Hi Forkie,

Yes. I called Richard that time. :)

Had called both 138movers and Helping hands.

Both gave me quote around the same price.

In the end I chose helping hand instead coz I pretty much support yellow ribbon project hehe.

But contacting Richard is pretty much difficult. He seems pretty busy and not really have time to talk.

the conversation were pretty short and made arrangements of delivery boxes on Tuesday and Moving on Friday.

On Monday I called Richard again as he told me to call him if confirm the job.

Called him n he pretty much forgotten he told me to call and I had to remind him on that.

Tuesday received a call from him that confirming the pick up timing on Friday will be around 1-2pm.

I double check with him what time if his guys are coming over to send the boxes, lucky I asked coz he forgotten about it lol.

So he told me he will settle that and indeed, the boxes were sent promptly in the afternoon.

Duno issit I'm lucky or his boys are really that efficent. Can deliver boxes within 1hr !

On Friday i was pretty much anxious if he will remember about my appt.

3pm and still no 1, I called and checked with Richard and he told me his guys should be arriving.

I looked down below and indeed the lorry was just arrived.

Bobby and his guys dropped in and indeed they were good in their job. Within 1.5hrs they had dismantled and moved the king size bed, mattress, 2 2doors cupboardd, 1 1door cupboard, 1 bedside table, and 9boxes of my stuffs.

I made way to my new place in CCK slightly earlier to open the door for them.

The guys just took 1 hr to move all the stuffs in.

Pretty impressed that they assembled the king size bed real quick.

The price was reasonable too. 1/2 load of lorry $230, $20 for additional 2 bulky items as they had to climb 1 storey.

Total $250. :)

Furnitures were all carefully srhinkwrapped and mirror pc were cover in thick newspaper to prevent cracking.

Overall I am satisfied by their service.

If only the calling ordeal can improve then it will be prefect.

The whole hse is using the same color actually. Only difference is Living room we have added another Day Curtain to make it 2 layers.

We got it at the neighbourhood shop at Jurong West Blk 400+

Price wise was ok ok as since all our curtains are full height, about $1.6k total.

Good Morning Forkie,

We didnt really face any issue with the calling part, probably cause we didnt ask for boxes. My mum was also impressed with their speed and carefulness with stuff.

Luckily everything turn out ok for you in the end. :)

Pots and pans were given by my Sis in law hehehe. Think she got it while redeeming NTUC points for these items.

So far the only brand i heard is Tefal ? I not very pro in kitchen stuffs sorry :P

Minor outstanding stuffs coz most of outstanding items i decided to do myself.

Scrap off paint/putty on floors walls.

Repaint areas that need to touch up.

Install 3 sets of cloths hanger behind each door.

Still outstanding issue.

1 Chipped of floor tile in living room <--- Gave up and let go liao

Few pc of chipped of Wall tiles due to installation of toiletries. <--- Gave up too.

1 Ugly pipe sharing the floor trap in MBR toilet. <--- Have to live with it

MBR wall feature have not drill any openings for cables and wires <--- Guess I have to buy a drill with the open bit to drill myself.
