Long-distance move from Houston, TX to San Francisco, CA

Moving to CA.

I used Madison for my move from Houston, Texas, to San Fransico. I was pleased with their service. My sales rep Brooke, was great at walking me through the moving process and she was very realistic in terms of what to expect. Other movers I spoke with were trying to pressure me to give them a deposit. I would use these guys again if needed.

Long-distance move from Coeur D Alene, ID to Gettysburg, PA

Worst movers!

This was a nightmare from beginning to end. In 48 years of marriage I have moved 8 times before this move. None were the horrific experience this was.
I was over charged. Stolen from. Boxes were gone through as well as file boxes broken into. Things on my inventory were purposely trashed or left behind because the movers didn’t want to be bothered.
At my new home the drivers were rude and wanted more money. They got into an argument with my new neighbor and told them to mind their own business. They dumped boxes in one room up to the ceiling. Boxes were upside down. Fragile meant nothing to them.
People should know Madison VANLINES subcontracts out to other transport companies. They do not check those companies to see how reputable they are. You could end up with a bunch of thugs like I did.

Madison- The most Professional moving co. Hands Down!!

Madison just delivered all of our belongings and I just want to say thank you! Thank you for calming me down and being there as I went into breakdown mode with the whole move situation. This was a tough move for us and I am thankful to everyone at Madison Vanlines that took time to explain the process and was there through the whole process. The movers were respectful, organized and professional . So much stress and anxiety can be relieved by choosing the right mover! I highly recommend Madison Vanlines!

Long-distance move from Boston, MA to Chicago, IL

They tried to get me to sign a gag order!

I have many complaints about my interaction with Madison Van Lines, but for brevity I will summarize 2 reasons why you should NOT hire this company. (1) They tried to get me to sign a gag order, and (2) they hire local carriers to move your items and therefore take zero responsibility for anything that goes wrong during your move. Move info for those interested…

(1) After 2 months of back and forth, they offered me only $250 for well over $2,000 of damaged and lost items. However, this was under the condition that I sign a legal document forbidding ANYTHING negative comments, by ANY method of communication, FOREVER. I have the document to prove it. How dishonest a business practice is that? I suspect there would be many more negative reviews online if the company did not have this policy.

(2) They refuse to take responsibility for anything that happens during your move. This is because they are simply a logistics company. They hire local movers to actually move your items, and claim they have no legal responsibility for anything the movers do. They also will not provide you with the name of the moving company, until the day of your move. If ANYTHING goes wrong with your move, good luck getting them to take responsibility for it.

Long-distance move from New Jersey to North Carolina

A highly dishonest moving company.

We recently hired this company who pretends to be a family owned company and not a broker. That was the first lie. Mr. Kaplan , an employee, is a major liar. He pretends to be supportive but when you try to communicate with the company you get the supreme runaround. The company did not abide by the first agreed upon moving date. This was an out of state move involving a house closing and added more stress then imagined.The first binding quote was changed once the movers picked up the furniture . The movers wanted more money then Mr. Kaplan told me to have available via a tellers check. Each individual's company in this train of deception blamed the other company. Upon delivery, the third company arrived at 8pm to a storage facility and tried to shake us down for $100 more because the storage unit was on the interior. The contract specifically indicated that there would be an extra charge if they had to carry the items more then 75feet. At most it was an additional 20 feet from the truck. On mover yelled in my face and said he would not move the items off the truck unless we paid them $100 cash. They were intimidating and adiment! Luckily, a relative was near by so we could get the money inspite of the fact that we were told the balance due had to be via a postal money order. We are advised of this change only hours before the move. This was one of the most stressful deceptive experience I have ever had. I would never ever recommend this company to anyone !!
It was one lie and deception after the next. It is criminal!!

Long-distance move from Cordova, TN to Las Vegas, NV

Excellent Moving Service.

Madison just completed our move and I am pleasantly surprised that all went better than I ever thought possible! Communication with my coordinator was comforting throughout the entire process.  Our's was a big move with many details that took time and planning with a knowledgeable coordinator.  This review is the least I can do! Thanks Madison Van Lines!

Long-distance move from Portland, OR to Fort Lauderdale, FL

Great people.

​This is not something I ever take​ ​time to do but​ ​is the leas​t​ I can do for this company. Madison​ ​Van Lines has helped me and my family tremendously
by taking such care of our personal items. I was terrified having the responsibility​ ​of choosing a mover to move us over 2000 miles!​​ It was clear right away that my sales rep was genuinely confident​ ​and seemed to take a lot of pride in the company which ​​I liked right away.​​.

Long-distance move from California to Georgia

Highly Recommend.

I have made many moves that my employer took care of so this was the first move I had to deal with and pay for. This was too much for any person to deal with! The sale of my home, retiring, and buying a new home for the last time. Very emotional for my wife who was constantly calling our sales rep at Madison Van Lines and actually getting them on the phone when needed! Well, delivery has taken place recently and this is also the first time I have done a review for any company. I highly recommend this company.

Long-distance move from Wisconsin to New Jersey

My Move.

I hired Madison Van Lines after speaking to the sales associate Erika. Please ask for her if you contact them. My move was slightly over 900 miles from Wisconsin to New Jersey. She put me completely at ease. The move went smooth, no problems, no hidden costs. The movers packed me up on Friday and my things arrived on Tuesday, several days earlier than I thought. From beginning to end everything went great.I'm a very happy satisfied customer!

Long-distance move from New York to Florida

Worst Moving Broker!!

Do NOT use Madison Van Lines!! They are a broker that claims to be highly skilled and professional, but they are probably the worst moving company with whom I've ever had the misfortune of working. I recently used them to move from NY to FL. I provided my inventory with exact dimensions of everything, including all boxes and furniture. I was quoted a final price of $1,906. I even confirmed with their representative Jill the day before my move my exact inventory, and she still said everything would be $1,906. To my surprise, when NYC Movers came to pick up all of my belongings, I was told my price was actually $3,000! When I questioned this, I was told that even though my inventory was 100% correct, that the Madison Van Lines representative totally undercut my total cubic footage. After six weeks of going back and forth with them, they are now trying to deny any responsibility for this. They will ignore you in all hopes that you will just "go away". Well, I'm not "going away". I am moving forward with legal action against them, as they breached the contract and have been extremely unresponsive. I also submitted a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, as their unscrupulous and unethical/shady business practices need to be shutdown! Referring to these people as [EDIT] is an understatement. I don't want any other potential customers to fall victim to this horrible, deceptive moving broker, so beware! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!
