Ivan, Jorge and Elvis were the team that handle our loading of the pod. This 3 individual’s were extremely professional and it was a pleasure to have them handling our move. If possible I will love to have them come to Venice, at the time of our in-loading sometime in late May to early June to do our un-loading. Thank you Sergio
