You have to be very careful who you hire to move you. Rogue movers especially will hire the dregs of society. There are many instances where rogue movers have been found to have hired sex offenders, thieves, murders etc. And you have to remember these people will know where you live and what kind of possessions you have. Do really want to have that kind of person move you? I know I wouldn’t.
Well here is a recent news article you may find interesting. It is a story of how two moving laborers attacked their foreman after they broke a customers furniture.

An incident that started with a dropped dresser ended with two movers in jail, Stafford authorities said.
Sheriff’s spokesman Bill Kennedy said Deputy Brian Miller went to the Hampton Oaks subdivision Monday in response to a reported assault in progress.
He found a man sitting on a lawn on Brittany Lane holding a white towel to his bleeding head. Rescue workers were tending to him.
Kennedy said the victim was the foreman of a moving company crew. A co-worker told police that the attack began about 5 p.m. after two workers dropped a dresser, causing one of its legs to break off.
The foreman was aggravated and got more upset when the two workers began laughing, according to the police report. The foreman then called his manager and told him what had happened.
Kennedy said this infuriated the workers, who called the foreman a “snitch” and began pummeling him with their fists.
The victim picked up a hammer to defend himself but dropped the hammer and was beaten with a chain. The suspects then broke the victim’s phone before leaving the area.
The deputy found the suspects in the area of Mine Road and Northampton Boulevard. After talking with them, he took them into custody, Kennedy said.
Esteban Heredia, 50, of Brooklyn was charged with malicious wounding and vandalism.
Jesse Rasary, 44, of the Bronx was charged with assault. Both men were placed in the Rappahannock Regional Jail.

An Honest Mover!

You know I love it when I am looking at other movers and I find a completely honest mover. Believe it or not, this is sometimes a rarity. But, today in looking through Craigslist I found a co0mpletely honest mover…
Okay, actually he is not a mover but a moving laborer (he does say he works for a moving company.) Still, it is refreshing to see this on Craigslist. While there are many movers that advertise there that are honest the number that are dishonest far exceeds our small click.
Anyway, here is Bill’s ad that he posted in the Battle Creek Craigslist:

SEND ME AN EMAIL OF WHAT YOU NEED MOVED AND I WILL EMAIL YOU A QUOTE BACK
TO MUCH TO LIST….. I OFFER FREE ON-SITE SERVICES- JUST SHOOT ME AN EMAIL — MY NAME IS BILL
I can forgive the grammatical errors for the fact of his complete honesty.
I do think his rates are a bit high for just a laborer, but heck, if he gets the business then more power to him. I love the fact that he comes right out and tells you that he is NOT insured. Some many would have not done this.
Although he refuses to tell what moving company he works with I would hazard a guess to say it is Greater Michigan Movers as they are the only one is Battle Creek. (If I am right Bill I promise I won’t tell Mike.)
Just thought I would write and talk about this.
