  ** *** *** ****** ********** ***** We had a miserable experience with them on our recent move. To make a long story short, the lead member of the moving crew was unfortunately taken ill early on and could no longer work. TR made no effort to bring in a replacement. With the largely inexperienced crew now short-handed, the job ran way over the estimated hours and created conflict the other people who wanted to move in. ** **** *** ** **** *******, had to pitch in spending hours carrying boxes and other items out to the truck. In the end many of our possessions were strewn across front lawn, an embarrassing spectacle for the neighborhood. To cap it all, the remaining crew, with no experience in packing, were unable to get everything into the truck and had to wait for second truck to arrive. Clearly, the employee illness was nobody's fault but TR could have handled the out come much better. That was bad enough and then we got their invoice - 36% higher than the estimate ! We were being charged for all the additional hours and got no thanks or recognition for our efforts to help. Instead we were blamed for having more goods than estimated - despite their detailed pre-estimate walk-through when they were shown everything and the fact that we had actually disposed of several large items. After some heated exchanges, they reduced the invoice somewhat but still left us to pay well over the estimate. And finally, they charged our credit for the revised amount without even telling us. ** ******* ** *** *** ****** *********** (As a footnote, this is not to blame the crew members who worked very hard - the problem is with TR's sales and management team.)

On checking our records, we can confirm that the final charges were 10% over the initial estimate which is in accordance with our contract.

  Misleading information from the agent who came and did the quote. He said we could buy a tv box from them, or elsewhere, but the tv had to be in a box. He then told us that insurance would cover $60,000. End of conversation. We purchased insurance for $360, and when our TV arrived broken, our claim was denied because they did not pack it, So, if you don’t pay for them to do your packing, your out of luck if your property gets damaged. ****** ******** ******** I wouldn’t use them again ** ** *** *****
