Flat rate was super expensive
Rushed and half of our items we have found were broken or reassembled with incorrect screws or just plain incorrectly and dangerously for our kids
We would recommend never using them

Tommy’s need to close their damn gate where they park their trucks on Grand Street near Columbus Park. They leave it open for their own convenience when out on jobs, blacking the sidewalk.
The city should do something about it, really.
Sabrina this is Tommy from the moving company. The gate get closed but the building has tenants that walk through during the day. I’m sure my guys pulled the truck out and did not shut the gate before but we share the gate with tennents. I thank you for your post and will share it with my team and also others. It is a major concern of mine and with parents pushing carriages it leaves little space and is dangerous.
