I recently worked with Brinks, and I am extremely pleased with my experience and would highly recommend them.
I contacted Brinks because my realtor recommended them to me. I was under contact to sell my house in Jersey City Heights, NJ, and had a 20-year decommissioned oil tank in the front of the house that needed to be removed prior to closing. I had no idea where to start, was extremely stressed out because of this, and after calling 3 companies to get quotes, including the original company that decommissioned the tank, I went with Brinks. Why?
Let me just say: everyone at Brinks was extremely helpful and diligent in their communication, procedures, and tank removal. They were communicative, honest, and gracious when I spoke with them, and that put me at ease. I live out of state, so this was very important to me. From acquiring permits, corresponding with the city (not an easy feat), scheduling the removal, testing the soil, disposing of the tank, creating the report for the city, and repairing the sidewalk, I had absolutely no worries in this stressful process and was very pleased.
