As above this was the worst move I have ever had. Do not hire a moving company without checking references and then calling the references. Don't hire a local mover just because you think they will be more personal. I would go with a large moving company that has a good name and also has references that you can check out. For example United.
Description of Work: The company gave a much lower estimate. They told me that it would just take one truck. It took 3 small trucks so they could charge me for 3 trucks instead of one large one. They mixed indoor and outdoor items together. They also took one day to load and unload , which was done at midnight.This should have been at least a 2 day move. They never had the correct tools, they were back and forth to the office for correct tools all day long. They did not put beds together for me, even when I tried to help them by taking th beds apart for them and I kept all parts attached to the beds to make it easy. They overcharged also, I would never hire them again or recommend them to ANYONE. This was a terrible move.

Terrible. Go with a reliable moving company. I made the mistake in going with a local home town moving company. They knew exactly what I had from the estimate they gave me. They lied and said I added furniture. They should have loaded one day and delivered the next day. Instead they delivered my items in the dark around midnight. As I stated above, they used 3 trucks and everything was mixed up, furniture and garage items. VERY BAD MOVE.
Description of Work: They overcharged compared to estimate. Made several trips to get correct tools. Took many breaks and brought family members over for lunch breaks. They used 3 trucks instead of 1 truck. Very unprofessional. I would never recommend them to anyone. They had furniture and garage items all mixed up on the 3 trucks that they used. VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER

The day of the move, I called to verify the amount discussed and was told that if that was what was said, that was what it would be. I gave instructions as to what I wanted moved, in the house and the garage, and was told I could just go to the new home and they would be there. Upon them moving the items in my home, I discovered many deep scratches on the window of my front loader dryer, the side of my dryer and then came the final bill that was $196 more than discussed; at this time was handed an unsigned contact of their charges and conditions.. I did call to find out why but was told that we would take care of this after the holiday. I could never reach anyone but an answering machine or voice mail and had no return call. After many attempts, I had to send a certified letter and then file charges in small claims court. The one call that I finally was able to reach their office, it was one of the worst and unprofessional experiences. The language was so horrible and excuses were unacceptable and then she hung the phone up on me. That was when I filed the charges. As for the contract, I was very surprised as to this. It states that they are not responsible for any damages to your possessions, and if there is truly major damage, they will only pay 60 cents per pound. They also will offer to move boxes you pack, do not let them!!! This contract states they are not responsible for anything that goes wrong with what you pack that they move. They also stated in court that they charged me for the time that they folded their blankets and driving time home. Also, they do not move appliances or heavy items with appliance dollies...they use lug straps. Also moving my dryer they did not use shrink wrap to protect it, they claimed they could not. In hindsite....Sears had the wrap protecting it and had no problem moving it in, why could it not be moved out as such? If anyone would be wanting to hire this company, I would have witnesses with them as to what is being said, I would have a signed contract but one that would cover any damage by this company and they would be responsible for damage, I would also make sure that they are charging for legimate/valid charges....and also record any and all conversations between both parties. As for recommending this company, I would have to say find someone or anyone else to do a qualified job.
Description of Work: They were to move my household, the larger furniture, appliances, and several items in my garage. We had a walk through appoximately two weeks before my move. There was no contract discussed, only a verbal amount of $600 for the work to be completed. I was told that they would also move all boxes packed and clothing, for the same charge.

cc As mentioned above, this was the worst move I have ever had. Very unprofessional.
Description of Work: This company gave me an estimate of around $ 2500.00. They told me it would take one truck and it actually took 3 trucks. They piddled around and had extra people that were not very professional. This move should have been done in 2 days instead of one day. It should have been loaded on one day and delivered the next day. They sent a driver to collect the check for the move which was double in the estimate. The packing was handled terrible. I had the house and garage items mixed up in all three trucks. Naturally it took longer to unload this way. I would not reccomend this company to anyone. Disatisfied customer

Terrible. Please see above.
Description of Work: Field Brothers packed, stored, and moved us from our home in West Union, IA to Guttenberg, IA. Packing was horrible, as they ran out of clothes hanging boxes, so clothes and items were just thrown into the bottom of boxes. They packed drain cleaners in with other items that spilled over other things and ruined them. Thiongs were not packed according to rooms, as they mixed bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom items in the same box, and did this throughout the house with different rooms. We were missing items after they moved us in, so we called, and they made us feel like liers. Weeks later, the items we listed as missing, plus other items we hadn't realized were missing, were just dropped off in our open garage without anyone stopping and talking to us. Beware to not pay them in advance, and wait until all things are settled before paying if you do decide to use them. We were lucky enough that they did not endorse our last check payment and we were able to stop payment on the check to get things resolved. We went through numerous harassing phone calls before we were able to settle with them. They'll tell you they are good ole Catholic boys - make sure you get it on paper!!
