Holy shit! What an absolute Gong Show! Worst movers I've had.
I specifically ordered for an EMPTY 26ft moving truck ~1690 cu.ft. through SWIFT SHIFT VAN LINES, another bunch of chuckle-f**KS that ruined my day.
Arena Van Lines sends out two dudes at 11am with a truck that already has a load in it and only ~500cu.ft. of space. Then they proceed to tell me my move will be 2100cuft. And upquote me by $3000. I don't care. I ordered an EMPTY 26FT truck ~1690cu.ft., not for you to overestimate my property.
He proceeds to tell me that they'll wrap the furniture today and come back tomorrow and load it. Dude, I don't think so. This is a 1 day move.
He tells me "it's a heavy job". Yes, it's a job about moving people's furniture. And a 3bed-2.5bath, 2300sqft. Isn't THAT big of a job.
I moved everything in here 2 years ago without a moving company in a 26ft. Truck. And I've gotten rid of things since then.
After 1.5 hours of back and forth, finally get them to agree to ~1690 cu. Ft. And they leave for an hour to rent an empty truck from Uhaul. They start at 3:45pm....as of writing this, it's 9pm and they're less than half through.
One dude makes frequent trips to the truck empty handed. Sometimes he follows the other dude who is carrying a box....but he's still not holding anything.
