They do all of the packing (if you choose this option) and they are really detail oriented. His wife was packing my kitchen and I thought I had moved out everything that needed to and quot;go with meand quot; and had left something in a drawer that obviously went with the house (a binder of stove/dishwasher manuals, etc) and instead of just blindly packing it, she left it for the new owners. This level of attention to detail is rare, in my opinion. I have heard of some movers packing bags of trash, etc. just whatever they see. This outfit knows what they are doing, and they are dedicated to your belongings. I have packed myself every time that I have moved, but since this time, my items are going to be stored for a year, and it was shorter notice, the amount of money it took to hire this part out was worth not running to Lowe's every 6 hours and quot;for another boxand quot; or yelling and quot;do you have the markerand quot; to your moving volunteers! Cliff and his family labelled my fragile stuff with large print, Fragile, and the movers did not break anything, or hit any walls. Win win. The movers pointed out a couple of things that had chips in it, to let me know the state of my furniture going into storage, which I already knew about, (furniture that was chipped years ago) which showed their honesty. I really appreciated this. My furniture has been guaranteed a climate controlled area for the next year, and I have high hopes that it will come out the same way it looked going in! Kudos to this hard working family business.
-Cliff came in and surveyed the general situation, mapping out which rooms would be moved out in what order.
Extra special attention was given to a family treasure of a desk that is 100+ years old. Also in that category were a pre-Civil war candle stick table and a 45and quot; spinet piano.
- It was very hot that day in late June, so we had plenty of bottled water for the movers, but they had brought their own as well! They are self-sufficient and never imposed on us.
- The movers worked in pairs in a very coordinated and organized team system.
- All told, the move took about eight hours to complete. And don't you know it, as soon as they were folding up the last blankets, it started to rain!
- Well done!
We think that God blessed us with finding and choosing Crabtree Family Moving, we hope that you do, too!
We hired Crabtree family Moving for our local move. They came out for a review of the house and what needed to be moved prior and gave us an estimate. On moving day, they showed up with a truck that was too small for the move and did not bring enough blankets to cover the furniture. Once the truck was full they started tossing furniture in the back of a pick up truck uncovered. We had them stop as we did not want our furniture damaged. Upon arrival of our goods at our new house, we found out that some of the furniture had been damaged, and the response from Cliff was denial that they did it. Even though he promised he would come back and fix the furniture. The furniture is still not fixed 2 months later, and Cliff will not return our calls.
Upon time for payment, Cliff insisted that they only accept cash, which he said in a and quot;smartand quot; response was in the e-mail he sent us. NO EMAIL WAS SENT PRIOR. When we did not have $1300 in cash sitting around he got extremely rude with us and we told him the only option he had for payment was check. So I wrote a check to Crabtree Family Moving. At this point he insisted that I wrote another check in his name.
Since this was a move that would be reimbursed by employer, we asked for an invoice that he said that he would send us that afternoon. After several follow up phone calls and emails, no invoice was ever generated.
I would definitely not recommend this company. They were unprofessional, unethical, and out right rude!
