      Transit Moving Systems was incredible!!!!!

      The team at Transit Moving Systems was incredible and turned what could have been a traumatic experience into a pleasant one. These professionals quickly understood my needs, from the initial assessment and paperwork with Alexander to the secure packing of my belongings. The entire process was easy, quick, clean, and straightforward. They will be my number one choice if I have to move again. I highly recommend them!

    • They did it all in a blink of an eye.

      Brave Movers

      My father and I got ditched on the day of moving by the movers’ company we booked, we still had to do this as it was our last day to stay in that house. It was raining and we were terrified. We had no other place to keep our stuff at and we already packed half of our stuff. At that time, I called Transit Moving Systems and wasn’t expecting them to say yes, I offered them extra money just to show up, but they refused and said they’ll come over on their normal charges. The team came in half an hour after my call, brought a truck so that all the stuff stays safe from water, the packing materials were also of a great quality, to save our possessions from water. They did it all in a blink of an eye. And everything was so on point. Gratitude Anthony and team for helping us at the time we most needed them.

      Quote was half of actual cost & late!!

      They arrived a day late, the day of closing. After loadingapproximately half of my belongings, they said that they had to roughly double my quote in order to continue. Because they arrived late, and I had to vacate, I reluctantly agreed...only because I had to be out on that day. Then, I had stressed and agreed to a Nov 1 delivery day, due to work commitments. They didn't arrive until the day after Thanksgiving, 3 weeks after the scheduled delivery. After delivery and while unpacking, I found several items missing/stolen. I spent a ton of time filing a claim with their insurance. All of this occurred in late 2020, and I have yet to receive the measly $200 that their insurance agreed to pay for stolen and damaged items. BEWARE!!!!

    • They quoted an amount and then charged me $11,000 additional.

      moving from Houston to Maryland

      Worst experience of my life. We moved 6 times in the last 7 years for work, and this experience with TMS is the worst. They quoted an amount and then charged me $11,000 additional.The number of items did not change. Bad packing. In addition, on delivery I had many broken pieces which the insurance did not cover. Overall, a bad bad experience. Do not use them.

    • They quoted a low price and signed a contract only to refuse to honor that price and demand $1000 more

      Terrible experience

      One of the worst business experiences of my life. They quoted a low price and signed a contract only to refuse to honor that price and demand $1000 more (nothing changed on my side).

      Communication was incredibly unprofessional. They say they are movers not brokers but my movers were with a different company.

      They handled my stuff carelessly and lots of it arrived damaged or broken. They also only sent 1 guy from the brokered company to unload our stuff --I ended up having to help them unload the truck. What am I paying for?

  • Some reviewers reported denied or ignored damage claims and unhelpful after-move support. 16%21 reviews

      Move from Seattle to Cincinnati

      My experience with the company has been horrible. Initial contacts were fine, but then insufficient staff and time were allocated to pack and load my things, resulting in significant damage. At the final destination, delivery driver was rude and things were literally dumped as he rushed to unload my property and get to next delivery. The company has been very unresponsive to complaints of loss and breakage and since I elected per weight liability coverage I have been told that the value of my actual losses are “irrelevant.” I did not realize that selecting that option absolved the company from any liability or attention to quality service, but apparently it does. My bike never arrived, an entire set of china was smashed, a valuable sewing machine was set in a box with no packing or protection. I am heartbroken.

    • they overbilled me over $2,500 and they will not discuss the matter with me

Amazing people!

Mike Chriss and Nelson just left and we are so happy of their hard work and efficiency that I had to write a quick but a lovable praise as we take a break from our move. They were super quick with the move. They were great and handled our move wonderfully! Highly recommend!

Highly recommended!

I was looking for movers in the TX, so opened an inquiry and got the best quote from this place. They packed my things and the move was done in less than 3 hours. They were honest with no extra charges. All in all, EXCELLENT service from start to end and this review is well deserved.

Local move within Texas

Terrible Company.

When I first contacted Transit Moving Systems, I told Zack that I needed my items picked up between June 24th through June 28th and that I preferred to have my items delivered on July 2nd with the delivery by July 5th at the latest. Zack, the company representative informed us that he had availability to pick up on Friday the 28th and while he could not guarantee that our items would be delivered to our new home by July 2nd, they would at least be delivered within two weeks of our pickup date. Zack assured us that Transit Moving Systems was not a broker and that the trucks that would be used were the property of Transit Moving Systems. Additionally, we were assured that the movers that would be handling our items were company employees. We agreed to the terms and began preparations for our move. Transit moving systems moved our pickup date on us after giving a phone call to confirm the pick-up and didn't even show up on the new date that was listed. They constantly gave excuses about when they would show up and the movers who finally did show up weren't even associated with the company and they showed up two days late past an initial estimate. After they loaded approximately half of our items onto the truck, they said we needed additional space and increased our initial estimate from $2600 to $4821.79. Never trust anyone who gives you an estimate without seeing the items first. They were three weeks late in delivering our items from their initial promised date and the mover who showed up to our door was not an employee of Transit Moving Systems. Approximately $3,000 worth of items were missing and or damaged. We were told that our items would be put on a truck directly and delivered to our new home without leaving the truck. Had we realized that our items would be transferred so many times, we obviously would have bought the insurance in order to avoid costly replacements to damaged or missing items. We were not informed that other companies would be used during this move and given all the negative factors, we would have chosen a different moving company if informed of all the facts upfront. We were offered a total of $34.80 for all the items and misconduct on their part which is an insulting offer. Employees will promise you the moon to secure your business. Don't believe them. This company should be shut down for fraudulent behavior.

The move was completed at least a full hour faster than I had scheduled, which was a big plus. I, without any doubt/confusion, will recommend them to all my friends and family!
