Review content:
We have read the glowing reviews posted here, but we have just been through a short, seemingly simple move from lower mid-town Manhattan down to the financial district, and we believe that anyone thinking of hiring Manor ought to read this posting. First, they quoted us a price that seemed fair and reasonable, and we accepted it. Then, when their movers appeared at our apartment, they immediately asked for more money (showing us a work order that, among other things, quoted the labor rate at $100 an hour!); then, they asked us to take responsibility for a possible parking ticket (because they had to double park); then, at the end of the 1.5 mile trip downtown, they unpacked, leaving an incredible mess, and on their way out the door, presented us with a bill for just short of twice their original quote, trying to justify the 'hike' because they 'needed to use more cardboard boxes'!! MORE CARDBOARD BOXES ? Have you ever spent around $600 for an armful of (folded) cardboard boxes? Incidentally, because we wouldn't agree to pay the ""possible parking ticket"", one of the three movers sat in the truck throughout the packing-and-move-out process, charging us $100 an hour for his time! Can you believe that? These guys were terrible, and when we complained to the company's management, they offered us a $100 refund ... really? In our view, their conduct was borderline fraudulent, certainly inappropriate and offensive, so, be warned. We feel that they cheated us, and they may just cheat you too.
