    Erin G.

  • The driver was amazing. I was stunned b/c he movedthe heavy furniture by himself when delivering ourbelongings. Everyone was very cooperative, helpfuland polite. It was a positive move. I think Allied should have not made one driver unload my furniture and load into my garage by himself. We were ready to help him but he refused & did it alone. It was sent threw the worst road ever.
