My stuff was held hostage by bogus moving company who moved me to Michigan. It was one of those classic cases you see on "60 Minutes". Give us more money or you don't get your stuff. What was supposed to be a $1,275 move turned into over $3,000. Turns out the moving company was under investigation by the NTSB for that same reason. They were ordered to stop doing business. I'm sure by now they've changed their name and have opened up shop again. I was going to sue them, and would've won. However, the court clerk told me she's seen cases like this before and collecting any monies would've been nearly impossible.

The investigator told me the worst place to look for a mover is on the internet (which is what I did). A very expensive lesson learned there.

Good luck honey. Please keep us posed.

I trusted U-haul because they are the leader & I've used them before. Moved 500km, had few issues. Moved Chad & Andrew out in 1 night & had no issues.. tried to do the 1 night with me & ran into problems right away!! It was all down hill from there.

I just called Peel Police to make sure I had everything ready & to make sure I had all the correct info.

I just have to go down to u-haul, call the police back & an officer will show up & sort things out. My friend who rented the truck, just needs to show up, to say its my stuff & I can take it all.. Then he can leave.. He won't help me move my stuff cause he knows he'll loose his temper & end up getting into doo-doo.. Luckly David, is willing to help me out, which is good, cause hes a big strong guy.

If by chance u-haul still refuses, the officer said I can call the media, which should do the trick quickly & or take them to civil court... Can't charge them, don't fully understand why not, but I'll educate myself later if the time comes.

So not looking forward to this mess
