Ask me my opinion of H.W. Johnson ...
Amounts above are estimates. Origin Info Destination Info Quoted Price Actual Price Review Title Review Ask me my opinion of H.W. Johnson Moving Co. *FACT: Husband called at least 3X to verify all that the original quote included, # of boxes & we were promised better qlty. of bxs than we could buy from Home Depot & U-Haul store, # packers #movers, # hours, etc. *FACT: WE requested approx 8 sets of shelves be dismantled then reassembled @new house, owner said it would add to the quote. He gave us the price & said he would add an extra man for Packing Day & 1 extra man for delivery on Day 2. He asked if we could pack the 2 tool shelves but I didn’t get that done. Instead I weeded out over 80 bxs of teaching supplies, craft supplies, photos, college courses, & accumulated items from 45+ years of marriage. *FACT: Day 1 was estimated @ 8hrs w/ 2-3 men. Only 2 came & they ran out of bxs by the end of the morning. They did not bring even HALF of the bxs quoted. Why not & why didn’t these men have the office bring the rest over??! They left & nothing more was done. *FACT: Day 2: according to memory, EXPECTED WERE: 2 box trucks, 6 men & 1 add’l man for shelves (Owner), add’l boxes. When they arrived, we were told they were short 1 man who called off, & another man who never showed up. They filled wardrobe bxs with stuff but NO PACKING PROTECTION. Many little things arrived broken: Examples- hard plastic vegetable tray cracked under weight of heavier items on top, broken jewelry box, 1 fancy glass vases broke=placed in same box with misc kitchen items, most bases from shelves were missing & were not assembled @new home. *FACT: Upon delivery I was supposed to sit In the entry and direct where bxs were to go but also had men unloading to the garage with contents clearly marked by me on the top & bx side where to be placed. I TOOK PICTURES afterwards showing the about 45 boxes marked for STORAGE (From basement/To basement) More bxs were marked for specific rooms but piled in the garage. **MOST AGGRAVATING FACT OF DAY 2: movers brought things in boxes & oversized black trash bags! They actually filled those bags with our belongings! We paid them to protect, pack, transport, & properly place items w/in the new home. It wasn’t until after they left that I went to the basement. They literally piled boxes & bags & furniture from floor to the air vents hanging from the ceiling! It was like a poorly constructed Jenga pile. Big bxs on top of little ones, boxes on top of bags, laundry baskets on top of bags, bags on top of toys on top of box — which, upon opening, had a broken Bodhran. (Irish drum) there were other things damaged or broken b/c of the irresponsibly placed belongings. It’s been over 8 months & we still can’t deal with the mess H.W. JOHNSON left us. ***THE LAST ST
