King Gorilla Movers

If you want the most terrible experience of your entire life, please choose this moving company. This awful company was BY FAR the worst and most unprofessional moving company we’ve dealt with. They quoted us $ 55/​hour for moving a 1 BR with minimal stuff. Upon arrival they informed us that there was a 3 hour minimum plus a $ 50 fuel charge; this was NEVER mentioned over the phone. Then the fun began. The «movers
were morbidly obese and were physically unable to move anything more than a lamp or two (which were brought up one at a time to extend their working time). They were unable to move up a two-​tiered staircase and spent much of their time resting/​smoking. Asides from their obvious lack of physical prowess, they were also some of the rudest and incompetent people I have ever met. They openly SMOKED CIGARETTES WHILE MOVING US IN and when asked by someone to please not smoke in the house THEY BLEW THE SMOKE DIRECTLY IN THEIR FACE. Unbelievably, they actually at one point «hired» two EXTREMELY intoxicated individuals to help move off the street of downtown Lafayette. These drunks actually moved more stuff than the actual «gorillas». To wrap up a great day, when arguing with them about ripping us off, they threatened a passerby coming to our defense («shut your fucking mouth or I’ll shut it for you»). An absolutely terrible company with the worst of the worst employees made this truly a horrible experience. Please never call them.
