Recycles dryer sheets
We are planning to move from Illinois to the Sarasota area and need a good mover. It seems like they all have low ratings. Anyone out there very happy with their mover and can recommend them?
I'm not sure you can put much faith in company ratings. Our experience (eight moves using interstate carriers) was the quality of the move was determined entirely by the quality of local franchise at each end (packing & loading, unloading & unpacking). The professionalism, experience and proficiency of the work crews can vary substantially. We had good, bad, and one absolutely terrible move with the same company.
Watch the packers and loaders like a hawk.
I moved from New Jersey To the Sarasota area sixteen years ago .I can't recommend a mover but I can recommend that you take a long hard look at your furniture and pare it down to just what you can't live without . I moved a huge dining room set ( dark wood ) only to donate it within nine months . The furniture and life style is different here and most Northern furniture does not translate well to Florida . Within two years of moving I had gotten rid of all my furniture except a bedroom set & a recliner . Everything else I bought new in lighter colors .
A little off the topic but as an aside to you getting rid of all your "dark"
furniture, I'll offer this. We had the same problem with our bedroom set.
Beautiful, but very dark. Had it stripped of the dark stain and clearcoated with polyurethane. Beautiful!. That was 20 years ago and we still have it.
