Recommendations for furniture hire - property stylists Melbourne....

[Beach Mama]

As per title if you know of or have used a property stylist I would love the names! There are lots out there and trying to narrow it down.

Cheers!

I don't have a recommendation but I do have the name of someone I would avoid.

We used a company last year and I was pretty unimpressed with their service. I didn't feel they listened to us at all, the furniture was a bit odd in some circumstances and the staff they used to move in the furniture were less than competent or professional. I think this was more to do with cost cutting from the management as the movers were lovely guys (backpackers) and when I did chat to them they hinted that their boss was a bit of a bastard and had them under a heap of pressure to move quickly. They also forgot an appointment they had arranged to deliver furniture and turned up really late for another. Most frustrating of all was that we specifically asked for 'no artwork' (I am not a fan of display home art and we organised our own). They bought in artwork (and I use that term loosely!) and then proceeded to nail it into our virgin walls (not even centered properly) when our house had never had a nail in a wall .

Oh and there was the missing bits and pieces that they said "would not matter, they wont even notice in the photo shoot" which were glaringly obvious when the photographer turned up that evening. I ended up having to finish making a room and find bits to fill in the gaps so we could get the photos done. Less than impressed.

PM me if you are interested in their name. Otherwise I hope that helps you with some things to look for and avoid in another company when shopping around.
