We had a terrible experience!! We moved cross country and paid for our belong to be packed. When they had packed most of the stuff, they told us it would be twice the original amount (we were originally told it would be $3700 and it ended up being $6650!). Of course at this point, there wasn’t much option except to pay the rest since we had already paid a deposit.
They lost a bed frame and several boxes. They broke a mirror and a tore a painting. The number that was given to file a claim was out of service. We called the general number several times to explain the issues and they repeatedly told us someone would call us back, which never happened.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. I wish we had done a pod or something else. This was a terrible way to move!

A disreputable company that sends criminals to your house
We hired this company to move my mother, a 60 year old woman who lived alone, for her move from NJ to TN.
Upon pick-up of the items, the movers intimidated my mother into paying an additional $600 in cash and a personal check made out to an individual after loading her belongings, including all of our family heirlooms, on a truck. While she understood that she was being scammed out of this money, she was afraid to challenge this man as she lived there alone. The driver insisted on cash and a personal check written out to him instead of the company for this undocumented payment after he already loaded her belongings into his truck.
I called the company to complain about this scam and they told me there was nothing they could do. The company later then called me to accuse my mother of bribing the driver which is a disgusting accusation. My mother who was scammed out of a large amount of money by their employee had not bribed anyone. The company has recordings of this phone conversation and I urge them to listen to this disgusting accusation.
Stay away from this company at all costs. No experience has made me lose as much faith in humanity as this one. The incident has been reported to all relevant agencies.

DO NOT HIRE!!!
DO NOT HIRE!!!! Fraudulent pricing practices, uses Green Van Lines, DOES NOT COMMUNICATE, and is dishonestabout moving/delivery dates. Look up these companies on FMSCA's website (. Domestics DOT #: 3425548; Green Van Lines DOT # (note they are under One Stop): 2642285 (as DO NOT HIRE!!!! Fraudulent pricing practices, uses Green Van Lines, DOES NOT COMMUNICATE, and is dishonest about moving/delivery dates. Look up these companies on FMSCA's website (Domestics DOT #: 3425548; Green Van Lines DOT # (note they are under One Stop): 2642285 click on the company name). I wish I knew about this site before hiring a company, hopefully this will save someone else the trouble and stress we've endured throughout the moving process.
The mover showed up with two friends to help, who were not movers. They showed up 5-6 hours late without any communication. They did not have tools. Did not properly wrap all items and wrapped some items in some weird plastic wrap. When the movers showed up they demanded that the costs would be over double after the truck was loaded. Everything that was moved was on the invoice with Domestic and was accounted for. They also were trying to get the money in full (cash/post office order) at that time of loading, which I did not pay. They left the place a mess. It was an absolute horrible experience!
Domestic would not tell us what additional items we had moved that nearly doubled our moving costs and we were forced to pay the additional money to get our things back. We tried for 7 weeks to get a solid delivery date. Just like with the pick-up, we were lied to and told they would be coming on X day and they never showed. The company would not answer the phone on the days we were told they would be here.
Finally, we got our things delivered and EVERY piece of wooden furniture is damaged. All furniture is less than 2 years old and has serious damage that cannot be hidden or fixed. Thousands of dollars worth of damage as the items are high quality furniture.
We did not have the movers bring the items into the house because when the movers came to load our things, they made such a mess of the place that I did not want to deal with that in my home. We will take on the added expense of hiring someone local to help us.
The only saving grace from this whole experience was the driver/movers from Green Van Lines on the delivery-side were different people who were nice and respectful of our things.
All in all it was a terrible experience that could have been avoided by good communication, fair pricing practices, and movers who are trained properly to move items and care for them.

Run far away. Don’t buy their pitch
Run away. I signed a contract for pickup either 25th or 26th of July. My closing date on my old home was July 27th. By the 24th and having gotten no call to confirm pickup I contacted the sales agent. He said he’d get right back to me. After that he stopped taking calls, or responding to texts and emails. On the 26th Anthony hdd we guy in charge of this shady place calls and says no one is coming. The earliest they can get there is the 28th. That’s after my closing. I got hit with a almost $700.00 in costs for missing the closing. Anthony then blamed the company that picked us up. This was the first time I learned Domestic wasn’t even a moving company. I contacted that company and they provided documentation that they were never asked to pick us up until that Monday the 26th. When I finally got Anthony back on the phone after a week of no return calls he said he never heard of the salesman who sold me the move. He must be another contractor. He claimed my contract was for the 28th. That’s total BS and. I’ve got the contract to prove it. Then he claimed that since they eventually did get us picked up that changed the contract and means I accepted thdd Ed change. Again legally total BS. I had no option.but to wait until the 28th. It’s not like I could call a mover on the 26th and asked to be picked up in 30 minutes. It’s not Uber. Now I’m left to file suit and a complaint with the State Attorney.

Total scam
Total scam, they are not a registered moving company. Look them up, and don't use this company. They have complaints for holding people's belongings hostage. I was told I had full coverage insurance, when I wanted to file a claim no one took my calls.

Disappointed and Furious
DMC is a broker, nothing more. Drivers & Dispatchers are all subcontracted, lower quality and dishonest. DMC's sister company is "Selective Van Lines" and together they form a terrible moving company combination - extremely difficult to get a hold of once they have your goods, lie about delivery dates, hold your stuff hostage, and do not delivery your entire load (yes, they kept some of it). Do your homework and check their DOT status on fmcsa.dot.gov and keep digging -wish we did. Biggest mistake of our lives.
