Home Services reviews in Chicago, Illinois

Chris was professional, friendly and true to his word. Great service.

Juan was great and very personable. He came and took some junk from my apartment during a move out. He was easy to schedule with, arrived on time and loaded up everything in under an hour. Very impressive as he came by himself and there were some larger furniture. Also worked out a fair price. Highly recommend using Macho Man hauling service!!

I highly recommend using Macho Man Junk Removal. Chris was very professional, personable and the price he quoted was the price we paid. He made a daunting task as pleasant as it could possibly be. He was very punctual. I will definitely use his services again if the need arises. Thanks Chris! John and Jennifer

Chris and his crew did a quick and amazing job of removing items from apartment! Do glad we found him. If you need someone I highly recommend!!

Juan came right out same day and picked up all the cardboard from furnishing our home! Super reliable and trustworthy and we will be using you again!!!

If you're looking for fair prices, professionalism, and staff that genuinely cares about the people/service they provide, then I suggest you contact Chris for your next junk removal. Chris came out to our 3rd floor apartment to remove a large sectional, ottoman, and other medium to large furniture/kitchen items with his colleague Daniel. They completed the work quickly and were so kind and friendly! It's clear that Chris has extensive experience in this space, and we very much appreciated working with him. I will definitely be reaching out in the future for another removal service I'm planning. Thanks, Chris and Daniel!

I've used Macho Man twice now and both times the service was excellent. Juan was very friendly, flexible with scheduling, and hauled everything promptly and quickly. All for a very reasonable price. Strongly recommend letting Macho Man save you the headache of doing it all yourself!

Reasonable rates and professional! Chris was helpful and flexible with furniture removal/disposal. Would definitely hire him again.

Stop looking, just use Macho.

Chris is great. Great price, showed up early on a Saturday (not sure Saturdays are always available, so be sure to ask). Worked quickly and efficiently and got everything loaded up and away.
Absolutely recommend and will use him again.

Chris and his team did a fantastic job removing garbage after my kitchen renovation project. We had piles of old cabinet boxes and drawers sitting in the living room after the project. In short notice, and after a quick chat/estimate, we got the space cleared up in the estimated time.

The price was very fair and the communication was smooth. Chris was also flexible to accommodate some unexpected issues on site. As a small business supporter myself, I was really happy with the work, and I'd definitely reach out to these guys for any removal work in future.

I've given these guys a glance for years and wondered how a store like this could exist where it does. It's because they're awesome. Friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging staff. HUGE selection of plants that are well taken care of. Even if I move elsewhere in the city, I'll still be making a yearly pilgrimage here.

I LOVE it here. I'm a novice when it comes to plants and I always ask 101 questions and they answer them all with a smile on their face. The prices are beyond great and they have pots of every color. Don't be fooled, they have indoor and outdoor plants!

Great spot; huge selection, quality plants.

Would 100% recommend.

Went here to hopefully find something for Mothers Day a week or two back. Don't know much besides plants are green. All staff there was very nice and knowledgeable and was able to walk out with 2 nice gift for mom and bought myself something too. Would recommend for anyone in the area, everything looked healthy and reasonably priced.

If I had a plant for every time I've been here, I'd have a lot less plants.. because I can never buy just one. Friendly staff, rotating stock, and they got that good good that my plants crave. The only negative thing I have to say is they wont let me put a bed in the middle of the store.

First time here yesterday. This place seems more geared towards outdoor gardens, but they still did have a nice variety of houseplants and decorations. I didn't buy anything yesterday but I'm going to go back for a cylindrical snake plant. They are the only place I've seen with this varients. I also saw a pitcher plant here for the first time in person!

For the purpose of context I'm visibly 8 months pregnant and denying pregnant woman and folks with medical conditions when an employee restroom exists is illegal in illinois ( Ally's Law: Restroom Access Act 2005)

I went to the farmers market today with the intent on buying a bunch of foliage to deck out my patio and at this point in most pregnancies you have to go pretty regularly. I asked an associate if I could use their restroom and they said they needed to check. At that point I had gotten really uncomfortable and the associate told me that they were told that they don't make exceptions. Normally I don't write negative reviews about places but it blew my mind that empathy and compassion couldn't be found here. I will say the associate was really nice and apologetic and told me to go to a nearby grocery store but the fact that an exception couldn't be made was disheartening and I'll just spread the word take my business elsewhere.

Gethsemane on Clark is amazing if you're looking for a similar garden center.

Would highly recommend this place. Awesome selection and super attentive, friendly, and helpful staff. A few of the staff helped me out, but Alicia especially answered tons of questions and spent a lot of time with me. I found a few large and small plants that I bought and got great advice for taking care of them.

I am not from Chicago, but this shop was recommended to me by a local friend, so I came by to check it out. I drove up, saw a sign pointing to parking, and pulled into the far back gate, when some men in the lot started hollering at me and waving at me, incoherently. I was told "no parking" here, which is confusing, because the gate was open and the big green sign outside the business is pointing right into the lot stating "PARKING"... A rather rude greeting from the men, making me feel as if I did something wrong, when I was just following signs. There was huge bags of trash all over the place and my car didn't make it far anyways, so my mistake was made apparent rather quickly.

I proceeded inside, and the shop was lovely enough. I was looking for a Raven ZZ, and was pointed to the back hallway where there stood one, extremely sad looking, $100+ Raven. For that price, the plant should at least look good, this thing was terrible looking! I was also sad to see only one of them, but I get they might not be available, so no worries there.

As I was checking out the smaller ZZ plants on the shelf against the wall, which looked great and were priced well, there was a huge commotion in the room directly behind me, that sounded like some women arguing loudly enough that I could hear exactly what they were saying, and was a huge deterrent to my shopping experience. It wasn't pleasantries by any means, but straight up arguing and yelling at each other, bordering on screaming at each other.

A really uncomfortable shopping experience. I promptly left the premise without buying anything.

The only redeeming factor was the kindness and warmth of the girl watering plants when I walked in. She was super friendly and chipper and was a nice cushion that softened the abrasiveness of the initial experience with parking, and the shouting in the back that made me walk out the door. Two stars for that girl, otherwise would have been a 1 star experience.

Very very organized and well run by incredibly helpful and nice folks. The social distancing guidelines are well in place. And as always, their selection is varied, healthy and beautiful. If you drive just be prepared to walk a few blocks being as their parking area is currently unavailable and street parking can be a bit challenging. But well worth the short walk and you can easily pick up your purchases curb side. (The guys in the pick up area are awesome). 👍👍👍

I look forward to spring every year because of this place! Everyone is very friendly and knowledgeable. They are a little expensive, but I think it is worth is because their products are either higher quality - like the balcony baskets which were more expensive but way sturdier than the ones at home depot - or the garden plants that are just "nicer" - or very unique.

They have unique art and houseplants you won't find at home depot and are my goto for nice gifts.
