YORK1
York1 offers a wide range of demolition, excavation, and waste services across southern Ontario, but reviews paint a starkly divided picture. Some customers praise individual staff like driver Devin for professionalism, yet the overwhelming majority report chronic billing chaos, aggressive collection calls despite auto-pay being active, and repeated charges on credit cards on file. Equally damaging are safety complaints spanning multiple locations and time periods: drivers racing through residential streets, speeding on highways, ignoring traffic rules, and nearly hitting pedestrians and other vehicles. On project work, the company has failed to honor damage-prevention promises (missing plywood protection, resulting in $2,400+ invoices and permanent driveway ruts) and refused accountability, hiding behind terms and conditions. Even basic operations fail: payment systems go down without notice, dispatch is unreachable, and promised ETA technology does not exist. The gap between what was promised (flat rates, no hidden fees, professional service) and what 55% of reviewers experienced (predatory billing, unsafe operations, poor communication) suggests systemic problems beyond isolated incidents. Best avoided unless willing to document everything in writing and expect multiple calls about allegedly unpaid bills.
