Signed a contract to deliver bedroom furniture (minimum load) for $1,200. All was well until they got my furniture. Felt like I was being held hostage. Very unprofessional. I gave them copies of my driver's license, my VISA and a form giving them permission to release the furniture to my sister. I informed them I would not be at the delivery point. "No Problem". But there was. The driver couldn't deliver until he got his final payment. I called the company, they wanted another copy of my driver's license and Visa card. I told them they already had a copy in my move folder, I was on the road in the middle of nowhere and I don't like copies of my personal info floating around. She backed down but e-mailed a form to fill out authorizing the final amount to be paid on my Visa. The form had personal information for another person filled in and I couldn't edit it. I immediately sent back an e-mailed asking if this was how my information was going to be used - even had the card's security code listed.
When the truck showed up at my house, driver couldn't make the turn. Demanded $1,000 cash from my sister?? It was a Sunday and no way I was falling for that. Driver asked me what to do. I told him that was his problem, not mine. I tried calling the office, but closed on Sunday. Long story short, he took my furniture to a warehouse. It cost me $550 to get it shuttled from there to my house, almost half the cost from Texas to WA.
Woman I talked to in the office google where I lived and said the truck couldn't make it. When I asked her why it wasn't googled first, she said she would be making changes. When I asked her about the company's handling of private information, again she would take care of that. When I called to complain about why my night stand was taken apart and not put back together, she'd investigate but of course I heard nothing back.
Pick another moving company, there are many to choose from and this business is just not worth taking a chance on.
