Long-distance move from Florida to Massachusetts

Never, never,never again!!

One of the worst experiences I have ever had. They quoted one price, but after the truck was filled doubled the price! Would not return phone calls..never gave acurate estimates of either travel time or cost.  Underneath they just ran an awful business that has the consumer at bay.  NEVER use this company.  Not sure how they stay in business with the underhanded techniques of low balling and then jacking the price up. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL..and left a mess and would not clean up after them!! A nightmare.

Service cost: $2000

Local move within California

Great Move.

We recently used United Transportation Moving and Storage to move 30 miles from our apartment to our new home. During our search for a quality moving company we bid 3 groups one of which we had used previously, Ben Hur. We liked Ben Hur when we used them and felt comfortable with their name recognition but the customer service, attentiveness and persistence shown by Stephanie at United was a welcome difference from the generic representatives at other companies.
The movers they sent were great; very careful with our things and they had great customer service and general people skills. In particular we noticed what a great attitude the movers had despite the hard work they were faced with. Any moving company can send a few strong guys to lift your things but for us United really distinguished themselves by having really great and genuinely nice people to interact with.
Our move was particularly tough since they had to lug heavy furniture and boxes down a very difficult stairway and then over to their truck which they could not park right next to the building due to access issues. No complaints the whole time, very accomodative and always with good smiles. I will remember these movers and their names, which I could not say for other moving companies I have used in the past. Without a doubt we would not hesitate to use United Transportation Moving and Storage in the future.

Long-distance move from Texas to Minnesota

So bad, we're taking legal action.

Their BINDING-NOT-TO-EXCEED promise is false.  We were given an estimate of 1232$  The movers they "bid out to" said they wouldn't move anything until we paid 3400$ cash.  After we settled for 1500$  They went out again and their "BINDING-NOT-TO-EXCEED" moved up to 2200$ (again, other driver/loaders that said they owned the company).  We had no choice but to pay that money.  They didn't take half the things that were contracted, and overcharged us for cubic footage not used.  Cliff, Jen, Shawn, Isaac, etc. then said they would go pick the rest of the stuff up for free.  Month later, no word.  Now they will not refund us the money or get the stuff that was left behind.  They will put your things in a public storage unit, and they hire out people to move your things.  This is not a moving company.  The people who delivered our things didn't even know UTI.  So now we are filing for all the things that were broke, and taking them to court. Never use this "Broker" to move your things.
I can submit photos and estimated binding contract if anyone doubts the above.

Service cost: $2200

Official company response

This client was given a quote but when we went to do the move there were alot more items. we gave a revised estimate and the declined declined service. Then the next day after the client could find no one else to move them and implored us to come back we did and preformed the move for $2200 as we agreed. The items that were left behind were particle wood and in bad shape and the client told us to leave them as we did and then the next day begged us to come get the items even though they probably would not survive the transport and we told them there would be an additional charge to get those items picked up at which point they refused to pay. Unfortunately we could not pick up the extra items for free especially since they are going from Texas to Minnesota which is a costly transport. We do strive to work out all problems with our clients.

Long-distance move from Texas to North Carolina

Unprofessional and Thieves.

First off, my estimated moving costs were $2800 from TX to NC. It ended up being $4700!?! This review is being written as events take place so that I don’t miss anything and can accurately detail the amount of nonsense that took place during my move. The driver was VERY rude, spent most of the time outside on his phone speaking very loudly. My attempts to even speak to him made me feel like I was bothering him. The driver left his bank balance receipt on my counter when he left which was a negative account balance; this was right after asking me to make my check out to Cash. My check was cashed within minutes of them leaving my house. They brought a rental Penski truck to load my furniture into. The 3 man crew that came with him were hard workers but totally unprepared. It was probably 100 degrees, I had some bottles of water for the guys but when it ran out they were still asking me for more. They did not have the proper tools to disassemble any of my furniture. Not even a pair of pliers. So they ended up using all of my tools which they did not return and I had to run out as they were leaving to retrieve them. They brought my washing machine downstairs and tipped it over on my wood floor! Water spilled all over my living room which no one even bothered to clean up, in fact they all walked through it and tracked it into my kitchen as well.   As they took my plastic shelves apart in the garage they kicked they and tossed them around. After they were done they just left, didn't even say anything. They also did not clean up anything. I had plastic bottles and cups all over my lawn and all through my house. There were empty tape rolls in every room on the floors and also scraps of plastic wrap all over in every room. I asked when I could expect my stuff at the new house and all I was told was "7 days". I was told I would be the only house loaded on the truck and it will take 7 days to go 920 miles. I was told they can do 400 miles per day, not 130. Right now I just hope that my stuff shows up at all. In closing, I did not feel comfortable using United Transport for my moving needs and I would definitely not use them again or even recommend them to a friend. *Update- Now that this nightmare of a move is basically complete, I can repost this review (above) and add the events that took place since I first posted it. The review was removed after several people at the company hinted that I wouldn’t get much assistance until I had done so. After my items were picked up on July 9th I relocated to NC and awaited delivery which I was told would be 7 days. On the following Monday I received a call that my items were still in storage in Dallas and would be picked up on that day to make their way to NC. Up until that point no one knew or would tell me where they were, they were unsure if my stuff was in transit or not. Tuesday the 17th a driver calls me to schedule a delivery for Wednesday (18th). He shows up in yet another Penski moving truck, this time an 18 wheeler. Much friendlier than the last guy, they unload my items in the heat. As they are finishing up, I notice that one of my most expensive items is missing. My 47” Samsung LED LCD Ultra Thin TV. They check the truck again and then tell me that it was not in the public storage unit that they picked up my items from. They call in to their company, which I have no idea who they worked for but was told they never picked the TV up so it is not their problem. I asked if they worked for United Transport and the driver responded with “Who?”  I had the United Transport website up on my laptop, the driver looked at it and then told me he had never heard of them. He got a piece of paper that said pick my stuff up there and drop it off here.  At this point we look at my inventory sheet, I notice the sheet goes up to 160 but the last sticker was 172. I also see that my 32” TV was not listed on the form. My 47” TV was listed and had a sticker number of 40 so I go over and look at my 32” TV and sure enough it had number 40 in it. Basically they put the sticker that was supposed to go on my 47” TV on the 32” TV which is not recorded on the inventory and with a little magic, someone other than me ends up with a nice widescreen TV. I had read about this happening to a few other people before my move was worried that it would also happen to me, I guess I was right. The pick up driver did not allow me to review the inventory before leaving, he shoved it in my face while holding the papers and told me to sign and then immediately walked out the door. I immediately called United Transport to tell them about my TV, their initial response was that I had 1 TV on my inventory sheet and received 1 TV back, regardless of the size difference. Refusing to accept this as an answer I told them my inventory said I had a 47” TV and I did not receive one. Finally I worked my way up to the owner who told me they would look into it. This was a few days after the debate about removing my review from mymovingreviews.com was settled by me doing exactly that. Also it is very hard to get hold of someone at UT when you need to. After a few more days of waiting, Cliff who is the owner/manager called me back to say they could not locate my TV. Through their claim process I would get $.60/pound which a TV like that would get me about $20, he said they were willing to pay me for the item to help me out. I paid $1800 for this TV in Feb of 2009 and now they go about $1000 which I relayed to Cliff, he said they wouldn’t be able to give me that much but would find out what their offer would be and call me back in a day. 2 days later I called back in, spoke to someone else that told me to fill out a claims form and mail it in. While all of this was taking place I also noticed several other items were missing. (3) 2’x3’ glass tops for my desks never made it. My washing machine looked like someone took a sledgehammer to the top of it, there was a huge dent in the metal and the lid was bent in the middle. Several glasses and a crystal bowl were shattered, including my Guinness pint glasses! The boxes were torn open, some were crushed, and even some of my plastic bins were crushed. As I hooked up the Wii for my kids I noticed the box was tore open along the bottom and a Wii remote and TV remote was missing. I filled out the claims form for the first set of missing items and mailed it in, meanwhile I notice that a small window AC unit that I had also didn’t make the trip. Also as I am preparing for a camping trip this coming weekend and go to look for my large gray cooler that had some of my camping equipment inside of it, I notice that it is nowhere to be found as well. Also my wifes sewing machine never made it to NC. Now I have another claims form to fill out. So after filling out and submitting my 3rd claims form and mailing it in, a week later I was notified that I am only able to submit 1 form and that I would have to redo all 3 onto 1 and mail it back in again. I said forget it, take the first form with the TV and get on with it. Another day passes and they tell me they combined my forms into one and will be processing it which could take up to 2 months?!? Now 2 months later I continue this review, still no money and no update from UT. This is extremely bad business; I would not trust these guys to deliver a pizza at this point.  I have sent 2 emails in the past month for an update on my claim and have not received a reply. I am now consulting with an attorney and about to fill out a BBB complaint against UT. I now received my claims form from UT with the total amount they are willing to give me for the loss of all of the above items. It came out to a whole $148. Completely and totally unbelievable. I am now in the process of contacting my attorney again and filing a complaint with the BBB. I will post any updates in the comment section if possible so that I may get the word out on how shady and poorly run this company is. Please DO NOT use this company and avoid a massive headache and potentially being ripped off. Another month later and I received my UPDATED claims form, they added $100. So now a grand total of $248 for all of my missing items including my $1800 TV that was stolen during the move. Now is it time to involve my attorney and the BBB. I am done dealing directly with this incompetent company.
 
Sorry for the wall of text, this form keeps removing my formating,.

Please DONT GO WITH United Transport, The Stole our Big TV and IMac.

Hello All,Please BEWARE of Movers called "United Transports" & "Moving Services". We moved recently from Florida to California and UNFORTUNATELY used this movers called "United Transporters" & The send us someone called "Moving Services". They clearly stole our 46Inch LED Samsung TV and our iMac. Which was the most expensive in the list of things we moved. It was very clear that it is stolen by someone from the movers and no doubt about it, because when the shipping came, they put a small 21inch emerson TV with the same sticker they stick on our big TV when they picked it up. So it is clear that it is intentional. We clearly have doubt on the Driver and some of the team who came to pick it up, the main guy was very rude. MOST IMPORTANT: After all this incident when we called the office, they told me to file for claim. Also they told us not to call them anymore, and they will contact if they hear about anything. And we are waiting for 2 weeks now and they never called us back. When I called, they hung on us and they purposefully not picking-up the call after that. Again next day when they picked-up they said they will call back and just hung up again. This rude response from the office was triggered us go and tell everyone, we are one of the many silent victims of United Transporters Fraud. We are sharing this hear, just because we don't want anyone else to fall in this TRAP of United Transports.
 
Above all these, they had doubled our charges after packing and putting everything into the Truck. These people are hopeless and never go with either of them United Transports or Moving services.
 
Hope this helps many.

Long-distance move from Texas to Florida

My moving experience.

I can't believe that they offered me 84.00 for total of missing items. All items missing from delivery were electronics.   I was missing a brand new cannon printer.  key board and mouse.  a sony HD DVD player, and two Dish receivers, which I was charged 50$ a piecefrom dish network. Someone got a new system.  Not to  mention lots of valuables had been broken.  Give me a break.  Not to mentioned they showed up 3 days late, costing me 400.00 for a trip I had to call in for.  I definitely do not reccommend them.  Im sure this will be a big fight, but I intend to report them to every institution possible to prevent this from happening to someone else.

Sleazy Operation.

United Transport, Inc. is a sleazy operation run from a suburban North Miami shopping center by hoodlums. I discovered this when my furnishings were delivered by some immigrant laborers late at night (there was the first clue, not counting the bogus additional up-front charges for “additional cubic feet”). Upon arrival at my new home, they would not unload unless I signed paperwork stating that all of my furnishings were delivered-BEFORE THEY WERE TAKEN OFF OF THEIR TRUCK. Forced to do so, I then watched as their “contractor”, who called himself “Shawn” threw boxes of china in my house, dumped the furniture, broke a table and finally said that my $ 2, 200. Carpet was coming on the next truck in a day or so. When questioned about my carpet, the hoodlums at their “office” laughed and said they would send me a picture of it, but refused to deliver it.  These criminals learned how to work the system in this country and will cause you a great deal of grief if you use them. Be smart and use a nationally recognized moving company. The costs may look higher, but in the end, you will pay less and best of all, have peace of mind.      .

Thanks United Transport Inc!!

Being of a military backround I have moved alot! United Transport Inc is one of if not the best companies I have used and this is move number 13 or 14 starting to lose track. They were on time, professional and the value I got for my money was great. They picked up my goods, stored them at my request for a month and delivered everything within the timeline I needed at the price quoted. I can appreciate a job well done so thanks a million guys and this review is my tribute to your excellent service .

Job Well Done.

I had to relocate because of a job and I was getting blown up by moving companies, I got a call from Chris at united transport inc and we went through what I did with the other ten companies that called me. I liked the way he presented himself and felt like I would take a shot with his company since they were in great standings on the BBB. I was pleased with my choice and said that I would write a review if everything went well. It was a great experience, I will let family and friends know about this company. Thanks Chis.
