    I moved from H3332383838**343530H to ****************, **. on May 28, 2023 and used services of 2 College Brothers H3234393039**37**3731H Company. I packed many items by myself before their arrival. Had a count of 40 boxes packed and sealed by me and numbered as well with identification of areas as masterbedroom bath, kitchen, etc. Had the list with me and took pictures of them. I took pictures as well of my furniture items.Company total charge was going to be $5,014 for pick-up, H31**32**313530383033H and delivery to new place. This quantity was paid in full by **** ended up only needing 30 days of H31**32**313530383033H at their facility. The delivery date to new place was schedule for June 23, 2023 and it happened exactly that way.The main person in charge of all movers that came to deliver told me there was a small dresser that a leg got broken and they sent it to be fixed and I should have it the week after June 23, 2023.As I am unpacking, I noticed I'm not finding items that I remembered I packed and started getting a strange feeling. Sure enough, I went to the box's list I've made of boxes I packed myself and found boxes **** correctly. Next box is # ** marked by me. So in total I was missing 13 boxes!I started getting upset. Called them, and answers were vague. Finally they transfer me to their complaint department and I had a conversation with a lady. I explained to her that I noticed the truck had some boxes at the end of it before they left from my place the day of delivery and that since I hadn't start unpacking, wasn't aware I was going to miss so many boxes. She said only one customer's belongings per truck, so she was going to look into that.They refunded me only $630.00, which obviously doesn't cover my loss. Nothing to this day about my broken dresser. This company is unreliable to me. I want more $ remuneration and want to recover my dresser, even if it's broken. Some of these lost items were priceless to me.

    This company was absolutely fabulous!!!! The estimate was detailed, right on and came in under the time estimated. The company sent a lot of advise on how to make the move smooth, and how to keep the cost down. They were patient and answered the million questions I had. Very Professional and Efficient while being friendly. ***** did an exact estimate and ***** and crew on moving day were fantastic. There was no damage moving a 4 bedroom house. Highly recommend this company.
