Attached is White Glove Moving Services response to Miss ************* complaint, thank you
We/White glove moving services Moved Ms. *********** from Albuquerque NM to Denver Colorado. We
moved ¼ of the household goods to an apartment, the rest of the household goods to a storage, and a
couple of household goods to her sons. I personally ****** ********/Owner) went on this move. Ms.
*********** Packed the entire home into boxes. White glove moving services wrapped and packed all the
furniture. We moved Ms. *********** from her home on **** ***** ****** ** *********** ** *****
to a storage located at **** **** ***** ** *********** ** *****. Ms. *********** was present at both
times, while watching us load the truck. Ms. *********** was told at the time we loaded the household
goods from her home that she had overpacked the boxes. A majority of the boxes exceeded 75 pounds
or more. The boxes were actually coming apart when we were loading them. Ms. *********** was
informed several times that day because the boxes were way overpacked. White glove moving services
had to re-pack several boxes because they were either to heavy or falling apart because of the weight.
When we arrived in Colorado, we unloaded the ¼ of the household goods at her apartment, set up the
beds and put boxes where she wanted them. While unloading at her apartment Ms. *********** was
shown the shape of the boxes because that some were damaged because they were over the weight
limit for what a box could hold. Ms. *********** responded by saying we had already shared that
information with her when we loaded in Albuquerque. Wasn’t worried about it at all. When we left her
apartment Ms. *********** Made several comments about how great our service was. I can't understand
why Ms. *********** never said a word to us about damage or anything else because she watched the
entire process. And like I stated many several comments about our service being great. Then arrived at
the storage unit and started to unload. Ms. *********** was there for the whole entire time separating
stuff she wanted us to take to her son's home. (We actually did her a favor and delivered the household
goods to her son's house. This was not in the contract) White Glove Moving Services always gives the
best customer service and always go's above and beyond. This can be verified by other customers.
When loading storage units, everything is more compact because the customer wants to make sure that
it all fits in 1 unit, so they don’t have to rent another one. It gets costly for the customer. White Glove
Moving Services has nothing to do with picking the storages or how much they cost. Boxes have to go on
top of the big furniture. Furniture cannot go on top of the boxes. Furniture weighs too much and would
crush anything that is in the boxes. Ms. *********** was there for the entire move. From when we loaded
in Albuquerque and took the household goods into storage in Albuquerque, to when we unloaded at her
apartment as well as when we unloaded at the storage, and unloaded at her sons. Ms. *********** was
generous enough to gives us a great tip and let us know how great of a job we did. White Glove Moving
Services did not move Ms. *********** from her apartment or from her storage into her final destination,
which was her house. Ms. *********** hired someone else to move her out of her apartment into her
home, as well as hired someone else to move her items out of storage into her home. Not sure if it was
a licensed company or not. Never discussed this with Ms. ***********. There were several of our movers
that were witnesses to the entire move. (***** ********* ******** ****** ******* ****** ***** ********* **** *******) White Glove Moving Services unfortunately does not take responsibility for any
of this damage being that there was another moving company that was involved that completed the
moving process. Keep in mind that this move was done at the beginning of August 2022. White Glove
Moving Services stands behind their service and is always willing to take responsibility for any damage
that might occur during the moving process. Sincerely White Glove Moving Services/***** ********Customer response

In response to my complaint made against White Glove Moving Services, LLC, I have a number of corrections to make responding to the inaccuracies and untruths made by ****** ********, the owner of the company.
Yes, I was present while White Glove Moving packed the truck at my home in Albuquerque. No, I was not watching them work. I was busy packing my personal belongings in the house. I was unaware they were not being careful or I would have immediately said something about their total disrespect for my belongings/furniture.
Yes, I did pack all my household items. NOT ONE box weighted anywhere near 75 pounds. Having packed each box myself, I made sure I was able to carry them. White Glove Moving DID NOT repack any boxes packed by me and not any of the boxes were coming apart. Mr. ******** remarked how well I had packed the boxes making their job so much easier.
It is important to note that NOT ONE of the boxes packed by me incurred any damage. My complaint speaks to the damage to my furniture that Mr. ******** and his crew personally loaded in the truck and then into the 2 storage units, first in Albuquerque and later in Denver. White Glove Moving and Storage arrived in a rental truck in Denver at 9:30 am, after traveling all night only to have to unload my belongings into 2 different locations, my apartment and a storage unit. They were working extremely fast to drop off the rental truck and make a 3:00 pm flight back to Albuquerque! Yes, I did give Mr. ******** and his crew a generous tip not realizing at the time the thousands of dollars of damage they did to my belongings.
I sent Mr. ******** a letter with photos of the damage done to my furniture that was moved into my apartment in August of 2022. He responded to me not to worry that he would take care of things. In October when I moved into my permanent home was when I realized the extent of the damage done to my remaining furniture. Per the request of the Denver moving company, I was present when they began taking my belongings out of the storage unit. They realized the furniture was not properly wrapped and placed haphazardly in the storage unit. They took the photos to protect themselves. Over 90% of my furnishings were scratched, gorged and 2 pieces completely destroyed. The moving company is a national company, licensed and insured and WILL TESTIFY on my behalf.
A second letter was sent to Mr. ******** listing each piece of furniture damaged, along with 60 photos attesting to the damage. After 7 phone calls to Mr. ******** that were not returned, I finally reached him and was told he was not responsible and to do what I had to do! Hence, I filed this complaint and have taken him to Small Claims Court.
I do not know if I am more disappointed in the damage to my furniture or having Mr. ******** show NO respect for me or for the things I value.
I am a single women and wonder if Mr. ******** would do this to a man?
