    A ******** Service agent from the call center reached out to the client on 4-18-24 to gather information on the move that she requested (this call is recorded). An inventory list was given including 10 pieces of furniture moving from the second floor of a home. The client was asked if we are able to pull the truck close to the home. She said yes that there was a driveway. He gave her an estimated time of 2.5 to 4.5 hours and a minimum cost of around $517 based on the information provided. Hourly rates were explained to her on the call. She then paid a $99 deposit to book the move. On 4-19-24, we, the local branch reached out to her and told her we would be emailing her move paperwork to review and an estimated quote based on her inventory and move factors. On the day of the move, the move truck was not able to get down the driveway due to trees. The move truck had to stay at the top of the driveway up a hill. Due to this, the move took longer to load with the additional walking distance. Once loaded the truck left for the storage unit. After reaching the storage unit, the customer could not find the key to unlock it. The 2 movers unloaded the truck, but had to wait additional time until an employee of the storage center could cut the lock. Shortly after reaching the destination, the customer told the move captain that she didn't have enough money to pay for the move. Upon signing the initial paperwork at the beginning of the job, it states that all funds are due at the completion of the job and the time runs until the last item is placed in the house or unit. The move captain called the owner to see what to do regarding payment. He arrived on site and asked if she had a credit card we could use. She stated she only has a debit card and there isn't enough money to pay for the move in full. She said she was to get a check for $1000 the day before, but it didn't arrive. 3 Employees of College Hunks witnessed her getting irate when asked about payment. She then got in her car and left the destination without paying anything. The items were all secure in her storage unit at that time. We did not receive payment until the next day. The job began at 9:55 am and ended at 12:40 due to long carry distance and not having the key. This is a total billing time of 2.75 hours. We waived 15 minutes of her time and billed her for 2.5 hours, the truck and travel fee, fuel surcharge and she purchased 2 $12 mattress bags. Please see our 117 5 star ****** reviews to verify our service.
