I’m literally lost for words on how rude the gentleman that worked here is, tall white guy named Paul worst interaction just wanted to be rude to me for no reason, told me I don’t know how to read a sign when the gentleman outside told me to go around the building due to construction, then came up to when I was unloading the mattress to tell me to “hurry up” an then after I went to go pay he clearly seen me take out 1 mattress told me I had a box spring like listen you rude old man I got no reason to lie or cheat any Buisness of any money for there service. Obviously he is just a angry man trying to start confrontation with someone that did Nuttin to him other then bring them Buisness. Will not use this recycle service again an if you guys encounter Paul you will understand he is just a rude old man that finds satisfaction on being rude to people for no reason.
