The company went over the quoted time, left a garage full of stuff, and later I found the desk, doll houses and beds were broken.
Joel Futrell, Google
They damaged also every piece of furniture that they moved and they overcharged me. They offered me just shy of $150 for thousands of dollars worth of damaged property.

Lady on the phone was extremely rude and unprofessional.
