"Proceed with extreme caution and buy full insurance!!!! If you use them, get full insurance and literally have someone stand there in the truck and watch them place every item. We provided them with bubble wrap and tons of blankets and they used 25% of it. We were moving cross country and I hired them to load our stuff up onto a trailer. They destroyed 60% of our things. They literally put our dining room table on its side on the trailer floor with NOTHING underneath it, not even a blanket. It scraped along the trailer floor all they way across the country. Almost every single piece of furniture we own was scratched severely and we had to literally throw away 30% of our furniture. We had two men and a truck unload us in our destination city and they all felt so bad for us. They said this was literally the worst packing job they had ever seen and would sign statements or whatever we needed to help plead our case or get some money back. When I called I got transferred to their “supervisor” or claims handler and she was completely defensive right out of the gate and stonewalled me Bc my wife signed the contract after everything was loaded. We didn’t know that would void everything. How do you know you have a claim until after you find out when it’s unloaded? Lesson learned. If you have a different option I would recommend that. If not use them for 100% of everything and get full insurance!!!!"

Sprinkler systems aren't ideal for xeriscaped gardens because they can't effectively water around rocks and hardscape elements. Water often runs off or evaporates before reaching the soil. Instead, a drip irrigation system is a better choice, as it delivers water directly to plant roots, ensuring efficient water use and promoting healthy growth.
Your xeriscaped garden requires minimal yet essential maintenance. Regularly inspecting and adjusting your drip irrigation system, along with occasionally adding mulch and gravel, keeps your garden operating efficiently. Routine tasks—such as pruning, aerating, fertilizing, and soil testing—promote deep-root development and sustained plant health. This ensures maintenance remains low while your garden preserves its water-saving design.
While the initial cost of xeriscaping can be similar to or even higher than traditional landscaping, it often saves you money in the long run. Xeriscaping reduces water usage and requires less maintenance, lowering your ongoing costs. In drought-prone areas, these savings can make xeriscaping a more affordable and sustainable option over time.
Xeriscaping has potential disadvantages that include high initial labor and a departure from traditional lush landscapes. It demands extensive planning and careful installation, which increases upfront effort. Additionally, the less conventional appearance may not suit every homeowner’s taste and could impact curb appeal in areas where traditional greenery is valued, though its water-saving benefits remain advantageous.
Yes, xeriscaping can increase your home's value, especially in drought-prone areas. A water-efficient, low-maintenance landscape is attractive to buyers looking to save on water bills and reduce upkeep. While the exact increase in value varies, xeriscaping often enhances curb appeal and marketability to potential homebuyers when you’re selling your home.
