I would give this company negative stars if I could. I called them and asked if they could pick my stuff up on Saturday in Taylor TX and delivery it by Sunday or Monday (Aug 25) to Blue Springs MO and they promised me they could. After talking about what I had to haul they said it would be $3500. I told them that I couldnt afford that and they reduced it to $3000 if I would put a deposit down right now. This was two weeks before I needed them thereLater I got a call from the owner, Lucas, he went over my list of things to haul and adjusted my estimate to $3500 saying I had more than I had previously told them. I just answered their questions on what I did or did not have to move and my estimated number of boxes. He said it was in the contract (which I have requested several times and never received a copy) that they can change the price if I have not told them everything I have to move. Sounded pretty sketchy but I went with it. This person was extremely rude to me and said things that should have alerted me to the fact he was not really a professional businessperson but a scammer.On the day before they were supposed to show up a got a text message saying they would be there tomorrow (Sat Aug 23) between 10 and 2. They never showed up or called.The following day I got a call saying they would be there in 30 minutes (which would be around 8:30am) They did not show up until 6:00 pm! I kept calling trying to find out what was going on, but I would get run around answers. Now the movers finally showed up and the price to move jumped to over $10,000. I was in a terrible bind as I had to move that weekend and get back to MO. for work. So unfortunately, I went with it. The guys would only take cash (this is Sunday night after 6:00 remember) and they had just increased my cost my $4000 and wanted cash. We tried to Venmo them the money but Venmo had them blocked (imagine that). Finally my sister was able to go to WalMart and get 4 $1000 money orders to cover the cost. He also informed me that it would be another $3500 when they delivered it to MO. This made my move over $10,000. If I had known this was the cost I would have done it myself with some strong college boys and a U-haul. As they were packing up the truck I would have to remind them that we needed to keep working as it was getting very late. Then one of the movers picked up a storage cabinet I had and turned it upside down which caused blue ink to spill all over the carpet. He carried it outside like this so it left a blue trail from the bedroom to the front door. Even though we tried everything (after they left) to remove the ink, it would not come out costing me my $1000 deposit.So finally the movers pack everything up and leave. I tell them bye and I would see them in MO in two days. WRONG!!!!My furniture was not delivered to me in MO until Sept 16!!. I could not get the company to ever tell me why they held my furniture hostage or were they stealing my stuff? I don't know. They would never give me a clear answer just that they had up to 30 business days to deliver my stuff per their contract (they one they would never send me a copy of). In the contract, from what I could remember it said they had 30 days in case of emergencies. So far there had been no snowstorms, floods or hurricanes to be considered an emergency so I don't know why they held on to it for so long. Meanwhile I paid rent, electricity, internet, trash etc for two months on a home I could not move into because I had no furniture. When they finally decided to return my furniture, they did not even bother to call me and let me know. The driver called me at work around noon, and said he would be there between 4:30 and 6. He showed up at 7:00. I still have not had a call from the company. When the truck arrived I had to pay the additional $3500 to get my stuff. So all together my move cost me almost $10,000 plus the loss of my deposit, plus all the expenses I had to pay for a house I could not live in. I asked the driver where he picked up my stuff and he said around Dallas. Why did they take my stuff only halfway and leave it somewhere? Who knows where?So this "professional" company underestimated the cost of my move just to get me to sign up knowing that once they had me I would be in a bind and have to pay the extra. These people say they are professionals, but they can't get an estimate on a move even close to true cost. My original estimate was over $7000 off. If they were going to take 30 days why did they tell me they could do it in 2. If I had known it would take 30 days I would have planned differently and not have spent money on a place I couldn't live in. I also would not have been so angry.So if you don't want to spend 3 to 4 times what your estimate was and wait 30 days or so to get your items with little or no communication on what is going on with your entire life worth of stuff then don't ever ever ever hire this company.
