Do not use this moving company. They showed up to my apartment with someone else's stuff on their truck, and spent a half an hour on the phone with management because my 1 bedroom apartment was 'too much stuff' and it 'wouldn't fit in the truck'. They claimed they were told they were moving 3 items, when my confirmation and quote clearly state it was a full one-bedroom apartment move. I was moving from one high rise to another and both have strict elevator reservation times which the movers were aware of when we scheduled. Eventually the management office said they would just take two trips, and not charge me for the second trip with the truck. They wasted so much time on the phone and then trying to shove as much of my stuff onto the full truck as possible, the first trip took so long we did not even arrive to the new apartment until almost 5pm (my move was scheduled for 1pm). They did not come prepared, they did not have the wardrobe boxes for any of my clothes as the quote provided said they would. One of the movers did not even know how to wrap furniture to protect it. They were sloppy, unprofessional, and inefficient in every respect of the process.
They finally got the first truck load to my new apartment and began to unload. Then they took 45 minutes to drive the 1.5 miles back to the old apartment for the second load of stuff. I ultimately got charged a fee by my new building for going past my elevator reservation time, something that would not have happened if the movers had showed up prepared, on time, and didn't need to take two trips. They also charged for 5 HOURS of moving time at over $700, left at 8pm, with my bedframe still in pieces and my entire apartment in disarray. There is no reason my move should have taken that long; a 1 bedroom apartment and under 2 mile move was quoted at and should have taken a maximum of 3 hours (and it did the last 2 times I moved with the same amount of stuff and same distance, and used New City Moving who are fantastic but were unavailable this time). It only took that long because they were inexperienced, inefficient, and had to shove all of my stuff onto an already full truck. Not only that, but they also ruined 4 pieces of furniture, with scratches all over a bookcase, scratched and dented two end tables, and broke a glass table topper, because they tried to shove so much stuff onto the already full truck they took no care of my stuff and did not wrap my furniture properly. They actually tried to just not bring me the glass topper at all because they knew they broke it, and took another 15 minutes to "go find it" then tried to hide the chip they made in the glass when they brought it in.
After a full month of back and forth and calling management almost daily, I eventually got a small refund from them, but it did not nearly cover the cost of the excess hours they charged, the fee I was charged for their inefficiency, or enough to replace the 4 pieces of furniture they destroyed. I am not looking for further compensation I am just warning all future users of the risks of using this company. If you have a whole day to waste and want to buy all new furniture, go ahead and use this company. Otherwise, I strongly suggest you look elsewhere. read more
