Review content:
I recently contracted to have a rental truck loaded in Seattle and unloaded in Sacramento. The Seattle Movers damaged two antique furniture pieces; a cedar chest and an antique dresser. Both were pushed on their wheels into door jams and legs were torn off. I was able to repair the dresser, but I do not have wood clamps long enough to repair the cedar chest. The is a family heirloom, made by my great uncle for my Grandmother. I will either have to purchase 4 Foot wood champs or have the piece professionally repaired. Other than that the load arrived in Sacramento without problem. None of the other property had shifted causing any damage. \r
\r
Fast Forward to Monday Presidents Day when we were to unload.\r
\r
Their crew arrived 45 minutes late. I called to see if they were even still going to show up. When they arrived, the driver immediately started a rant about not having a place to park and demanded I ask the apartment management where he could park. The office was closed on Presidents Day so I couldn't. \r
\r
There is a large municipal parking lot just north of the park across the street from the complex. Cheap at $10/day and both my girlfriend and I offered to pay for it. Please note because it was Presidents Day, the lot was half empty. Their driver said that wasn't an option.\r
\r
Then, as I pointed out to their driver and as pictures taken on my girlfriends phone clearly showed:\r
\r
Behind the complex, there was ample parking on the street, i.e. a number of places where there were two contiguous spaces able to handle a truck.\r
\r
Nothing we suggested would work for him! Is it really their policy as a residential moving company not to park anywhere but in a commercial loading zone? That was what we were told. How many homes are able to accomodate that? Please note I had been parking a 20 Foot UHaul in the Street both in Sacramento and in Seattle for days without a problem.\r
\r
In any case, after about a half hour of trying to come up with a solution, he snidely blew us off and left. \r
\r
Shortly after their driver left, we discovered that there was a large commercial loading zone behind the complex just across and down the street a bit that they could have used. Had they driven around the block even once to look they would have seen all of these options.\r
\r
It was obvious to us that they were just done working for the day when they arrived. \r
\r
I called and spoke to the Supervisor after they left. By then it was 3:30 in the afternoon on a holiday and I was not able to arrange for another moving crew from Starving Students or anyone else. Shawn and I finally agreed he would provide me another crew the following day. Frankly, I can't believe they employ drivers with such an unprofessional attitude and work ethic. \r
\r
This unnecessary delay has been expensive for me:\r
\r
Extra day for the UHaul $40 plus tax.\r
Change of return airline departure $75.00\r
Extra day of boarding dog $25.00\r
Lost day of work $150.00 plus lost commissions\r
Furniture Repair $Yet Unknown\r
\r
I emailed this information to their customer service group with no response!\r
\r
Don't use them!!!
