We have just relocated between countries. We had the shippers do all the packing and paid a lot of money for it. So they pack and box everything. Second day, just before we have to leave for our flights, they finish.
Foreman tells dh to do a walk through but doesn't accompany him. Dh knows closets have all been cleared of stuff and doesn't check in closets.
An hour after they go, just as we are leaving, we see a big box in the downstairs closet. We call the movers to let them know.
Now we have an email saying too bad, so sad, you did the walk through and said all ok. If you want to ship it, $1100.
We paid this company a lot of money as the professionals. I feel they need to step up the plate and come and get the box. Yes, dh should have opened closet but he didn't think they'd put a big box in the closet and knew there was nothing of ours in those closets. And the foreman should have walked through with him as they are the professionals and it's their job.
What do you think mn? Aibu to think the moving company should take responsibility for this or is it actually our fault and we should suck it up?
