How are they still in business??? Surprised nobody is doing anything to keep these type of scammers... They push you to accept their quote and keep pressing and pressing. Do not respect the customer side at all. AVOID THEM!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. This company is deceptive and highly misrepresent their services, and more than likely are scammers. My husband and I hired this company, Nick, a sales rep, stated on the phone that they would be the ones completing the move, and own all their own trucks, "unlike all the other moving companies". We put a 1,200 deposit down in good faith that they would arrive on the scheduled day. In our "binding" contract, it stated they would arrive between the 6/17-6/18, but they did not show up, nor did they attempt to call us to inform us of any delay. We had to reach out to a few different people to finally get a response, when finally, the sales rep, Josh, basically said he was unsure when/if anyone would be arriving. As they did not show up, we started to become concerned about this company. When we initially researched their company in March, they didn't have very many reviews, but the ones they had were fine. Upon further research, most of the 5 star reviews look fake (as these were the only reviews said "customers" posted), and there now are many more one star reviews, further stating that these guys are scammers, noting that customers have been strung along, no showed, items held hostage, etc. Due to them no-showing, us needing our items moved by the end of the month, and these reports from other customers, we reached out to them asking for our deposit back as they did not render any service (and more than likely, never even scheduled movers in the first place). Of course, they initially only wanted to talk to us on the phone, not in writing, but finally, we got a response stating that we would not be getting our deposit back. In the contract, although, in the bold print it gives the dates that the move will take place, in the fine print it states that these dates are not guaranteed. There are many other ridiculous and unrealistic items in the fine print that show a total lack of accountability, especially paired with the fact that they are telling customers one thing verbally while in reality its a totally different story. It's almost as though they do this intentionally. We recognize that we should have read the fine print more carefully, though, we did not go into this deal thinking that they would be taking part in deceptive business practices--expensive lesson to learn, I guess. We figure we're getting off easier than the other customers who have had thousands of dollar increases due to this company low-balling the customers and then making backroom deals with the movers who shake the customers down once they have their belongings in hand. We hope no one else has to experience or do business with these folks, but as most scam artists do, they will probably pick up their business and move unto the next scam eventually. You’d think with all the money they make off of scamming innocent people, they’d at least be able to afford decent photoshop. Note the photo taken clearly from another buisiness.

Also, just a interesting side note, as we started looking at pictures this company posted of their said "fleet" of trucks, we noticed some of them looked a bit photoshopped. Upon a simple reverse Google image search, we found that to be true.

I have booked with them and nothing is as they said and they will not answer when you press their customer service button it simply repeats the recording. Are they a real business, has anyone received their items? Thank you

They replied to my review dated 30 May 2023 and stated my items would be delivered between Tuesday and Thursday of next week which would be 7 to 9 June 2023. Well, here it is the 13th of June and still no delivery. No phone calls, nothing at all. I doubt they will deliver at all and will have to litigate as they are useless to talk to and probably don't even know where my belongings are located. I basically paid thousands of dollars to have my belongings stolen or destroyed.

What a nightmare!! Bridgeview Scam Lines is a more appropriate name for this group of criminals. They ripped my daughter off and instead of fixing the problem they just keep telling more lies. Funny how you claim to have loaded her entire house. She paid for 40 boxes and packing and received nothing!! I spent the past weekend packing all her belongings into 30 boxes that I purchased. Now I have to load them up into Uhaul boxes and pay 1,000's more to ship them, even though we already paid Bridgeview Scam Lines to pack and ship. Maya, Francine, Crystal, and Greg, are all a bunch of professional liars who do nothing but tell lies and then disappear never to be heard from again. I only wish others would have spoken up sooner and we would have taken our business elsewhere. Now over a month later my daughter still doesn't have her belongings, we believe her belongings will never be delivered and have most likely been stolen by Bridgeview Scam Lines

Unfortunately I did not do enough research re: moving interstate I took the bite from a moving company that was actually a broker The agreed upon price for my move changed the day of pick-up It was now in the hands of another Co Having paid 1/2 of the moving price to Bridgeview I had to Leave stuff a 3 sectional couch as the pick up said it was to large . Delivery was promised in 4 days it arrived after less than 24 hours notice 3 weeks later As instructed I had a certified check for the Balance They said I needed cash according to Company #3 The total Amount due was an additional $420 for What ?? Please do your Home work Do not deal with a broker use a actual mover ask questions I was the Fish They caught

I would give zero stars if that were possible. This is a scam. They will take your money and not show up. We gave them our down payment after signing a contract. We tried to get ahold of them to ask further questions and the email got bounced back as not existing. We called and they claimed it was an "I.T. issue." We tried calling the number of the guy we had spoken to. Also didn't work. We are filing a claim with the credit card company right now and hiring legit movers. They say they've been around for a long time, but they were incorporated on 12/31/22. Don't fall for this scam!!!!!!!
