Nevertheless, none of them happened! I had to call back again, getting into a full mailbox once, and finally getting Adam to send me a confirmation email with a blank rate quote! On the day of moving, I had to call them a few times, each time the new guy on the line telling me that they had an issue with the helper who didn't come to work. This is after he confirmed initially that the truck with personnel is on its way and would hit my house in 30 minutes! The first mover showed up 2 hours late alone, giving me a surprise disclosure form to sign with different prices. I immediately told him that this is not the quote I received. He said "don't worry" they would honor the rate they gave you. The second mover finally showed up later, I noticed that the guy is not a mover and a painting helper! The quote mentioned that estimated time for a two bedroom move is 5-6 hours. The movers told me a few times that mine is a very easy one, because I don't have much furniture. As a matter of fact, I moved a lot of small stuff myself before then. The loading took almost 6 hours! I expressed my concern over significant lengthening and then they disclosed their other charges including a double mileage charge, cost of the covering and tape materials were never mentioned in their quote, neither verbally of in the email (see the email for yourself above). Finally after me complaining so much, they started to move faster and they finished the job in around 8.5 hours. I had to talk to the supervisor to correct the rate quote, which appeared higher on the bill as if they are not aware of each other's communication with customers! This was concluded with them rushing me to the bank to get cash, since they finally informed me that they only accept cash! For your own good, stay away from these guys. As a matter of fact, their website is already disabled! Any questions arr164@yahoo.com.
