Karolyn Williams, Google
The packing portion went okay, but they did not pack everything and didn’t pack everything well. They broke my 70” tv beyond repair and didn’t say anything. I was charged double the estimate.
Rachael Green, Google
They left all the stuff I pulled out of my garage cabinets completely untouched and decided not to pack that too. AND they did the same thing with all three of my bathrooms, nothing was packed or moved.
jessie bailey, Google
I can’t tell you how many things are broken. They forgot all of my patio furniture, so my brother and I had to take a truck and go get it all.
