I ws given a quote by Tom from simply moving of approximatly $1200 to move my four bedroom house. The movers showed up (supposed to be four but five showed up so they could charge an extra $20 an hour). They then looked through my house and started writing a quote. I had everything packed in boxes and tv's wrapped with bubble wrap. They told me it would cost $4000. Approximatly $900 worth of packing materials. Apparantly many of my boxes were too small and I had to buy their big boxes to have them placed in. I do not have $4000 so I was very confused. I called Tom to see what was going on and he quickly started blaming me saying I should of given an exact inventory of my house. Now, it is only me and my wife so none of the other rooms were full other then the master. We did not have that much stuff (one couch, one love seat, two tvs, a dining room table and 3 beds). Everything else was boxes. After much arguing with the movers who continually spoke in Russian to one anther so I couldn't tell what they were saying I sent them home. THen I find out that not only do I lose my $180 deposit but three more hours to reach the minimum job. I lost $500 to these crooks. How can someone give a quote of $1200 then try to charge $4000. They know they have you by the b@lls since moving is time sensitive and they force you into using them. I may have lost $500 to simply moving but I am so glad I gave my money to an honest company. I will try to find as many review sites as I can to keep people from using Simply Moving.
