The move seemed to go well at first until I looked at how the truck was loaded to barely 50% capacity, that meant twice the trips and more labor hours. Yes I have a lot of good wood furniture which should have been wrapped in moving blankets individually, they were only half wrapped and by some miracle mostly unharmed. The owner/lead mover claimed a misunderstanding. They arrived with no tape, used all of mine, did not replace it. I had to coach them throughout the day.
What was really annoying, I had a 24 pack of water [largest size] for them, each would drink 4 swallows then toss the bottle somewhere in the room. basically wasted most of the water provided then did not understand why there wasn't any more at the new place Or at the end of the day.
I explained I have a disability, my back, yet there wasn't consideration for this, good talk yet no real care about it. yes my back was locked up for the entire week after the move due to my helping them move, being on my feet way too long. They wanted to end the job, come back the next day for more hours. When I said no, pleaded with them to finish the job, they did so. It became drop and run to fInish the move.
The second bedroom king bed, collapsed when I touched it, after they left of course. It is a standard metal frame, how difficult is that?
I had everything boxed and ready, yet this was the most disorganized move I have ever experienced.
I would recommend them for small jobs and very short moves; not a full house move. They worked hard yet not smart. I would love to say more nice things yet I cannot.
My tip/bonus I gave them seems unearned in hindsight since my bed collapsed and I found many boxes in Rooms that didn't belong. A big box of clothes in the garage. It took 6 trips to unload it.
Each box was marked, for example living room or master bedroom. With my back disability I am pushing boxes around the house, which I shouldn't be doing.
I am going to have to hire another to put my bed back together, restack boxes I cannot move. read more
