...tried to deliver furniture to the wrong address - me - and promptly became stuck on the bridge going over my culvert. Nary a word from the Allied driver, even when I went down to see how long before I could leave. No explanation or apology. Zip. Nada. Nothing.

Allied Pickfords win the trifecta: not careful, incompetent, and rude.
