Wouldnt recommend

First let me say that the actual movers, that is the guys(2) who did the lifting, were very professional and experienced. BUT, I can't say the same for the owner. First, when I called to find out the charge, I was told that for $99 per hour I would have 3 guys...not bad I figured. I had a small place and shouldnt take 3 able bodies much more than couple hours. Well, the "third" guy was the owner who sat in the truck the entire time the others guys did the moving. At no time did he lift a finger so he should NOT be saying there are 3 guys for $99. So even though the 2 guys were good, it took longer than I thought. When the owner (finally) got out of the truck to collect the money, he had charged me $50 for 1/2 hour "travel time" (????) WTF ? they were 10 minutes from me !
(I have used other movers in the past that DO NOT charge for driving to and from !)...Then after I paid him, he asked me if I wanted to give the movers a tip !! I had given him $325 for less than 3 1/2 hours so I would hope he pays his guys enough that they dont NEED a tip ! They arent waitresses ! Would NOT recommend this company simply for these shady practices...
- Pros: The 2 guys that did the actual moving were good
- Cons: Misleading quote
