We were told by our representative (the owner's wife) that our moving crews (2 separate crews for 2 offices) would arrive that Thursday morning between 8 and 8:30. The first crew showed at 8:15 and started on that office right away. The second crew, which consisted of 4 men, who were responsible for breaking down several cubicles and loading pre-package and taped boxes, didn’t show till almost 9am. When our boss asked why they were late, a very young kid said, “we were at the main office at 8:15 and we had to drive here, you have to account for driving time”. \r
After hours of watching this crew goof around, banter & joke with each other, take an almost 2 hour lunch, attempt to put our cubicles back together even though they did not bring the right tools (admittedly), remind us regularly that they expected a cash tip at the end of the day, they did not leave till 7pm. We ended up moving furniture, helping put desks together, lifting boxes, holding elevators and guiding Get A Move On’s crew on which items needed to be brought in first and set up first. If we didn't take pictures of the cubicles they never would have been able to put them together.\r
Our bill was $1000 more than expected, the manager yelled and screamed that we better pay it when we called to complain, our desks were not put back together correctly and one of our staff members received a call from the police department who found one of his laptops and a printers in ""someones"" car, he didn't even know that it was missing.\r
I called Get A Move On’s office to let them know about our experience. It seemed that Get A Move On’s manager had not said a word to the owners or the office staff about our complaints. As I told the girl on the phone about what had happened and all the details of our horrific move, she seemed surprised, apologetic and assured me that she would be letting the owners know. She said that she fully expected they would call apologizing for their crew and our experience. It has been 4 days and we have never received a call.\r
This was the WORST moving experience that I have ever seen, I would NEVER recommend this company to ANYONE.
