THIS FACILITY IS A RIP OFF! THEY'RE TRYING TO OVER CHARGE ME BY $3700. CHARGED ME 2K A MONTH FOR STORAGE, USED MY CREDIT CARD WITH OUT PRIOR AUTHORIZATION. THE LOCATION MANAGER WONT CALL ME BACK. I SAY A ZERO IS STILL TO GOOD. THEY DELEAT ALL.ALL.POSTS.

This company stole our $300 AC unit and destroyed over $1,000 worth of our belongings. Ernie and his crew did not indicate that I should be present to inventory either the load up or the unload. Either during their "lunch break" when they took the truck with our belongings somewhere for an hour, or during the two days they kept our things at their storage, someone stole our $300 AC unit from off the truck (the lady who first came to our house told us that her son was looking to buy one.coincidence?), and since it hadn't been included on the inventory list (how was I supposed to notice with over 250 other registered items?) they didn't have to pay our claim. When we finally unpacked our things we noticed they had damaged over $1,000 worth of our furniture, dishes, and other belongings. These guys are absolute CROOKS and THIEVES! Avoid at all costs!

This company is the best moving company I have ever used. The driver loaded our 20,000 pounds out of San Diego and delivered us on time in Tucson. Crew was extremely professional and best of all, there was no damage to our help belongings. I highly recommend this company.

If zero stars was an option that's what they would get. I used allied/Citizens to move me out of state this year and they damaged many of my items to include a cherry wood sleigh bed. I have moved many times working directly with the military and never have I had such a bad experience when trying to get my items repaired. They made NO effort to help and that includes the owner who out of frustration I sent an email to for assistance after months of getting no help from his employees.

I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone who has to move. Their lack of customer service after they have been paid is ridiculous! WORST moving experience ever and apparently the owner is too busy lining his pockets to care out unhappy customers since he hasn't responded to my email sent over two months ago. I can see where the poor customer service stems from-straight from the top.
