Blue Sky Van Lines

Talk about bait and switch. So I got a quote from them for a move from California to Florida pan handle. Got a 2500 dollar quote with 200 dollar law enforcement discount. Was happy no problem. Day of move movers are late by 3 hours in a pensky no uniform the show up and low and behold bam 900 more dollars added and they didn't even take everything I had Been quoted for. I call blue sky next day they throw me off to a 3rd party customer service who says that the price is the price. Movers show up today and are handling my stuff like its worth nothing. Never will I use this service again if this is how you treat law enforcement. Absolutely horrified with this service do not use them you will not be happy.

Overcharged by $1200. I used to have to deal with bad customers or whiney customers, so it is very rare for me to ever complain. Most of the time it's not worth it. While what happened to me can never be recovered, I write this review because I want you and your family to be saved from such a loss. Blue Sky took complete advantage of me. In the midst of a loved one's death and funeral, I also had to move. I didn't think anyone would be so wrong and crooked to use this time to scam you, but unfortunately I was wrong. I don't even have the energy to begin to write all the tragic things they did, but I just want to beg you not to use them. I have been praying that they would not be able to scam anymore people. Please for the sake of your family, belongings, memories, and yes money (they will always charge double after it's too late to find someone else,) please stay away from them and spread this word. I will give one example. An old lady's box was delivered you house. It was filled with thousands of dollars (probably more) worth of jewelry, diamond rings, sewing kits etc. I told the movers it was not mine and they told me to throw it away or donate to Goodwill. I begged them to try to figure out who's things they were due to the sentimental value of the items, they simply said not their problem.

Blue Sky Van Lines really came in and saved the day for me and my family. It turns out we ended up closing on our home significantly earlier than we thought we would. So early in fact we didn’t actually have a new house to move into yet. We really didn’t want to miss out of this offer however (which was well above our asking price in case you were wondering), so we went ahead and closed the deal. This however, meant we needed to be out of our house within two weeks. So we looked for a good moving company to help us out and we found this one. They offer up to 35 days of free storage for your stuff, which was perfect for us, as it ended up taking us exactly 24 days to find and close on our new house. In the mean time however, we stayed at a hotel and we took solace in the fact that our belongings were in a climate controlled environment with no direct public access and under 24/7 surveillance. When you’re going though a stressful move, it’s important you have people there for you that you trust and can rely upon, and this company very clearly allows for both. I’m really pleased with the level of service I received from this company and am thrilled with their level of commitment to their customer’s happiness and satisfaction, even in a difficult situation like ours.

Do not believe anything RickTony says. nothing turned out true about the service they said. please read the review carefully and stay away from this movers.
1) you will receive a reasonable quote initially, but then it will go high as much as double. you will hear charges those were never discussed before but you will not have any option other than paying it, since you will get those charges when the movers comes to pick up your stuff and you will not have any other option left.
2) they will make you false promises based on your need, even though it says otherwise on the agreement and then you will ask you to follow the agreement since you signed it already.
3) the furnitureboxes were handled very poorly. they broke my wooden corner table which means it was not handled with care at all. my glass sets were broken too even though the boxes were marked as fragile.
4) you will get a regular follow up call until you make payment, once the deal is done hard to reach them. i've sent many emails for justification for these damages but I have not received any email from anyone so far. i'm going to file complaints also.

feel free to email me for more details. I would love to share my personal experience in detail.

Please don't hire this mover!! They are a bunch of thieves and scammers.!!
I have hired them for my move from Phoenix Arizona to SF Bay area. they have delivered my stuff two months late and charged me for storage
They stole my TV, Xbox, Soundbar, furniture decoration, light stand, my three expensive suits and other valuable stuff. My TV stand glass came broken.They have opened the packed cartons and stole the valuable stuff.
I fond Virginia and Florida license plate inside packed carton which doesn't belong to me
This is the worst experience I ever had with any company. Since Insurance is based on the weight of your luggage you won't be able to get much money back from insurance company.
If you care about your valuable items then don't hire blue sky van lines.

This company is a BIG SCAM. It’s a torture dealing with such unprofessional staff. When they came to pick up our stuff they charged way more than the price which was mentioned in the quote. We had no other choice but to go with this company since there was no time left to look for another company. I’m still stuck with this company. It’s been more than 30 days now and my stuff has not been delivered. Every single time they give different excuses on the phone and lie that it will be loaded today. Now they are telling there’s no driver available. I’m pregnant and I have to bear this torture. I’m staying without my furniture,kitchen stuff and so much more stuff that was important. I can’t buy everything again and all I can do is wait for them. The fact is I don’t even know if they still have my stuff or they just lost it.
They make sure that you hire them by talking all nicely and giving you false estimates for the move and wrong delivery/pickup dates. PLEASE ITS A REQUEST don’t fall in this trap. Im very disappointed.

This company is WORST!! I am stating again this moving company is WORST!!
I moved my 13-14 mid size boxes from Torrance,CA to Plano,TX they offered me quote of $1000. However the day they came & pickup they charged 265$ additional saying extra steps & distances. They will keep their vehicles away from your home so that they can charge additional amount. They said they accept check but on the day when pickup came they ask for ALL CASH amount!!.
The guys came for pickup were pathetic , so rough behavior..!!
After they pickup they told me it will be delivered in 7 days.. my boxes got delivered after 15 days. Customer service will stop respond to your call.!!
The day they delivered, the delivery guy came with a 18 wheeler truck..then he didn't come inside my apartment even though there were enough space. that guy said he can not carry my boxes to my door step. He said if you want he will come next day with small truck & he will charge $500-800 extra. I refused..,that guy dropped all my boxes at main road itself..
Not even carried to distance which was in contract..
Worst company, never kept promises. worst service , worst Customer Care.
Never go with this moving services.

Do not use these people. They will be very nice at first then once you say you will move with them they start uping your price and give you the run around. I signed a binding agreeement with all needed information filled out. The contract even said " not able to increase price". Also in the contract is listed my insurance prices and then they told me they don't do insurance. After it was signed they called me and told me they need to increase the price again because they had no other pick ups in that location so it was going to be $500 more from already a price increase of $300 for an increase of location services. They told me after the binding contract that was the final price but they lied. When I asked the girl to speak to her manager she told me she was the manager, then I said ok let me speak to your boss and she said she was the boss. So when I asked if she reported to anyone she said no. I told her how can they change a binding contract and she told me they could do whatever they want. Do not use this company they are not truthful and add extra costs to your end contact. My price nearly doubled from the original offer and contract with no stuff added or change of locations. They started out at $1000 to move less than a small storage unit to $1750. I don't understand how this company is in business. I wish zero stars was an option.

The absolute worst part of my move.. and I'm still dealing with them because they stole items from me that I've been trying to get back for 2 months now!! Including my diplomas and a priceless painting by my grandmother.

They also broke a dresser that I've managed to move twice myself without leaving a scratch. I had to send in an official claim for that since it is damaged beyond repair.

Almost every box was destroyed when it was delivered. You could literally reach inside them without ever taking the tape off.

Once they had my business and deposit I never heard from them until the day before I was expecting to move when I basically had to call them every hour and leave a message before anyone bothered responding to let me know what time to expect the truck or even if it would be that day.

SO unprofessional. Not one person wears any sort of uniform or company shirt. I'm trusting all of my possessions to you, the most effective and inexpensive customer service element would be a t-shirt with a company logo. Or perhaps a company truck! When that Enterprise rental truck rounded the corner and four men got out in ratty jeans and asked to enter my home and take my stuff.. yeah, that's a horrible moment that I immediately regretted. Also, please explain to me why I had to have $600 cash at time of delivery. If that doesn't send up every red flag in your body then something is terribly wrong with you. They already had all of my stuff on the truck and I was stuck. SUCH an awful experience.

Do yourself a favor and don't even bother talking to them. They need to be shut down.

Well, if there was a zero this company would get it! PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! They are crooks, everyone of them. It starts off with Carlos being so sweet and saying the cost to go to San Francisco would be $1500. Well, do not believe what anyone tells you. It is all a lie. They charged me $500 extra because he had to walk an extra 300 feet. Yes it was in the contract in small print that no one would see and no one would know to ask that. They give you a flight of stairs free. But we did not have any flights. So, it gets worse. We asked for a two day delivery after our free storage for a month. They told us after we signed on, you have anywhere from 7-21 days (not sure of number) of a day they will give you for delivery. So we had to pay an extra $1000 to have an exact delivery within 48 hours.
Well, once the stuff came, they broke anything that was glass. Needless to say, we paid extra for that glass to get there safely!! They broke a lamp too. Chipped my daughter desk after it arrived because he was to lazy to ask his partner for help lifting it.
This company had my daughter and me in tears. They are all Crooks, from the men who picked up the furniture, who even added wrong to try to scam my daughter by doing wrong math with a calculator by adding another $500. Good thing my daughter caught that. He pretended it was an innocent math mistake.
I have never had such a horrible experience. I spoke to a manager Rachel (I think that was her name). I was so upset with her I did not say nice words to her. She even hung up on me and would not answer any of my calls.
Please this is a warning to stay away from this company.
Overall expense for a $1500 one bedroom move ended up costing $3200 and most was in poor shape after it arrived.
