Based on the previous reviews, called. My quote was not a fixed price ... In actuality, the additional charge was $100.
Brianna Mills, Google
Roy was very communicative between scheduling and moving. This furniture did NOT survive the move this time, and now I'm left with hundreds of dollars in repairs for a dresser that was damaged.
Stephanie B., Yelp
I loved speaking with the owner but the actual movers knocked up the doors pretty good...
