| - Our experience mirrors Dave W's. Inefficient. The phone people were great salespeople, convincing me that even though they were more expensive than most movers (you'd never know by the inexpensive-looking design on the trucks), they carried better insurance and showed up and had bonding for their employees.
The 3 guys arrived on time and the one leader guy was very pleasant and talkative. The other 2 didn't say much at all and seemed uncomfortable. They took a LOT of time wrapping stuff, and other stuff didn't get wrapped.
They drove the truck very carefully, I noticed.
They assumed that we were moving everything into our garage and not putting anything into the house. I thought that was odd. No, I wanted at least the beds in the bedrooms, but they didn't set anything up that they took apart. Even the beds were still apart. They just left it all for us to do, so hopefully we find all the screws, etc.
I have never had movers just dump our stuff off and be anxious to go. Since the move was already very pricey, plus it extended well past lunch, we just decided to do it ourselves and not mention "what about the setup?" Just be warned, that's not happening and they won't tell you in your pre-move letter.
