The guys I know personally that have utilized that program are some of the most genuine people who just fell on hard times.

      Most of the US TV company or stations are private owned except PBS which don't do national news. CBC however is public funded with some government fund and some commercial ads aid, similar as BBC. Therefore I always prefer CBC news rather than other Canadian media or American news network.

      You can't do that if you must move THAT DAY. That is why this scam works so much, people are hamstrung by time. If you didn't have to move, then you would say no. Of course. But you have to move.
      Really what causes all this is the lack of a patriarchy. Back in the day, your adult sons and your husband would move your things. But people are increasingly childless and unmarried so (of course) single women and old people are hamstrung by their physical limitations.
      If older people had adult sons that cared about their parents that lived nearby and/or you were happily married to a healthy man, then this doesn't happen. Then men in your family go to Uhaul and take care of all this themselves. The only bill the rental of a truck and the miles on the truck. But our patriarchy is gone and feminism can't lift furniture. So women/old people who are scammed (its never young men) must seek out the media to be empowered because they can't do for themselves.

      @@amy109 some may be legitimate. With Covid the moving companies just had the customer do a video walk thru of what was being moved so it might be more stuff when the movers pick it up. The guys picking up the stuff don't make much so they add fees for elevators, stairs, heavy objects or carrying everything a long ways. Moving companies have a lot of expenses. Most of them are greedy and bad but a few companies do a good job. My truck is $1500 a week plus about $500per day in fuel. This is not counting the warehouse and office cost and other employees. If your move is $5,000 there is not much profit.

      I don't know about moving companies but there are a lot of gas stations, restaurants, and small grocery stores that do this here. Basically they 'sell' the business to a family member, change the name, and BAM magically it's a "different" company.

      Paul Biechmann it’s not only Pakistani or Indians. Some of those guys looked Afghani. Either way, you should make make a contract and discuss what’s included with the move. Put I payment terms. Either payment in full after the move is completed and unloaded at the new location.

    You should have seen my last military move. I was scheduled to receive our household goods the following morning and called the driver with concerns that the back yard was muddy, so for him to use the front yard. He informed me that he offloaded 45 minutes from the house that morning. I was livid! My delivery was two days late, wasting two days of someone's time that came to help me get settled so I could get to work. Then, when delivery was made, every blanket and padding had been removed. Antique mahogany dressers with the Queen Anne feet busted off of them, and an 1899 family heirloom buffet came in the door broken into three pieces. The frame of the quality sleeper sofa was broken when they dropped it off of the truck. A bookcase of career souvenir mugs was knocked over, resulting in the loss of nearly all of the items. It was an absolute nightmare. I have never seen a move with such extensive damage. These are just highlights. My claim was seven pages long!

    We didn't have any motor league coverage once in 1989 and needed to have our van towed to a garage. I was in the USA driving a truck. My wife called a tow company who said they would come and tow it from our place to the garage( about 5 - 6 km.) for $45. She was told he works with this garage and they will pay him. Ten minutes later the garage calls up and said the tow truck is demanding $150 cash or he won't drop it. She agreed because what else was she going to do. We only got the money back because we got dirt on the tow truck driver and threatened to report him to the authorities. Ten minutes later a car rolls up and a little kid jumps out and runs up to the door with the cash.

    Okay so this program came out a long time ago. I know it came out 2013 but I’ll break down what happened afterwards.
    *UPDATE*
    The owner and most of the movers were arrested in 2010. The sons owned like 20 moving names and they switched them out a lot if you noticed at the end they painted over it on van that’s why. One of the stories not mentioned really irked me “In one recent case, Hooper said, a Haitian couple was allegedly forced to go to an ATM machine and withdraw their last dollar to pay for the rising costs involved with what was supposed to be a $300 move. Police said the movers then jettisoned the couple’s belongings onto the street and drove away.”
    They got what they deserved. The car he drove which was part of the company was taken. Oh and he was a millionaire on welfare.

      Rick's Giggle their scam was preying on people who hired them (based on a verbal quote). Those customers so relied on them that they had no backup plan and were moving at the last minute. Since they needed to move that day there was no way for them to hire another company and get them to come out that fast. It is really bad- a bad thing to do to people on Moving day (keep adding charges and holding their furniture hostage).
      Luckily
      I make a habit of moving well in advance of when I need to be out.

They told me no hiden fee but as soon as they came in my house to start the job.They were asking a deposit before moving. When they reach the final destination they said they won't unload unless I paid the remaining balance. I don't I have a choice so I gave them the rest. After paying they started unloading my staff then I went inside the house. After unloading they left most of my staff including furniture outside and they left. They were not professional and break most of my furniture. I called the police but nothing happen. I will never deal with moving company again

People have schedules and can't just dump everything because you didn't want to pay the extra charges from the movers you had already planned on using.
