Bridgeview Van LinesReviews of bridgeviewvanlines.com

Worst moving company I ever hired. I have been relocated to Maryland from California. Initial contract was $3000 but I ended up paying almost $6000. After delivering my stuffs, one of my furniture had several damage and there were 3 expensive items. They wont take responsible about it, they tell you that you have to deal with the third party movers company. I don't even know why I hired them.

I recently moved from Washington to Georgia for work and I hired Bridgeview as my movers. Everything went great, the movers were friendly and experienced, the only thing is they were a few hours late so they didn’t finish till evening time. Other than that it was wonderful, I would certainly recommend them for anyone moving long distance

Using this moving company was a nightmare. Even though our address was correct on BOL they put us on a route going 3100 miles and we were only going 524. I had them change that 5 times. Our quote went from 4200.00 to 6200.00 and then when truck showed up and loaded they asked for 1800.00 more because even though I made an exact inventory list they didn’t want it and the quality assurance manager told me to pad my box count and I would be just fine. Well 1800.00 extra after they loaded truck proved he was incorrect. We were going to CA from OR and we got put on east coast route and took 15 days to go one state over. The morning they delivered they called and said I needed to wire 1200.00 for shuttle truck or I would not get my stuff. A shuttle truck was not needed. I have all kinds of proof to that effect. When they did finally show up that evening they brought nothing inside. One mover said he had contagions animals at home so since we had a cat he couldn’t help us. My total for 524 miles and half a 26’ truck worth of stuff was 9200.00. The morning after our stuff arrived we started going through ever. I have missing furniture. Have damaged furniture. Scratched furniture. Broken furniture. I have filed a claim with company. They are using new logistics companies who aren’t vetted. When you call the message says mailbox full and hangs up on you. Calling the moving company itself got me nowhere. I have filed complaints with Fcms, BBB and plan to file complaints with US DOT and DOT in each state. Please save yourself a nightmare and do not use this company or their logistics company RADO express logistics. Some people at the company were so aggressive I asked to deal with managers. Just really a awful, depressing, discouraging and downright bad experience.

Wish I had of read the reviews first. I used this company. Horrible experience. My price doubled once the Infinity moving company arrived. And this company took 2 months to deliver my belongings. No communication. Bridgeview lied and said that my belongings had been dispatched when they actually had not been. They must not actually know the movers as they had implied, unable to reach the movers for any clarification.

I was very disappointed all the way around with this company!! We made reservations a month early. And was told it will be 15,000. With 3 payments, we payed the first payment. So much went wrong I’m just going to list it *they didn’t call when they said they would *they scheduled pick up on Sunday knowing they don’t work Sunday. * I had 4 different contracts, they send you one then after you sign they change what it says. Even the guys moving had a different contract. *I have a lot of my things were broke and damaged. * they changed the amount of money owed many times. Continued to tell us that we owe more money. 15,000 to 18,000 to 23,000 To 25,000. * we had less than 24 hours to come up with all the money. * I called the office manager many times she blamed me for everything and just didn’t care I asked to talk to the owner many times. Refused to let me talk to him she said it’s not important enough for him to deal with. *they charged by the box, the footage used on the truck, they packed empty boxes, when confronted the answer was so what’s the big deal. * they wrap paper towels and packed them but not computers or speakers or mirrors * most of the boxes was damaged cause they didn’t fill them * I had a delivery for my dogs food the day of packing day. I received an email saying it was delivered and when asked the workers about it they said it was by the door then someone else said they packed it on the truck. So I had to go out and buy more food cause they couldn’t find it. * I told the worker in charge that my husband had to put this light up not to have the guys pack it. He didn’t communicate this to them and they did pack it. So we then had to also go buy a new light. * they didn’t give us the correct tucks they said they would and then charged us more money cause the truck they gave us was full *they were supposed to take things apart and wrap it pack it deliver it, put it where I wanted it unwrap it and set it back up. No they did not do this. They wrapped some things, they only took apart some things. Nothing is where we wanted it and nothing put back together. * it was All very rushed, and unprofessional * by the end of the day of delivery, I had a nervous break down and my husband made everyone leave.

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.
