sarah

price was reasonable compared to other options out there. service reps were always helpful. was disappointed that my shipping container arrived a full day later than i was told to expect. i had reserved a delivery date and it wasn’’t until i called in the middle of the delivery window that i was notified that the container was in fact still in Atlanta and would not be arriving until the next day.
