I emailed the list to my service rep. On the day of the move, we carried the 16 boxes to our driveway. Pickup was scheduled for 1:00-5:00 pm.
At 4:30 I called to make sure I was still scheduled for pickup, and was told driver was running late. At 6:30, I called and was told it would be rescheduled for Monday. I told Transit Systems I worked so the driver came at 7:30 pm.
The driver was apologetic, his time depends on the previous customers being ready after all, and I was the last on the schedule. He couldn't have been more helpful, he drove a pallet out of his truck, organized the boxes on the pallet, we taped them together and away the boxes were loaded on the truck. He said they would be wrapped better before loaded on the truck to CA.
On the delivery end, my son got a phone call when the driver was 1 hour from his place, and he met the driver at the apartment.
We shipped 2 TVs, dishes and glassware - and everything arrived undamaged!!!
Was really skeptical about using this service, others said boxes were missing and damaged. But we had a very pleasant experience.

We ordered a living room set and bedroom set on January 20, 2014. These sets consisted of the following: two dressers, bed frame and headboard, split king size mattresses, reclining sofa, reclining love seat, and a reclining chair. On April 7, 2014, the following items arrived at our home: two dressers in DAMAGED condition, bed frame and headboard, split king size mattresses, reclining sofa in DAMAGED condition, reclining love seat in DAMAGED condition, and a reclining chair in DAMAGED condition. The bedroom set was discontinued so we had no alternative but to allow the dressers to be reconditioned. However, when I inquired, Doughty Furniture refused to offered any reimbursement for receiving reconditioned dressers. Doughty Furniture attempted deliveries on June 23, 2014, October 20, 2014 and December 08, 2014. At no time, was an undamaged reclining sofa delivered to our address. Nancy, at Customer Service, told me today that because we previously refused to accept a reconditioned living room set and because of their cost for the attempts, that Doughty Furniture will no longer attempt to deliver a new living room set, as ordered and paid for. Furthermore, when I advised Nancy that I discarded my old living room set because Nancy and the store manager promised to make us happy, she replied that it was not Doughty Furniture's problem. Furthermore, Nancy stated that Doughty Furniture will not offer any compensation for the inconveniences caused by the several failed delivery attempts. I believe that a reasonable person would agree with the following statement. Damages caused during shipping and/or while in possession of the retailer, should not have any adverse effect to the customer during the transaction. However, Doughty Furniture has attempted to intimidate us in accepting reconditioned products from the first failed delivery attempt on April 07, 2014. Furthermore, a professional company would attempt to identify the possible causes of a continuous problem in order to minimize its re-occurrence. However, when I requested a supervisor to be present for this reason at the time of delivery, the store manager refused. As a result of a purchase made on January 20, 2014 and Doughty Furniture's lack of professionalism, my wife and I will be spending the New Years holidays with no living room furniture."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nj/clayton/doughty%27s-furniture-and-mattress-reviews-3817862.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Deletemytrash.com","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"PA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Raymond K."},"reviewBody":"I used this service twice prior to joining Angie's List.

The basement service was good however the other jobs were horrible. The kitchen cabinet doors don't close properly. They didn't properly sand the floors. There were spots not polished.

Plymouth Nursery & Landscape Co. provides design and build services for projects such as landscape, hardscape, lighting, irrigation, drainage , water features , outdoor kitchens, pavilions, porches and more. After your project has been completed we offer complete maintenance services to protect your investment.
"We hired Plymouth Meeting Nursery to completely transform the exterior landscape of our 100+ year-old home, where we live with our three young children and our ever-faithful golden retriever. As a licensed landscape architect, we approached this project with high standards and were looking for a contractor who offered fair, transparent pricing, excellent craftsmanship, and timely execution. Plymouth Meeting Nursery delivered on all counts. The scope of work was extensive and included the demolition of all existing landscaping, a deck, concrete walkways, fencing, and excess soil. In its place, the team installed new fencing, a beautiful cedar pergola, repointed brickwork on our home, irrigation, a synthetic lawn alongside fresh sod and thoughtfully selected plantings, outdoor lighting, a stunning bluestone patio with brick steps and retaining wall, a brick and bluestone fireplace, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen featuring a grill, sink, ice maker, and refrigerator. The project spanned nearly five months, during which a few scope changes arose. Each one was handled professionally and flexibly by John and his team. Their commitment was clear: the crew showed up consistently and kept the momentum going, which we greatly appreciated. We couldn’t be more proud of the results and highly recommend Plymouth Meeting Nursery for your next outdoor project. They’ve helped us create a space that’s not only functional and beautiful—but truly feels like a new extension of home."

FAQs for sand and rock delivery projects in Fort Washington, PA
Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.
The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125, ranging between $50 and $200 per cutting, depending on yard size. Other cost factors include the shape of your lawn, accessibility, lawn health, type of grass, length of grass, and frequency of the mowing schedule. The cost to cut your grass will also vary depending on where you live. If your landscaper has to maneuver around obstacles or deal with hard to reach areas and steep slopes, this will likely increase your total mowing costs.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.
The cost of a paver patio is $3,800 for a 280-square-foot patio on average. Depending on the patio size, paver material, and design complexity, this cost can range from $2,400 to $7,000 or more.
The size of your patio is a significant factor in the project’s overall cost. If you're building a smaller patio of only 60 square feet, your costs will be closer to $480 to $1,500. If you want a more luxurious 900-square-foot patio, you'll spend closer to $7,200 to $22,500.
