Had this nightmare client last week who rented a U-Haul and blamed us for a dent on the side after we loaded her crap. She demanded we cover the $800 repair even though it was clearly from her bad driving, not our dollies or straps. Guys, how do you even deal with these entitled types who turn a simple local move into a lawsuit threat?

man, i had a similar bs claim last month where the customer swore my guys scratched their van, but it was parked like crap and they hit a pole themselves. these entitled homeowners make every job a headache, dont they?

entitled clients like that deserve to eat the whole $800, dont even waste breath explaining - just send em the pics and let u-haul sort their bullshit. if they threaten lawsuit, counter with small claims for the time they wasted your ass.

honestly these entitled clients shouldnt get a dime from u-haul unless they got video proof, otherwise its just their word against the movers and thats BS.

did you end up having to file with their moving help service or just tell her to pound sand?

u-haul's damage claims are a total scam, they drag their feet and lowball you every damn time just to keep their hands on your cash.

document everything with photos before and after loading, then point her to u-haul's safemove coverage since your dollies couldn't make a dent like that.

LOL, tell her to take it up with U-Haul's insurance - that's what I do when they try pinning truck scratches on the movers.

Smart move. I once had a lady swear we bent her fridge door, but the 'dent' was from years of kids slamming it shut. Laughed my ass off when she backed down.

We just finished a flawless $1200 long-distance job with Bekins equipment, no complaints, and the tip was killer.

Document everything with photos before and after - saved my butt on a similar $600 claim last month.
