I found this company had decent reviews…
I found this company had decent reviews so I booked a move that was about 750 miles. The movers showed up on time to pick up my items but they claim the square footage was massively underestimated and said that for the amount of furniture I had, they would have to charge almost 2x what I was quoted. I ended up getting rid of some items rather than paying the higher charge which was extremely frustrating. Then, the movers did not show up to my new apartment on the scheduled day. I figured there would maybe be a few days to wait for the delivery. It is now a full week after the delivery date, no one has reached out with any updates. When I called to ask, I was told it will probably be another week. These are the sort of issues I was hoping to avoid by using a reputable moving company. I would stay away from this service, this has been a huge hassle.

Hi Jonathan, sorry to hear you had frustrations, definitely give us a call to work through them. If you check the email sent 1/30 2/1 2/5 or 2/9 stating: This is a binding price based on the inventory you provided, and services requested in the estimate. The only way this price will change is if you add any additional services or inventory items to your move. Based on your list we have you estimated at 370 cf: cubic feet. If at any time you require an additional space reservation or should your list of items take up more space, your binding rate shall remain the same as stated in your contract. Per your contract, your binding rate per cubic foot is $5.85: Additional services would be long carry over 100 ft from the truck to your door, flights of stairs over 12 steps on the exterior of your home, elevator services or packing. YOU are responsible to have all your boxes and fragile items packed, (I.E. glass tabletops, curio cabinets, TV’s Etc.) Unless specifically noted on your electronically signed order. We do offer ala Cart packing if you need, for an additional cost. Mattresses must be wrapped, and covers can be provided. Your arrival date is a 3-day window, we will confirm which day the pick-up will be up to 3 days prior to your first day or as late as the evening before your last day prior to the scheduled arrival date, along with a 3-hour estimated time of arrival. Your move date is flexible however, it is based on our availability. Please let us know of any date changes with as much advanced notice as possible to make sure we can accommodate you. Your delivery time frame is a window based on your first available delivery date and your destination, which is your F.A.D. Your F.A.D. is NOT your delivery date, it is the first date of your delivery window. If your household goods are being stored in our facility. Your FAD window will be applicable once you notify and confirm with the company that you are available to receive delivery. At that point we will schedule your items to be picked up from storage and once loaded your delivery window will begin. Expedited Delivery – If at any time should you be interested in receiving an expedited delivery, we offer this option at a flat rate per cubic foot. Should you select this option, your delivery window will be decreased by 50%. For example, if your delivery window was 7-14 days your expedited delivery window would now be 3 ½-7 days. This option can be added at any time prior to pick-up or delivery if storage services are included. REMINDERS – Due to the delivery time frames, we suggest that you do not ship any important documentation such as: passports, birth certificates, social security cards and any other personal identification. We also recommend that you do not pack any medications or medical equipment that will be needed during the time of transit. We also encourage that you do not transport any business or professional necessities. This includes but is not limited to, small electronic equipment, such as ipads, laptops, and computers that you would need immediate access to throughout the duration of pickup and delivery. It is strongly recommended to not schedule house closings the day after the last day of your arrival window because it is for arrival not job completion, leaving an extra day for unforeseen circumstances is always a best practice. $1080.30 - Credit card is only accepted for deposits in most instances, personal checks can be used on pick up when deliveries are scheduled to be longer than 3 business days, otherwise pick up and delivery must be a certified form of payment for direct deliveries. Deposits are nonrefundable for moves canceled on pickup day. I think would understand the information we told you to expect covers what we can interepret as the core of the frustrations you are experiencing.
