A Regina couple says their moving experience was a nightmare that left their belongings damaged, destroyed or missing.
Doug Dovell is originally from Saskatchewan. He and his girlfriend recently made the decision to move back to Regina from their home in Prince George, British Columbia.
But Dovell says the move has left them devastated.
“It ended up taking us four days to go through everything. But not one box was undamaged … Not one piece of furniture made it undamaged. The worst part was the amount of stuff we didn't receive,” Dovell said.
Among the items that didn’t arrive were the cremated remains of a family member.
“Like you're talking $100,000 worth missing and damaged things and irreplaceable things. My wife's dad's ashes. He was cremated. They didn't come. You just can't replace that.”
Dovell said it looked like the moving van suffered a rollover based on the condition of his belongings. He claimed his boxes showed signs they were unpacked.
