Additionally, I was quoted approximately $1,200 for the job. Once the movers arrived and assessed the project, I was told the actual cost would be nearly double.
Monet Sklaroff, Google
When we had agreed on a day and time, it came and went with no call. I reached out, they apologized and said they could DEFINITELY do the same time the following day
R M S, Google
When moving our items out of their storage unit, Rolando said it would cost $165 on moving day for someone to open the unit, otherwise they would not release our items. None of these fees were included in the contract.
