Last month was my first move in my life, yes I know at my age(25) is a little beat late, but what can I do it was nice and cozy in my parents house, Three month ago I got a job offer in the big apple NY and I was thrilled, but one thing wasn¡¦t so exciting ¡V the moving part. After hearing so many horror stories about moving companies I had allot of doubt, so I thought of driving there my self with the u-haul truck. I got the price for the truck and calculate the charges for gas and also all the other expanses like motels, tolls and stuff and suddenly realized that this is too expensive, not to mention the hard work to load and pack everything properly. So I did it with no choice I registered in a website to get some moving quotes. After only one minute(I am not kidding)somebody called me and presented him self as a representative from a professional moving company, he gave me the quote and than said that I will have to make a decision now because they only have one spot left for my date, I wasn¡¦t ready and I thought he was rude so I hanged up, while thinking this is exactly what I expected it to be long and pain full , after couple of minutes I got another call this time it was a girl her name was Natalie and she represent ORI VAN LINES she was nice and lovely and even explained everything to me about the moving business and exactly what will be included in the price and what not, she didn¡¦t miss even one detail and even told me about an elevator fee that the other guy didn¡¦t mention, she gave me attractive price and I was amazed because the difference between this price and do it myself price was huge!!! Everything sounded good especially the part when the labor gas and mileage was included in the price, but I was still skeptic so I requested the information by e mail, to my surprise she even encouraged me to take my time and do self checking about the company and that what I did, I checked reviews and even bbb records and even checked some other companies that sent me quotes, I saw that everything was great so after few days I said lets roll¡K The next week the movers showed up at my doors right on time and I requested the move to be on Friday 7 am! They were nice and worked hard my quote was very close to the original so I was pleased because that was the part I feared the most! After they loaded every thing to the truck (it only took an jour and a half) Lindsey from customer service called me to ask if everything is o.k., wow I was surprised and answered that everything is good and hopefully it will remain the same. They delivered the stuff to my new and lovely apartment in NY very fast (6 days) and everything was in the same condition as I sent them I was at the seventh cloud, Basically everything I was afraid of turned out to be wrong and I can say that I had a very nice experience! So THANK YOU ORI VAN LINES FOR EVERYTHING (and it was even cheaper than a shrink ƒº)
