This company is horrible. They were not hired by me and became my mover after Amerisafe Van Lines made the initial contract and gave it to them. Arrived with a truck and eight packers who rushed through the process with no coordination. Damage to walls and door moldings while moving large items and everything thrown in boxes with no regard to anything they packed. Had approximately 1000 cubic feet of space left in trailer but charged for full 53’ trailer. Total cost $48,000. Writing this before they deliver to new residence, but anticipate continued bad experience. Cannot communicate with them and they provide no copies of any documents. Avoid this company like the plague.

DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. They will not make any effort to abide by the timing set in the contract. Their business practice is to get you in an impossible situation and then charge you. These guys showed up at my place on June 17. They smoked cigarettes and made personal phone calls all day. They took forever to load their truck--even after i had packed essentially the whole house and lobbed it up for them. On the admin side they are useless. on communicative--saying that there was no driver available and no plans to move my things. they then ghosted me--3 separate people at that company just stopped responding. now, they are supposed to show up this morning--which, by the way, is past their "maximum" amount of time. 10 hours ago, they texted me and said that they want another $1300 on top of $3700 in cash. it's absolutely insane. Find another company and save yourself the headache. This is criminal.

Rushmore Van Lines Inc. (US DOT #: 4086767) is an extremely bad company in the United States and the brokerage company, Safe Ship Moving Services (US DOT: 3475743), that assigned this company to my cross country move job is just as bad. Neither one of these companies should be allowed to move anything and that includes “roadkill.” Safe Ship Moving Service quote process is all scripted with a low amount to get your business and they will do and say anything to keep you until the cancellation period ends after they have a deposit. They did not disclose up front that they were a broke and they evidently did not vet the companies that they assign you to because my move was a total chaotic and stressful nightmare. I experienced numerous deceptions. 1) Low quote on your full inventory list to get your business with the intent to increase later. 2) Quality Assurance review of your full inventory lists a day or 2 before the move day to increase the price on a measure of cubic feet without coming out to measure the inventory. 3) Insurance is strongly discouraged or not mentioned at all during the contract setup process. 4) Pickup Movers are on time and will prepare your belonging with care; but the document is handwritten with terrible penmanship which increase the amount of time it takes to complete the packing and loading process. 5) Do not want to take a credit card on the move day even though you were told repeatedly by the broker company that they accept all major credit cards. 6) Unclear delivery date. 7) Customer service only adds to the nightmare. Whereas, you might get one customer service representative that is slightly helpful and concerned about your missing and damaged possessions most will be complicit in the company’s disgraceful moving practices. 8) Delivery drivers will request that you meet them at a Walmart to pick up your belonging. 9) Delivery drivers will call you to complain that they cannot navigate a trailer on your street and then want to add an addition fee to delivery your items to the contacted location. 10) Missing, broken and damaged items when you finally get the delivery. 11) Delivery drivers will not sign the Delivery BOL Documentation unless you force then to by withholding payment. In my final analysis Ship Moving Services and Rushmore Van Lines Inc. companies are outrageously untrustworthy. So, please do not trust them with your money nor possessions.
