They moved things out haphazardly. When our items returned from storage approximately 3 months later my TV was damaged. My newly laid vinyl plank flooring was also damaged.
R Ibrahim, Google
He told us it will take 8 hours to move our belongings. When the movers arrived, they had a smaller van and no boxes. It took them 2 days and 2 trips.
John Smith, Google
Customer service lady was very rude and aggravated when I tried to receive more information about storage. She even hung up the phone on me before I was finished asking about their options.
