Back in NJ to pack and move after being in Wolfeboro for 4 months. First impressions...more frowns than smiles, kinda ugly scenery, long lines at stores. Good pizza!!

Interviewed two NJ moving companies on Monday. Found them both to be rather abrupt, rough and condescending. Both promised an estimate Monday night and I received none. Actually had to call one back to get an estimate. Woke this morning feeling down about the whole thing. Then I called WC Huff in NH. Long story short...great communication, great planning, great deal. The NH guys got my business!! Being honest and friendly goes a long way in my book.

Miss the beautiful lakes region. It really is special there.

The movers themselves were fine, but I hope whoever gave you the estimate was indeed honest, as well as friendly, because ours was only the latter. His estimate was a total crock, way below what Huff actually charged, although he saw everything that was to be moved and there were no unforeseen complications. Because the estimate was low and we had been impressed with the estimator, we didn't get estimates from other companies, which was obviously his intention.

We were so exhausted from the moving experience and our renovation having been completed just in the nick of time that we didn't put up a fight, which we should have. Don't let this happen to you!
