Hodgson said she hasn’t heard anything from the Atlanta-based company responsible, You Call It We Haul It.

In fact, you don't even need to call. We just Haul It.

Seems like that isn't even true. No call and no Haul. They need to rebrand as, We Break It Then Leave A Big Ole Mess When We Realize We Were At Fault.

That just doesn't really roll off the tongue though.

Nothing a couple million won't fix. Figure 1 million for the home and 3 million for the emotional damage, attorneys fees, and sentimental value.

She sounds almost calm about it in these quotes. I would be enraged. Getting a lawyer for this wouldn't likely be that difficult, and I would sue them into oblivion over it. By the sounds of it at least they're probably wasn't much (if anything) inside. It would be much worse if it was a house that they actively lived in and had all of their stuff in it.

Ever been so angry you just skip over rage and into complete serenity? This person is there.

Clear case of owner forgetting to lock the front door

So she sent a family member over to see what was going on and who asked to see a permit. When a person in charge at the site checked his permit, Hodgson says he admitted he was at the wrong address.

This seems like something you would double check before firing up the engines.
