They broke furniture, put a hole in a wall, damaged the lawn, and rushed the unloading. My claims were difficult, and the furniture was never repaired.

The crew took frequent breaks, moved slowly, left beverage containers and garbage, and charged for time spent waiting. Only one mover worked at a decent pace.
