Local move within Maryland

Mover.

Do not use this company.

This company sent a representative to my home to estimate the cost of the move. The estimate was $952.00. The actual cost was $1,292.00. The materials estimate was less than 50% of the actual cost. Company blamed the difference on me for providing bad information despite the fact that it was their man who saw everything that needed to be moved. This company also charged an undisclosed overtime rate and charged me for travel time in excess of the 1 hour agreed upon despite the fact that the all travel time was included in the one hour.

This company employs the classic bait and switch. The crew was great but the representatives of the company were awful and very rude.

Do not use this company.

Local move from Upper Marlboro, MD to Columbia, MD

Expensive and unorganized.

$89 for a flat rate and $139 per hour for three guys. It took them 2 hours to pack up my stuff, 1 hour to get to the new place, and 1 hour to unpack the truck. 4 hours right? It should have been $645. It was $1058. Also, my appointment was for them to arrive from 1:30 to 2. They arrived at 10 p.m. They said their first move of the day was a nightmare so they just pushed mine back. There was no compensation whatsoever.

Local move within Arlington, VA

Customer service responded to my concerns using F word multiple times.

Moving from an small studio in Arlington I ended up paying more than $900 in moving fees. Which was unexpected based on my initial conversation with Jeff. He estimated my move for $530 . Calling the customer service didn’t help either as their short temper staff TOm kept using F Words on us. Now I’m seeing another fee of $100.00 on my card as holding fee which was supposed to be used for towards moving fee.. my experience was terrible. Don’t recommend at least for small moves.

Stay away! Tri-State Area Moving = scammers who will rip you off!

I should have picked up on the signs of trouble before the move even happened-- their manager Linda wouldn't return my emails or phone calls in response to unjustified changes to my quoted service. Things went downhill on the day of the move. I had asked on several separate occasions before the move for advanced notice about timing to have Tri-State Area Moving stop at a storage facility to pick up extra furniture. I received no such notice, so the extra furniture pickup was not able to happen.

After the move was (partially) completed, I was then charged for services that weren't in fact rendered. For one, I was charged for an extra stop that wasn't made. Additionally, I was charged for 3 workers when only 2 were present during the move. I was also charged for 4.5 hours moving time when in fact it was 4.0 hours per the movers' clock.

The worst part of all of this is that NONE of my phone calls or emails were returned by either Linda or her manager after all of this happened. I ended up taking this to my credit card company.

Moral is: Stay away from Tri-State Area Moving! They are out to rip you off and then go unresponsive after they do. Total waste of time and money.

Long-distance move from Washington DC to Virginia

Incredible experience. Highly recommend them !

We had to move our DC condo to storage until our place sold. These guys helped us through the whole process. Tom was great in explaining all the details. The crew was professional and wrapped everything so nicely. So this is a A1 company and if you get recommended by your agent they'll give you discounts. Ill keep you posted once they deliver everything.

Damaged furniture, etc.

In June I used this company to move approximately 4 miles. They moved a one bedroom apartment. What a disaster. Broken 42” tv, gold leaf heirloom, 2 wooden closets,screen door, walls damaged. Tried to contact Linda Haggerty and Gavriel. What a joke. Contacted BBB. They in turn also tried to reach this company to no avail. $1550.00 in damages. I want my money. Still working with BBB.

Long-distance move from Washington, DC to Richmond, VA

Don't become another victim of this company

I never recieved a confirmation email with a confirmation number, contact information, or written cancelation policy. When I misplaced my notes I was unable to contact them to change my move date. I desperately went online trying to find contact info. The only email I received was 24 hours before, well past the 72 hr deadline. This is clearly by design and preys on consumers like me. They charged me $350.00, overdrafting my account without notice. Manager "Scott" stated "It's not our problem" and "Yeah, you're going to have to sue me." He also stated that it was my responsibility to monitor my email every hour and suggested to do anything else was a dereliction of MY duty. I asked him if I was on a 7 hour car ride if I should still do that. He stated "yes." "Scott," the most toxic, rude, and dismissive manager I have ever dealt with just told me, a customer, that I should break the law and risk the lives of myself, my family, and other motorists. I have been left broke, my belongings in boxes, and me trying to figure out how to proceed. Do not let this happen to you. Do not become a victim of "Scott" and Tri State moving.

Local move from Woodbridge, VA to Stafford, VA

Worst Move Ever

I used Tri-State because my previous movers didn’t have date available. Small 1-bed. Booked quickly and my questions were answered curtly. Provided no details on extra charges. Timeframe was 1-3pm. I waited over 7 hours for them to arrive, fully packed. GM Got nasty with me when I called once to ask exactly where they were. No apology. Movers said I wasn’t packed because I didn’t pack my mirrors and TVs? Told me I l’d be charged $25 a roll for shrink wrap. My misery ended at midnight, with cost much more than antcipated.

Local move within Glen Burnie, MD

DO NOT GET FOOLED!!!

First, I will say that the team of movers were wonderful. They were fast, very personable and careful with our things. Second, the manager is the ABSOLUTE WORST and is a complete scammer. He specifically quoted me $595 for 2 hours and an additional $195 for each additional hour for a 2 bedroom apartment and then emailed the estimate confirming the date and rates do discussed. The day of the move, the manager spoke with one of the mover’s on the phone after they loaded up their truck (an hour and 15 min in) and had him present me with a total of over $1000!!!! The manager then tells me that there is a 4 hour minimum and refused to explain why he would quote me the original rate break down of 2 hours at 595 and an additional 195 for every additional hour! Why not just tell me the 4 hour rate from the beginning!? He was condescending, rude, patronizing and an a**. He kept trying to rush me off of the phone because “the clock was ticking” and continued to argue with me about the 4 hour minimum! I could go on but this should be enough to make you think twice and call another mover for a more respectable rate! He ultimately charged us $859 so we could finally move on with the move. The worst experience I’ve ever had.

Horrible Customer Service

I had my move scheduled for two months. The night before They left me a message stating that they would be four hours later than I was expecting them. I called, texted and e-mailed back right away But no answer. They called me the next morning And I told them that the arrival time was too late for me. They basically told me that was my only choice and were very rude. When I questioned what happened since I had the move scheduled for so long the man that answered was very condescending and was not willing to work with me at all. It was a terrible experience.

Scammers.

The move was horrible - they quoted me an $800 move and then ended up charging me $2043.  They hire men who are not quialified movers - they just hire them at a daily rate.  They broke several pieces of furniture and charged me for boxes they did not use.  Do not use this mover.  They are not good.

Moving.

Update: If you have a complaint against the company it is your legal right to file a complain with the Better Business Bureau.

The company continues to avoid crediting the difference of amount from services rendered and pricing communicated from my initial call. I asked for the owner's contact information to contact directly for a resolution and was told only he (Thomas) handles these issues for the company. I have several concerns from the movers not presenting the contract before moving as referenced on the paperwork to the additional changes assessed for services that weren't rendered. I voiced these concerns to the movers as they presented the bill and escalated to Thomas and was told that they would not release my belongings unless I signed the receipt in its entirety. I was also told that Thomas would rectify the matter once he completed am administrative review of the situation. Further, the manager communicated that my initial call recording would be reviewed to ensure accuracy of my claim, yet this wasn't done. Upon review of online reviews of this company, it is apparent the practice of bullying consumers to pay more for their move under a situation of duress is nothing new. It is an unfair practice and overwhelmingly calculated to put the consumer in a position where they are forced to pay or risk having their belongings held on the truck by the movers. Their needs to be an investigation of the behaviors of this company so that no one else endures these repeated experiences. At the least, the consumers who have left complaints regarding the same should be contacted to have the opportunity to share what they experienced.

Nice Job

I found both incredibly kind, easy to communicate with, and hardworking. The day I moved was pouring rain; they took care of my things, wrapped them, and did their best. I do not write reviews, but I cannot risk these guys not being around for my next move. So please use them. I won't use anyone else in the future.

WORST, they are cheaters

Stay away from this company as they will cheat you. Know the owner of location in Rockville (Maryland) personally.

He is a hooligan and talking with him is like wrestling with pig!!

The workers are told to move extremely slow to add hours aside from refusing to move pieces.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.
