Report
Had 3 people to assist with recent move and 1 seriously couldn't keep up. I'm double their age and had to assist with move to complete in a timely matter given 2 were not in shape to be doing this job. Itemed were dropped during move, which luckily were not breakable. Boxes marked as fragile had heavy boxes stacked on them. Didn't follow Covid-19 guidelines during move as website stated would be followed with none of the movers wearing masks. Had used previously in 2020 without complaints, but have told multiple people to steer clear when they have inquired about movers to use.
To top it off, they damaged all my furniture that I paid to put in their storage when paying top dollar to have it protected with reimbursement that won't even buy me a new chair for the table and chairs they damaged. They deny that the items were damaged in their care when this was the first time they were moved since purchased. Horrible customer service, horrible business that will not stand by their services or agreements.

Texted multiple times to book, no response. Called and booked my move one month out. They said they'd call the day before to confirm. I checked in the day before myself to confirm and Sandra (not Moses, wrong name) said their license was suspended and they could not perform my move THE DAY BEFORE. I have text proof and a visual voicemail as proof. Only because I reached out. I heard NOTHING from them. Can't trust them to communicate or even confirm an appointment. And they offered no alternatives and didn't call back after that. Unprofessional and unreliable.

Used Skyline for a quick in town move of some big items. The team they sent out was very polite and moved fast!

Extremely disappointed in the quality of the crew. So many things broken, and missing. If I could give 0 stars I would. Stay clear of these crooks.
