Used these guys in April 2009 to move from a house in Vienna, VA to a 3BR apartment in Germantown. Initial quote was roughly $600, but I wound up having my stuff held hostage while having to pay over $6000! These guys were horrible, and crooks to boot.
Granted, I messed up on my original estimate, and I had the equivalent of an extra room or so of stuff, so I expected to pay more (but not another $1k-$2k, which is what they charged me). Also, I asked them about 2 weeks prior to my move if they could help with packing, as I was traveling a LOT for my job at that time, and realized I might not be ready for them when they showed up. They said it was no problem, and that they could handle it. I expected to pay more for that as well, but again, not another $1k-$2k.
These guys showed up late, arriving with what appeared to be a bunch of day laborers; the owners of the company are Israeli and spoke Hebrew amongst each other (mostly on the phone), while the laborers all spoke Spanish (and almost NO English). So not only did I have a problem communicating with them, but so did the "manager". They had no tools, no boxes (they had to call and get boxes, for which I was charged nearly $1500).
While unpacking, I found $1500 suits used as packing material in a few boxes, and jammed into other boxes where they also packed wire hangers, resulting in pinholes in many of my suits that either ruined them or caused costly repair.
There are so many more negatives about what a horrible experience it was with these thieves, but I don't have the energy to relieve it. I only posted this because I am moving again, and have been asking around for recommendations of good, reputable movers; that brought back the memories of these guys, and I felt the need to warn others out there to stay WAY away from Omega! read more
