I'm very sad this poor review is necessary; I really wanted this to work out. But, I too, had a…read moresimilar experience as Cheryl and Mario.
Charles the owner and his crew are super nice guys. They're awesome. I loved the idea of supporting a young local company working their butts off. And, that they did. They worked hard; it was a long day. But, if you're move is emptying a storage unit, or office equipment, or any space other than a household I'd say these are your guys. Strong, funny, relentlessly hard working, great attitude and commitment. What they are not is competent. If you want them to get near your household furniture and goods, I'm suggesting you find another company. My move did not go smoothly. In the end all of my items did eventually reach my new place but not in the first shot, nor on the same day. In a series of frustrating understandings/mistake what you agree to at one point in the day will not be what happens at another point in the day. All agreements seem to be fluid. When you ask, "what happened?" there's always a "well, such and such came up." Transparently obvious and behind every reason is: poor planning. Whatever Charles' crew thought would work, didn't work. To Charles' defense he did rely on information he received from his crew when he was off site, but the responsibility is still his to accept the crew's misinformation when it doesn't pan out. So, I get it, these are just things that happen and I'm still all for this small company. Our flat agreement of a rate got tossed in the trash; he's gonna pass on his financial errors to me. I say, "no, but I'll split it with you." What am I gonna do?; they still have a truckload of my stuff. I'm from the Midwest where a handshake and agreement is a rock solid bond, anything that's my fault is mine to eat. I'm a freelancer, too. If I misquote, or grossly underestimate, I do not go back to my client. That being said, now I want to mention the household. I have one mid-century piece that I pointed out that I wanted securely blanketed and taken care of and Charles showed up to personally wrap it himself. It travelled well and was unharmed. But then, Charles left. I discussed with his crew a couple of other vintage pieces to be packing-blanket wrapped, also. An Oak filing cabinet, a 1989 Stickley chair and stool, and a 150-year old Shaker rocking chair. They wrapped the filing cabinet and the Stickley chair. 2 out of 4. I watched the rocking chair come off the truck unwrapped at my new place and looked it over - it had one gouge but I wasn't sure if that was there before. Things stacked in the new space and got deep. It was about 11:00 pm and the crew still had a 3 hour drive back, so I did everything I could to tip them and get them on their way. I trusted that they would have told me if anything had been broken. That trust was a mistake. It was about 2 or 3 days later, getting through the stack, when I picked up the Stickley stool. It was broken. Google Stickley furniture and note the price and then note the build. They're built like tanks. I cannot possibly fathom what kind of force it would take to break that stool inside the truck.(see photo) When I asked Charles what he wanted to do about it, he texted, "...the movers confirmed it wasnt done by them and they confirmed before they left." Charles was lied to. Whoever took that stool off the truck made sure it was buried and not to be discovered until later. Charles has offered me $40 to repair the $700 stool. And, I agree with him, it can probably be repaired, but that's not how vintage stays vintage and retains it's worth. This isn't a stool from Ikea. This is an heirloom; it can only be sent back to Stickley to be repaired and that's gonna cost a fortune.
I am the third reviewer to point out that Charles does not accept responsibility for his or his crew's errors. He's convinced he does, but, he doesn't. By offering $40 he can sleep at night believing that's integrity and stepping up - it's not. If Charles wishes to do households he should be able to look over a room and spot the Stickley, spot the Shaker, spot the mid-century, spot a real oriental rug, spot the maple and the oak, and tell the difference between Ikea and Henredon. He should be teaching his crew, too. In my experience, he does not have that knack.
Now, if you think that I got what I paid for you'd be wrong. Charles' quote was in the range of all the others. I wanted to support him as a small, local business. And, again, I really liked the guy. I specifically said to him when we reviewed all my stuff, that I don't care about the money, I care about the items, so do it right. We agreed to a price and that was that. We both lost, but only one of us is culpable. I cannot recommend Logic for households.
