You told me they would come between 2:30 and 4:30. At 2:00, Albert called me to explain that they were coming from Newtown Square and had to empty the truck before they got to my house and they would be there around 3:30. I was very appreciative of being kept in the loop!
Albert then called me at 3:30 to let me know they would be there by 4pm. They got to the house when they said they would and removed what was on the list in just about an hour.
Both men were extremely professional and courteous! They worked hard!
And I really appreciate their effort and their help! I will certainly recommend Uhuru to my friends...[!]"
