A Homart Moving

Stay away from these guys! Ed said that a cheque was fine. Then he says I have to pay cash, and it was in the evening. I had to go to the bank machine in town and this created a lot of unexpected hastle trying to get that much cash together at night, when we were trying to move.
I then paid him for the move plus a generous tip. THEN he tells me that they broke the tinted glass of the top level of my 50′ entertainment shelf. He says he will replace it not to worry. He then led me on for weeks — he had it, then it broke, then he found a guy that had one, then he didn’t. Said he was looking on Craigslist and could find one. I kept calling him over a period of weeks until I finally gave up. Unbelievable. The broken shelf stayed in my garage for over a year before I finally hauled it to the garbage dump.
He caused me unneeded hastle, then took my money and TIP before telling me he damaged my property. Then he didn’t make it right and I had to suffer for it on many levels. This guy is a dishonest cheat — his reputation will hurt his business, and rightly so.

I had used A-​Homart Moving for a previous move and was very pleased with the warmth and efficiency of the company so I used them again for my last move.
This was a HUGE MISTAKE! Once the movers had left and I went in to start unpacking I discovered scratches on my new desk, scratches on my antique sewing machine cabinet, my hope chest is now missing the 2 rear feet and slants backwards as well as chunks of wood missing from the bottom edges on the front, there are finger holes and 2 other holes punched through the backing paper on a large, precious picture of mine. Now this one boggles my mind… there are holes punched into the bottoms of my 2 new (to me) love seats! And, the topper is that my vintage leather rocker recliner has scratches in the leather.
I called, several times, to speak with the owner of the company, Edward, who was in charge of my move. He was extremely rude and hung up on me after flatly denying any responsibility for these damages saying they were obviously done after they left!
They are a bonded, insured company so they have the responsibility of making restitution and/​or repairs to my damaged property. All I want is for my items to be restored to their pre-​move condition.
I asked Edward for the name of his Bonding Agent and he hung up on me again.
So, I will be taking him to Small Claims Court and seek justice there. I have taken many photos of the damage and am keeping a log of our conversations to produce as evidence.
If anyone out there knows the name of their Bonding Agent please let me know so I can contact them and try to have their bonding removed so as to discourage their future business.
Thanks.

Ed does a good job, charges reasonable rates, and is reliable. I’ve used A-​Homart twice now and both moves were done quickly with a minimum of fuss. The people are positive and communicate well. I’ll definitely use A-​Homart for my next move.
