We used a bus and 2 14 passengers vans which were clean, safe, comfortable and very nice. They're a busy bunch, so communication was sometimes a little spotty when planning, but there wasn't any question about commitment. Darcy met up with us the day before to drive the routes and even ended up finding us time efficiency in our schedule. They're fairly priced (although transportation is not cheap!) and well worth it!

Here is a real review based on a real experience (not random 5-start reviews from CA and WA for a…read morecompany in Maine). Country Coach Charter pulled the old bait-and-switch on me, pocketed my deposit, and refused to refund me the money back when I received the invoice (months before the date of service) with services we did not agree on. Several months before my wedding, I requested a coach bus with air conditioning that seats 50. Darcy immediately responded and asked me to fill out a form on her website and submit the deposit, and she would immediately send over the invoice. Wanting to lock down transportation, I foolishly did so as I thought this was a honest, business relationship. When I finally received the invoice, it was for a a shuttle bus that doesn't even seat 50, with no air conditioning in the middle of summer (the shuttle bus wasn't even pictured on their website or facebook page). When I respectfully emailed back immediately saying that this is not what we agreed on, and if I could receive my deposit back, Darcy did not respond for months, after repeated calls and emails. My CC company would not refund me the money either due to filling out the form on her website first (which was my mistake). I am very disappointed that CC of Maine would conduct business in this manner, and am personally insulted that they wouldn't even return my phone calls or emails, even as I was being respectful. I hope that people will learn from my experience.

They were easy to work with from the start, providing a quote quickly and a number of vehicle options to choose from. When I provided a schedule, they let me know that the time table wouldn't quite work because a bus takes longer to travel to/from than a passenger car. I was very appreciative of this attention to detail to ensure everything went smoothly for our event! The driver was on time the entire night. I thought their price was very fair. Thank you for getting our guests to and from safely!

My wife enjoyed our stay so much that she wants to come back twice a year to just relax on this perfect little slice of land.

The barn is such a cool area to just hang out and relax, play games, listen to some records on the record player, and enjoy some excellent farm-to-table meals. Such a unique stay. If you are looking at these reviews trying to make up your mind. Just book your stay here. You won't be disappointed.

When I plan a move, I look for three "E"s: The Economics, the Efficiency, and how Easy on my Stuff they are. The Economics: I sold my house in April of 2016, and sought bids from five different companies that do business in Central Maine. The interesting thing about Precision Packing College Movers is that they state they will beat the competition's pricing. While their pricing schedule is a bit strange, they were true to their word, and beat all of the other moving companies. The pricing schedule (how I understand it) is they block out a 3-4 hour window for the move. It doesn't matter how much time you have allotted (some movers charge by the hour). They adjust their rate based on the complexity of the move, but they can get most local moves done in that amount of time. You detail the move as best you can and they estimate costs (including the truck rental). While I could not pin down their hourly rate, just know you are paying for the entirety of the move and not so much by the hour. The Efficiency: Let's just say you'll need to have your act together for these guys. I had to pack a 2074 square foot house by myself, so I was still in the process of packing when they arrived. My recommendation to you is: make sure you are done packing when they arrive. :) These students, however, were extremely efficient and got my stuff in the truck a lot quicker than I thought. I did move a good deal of my items on my own, but they got the big stuff done and fast. Moving items into the new house: they were attentive to where I needed things, and put together the beds quickly. Easy on my Stuff: They took great care to make sure they did not harm any of my stuff. I would suggest, however, they get some moving blankets instead of using my blankets! :) They treated my stuff for the most part as if it was valuable cargo. My elliptical was half broken and one of the legs almost fell on me. They were quick to not let that happen. So now the negatives (these are just things you should know beforehand): They prefer to not take checks. Yes, on their website it says checks emphatically, but they either didn't want to take one from me or they don't like taking them, period. I'll assume the latter. They do take credit cards (one note, Tyler did work with me on this in a positive way). Also, they wanted half the payment in advance. While I do not disagree with this practice, most people who are moving are not carrying a ton of cash on them. It's just too easy to lose money that way. If I were Precision Packing, I would have listed their "pay half up front" policy on their website. These students handled my decent sized moving project with professionalism and I felt I made a good choice with Precision Packing. I recommend them for your big moving day.

Our driver was so awesome, funny, kind, and got us to Bangor safely. It took HOURS but I'll never forget how great he was. I wish we had more options - I travel from Lincoln, Maine to Portland, Maine frequently. I try to use public transportation as much as possible to save the environment and save my car. Perhaps the limited options are Covid related. It was hard getting up at 4:30 this morning to get on the 7 am bus to Portland. I was determined to support our business and also help save the environment. I have been vaccinated against Covid, that has helped me make this decision, as well. They have plastic guards on all the seat backs. They have seats blocked off. The staff are awesome, as always! I love how I can sit back, read, listen to music, or watch a movie. You do have to bring your own headphones now and they do not serve water and snacks. That is fine - I'm grateful they are still in service.
