Description of Incident:I am filing a…Service Issues / Delivery Issues
Description of Incident:I am filing a formal complaint against Hub Group Final Mile regarding a systemic, repeating pattern of poor operational logistics, complete lack of basic employee hygiene, and a defiant work ethic across three separate deliveries. It is clear that Hub Group's local subcontractors actively look for any minor excuse to evade the appliance installation services that customers pay for, passing the labor and financial burden onto the consumer.My experiences across three separate major Whirlpool appliance orders document a complete failure of service:The Gas Stove Delivery: The delivery crew refused to connect my gas stove simply because they failed to bring the correct, basic tools to remove the existing gas line cap. I was forced to borrow the correct wrench, remove the cap myself, and finish the installation independently with third-party assistance to safely check for gas leaks.The Dishwasher Delivery: The crew again used minor, easily resolvable details as an excuse to completely refuse the installation. I was forced to go out of my way to hire and pay an independent, third-party plumber to finish the basic installation steps that Hub Group's "professional installers" should have handled.The Latest Dryer Delivery (Attempt 1): The crew arrived entirely unprepared, lacking mandatory floor covers to protect my home and exhibiting poor personal hygiene that fell well below workplace standards. Furthermore, despite my home requiring a 3-prong electrical cord, they arrived with only a 4-prong cord, carelessly stating they "used their last one." The dryer was also severely dented due to poor freight handling, forcing a total refusal and a four-week delay.The Latest Dryer Delivery (Attempt 2): A completely different replacement crew arrived with a hostile, defiant attitude, aggressively debating me and refusing to perform the "White Glove" installation and vent hookup. They claimed, "No one told us we're supposed to install this; they just give us the address."Hub Group is operating an outsourced labor loop with zero training, zero quality oversight, and a toxic local workplace morale. It is unacceptable that a consumer dealing with their crews across three entirely different occasions faces the exact same lazy, combative attitude where drivers do everything in their power to avoid performing heavy labor.Desired Resolution:I want Hub Group corporate management to formally investigate and audit the regional dispatch terminal responsible for my territory. They must mandate that their subcontractors carry standard installation tools, maintain appropriate hygiene, and be strictly penalized when they refuse to complete paid installation manifests.
