Super slow movers and hourly rates!!! - Moving Review

I was moving a bedroom set and a living room set plus two chairs and a small kitchen table and a large curio into a one bedroom apartment. Grant it the bedroom furniture was a quality set and very heavy and the livingroom set was bulky as well but I knew these two guys were slow from the moment that I met them. When movers moved my mom and were paid a flat rate they husseled and were fast and strong. That is what I expected for the movers when they came to my house. One of the guys walked so slow, I had pep to my step but not them. I was furious and I asked my friend to just start helping me carry out all my boxes of non-furniture items to my front lawn by the truck so my bill wouldn't be that outrageous, I was exhausted! Sometimes the one guy would pick up some sofa cushions and walk slow after I picked up some heavy boxes. I arrived at the apartment before them and eventually had to call b/c they didn't yet show up and I told them that they were slow and that I was moving faster than them, especially the other guy that I was not talking to and that the bill was going to be too much. I just called and am waiting for a call back from the manager there, not sure if I will ever hear back. I would NEVER use this service again! It cost me $560 and 5 hours for two slow movers and one truck to move into an apartment that was only 30 min. driving distance from my old location. They also broke two of my lamps and did not apologize.
