavia, it has been a challenge get orders planned and executed properly. Very disappointed to see a great business become just average. That said, they do deliver all the way to the softener in the basement so I will continue to use them despite the challenges I've had with this outing a the last few.
Description of Work: Called them up for my usual every 6 months delivery of salt to my softener. We talked extensively to pick a day for server deciding on Saturday with specific after lunch or later morning delivery time planned. They were to call 20 minutes before they were to arrive. We waited for them all afternoon, they never showed. Called them the following week to ask why they didn't arrive, suspecting a date mix up, person I spoke to said we were not scheduled for last Saturday or next Saturday :-( So, they found the guy who scheduled us who "left the paperwork on his desk" and said we were scheduled for next week. We weren't wasting another Saturday so we scheduled an early Thursday morning. They arrived that morning and all went well that morning.

 + -1 moreFairly well though they've become less reliable recently as the business was sold and has relocated. Their delivery times are now more difficult to coordinate and phone ordering which used to be trivial is now troublesome. I will continue to use them but the service is declining :-(

 + -1 moreThey first delivered salt to my home when I bought my home 15 years ago and continue to do so today. They are fantastic.
Description of Work: Midwest Salt delivers salt blocks to my basement and has for about 15 years. They deliver about twice a year with 20-25 50 pound blocks. I've used no one, but them and would recommend them to anyone. They have recommended contractors for service to our softener also. We have been happy with the company they recommended and they continue to service my softener when needed.

 + -1 moreThe employee that came out was very helpful and insisted upon carrying the salt blocks to our basement near the softener, as well as stacking them. Reasonable price and included a free education about how our particular water softener works. Very quick response time and professional service.
Description of Work: Ordered lots of salt blocks for the water softener.
