We moved from Arizona to Colorado and used Christian Brothers. They mostly just loaded the trucks as we did 95 of the packing. They ran out of blankets (used maybe 15 total!) so most of our furniture was not wrapped in blankets. We received damage on all wood furniture that we own. We have 3 sets of outdoor furniture which was in VERY good condition as was all of our household goods. It is no longer suitable to use. The finish on everything was scraped down to the bare metal. The coatings were baked on so they can not be repainted. A dresser had deep gouges in a 12 inch square - many deep scratches. They said pillows were on the dresser! One set of drawers had a hunk of wood taken out that was about 2 inches square. Damage was extensive. I do not recommend them for a long distance move. They sent a repair guy to do work for 2 hours. Not enough time for the extent of our damages.
