Tiffany Mack, Google
I was originally quoted between $1,130 and $1,220, but ended up paying over $1,500. I am also missing a gold lamp from my move.
Job was NOT done but the guys kept rushing... They clearly left a lot of boxes behind... Very unprofessional!
Crystal C, Google
Now that we are unloading the container, I see that a lot was put in carelessly and a lot is damaged. Many boxes are crushed.
