Used Zippy Shell in conjunction with a 1-800-Pack Rat storage container as it was a package option for moving to Philly. I had to make a few updates to my order, and the customer service was very nice and they were able to accommodate the changes I needed. They were running late day-of but called to let me know when they were on their way. The guys were very professional and did a great job with moving everything quickly and safely.
