Complaint Review: Zippy Shell Moving & Storage

We scheduled our long distance move from Southern California to Southern Louisiana with Zippy Shell in April 2016 after researching various moving companies.  We were told that our things would be kept in a climate controlled  storage facility and the cages that our things were stored in would be shrink wrapped over the entire cage.  We decided to have our things moved into a local storage facility because our home was being built and would not be ready for us to move in for several months and the storage charges were considerably more than for one large storage unit. 

Thank goodness we decided to do this because at that point the nightmare began! Our things had been in storage for 4 months by this time when we called to schedule our things to be delivered.  Our things arrived on an open flat bed truck that had been in the pouring rain for the 2 1/2 hour trip from their facility and nothing had been shrink wrapped.  Once they arrived we noticed how filthy our things were and were told that our things had not been in a climate controlled facility, they had been stored in an open filthy warehouse that 18 wheelers and other trucking equipment would go through every day.  The delivery people were a young boy about 15 years old and 2 older men that appeared to be in their 70's.  They literally threw our things in our new storage facility in the pouring rain.  When we made our claim to be compensated for items that were broken, damaged, and ruined Zippy Shell decided they would only pay for what they wanted to pay for and not what was damaged, broken or ruined.  Stay away from this company!!! We have hired an attorney to get a fair compensation from this company. You can view the delivery in the rain on You Tube look under "Zippy Shell Moving Company Nightmare!!!"
