Anyone considering using a moving company should not be discouraged from doing so, in the good chance that the move will fall onto the ward members.

My family is moving cross country, I've been bombarded with tons of quotes

Don't hire one. Chances are you will be disappointed. Go with ABF instead

I've tried that. They are by far the most expensive quote I've been given.

This is truth. Horrible industry. Hard to go after them.

Yep. The problem is the regulation and the fact that you can't litigate

Yours is one of the only horror stories I've ever heard about full-service

Get the most expensive and demand a lot out of them.

I am eagerly awaiting the time when we can do this.

My experience is that it's more about the individual drivers and movers

Plan to pay 50% more than the quote. They nickel and dime.

I had to pay cash the day of the pickup for some stuff, felt taken advantage of.
