Long-distance move from Florida to Minnesota

Moved my 80 year old mother

They contracted out the move. The delivery date kept getting delayed and many items were damaged or lost. They tried to charge an extra $1000. Luckily I showed or they would have taken advantage of her. Insurance has been a nightmare.

The actual movers will rip you off

Moving direct van lines did a decent job (except for one guy named Jonathan — nasty guy) but the actual movers themselves will rip you off. The guy who came to pick up in California was forthright — he said he wanted a tip (although he did twist my arm for it) while the guy (his name is Jamshed Tolibov, based in the NYC area, Brooklyn I believe) who came to drop off the stuff was giving some BS reason about long carry and charged me an extra $275 (when I challenged him saying that the pickup guys did a longer carry (longer than at destination) and didn’t charge he said he’d measure it, I was like yeah go for it and he didn’t) which I paid for with Venmo (screenshot attached) since I didn’t have cash. And on top of it he wanted a tip! Also, he didn’t provide very great service, tried to leave my mattress by the elevator on some nasty carpet and had to be asked repeatedly to move it. He also tried to downplay damage — what a laugh riot! Remember the name JAMSHED TOLIBOV — he will not be professional but will RIP YOU OFF. I am going to contact moving direct. Let’s see what they do now.

Long-distance move from Cumberland Center, ME to Vernal, UT

Movers were friendly and professional

Exceptional service. These guys were like lightning bolts, zooming through my move in record time. They carefully wrapped my furniture in blankets and plastic wrap, ensuring it arrived at my new place without a scratch. They even took the time to place foam padding on the corners of my delicate wooden dresser to prevent any bumps. The movers were friendly and professional.

Long-distance move from Baton Rouge, LA to Farmington, NH

Stellar job!!

I was so impressed with the team from Moving Direct Van Lines LLC. They were bang on time and really friendly to deal with. Everything was wrapped and packed safely, and they did a great job disassembling and reassembling our large sofa and king-size bed. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they placed every box and item where we asked. Our vendors were actually two hours late leaving our new property, but the team was happy to wait. The three of them were brilliant and made what could have been a stressful day so much easier - almost enjoyable. Thank you!

Long-distance move from Clanton, AL to Woodside, NY

We wont hesitate to recommend!!

Both William and Michael performed superbly. They arrived right on time, as planned. They were really helpful, educational, and productive. They waited patiently as we worked out the kinks in our plans for the new home. You may be sure that I will recommend your services to everyone I know who is looking to relocate. It's remarkable in every respect.

Long-distance move from Pennsylvania to North Carolina

Low Ball estimate, overcharging on delivery.

I was assured there would be no suprises by my salesman John.
The pickup driver arrived 2 days late.
After the truck was loaded and wife packed and ready to leave, Driver advised that now the cost to move would be $2000 more than quoted.
The delivery drive was also 2 days late, but since we did not have the extra $200 opted for the free storage.
No word from the company for over 30 days. Simon said that if we pay the balance in cash $3060 instead of the original $1060, they will waive the storage, which was 30 days free, release the load for pick up by us, or they will charge storage, reload and delivery charges. Really bad customer service. and communications sucks. Now the BBB says Moving Direct is no longer in business to seek legal advise for outstanding issues. Yea right, we are living in an empty house with out our stuff.

Long-distance move from Arlee, MT to Waco, TX

Use Them Again

The driver was organized well ahead of time and contacted me about the documents needed to collect the goods. He stayed in contact to keep me up to date on arrival time and was very friendly when he arrived. The goods arrived in perfect condition. Moving Direct Van Lines was also very fast to respond to my emails. Can’t say anything negative about them. Recommend them to all.

Long-distance move from Minnesota to Arizona

Add $$ and destroyed property

If I could have given A- number I would have. This move cost me $2,600 more than originally quoted, and I had not added anything. Even though Justin replaced my TV, there was so much more damage. Lamps were destroyed, my dining room table was gouged, my coffee table was gouged, my bike tires were punctured, my bed was ripped apart, I could go on. I asked for a claim for. It's 2 months later and I haven't received it. This was the most disastrous experience of my life. Sorry Justin. It was a nightmare in moving. Replacing my TV was honorable, but the rest of the damage was just too much. For what I paid for this move, I thought I could expect a little respect for my property.

Deb and I have had extensive talks about what has happened with her move. 1. We as a company pride ourselves in transparency and we tell our customers about adding items and as items are added the price will go up we do not hide behind that. 2. As for her damages i will not deny this has happened and i have done more than i assure you any owner in the moving industry would do i first Replaced her used tv that was broken in transit with a brand new TV. I also stayed in constant contact with deb Via Email and told her to gather prices and cost of repairs on any damages and as the TV i would make right as the owner none of which was sent to me instead this review was written. Unfortunately i can not prevent damages that happen in transit but as an owner i can make things right which is what i have tried to do. Deb has all my contact information and i do not hide from this i will gladly work with her and any customer to rectify any situation.

Terrible Experience

I have had a terrible experience and was told multiple times that they would figure out compensation. My items were picked up late, delivered late, not put back together at the new house and many not even unwrapped. I called repeatedly and they just kept having me tell my story to another person who always said they'd figure out compensation. I spoke to Jodie several times and she was one of the many people who told me they would speak to upper management to get this resolved.

Original Quote - $8000 Charged an additional $4000 at pick up because I told them I needed beds moved but didn't specify that the beds would have a mattress and things like that. It was a small two bedroom apartment, but I wanted premium service so I was willing to pay the $8000.

I want compensation for all the items not put back together including all my outdoor furniture, couch, etc. Mattress was left in the wrapping paper on the living room floor. The broken items, I will go through insurance. They also left indoor furniture on the patio which of course got weather ruined and my outdoor furniture all broken wrapped or left in the boxes. Hopefully they will contact me for compensation. I hate having to leave a review like this. I requested $3500 back. I also want half of the extra $4000 back because many of the items they charged me extra for arrived broken or not put together.

Long-distance move from Phoenix, AZ to Frederick, MD

Moving Direct - Professional and efficient all the way through!

Drivers on both sides were fantastic- Crews on both sides great but destination crew was literally the best I've ever seen- care for our belongings, amazing attitude, care for our home, great communication. Origin crew was great-managed well but a lot of guys and not so intuitive - Sales agent was correct on his communications up front and quote was accurate and moderate. A small crew for our 3400 sq ft home plus garage, were so professional and calming. Our new house at 4,000' altitude with a difficult driveway- one single door for 3 stories and no garage- so our tools and garage cabinets had to go to the bottom floor- these 3 handled every step with poise like I've never seen. And they weigh probably 380lb between all 3 of them- amazing ballet of moving we witnessed, with smiles and light hearted humor- these 3 took a normally crazy stressful process and made it painless and a pleasure. My wife and I were so happy during and at the end of the move- can't thank this team enough!
