Hired AMJ Campbell for a move within City of Thunder Bay. Our relocation was sudden, with no time to sort and pack much of our own belongings. The estimate provided grossly underestimated the time required and the number of boxes.
Due to the circumstances of our move, we have yet to unpack the majority of boxes--9 months later--but in those we have opened, we found numerous broken items. Fragile items were thrown in with books. Some boxes contained mostly paper wrapped plastics and non-fragile objects. Collectibles with more than one part we're divided among different boxes. There was no sense to how things were packed.
The packing, loading and delivery dates were scheduled at the company's convenience; not ours. My husband and I had to miss work to be available for the movers. The men took 10 to 15 minute coffee breaks every 15 to 20 minutes and all work came to a standstill. Ultimately, they left one guy to finish packing, which may explain why things were thrown in boxes willy-nilly.
The movers had a fight in public outside our new house, yelling and screaming and then threw boxes back onto the truck to be delivered several days later--at their convenience, again.
The whole experience was horrendous, and if I ever move again, AMJ Campbell will not be the movers we hire. We hired them because a co-worker recommended them. I strongly discourage residential customers from hiring this company.
