Long-distance move from Houston, TX to Charlotte, NC

Smooth Cross-State Move with Excellent Coordination

I recently used Safe Ship Moving

Services for a cross-state move from Houston, TX to Charlotte, NC, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Sarah, the coordinator, was amazing from start to finish. She kept me informed every step of the way and made sure everything stayed on schedule. The moving crew was professional, careful with all my belongings, and worked quickly without cutting corners. What could have been a stressful move turned out to be completely smooth thanks to their team. I'd highly recommend Safe Ship Moving Services to anyone planning a big move.

Long-distance move from Dallas, TX to Albany, NY

Moving from Texas to New York

I recently used this company for my relocation, and overall, my experience was mixed but mostly positive. The team was exceptionally efficient and professional in handling the move.

However, one aspect that was disappointing was the increase in price on the day of the move. This unexpected increase created some frustration and added stress to an already hectic day.

While the price change was an unfortunate hiccup, the efficiency and professionalism of the moving crew cannot be overlooked. If you are considering using this company, I would recommend clarifying all potential costs in advance to avoid any surprises. Despite this issue, their ability to handle the move smoothly and promptly was commendable.

BEWARE!! This broker is hiring unprofessional movers!!

Movers Beware! Avoid Safe Ship Moving Services at All Costs!

I recently had a horrific experience with Safe Ship Moving Services. Broker Kevin Levy was hired to move my apartment, but their services were nothing short of disastrous. Not only did they recklessly transport my bed, mattress, table, and coffee table unsecured on the outside of the moving truck, but they also damaged nearly every piece of furniture I owned.

To make matters worse, I've been completely ignored by their customer service. They've refused to return my calls or address the damage they caused. Beware of their deceptive insurance policy. It offers a whopping .60 cents per pound per item, making it virtually worthless in the event of damage. It's clear they count on customers not bothering to file claims.

I urge you to avoid Safe Ship Moving Services at all costs. Their negligence and lack of accountability are unacceptable.

I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience. It’s deeply concerning that the handling of your belongings and the level of communication from customer service fell far short of what you expected. At Safe Ship Moving Services, we take such feedback very seriously, as it is our goal to ensure that every customer’s move is handled with the utmost care and professionalism.

Firstly, regarding the transportation of your items, it’s absolutely unacceptable for your furniture to be transported in an insecure manner. While Safe Ship Moving acts as a broker, coordinating moves with carriers, we understand that the carriers we work with are expected to uphold the highest standards of care. The damage you described should never occur, and we deeply regret that this was your experience.

Secondly, I understand the frustration with the insurance policy. The industry standard valuation coverage of $0.60 per pound per item is often insufficient for high-value items, and we always encourage customers to consider purchasing additional insurance to ensure their belongings are adequately protected. However, the lack of response from our customer service team is not excusable. We strive to be responsive and helpful, particularly when issues arise.

Please reach out to us directly at your earliest convenience so that we can address the damage to your items and guide you through the claims process.

Again, I apologize for the experience you had and assure you that this feedback is being taken seriously to prevent such incidents in the future. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Long-distance move from Yucaipa, CA to Salem, OR

Successful move

We were very impressed about the efficiency and professionalism on the moving team at both the Yucaipa home and the Salem home. Our furniture was carefully wrapped and loaded. The boxes and other items were higher than expected but the team was able to accommodate the needs and get all items to us. They arrived at the appointment time range with the call when they were near. Also a delivery time that we could be at the house was scheduled and they arrived right on time.

Only suggestion would be to have the furniture moved into rooms before the boxes. The team needed to move boxes so furniture could be put in the right location within the room. All team members were professional and helpful.

Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience! We’re delighted to hear that the moving team exceeded your expectations in terms of efficiency, professionalism, and care for your belongings. It’s great to know that your furniture was carefully wrapped and loaded, and that the team was able to handle the higher-than-expected number of boxes while ensuring everything arrived safely and on time. We also appreciate your acknowledgment of their punctuality and communication during the process—these are values we strive to uphold.

Your suggestion regarding the order of unloading—placing furniture before boxes—is an excellent point, and we’ll be sure to pass this feedback along to the team for future moves. Ensuring that furniture is positioned first can indeed make the unpacking process smoother, and we value this insight as we continuously work to enhance the moving experience.

Thank you again for choosing Safe Ship Moving Services and for recognizing the hard work of the moving team. If there’s anything more we can do to assist you, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Wishing you all the best in your new home!

Local move from Muenster, TX to Houston, TX

Excellent job

Cesar Javier Rolando and his 2 teammates with Cobra Van Lines Moving Systems did a fantastic job. They packed our entire household in 2.5 hours. They were very strong and able to manage our boxes and furniture with ease. They were professional and clearly had a lot of experience. They were all personable. They loaded our household, drove 320 miles, made multiple stops and unloaded at our new home all in one day. Lastly, they were very kind to my elderly parents. Would highly recommend them.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It's wonderful to hear that the moving team from Cobra Van Lines Moving Systems provided such exceptional service. Packing an entire household in just 2.5 hours is an impressive feat, and it speaks volumes about their professionalism and efficiency. Their ability to handle your belongings with care, all while being personable and accommodating, truly highlights their expertise.

We’re especially glad to know they were considerate and kind to your elderly parents—those thoughtful gestures make all the difference during a move. Undertaking a 320-mile journey with multiple stops in one day and maintaining such high standards is no small task, and it’s clear this team went above and beyond to ensure your move was smooth and stress-free.

Your recommendation means a lot, and we’ll be sure to share this glowing feedback with the team. If you ever need assistance again in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out. Best wishes in your new home!

Local move from Corona Del Mar, CA to Healdsburg, CA

HORRIBLE, Boarder Line Scam

Safe Ship was the WORST moving experience I have ever had. Not only did they double the price within the cancelation window (I had made a very organized list by room for them from the beginning, and actually reduced the detailed list of items by an entire sectional couch and queen size bed and mattress), they also increased it again on the spot. They rushed me into signing the paperwork, and explained .60 on the dollar, not pound, and assured me that was plenty. I expect costs to shift a little, and a broken glass here or there but paid 2k extra for packers and some of the items were just thrown into the boxes with no wrapping at all. Many items are missing. They arrived 9 days after pick up (I was told 3-5 days), with 1 hour notice (I was told I would be given 48 hours notice, with a call 24 hours prior with a time window) at 7pm on a Sunday night. It took HOURS to unload, especially considering they had another entire home's worth of items in front of mine in the truck that they had to completely unload first to get to my things. They gave me multiple boxes of someone else's clothes, which I caught on the spot, but still have someone else's chandelier. I have called to return it and no one will get back to me. The lost multiple boxes and somehow also a large beautiful arm chair. I have two custom art pieces that are broken, a marble table shattered, all of my wine glasses, a broken counter stool, an entire garage storage piece is broken, cocktail glasses, multiple plates and platters, two floor lamps, and some of my clothes arrived ripped and moldy... and I just want my items back!!! I have reached out to customer service multiple times to see if they have found my items or even called, and they just keep telling me to file a claim and deal with the insurance company and could literally care less. A few photos are attached, including the state of the boxes on arrival. If I could give 0 stars I would – horrible experience and would never recommend Safe Ship to anyone!

We're deeply sorry to hear about the distressing experience you’ve had. Your feedback is valuable, and I want to address your concerns with the attention they deserve.

Firstly, regarding the increase in price, Safe Ship Moving Services, as a broker, provides initial estimates based on the inventory list provided. However, these estimates can be adjusted if there are changes in the volume of the items to be moved, as confirmed by the moving company executing the move. This is not the experience we aim to provide, and we apologize for any misunderstanding or miscommunication that may have occurred.

Regarding the handling and packing of your belongings, it is unacceptable that items were not properly wrapped and protected. This falls short of the standards we set with our partnered moving companies. The damages and missing items you described are deeply concerning, and we understand the frustration this has caused.

For the missing and damaged items, Safe Ship Moving Services encourages customers to file a claim with the insurance company to seek compensation. However, we understand that this process can be frustrating, especially when communication is lacking. I urge you to reach out to the claims department again with your concerns, and they will do their best to assist you through this process.

Your feedback highlights several areas where we need to improve. We are committed to addressing these issues to prevent future occurrences and improve the quality of service for all customers.

Please accept our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience and distress you have experienced. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, do not hesitate to contact us directly. Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention.

Long-distance move from Springfield, MO to Moreno Valley, CA

Expensive and kept tacking on thousands

The man I originally spoke to was pushy and kept guilt tripping me for not booking at a certain time even though I said I couldn't move at any other time of the year. Communication was poor otherwise. After I had signed the contract and put down my deposit, they also kept tacking on LITERALLY THOUSANDS even though not much changed with the original inventory. I ended up paying about $5000 more than I originally was quoted.

They outsourced the actual moving process and they moved my possessions, which were for a 1 bedroom apartment and fit comfortably within a 10x15 storage unit, into an EIGHTEEN WHEELER and then charged me an extra $1050 for that since their giant truck wouldn't fit into the complex, which they knew about from the beginning.

On top of that, there was no consideration for my fragile items. The PLASTIC BOXES that were marked ALL OVER with "FRAGILE" were literally crushed and delivered/packed upside down. They also never put my TV in a TV box like I requested and PAID FOR.

Six of my furniture items were also broken and will have to be replaced.

I'm truly sorry to hear about your frustrating experience, and I want to address each of your concerns with the care and attention they deserve. At Safe Ship Moving Services, we aim to provide a smooth and transparent moving process, so it's concerning to hear about the issues you faced.

Firstly, regarding the pushy communication and pressure to book at a certain time, that is not the standard of service we strive for. Your move should have been handled with understanding and flexibility, especially considering your specific timing constraints. I'll ensure that this feedback is passed along to the appropriate team so that we can work on improving our customer interactions.

As for the additional charges, I understand how frustrating it must have been to face unexpected costs. Safe Ship Moving provides estimates based on the information available at the time of booking, and sometimes adjustments are necessary due to changes in inventory. However, these adjustments should always be communicated clearly and transparently. If there were minimal changes in your inventory, this should have been reflected accurately, and I apologize if that was not the case.

Regarding the issue with the eighteen-wheeler and the associated charge, I recognize how disappointing it must have been to deal with this unexpected fee. We strive to anticipate such logistical challenges, and it sounds like there was a breakdown in communication regarding your apartment complex's limitations.

The handling of your belongings is another serious concern. Fragile items should be treated with the utmost care, and it's unacceptable that your boxes were crushed, mishandled, and your TV was not properly packed despite your specific request and payment for that service. The damage to your furniture is equally troubling, and I'm sorry for the distress this has caused.

To address the damage, I encourage you to file a claim as soon as possible. We want to ensure that you're compensated appropriately for the broken items and that this situation is resolved to your satisfaction.

While Safe Ship Moving acts as a broker and partners with moving companies to facilitate the physical move, we hold our partners to high standards. Your feedback will be instrumental in ensuring that such issues are addressed and that future customers do not encounter similar problems.

Again, I apologize for the experience you had, and I appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Please don't hesitate to reach out directly if you need further assistance or guidance on the claims process. We're here to support you.

Review Exceptional Moving Experience with Safe Ship!

I recently had the pleasure of using Safe Ship for my move, and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a moving company. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth and efficient, thanks to the incredible moving crew.

The team arrived right on time, fully prepared with all the necessary equipment and a positive attitude. They took the time to assess what needed to be moved and created a clear plan to ensure everything would go seamlessly. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident as they carefully packed and loaded my belongings, treating each item as if it were their own.

What impressed me the most was how well they communicated throughout the process. They kept me informed every step of the way, which really put my mind at ease. Even when faced with a few unexpected challenges, they handled them with ease and a smile, showcasing their expertise and commitment to customer satisfaction.

Once we arrived at the new location, the crew worked efficiently to unload and set up my belongings exactly where I wanted them. They even took the time to ask for my input, ensuring everything was to my liking.

Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience with Safe Ship. The moving crew was not only efficient but also friendly and respectful. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a hassle-free moving experience. They truly exceeded my expectations! Thank you, Safe Ship, for making my m

Long-distance move from San Diego, CA to Richland, WA

Wonderful Service

Safe ship has turned a 1200 mile nightmare into a manageable experience. We seemed priced out of professional movers, but Safe Ship's great prices and veteran's discount really saved our family time and money. We received a wonderful team of three; Tim, Jorge and Carlos who were quick, careful and genuinely enjoyable to speak with. They didn't have any problems from the smallest box to our piano and were happy to help us out even though our original estimation of how much we would be packing came quite a bit lower than what they actually had to move. I would absolutely use them again if we receive the same excellent quality of service on delivery at our new home.

Great Movers!!

Eric and the team Plymouth Mover were on time, extremely professional, and wrapped all of our goods with care. I would hire them again in a heartbeat! All the guys got along and we're a pleasure to work with. They work extremely careful, wrapping in a blankets first and then completely using moving wrap all around it.

Eric was very polite and explained everything very well.
