18. The Mover Up-Charge
Moving homes is a stressful time in the best of circumstances, so when a moving company promises to take care of your furniture for what seems like a reasonable price, giving you a quote over the phone, you can be forgiven for jumping on the opportunity. Then you may not hear another word about the cost until your furniture has been loaded and moved and suddenly the price has ballooned to twice the estimate or more.
When pressed, the company will have plenty of reasons at the ready—the extra chairs you forgot to mention, the extra-large wardrobe—and you’ll have few options but to pay.
