Save yourself a LOT of money and hire a few teenagers that you personally know.
Total Moving sent me 3 teenagers and a 21 year old. There is NO way that these teenagers were trained (and the 21 year old should have been shadowing at least 2 VERY experienced movers, for a LONG time, before ever 'supervising' an inexperienced crew on his own).
What a joke. Except no one was laughing. These children were nice enough fellows, but they had barely any life experience; let alone were they capable of moving possessions, for their clients that worked hard for their property.
Unless you are planning on throwing away most of your furniture anyway, then save yourself the time and (lots) of MONEY.
And don't bother spending the time of labelling which rooms your boxes belong in, because many won't be put in the correct room, let alone on the correct floor.
REGARDLESS of which company you choose, TAKE PHOTOS of ALL of your furniture. This way, if you have to make a CLAIM, you can prove that the damages were caused by the so called 'professionals'.
***Upon making a complaint, management and the owner were nothing short of dismissive and rude. They took zero ownership for sending their inexperienced teenaged employees and the damages they caused***
And let's not forget the $800 plus tax, that I had to pay in overtime charges, because the children had no concept of time management and efficiency.
If I ever move again, I will first vet companies that specialize in moving pianos and antique furniture. Maybe companies that can care for items such as that, can treat furniture with respect...
