Lightening Van Lines

I recently used Lightning Van Lines to move here in the East Bay. The searching process was a pain in the rear because I went to a moving website for quotes and got bombarded with calls and emails from 15 different companies. I responded to five of them that sounded decent enough but when I spoke with Arthur from Lightning Vanlines I was sold. They didn't seem to be as cheap as some of the other movers I had talked to but something told me at the very least these guys would do a good job for me. Turns out the company wasn't expensive at all, considering I pretty much had them do everything. These guys came in and boxed up all of my home theater system, covered up my furniture, specially wrapped up my weight machine, and they even protected older furniture that was already banged up. I watched over the movers here and there but I really didn't need to. They were doing a really good job and working hard. So the cost was good, the service was excellent and they really made the whole thing a hassle free experience. When or if you ever have to move give these guys a call.

29 My husband and I recently moved from Los Angeles to Washington to be near our grandkids. I have tendonitis in my hand and my husband is in need of a new hip. Yes, what a pair. We needed young strong guys to help us pack up and move. I had several companies come out and give us quotes. After all the hoopla and too high of promises I chose to go with Lightning Van Lines because they seemed honest and didn’t promise the world. Nancy told it like it was when she came to our home to give us a visual estimate. On the day of the move three young strong men came and quickly packed up our home of 42 years. I thought it would take days but they arrived early in the morning and were done just before dinner. They even packed some of my most precious belongings in our trailer. Lightning has free storage for one month so we spent the next two weeks traveling in our home on wheels up the coast visiting friends and making new ones. When we knew our arrival date in Spokane, we gave them a call. Our worldly possessions arrived just a few days after we closed on our new house. I recommend Lightning Van Lines to anyone who is moving.

I have to start all over looking for a mover, because Lightning VanLinesrefused to honor an offer I had in writing when I called in to finalize the plans. They said the price had gone up, and even though my estimate was in writing, they refused to honor it. At this stage, even if they offered to move me for the quoted price--should I be doing business with someone like this?
