Many of my furniture items were chipped and scratched..They arrived here without a refrigerator dolly and damaged my refrigerator. The crew only had one funnizure dolly, or crab dolly so l allowed them to use mine. Because of the way in which they moved me, and the amages inciurred,, I was ovrecharged about $350 .Their methods of loading and unloading was inefficient and delayEd the move.. I am disappointed. I should have gone over to Home Depot and grabbed two guys. I now know for future service to use another service. I don't have time to go to small claims court, am restitution from you for $350. Additionally, the guy kept telling what you could not do and how this and that would not work and I go\t the household items in that place. I terribly disappointed with your service. Your service guys came illeqipped.and unprepared to do the job. I have been overcharged.

Mover's response:
Everything was done customer's way sense he wouldn't take professional opinion.Advice was given about possible damages and prolonging time and money but stubborn client REFUSE to listen! Full Heavy refrigerator! was moved without complained as customer refuse to empty it out. We DO NOT OVER CHARGE! it's only fair to pay additional $ for our efforts throughout 6 extra hours and no BRAKE! We highly recommend Home Depot Labor for this inhumane person but DO NOT recommend him to them!
