Having moved hundreds over the years, I can almost
guarantee that her stuff wasn't ready to be loaded. Probably nothing was packed in boxes ready to go. The worst moves are when the mover isn't ready.

This is definitely true, and the reimbursement for breakage is worthless.

I'm not a FB expert, I guess it's a "closed group" so maybe it's not private.
