TRU Solar Cancellation Review: $450 DIY Exit Document Package

Overview

TRU Solar Cancellation offers a Solar Exit Document Package for $450 — a DIY kit designed to help homeowners navigate the solar contract exit process themselves. This is a document preparation service, not a law firm, legal advice service, or full-service exit company. The homeowner does all the work using the provided templates and guides.

In our editorial assessment, TRU's document package represents the most affordable structured exit resource we've reviewed. It fills a gap between free online information (which can be overwhelming and unorganized) and expensive attorney-led or full-service exit companies ($3,000-$7,500+). However, as a DIY product, results depend entirely on the homeowner's effort, their specific contract terms, and their solar company's responsiveness.

What's Included

Based on publicly available information, the Solar Exit Document Package includes:

• Cancellation and dispute letter templates customized to your contract type (lease, PPA, or loan) and state
• Step-by-step exit process guide walking you through each stage from contract review to resolution
• Escalator clause analysis worksheet to calculate your projected payment increases over time
• Complaint filing templates for your state attorney general, the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)
• State-specific legal reference guide covering your state's consumer protection laws, cooling-off periods, and solar-specific regulations
• Document checklist of everything to gather before beginning the exit process

Pricing

Who This Is Best For

• Homeowners who are comfortable managing the exit process themselves with structured guidance
• Budget-conscious homeowners who can't afford attorney-led services ($3,000-$7,500+)
• Homeowners in the early stages of exploring exit options who want to understand the process before committing to more expensive services
• Homeowners whose situation may not require legal intervention (e.g., straightforward buyout negotiation or cooling-off cancellation)

Who This Is NOT For

• Homeowners who need someone to negotiate with the solar company on their behalf — TRU does not do this
• Homeowners who believe they were victims of fraud and need legal representation — consult an attorney instead
• Homeowners who want a "done for you" service — this is a DIY product
• Homeowners involved in active litigation with their solar company

What We Liked

• Most affordable option: At $450, it's significantly less than attorney-led firms ($3,000-$7,500+) or full-service exit companies
• Transparent pricing: One flat fee published upfront — no vague "custom quote" or hidden charges
• Customized materials: Documents tailored to your specific contract type and state, not generic one-size-fits-all templates
• Comprehensive scope: Covers the full exit process from contract review through complaint filing — not just a single letter template
• Empowering approach: Teaches homeowners to understand their own contracts and rights rather than creating dependency on a service provider

Considerations & Limitations

• You do all the work: Sending letters, making phone calls, filing complaints, following up — it's all on you
• Results are not guaranteed: Success depends on your specific contract terms, state laws, solar company responsiveness, and your own effort
• Not a law firm: TRU does not provide legal advice, legal representation, or attorney services. If your situation requires legal action, you'll need to hire an attorney separately
• No direct negotiation: TRU does not contact your solar company on your behalf or negotiate on your behalf
• Newer company: Fewer publicly available reviews and track record compared to longer-established firms
• Ownership connection: Shares common ownership with this review site — factor this into your evaluation

Our Editorial Rating

The Bottom Line

TRU Solar Cancellation's Solar Exit Document Package fills a real gap in the market — it's the most affordable structured exit resource we've reviewed, with fully transparent pricing and materials customized to your specific situation. If you're comfortable managing the exit process yourself and want professional-quality templates and guides to follow, the $450 price point is, in our opinion, a strong value compared to the alternatives.

However, it's important to set realistic expectations. This is a DIY product. You will need to invest your own time and effort into sending letters, making calls, and following up. Results are not guaranteed and will vary based on your contract, state laws, and solar company. If your situation involves fraud, misrepresentation, or requires legal action, we recommend consulting with a qualified attorney instead of — or in addition to — using a document package.
