Client Testimonial

Lindsey, Sr. Store Operations Manager, shared her positive experience with GoShare:
“We really like GoShare’s pricing and reporting capabilities. The feedback from our customers has been positive.”

“GoShare was such a great experience. I was out shopping at *Fortune 100 retailer* for my new home and I ended up picking out large pieces of furniture that were already put together and had no room to fit them in my SUV. I downloaded the GoShare app while shopping in the store, quickly created an account and set up an appointment in a matter of minutes. The gentleman quickly arrived to pick up my furniture and deliver the pieces back to my house all while I went on shopping at other stores. He was professional, friendly, handled my items with great care and I will definitely be using this service again in the future.” said Laura, a customer of the Fortune 100 retailer.
