kevin fredrickson (5/5 stars, 4 years ago): I see why you have 5 stars. Everything about my experience today was great. I called to see if I could get rid of some old tube TV's and a real live person answered the phone. She was polite and told me exactly what I had to do. I had to stop at City Hall first and there to I talked to a really nice gal who was very helpful. I was by myself and wasn't sure I could offload the TV's by myself but along came two nice gentlemen that helped me. Thank you all very much.
