I am trying to select a moving company to move my stuff (under
1000 lbs) to California.

When I moved to DC, two different moving companies promised to pick
up my belongings from Boston, but never showed up.  The second
company, Presidential Van Lines, wouldn't give back my deposit
check until I hounded them daily for over two months.  I wouldn't
recommend Presidential Van Lines to my worst enemy.

Needless to say, I want to avoid the nightmare I experienced the
last time I moved, so I am seeking recommendations and/or warnings
about moving companies.  Someone told me to avoid Bekins.  I am
currently considering Baltimore Storage Co. (an agent for
Mayflower), Eagle Van Lines, and Kloke Transfer (an agent for North
American).  If anyone has any opinion about these or other moving
companies, please send me email.
