Lippincott Van Lines

DEN OF THIEVES

I hired the Winsted, CT office of lippincott to move me. They moved me from CT to WV in July 2009. I tipped them $100. Then they proceeded to STEAL power tools, a damascus bladed Japanese katana sword, a moving dolly, an upright vacuum cleaner and NUMEROUS other things. They LOST the glass inserts to my coffee table. The worst thing was that they lost the shelves to my late mothers antique Penn. House cherry China cabinet and broke the legs off of the cherry dining table that was also part of the set. The contract stated that I had 9 months to send in the claim. I waited only 4 1/2 months. I wanted to be sure that the articles were actually gone and not in some box yet to be unpacked. So I sent in the claim in HALF the time allowed. I just received a letter from Lippincott stating that NONE of my losses are their problem. One of the reasons given, It took 4 1/2 months for me to make a claim! I even informed these crooks by telephone within 2 weeks of the move of the missing and damaged property! That's how I got their claim form!!! The owner will not even talk to me! NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER do business or let anyone you care about do business with Lippincott Moving and Storage of CT.! PS; They even made off with my checkbook the day of the move! One of the chain-monkeys actually bragged of being a Hells' Angel! He then proceeded to complain that my house smelled of cigarette smoke. Some big bad biker!
