False advertisement. First of all they showed up in an old Hamilton Spectator Truck, which clearly would not pass any mechanical test. All 3 movers were rude. The driver (guy in charge) swore regularily. I was told that I would need to give a $300.00 deposit.
The charge was to be 65.00/hour for 3 drivers. Plus klms. I clocked the klms at 8 from the storage space to my home. I was charged for 42 klms at 3.00/klms. What they had to move was a couch, love seat, dining room table and a bed. Very simple move.
They told me because I was paying "cash" they would give me a good deal. I figured at most the bill would be $180.00 for 2 hours and klms. What they did was drag time on, then left my couch in the hallway of the apartment saying they could not do it!!
The final charge for this disaster was $391.00. This is because they also tacked on one hour travelling time??? They filled in this information at the end of the move when I was left sitting there by myself with a couch and no more money. To summarize a 8klms trip cost $126.00, when the poor person before me would have paid the klms as well to their next trip... then they did a two hour job that sould have taken one hour, and charged me for an extra hour travelling time??? Not indicated. They then took off with my $$$ . I plan to report this to Better Business Bureau and as many local newspapers as possible. Beware!!!
