Long-distance move from California to Texas

Complete Scam.

Read past the fake reviews and see exactly what this company does:

1. Low ball the quote so you sign.

2. Hurries through details that you might be charged more.

3. Upon delivery asks for an additional fee that makes the total bill 2X of the quote.

Very very unethical. Wouldn't be surprised to see lawsuits.

Service cost: $2500

Long-distance move from Birmingham, AL to Denver, CO

Dishonest.

DONT USE THIS COMPANY. THEY ARE LIARS!!

They sent a truck that was only 2/3 the size they promised. Left many of my items behind and couldn't have cared less. I called and email and complained and they refuse to do anything or even refund any money. I lost $3,000 worth of furniture and the POS are thieves.

Long-distance move from Davis, CA to Fargo, ND

Book directly with a carrier instead: Budget=hidden fees, poor service.

Budget charged a last minute fee and held my possessions hostage. They should have informed me of the fee ahead of time. They also waited to schedule my delivery until 11AM the day of, rather than the day before or first thing in the morning. This made my desired drop-off window of 8AM-noon impossible.

Long-distance move from Lexington, KY to Durham, NH

KY to NH move.

Organized move, initial cost 2100 turns out 2400. Nickel and dime you to death. Charge by foot to walk to your door. User beware. Assume your cost will be 1000 more than contract. Charge for everything.

Long-distance move from Oregon to West Virginia

They are rip-off artists

Please do not do business with this company, they are a complete scam. They will attempt to get more money from you by overcharging you for space that was not even used. They lied and said that their managers don’t have direct lines in place. The employees name is Brian Bailey, he is a scam artist and a liar, they are crooks.

Long-distance move from Los Angeles, CA to Chicago, IL

Horrible horrible sevice. please avoid (los angeles to chicago)

I can't stress what a negative experience I've had with them. ignoring my calls. called me 10 hours before my move to cancel because the truck "broke down" calling them back and they keep ignoring me. Literally just trying to get a refund. When i finally got a hold of someone she said i can take your name/# down and we can call you in a few days? i move tomorrow. Don't use them unless you want to stress the entire process.
