  May H. wrote: Rude and unprofessional. Worst experience moving, ever. If you care to know why, read on. I referred Justin’s company “Me and My Red Truck” to someone who used him twice, and the second time I was not the payer but I was the only person present, facilitating the move and separating my things from my friend’s property, who was moving out of a shared storage unit that I own. Mistakes happen, and as Justin’s employees were moving my friend’s belongings onto their truck, they also moved some of my own things onto the truck no less than 18 times. I had to constantly take my property back off the truck, and hey I didn’t mind to, since I’m not trying to lose a bunch of property, so if the problem had stopped there, everything would have been fine. However, then Justin started ordering me around telling me to move not my own things, but instead he was giving me various orders about moving my friend’s belongings further out of the unit and down the hallway along with his crew as if I was one of his employees. His attitude was bad, and his tone was condescending. After exhausting myself for an hour, I realized I wasn’t the one being hired and paid to do this move, or to take orders from him. I politely reminded Justin that the purpose of me being there as the storage unit owner, was to simply let him inside the gate and to make sure my own property was being safely separated and kept at my storage unit, my job was not to be a mover, moving my friend’s things. He got instantly more rude to me and wouldn’t communicate with me at all for the rest of the move. When I messaged him later about the bad communication, giving him the benefit of the doubt that maybe my friend had caused the miscommunication by not making it clear how important it was to not only move their things, but for him to also make sure my belongings were put back where they were supposed to go into the main storage unit after separating everything - his response was “Huh?” And then he actually said “Oh yeah, I was talking to you like that cause you’re not the client, and I was just giving you tasks inside the storage unit to keep you off my truck.” Wow. If you have a problem with a customer taking their own property off of your truck, you need to clearly communicate “I can’t allow customers on the truck” and then you need to help them move it off the truck yourself. You don’t lie to them and try to distract them and try to put them to work doing the job that you’re being paid to do. Again, I was the one who booked him the job, and he was in my storage unit, handling my property. It’s also important to note that I was on his truck, back and forth, during a previous move and he never had a problem with it before. Apparently, if you’re “only” the storage unit owner this time around, or the helper, or just not the person who’s writing the check, Justin, the owner of this company, doesn’t know how to treat you with respect or show gratitude for the referral that was given to him. I won’t make the mistake of referring this company to anyone again.

  Good but low cost movers? Hey all, so I’m moving from my parents house in Cool Springs to Antioch in about a month and I wanted to know if anyone had any recommendations for good cheap movers? I only need to move a washing machine, dryer, and a couch, but my dad had rotator cuff surgery and won’t be able to help by then. I’d really appreciate any recommendations! The last few places have quoted me anywhere from $500-$800... Thank you!!

  Jennifer A. asked:

  Hi everyone! I need some referrals for movers. Please read all this so you know what I'm looking for.... I had a VERY bad experience with my move to Nashville. So I'm looking for movers who are: reliable, respectful of me and my things, budget friendly, and honest. The other thing is I need to move BOTH a one bedroom apartment and a storage unit. Everything is ending up at the same place. I'm fine having movers do the apartment and a handyman type service do the storage unit but I'm looking for the same qualities in both. I know it's going to cost more to go and pick things up from a storage unit (it's all already packed), but I'd like to move all this without it costing me an arm and a leg. Suggestions?

  After all of your warm welcome, I am now honored and delighted to officially live in Inglewood! And of course now I need your help and expertise... I just found two pretty dressers to solve our tiny closet delima, but obviously can't fit them in my car and can't do it alone. Can anyone recommend a good group that does little freight jobs like that? UHaul isn't really an option because although I am freakishly strong, I'd still need help to load them up. Any ideas? Thank you for your help in advance neighbors!
