I am giving only 1 star, because of their amazingly rude, arrogant and irresponsible employees. Well, their website explains really well about container (they call it relo-cube), moving process, and their policies. and when i first called the 800 number, customer svc rep was kind, the process was easy, and i didn't have anything to complaint..
HOWEVER... on the day that i was supposed to receive an empty relo-cube, they were 3 hours late.. i had to call 3 times to track where the driver was..
And when the driver finally arrived.. he did not apologize at all, and he said "hey, i didn't bring the papers. you have a computer at home, right? why don't you go upstairs and print out 2 copies of contracts for me. ok?"
what the..?? i have no problem doing that, but is that the right way to ask? he didn't even seem sorry for the late arrival. Well, anyway i got the paperwork, and came down... and guess what..
he was trying to park the relo-cube on the street, where the sign says only 2 hours parking is allowed.. So i stopped him and explained, "i'm sorry but you can't put it here. i will get a parking ticket. I have a spot reserved inside our apartment parking garage.. can you please put that in there?" ...
and he said "No we can't, because relo-cube is too high to go through the garage gate. Look at all these cars~! they are all parked here on the street~! we can park this cube here, too!"
well, i understand that the gate is not high enough, but didn't i just explained him that this street is only for 2 hour daily parking? It says clearly on the sign, and we were both looking at it, and he still says that?
So i asked him again, "oh i see.. but anyway you can't park the cube here.. LA city is very strict on the parking regulation.. this street is only good for 2 hours daily. Do you have any equipment to lay the container down so it can go under the garage door? Also I don't feel safe to leave the container outside on the street.."
then he replied SO RUDLY, "No we don't have that kind of equipment, and it is not possible~! i'll go now. i'm busy." and he added, "it's a common sense~! you should have known that this cube won't go thru your garage gate~! it is a common sense~" so i don't even have a common sense..?
The rep who took the order in the first place, should have told me that i have to check if the garage gate is higher than their cube height.. I didn't even think something like this could happen.. it was my first time to use moving container..!
So, i replied... "OK, then just tell me... how do other people do? Do they all put their containers on the street like this? you know, usually apartment complex parking gate is not that high.. then what do you normally do? just put it anywhere like this and go?" i was merely just asking.. because i was really curious..!
and he goes.. "you get smart with me, then just do whatever you want! i am leaving now."
What the... i can understand that it doesn't go under the gate, etc... but INSTEAD OF EXPLAINING IT TO ME NICELY... HIS ATTITUDE WAS SO ARROGANT AND IRRESPONSIBLE, "WHATEVER, I DON'T CARE"..ATTITUDE.
I WAS EXTREMELY OFFENDED, AND I EVEN TALKED TO HIS MANAGER LATER, BUT HE WAS NOT THAT KIND EITHER. THE MANAGER KEPT SAYING "WELL I DON'T KNOW.. I DON'T KNOW.."
finally we found a street that didn't have any time limitations.. so luckily we could park the container there. but it doesn't end here... They didn't even bring the LOCKS for the container.. they said i can buy the lock from local locksmith... I thought the locks were incldued in the fee.. but the driver said, i should have ordered the locks when i first made an order. the rep didn't even ask me if i needed a lock..!!
later on, the driver apologized to me, (becuase i talked to his manager..) but i still think this is not the way to treat his customer. phew.. what a day.
I WILL NEVER EVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ANYONE EVER..!!!! read more
