BUILT ON LIES A TOTAL HORRENDOUS NIGHTMARE
Please take your time to read this review I’m begging you. Every 1 star review you read on this company is TRUE and REAL. All the other “good” reviews are FAKE. If you check a different website it says that they’re “fake”. Please don’t make the same mistake I did. I’m begging you. A Disastrous Moving Experience. My recent move with MICHAEL the Manager/ Sunflower was chaotic and stressful. Every step of the process was fraught with issues. We were told by one of the movers that Michael isn’t even his real name it’s his “American name” whatever that’s supposed to mean. CASH ONLY ON PICK UP AND DELIVERY NO CREDIT CARD. The initial estimate was significantly lower than the final cost. Quoted $2,200 and TOTALED OVER $4,000 for a Studio apartment. Hidden fees and constant price increases left me feeling deceived and frustrated. Communication with the company was a constant struggle, with vague and inconsistent updates regarding the status of my belongings. The handling of my belongings was careless and disrespectful. Items were damaged during the move, including a broken shelf and a missing piece of out couch, missing table, missing ladder. The delays in delivery were significant it took 10 days, causing immense stress and inconvenience. Thank goodness we placed an AirTag in our luggage and tracked it the entire time. It was in Storage in Hollywood for 4 days then placed on a truck. NO PAID RECEIPTS, NO PAPERWORK PROVIDED. THEY WAIT TILL AFTER YOUR ITEMS ARE LOADED ON THE TRUCK TO PROVIDE YOUR NEW ESTIMATE. I asked them to take my items off immediately and they would not take them off unless I paid a $1,500 fee. I cannot emphasize enough how disappointed I was with Michael’s Moving's services. Their lack of professionalism, poor communication, and disregard for customer satisfaction. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. If you value your belongings and peace of mind, I urge you to CHOOSE a different moving company. EDIT 12/05/24: In regard to your reply - it doesn’t mean anything to me. You guys are BROKERS and SCAMMERS. Anyone reading this - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY EDIT 12/14/2024: Insurance coverage is a scam. Please search Anthem Claim Management (the website they use to file a claim) and you’ll see ALL their terrible reviews. And BTW anthem claim management states they aren’t the ones that will pay your claim, the moving company will. I will update once confirmed if they deny (which every other review says they’ve been rejected) EDIT 03/27/2025 : finally heard back from Anthem and all the decided to provide was $90. We at least lost $3,000 in damages and were told we have $10,000 in coverage. There is no longer a website for their business.
Response from Sunflower RelocationDec 5, 2024
Dear Kayla, We’re sorry to hear that you’re disappointed with your experience. However, we’d like to clarify a few key points regarding your move. First, our team provided clear communication throughout the process, including explaining the potential for price adjustments based on the actual inventory. Unfortunately, the increase in cost was due to additional items that were not included in the original inventory list you provided. We do everything we can to ensure accurate estimates, but when there are significant differences in the number of items or cubic footage, adjustments are necessary. We also want to point out that your move was picked up on time, and we provided a significant discount on your final quote to accommodate the situation. Additionally, payment methods, including the use of cash on pickup and delivery, were outlined in your contract. Our goal is always to ensure a smooth and transparent process, and we regret that you feel your experience didn’t reflect that. We take pride in delivering professional service and working closely with our clients to resolve any issues that may arise. If you have any further concerns or would like to discuss this matter directly, we are happy to assist.
