Do not be fooled by the low moving quote!
We were quoted $95/hr. The day of our move, the movers were almost 2 hours late! We were told the truck was down and they had to rent one. When they finally arrived, they moved things pretty quickly, but they were not careful. They began stacking multiple boxes on the dolly and failed to read the labels. It didn't matter if the box said ""fragile, glass or do not stack.""
When we arrived at our new place, I noticed that some things had been damaged. However, they failed to tell me that they had damaged my items. When I pointed out the damage to one of the movers, he told me ""Phil"" the other mover had damaged the items."" When I confronted Phil, he had an excuse for everything.
After the truck was unloaded, he quoted me a price that was more than double what Joe, the owner had quoted me. He tried to charge me for the rental of the truck, the time it took him to drive to my house and he tried to charge me for an additional hour. I reminded him that Joe told me the $95/hr included the use of the truck, two movers, gas and drive time. I called Joe while Phil was still there, but he didn't answer.
After telling Phil that he was trying to ""get over on us, he finally, said ""ok, I will take it"" [the agreed upon amount] and he left our home.
Joe never returned my call. When I spoke with him initially, he jokingly told me ""not to call him if there was a problem."" I laughed thinking he was joking, now I know he wasn't.
I would never use this company again. Also, if possible have someone present with you at the end of the move. These guys are sketchy, there is no telling what they could try.
