Honestly, I would give Zero stars if I could. I booked an out of state move with a company called Brightside Moving Group, and they apparently outsourced my move to Express Movers Services, Inc. to do the move. Over the phone when booking I said I needed approximately a 12-16 foot moving truck, I had multiple beds, dressers, nightstands, a hutch, shelves, and TV stand, in addition to boxed items - all of this was listed in my original quote. I was told the movers would come in, wrap my fragile items, take apart the furniture and load everything up for me, and this was all included in the price. None of that was true. The man that showed up reeked of alcohol, barely spoke english, and immediately started looking at my things saying I hadn't booked enough space. Even though the day before he arrived I confirmed the space with customer service from Brightside, and had condensed my items, including leaving behind a large dresser with a mirror, and TV stand. The man that came to my apartment did not measure ANYTHING just by looking he stated I needed to pay another $660, including $150 for wrapping my fragile items and dismantling furniture (which as I mentioned was supposed to be included in the original price). I told this man REPEATEDLY that I could not pay anymore money than I had already agreed to. I was moving out of an apartment that other members of my family were staying in, so I told him to take whatever he could for the original price and I would have the rest brought to me later, it could just stay there. This man refused to do so, and said if I did not pay the extra he was going to just leave, and I would lose my deposit of $940. Mind you, I had booked everything else for my move - shipping my car, and booking an RV to safely and comfortably move myself, my kids, and our animals, I could not have him just leave and have none of my things when I moved plus lose that $940, i had already spent SO MUCH money. He literally bullied me into paying the extra $660, but didn't actually give me extra space, because I still had to leave the 3rd dresser, 2 nightstands, a TV stand, and shelves that were in the original quote! Then, they assured me my belongings would be delivered in 5 days, BUT they were NOT delivered for 12 days! And when the delivery driver first messaged me he tried to say he couldn't pull a tractor trailer into the parking lot, which would've caused him to need to use a shuttle and cost me more money. I told him the man who delivered my car pulled his tractor trailer in so I didn't see why he couldn't... otherwise I don't think he would've even tried. I would give this company a 0 out of 10, and DO NOT RECOMMEND!!
