Maseko and the movers were very friendly, professional efficient, and thoughtful. They made my moving such an easy and stress-free experience. Worth every cent.
The company never came to move me. I only learned after calling them about their whereabouts that they had a Tyre puncture and after an hour said they are done fixing the tyre and on the way, after another hour they still said they are on their way to me. It was then too late to move my household things to the storage. They were very unprofessional and never called to explain their situation, I had to call them all the time. No written quotation or pro-forma invoice even after I asked for one. I paid R700 deposit which I never got back.
