"I had just retired last June and called to get an estimate to move from Texas to Ohio. I let them know upfront that I had not reached a final decision. I was told that I would need to actually hire them and pay the deposit to find out what the cos..."

"This was the worst experience you can possibly imagine! We moved from Indiana to Florida. None of the promises they gave us were true. It started at a cost of $3000 and we ended up paying $9000. They divided our shipmentand would not give us our s..."

"Movers never showed up. Originally scheduled the move for Saturday morning a week prior. Then got a call Friday night after I had completely finished packing that they would instead be coming 11 am on Monday. I call them on Monday at 1 pm and all ..."

"My TV was broken during the move. The screen was scratched and pierced and it no longer works. They agreed to reimburse the damaged TV at first but they no longer respond later. I assume that they refuse to compensate the damage. They asked me to..."

"Do NOT use Empire. They gave us a low quote - then when I gave them an exact list of what we had, they more than doubled the cost. Then when the company they hired showed up - 4 hours late (8 pm!) they raised the price another $4000! We felt stuck..."

"Horrible cusromer service quoted me at a price and demanded more money on pickup did not keep a clear line of communication whatsoever i called numerous times to see when my belongings would be delivered because it was nowhere near the date they s..."

"STAY AWAY - DO NOT USE this company they are a 3rd Party. The customer service will assure you with promises, and once you make that deposit the communication breakdown begins. The movers did not have enough room on the truck to take all items ( w..."

"So far, I would rate zero stars. I planned my overseas move with Howard one year in advance. Started off fine, but once my stuff was picked up, I have almost zero communication. In fact, I think at this point my calls, emails, and IM's are being d..."

"Great company with even better people. They are first class & get the job done. So glad we utilized their expertise & experience. I would recommend them to everyone thinking about a move, no doubt. If I ever decide to move in the future they will ..."

"Move was awful when they delivered my items. Bed frame was broken. Dry dented and scratched. Called to file a claim. Still no response from this company. Was supposed to be an 18 wheeler. It was a pick up truck with a trailer. Very disappointed an..."

"Horrible experience. They tried to schedule my pick up TWICE after they had already picked up my belongings. The two people who showed up to collect my things rushed the packing job (that I hadn't signed up for) and instead of breaking down my des..."

"Oakdale lied to us every step of the way. They made our move an absolute nightmare. Positive reviews have to be bought - DO NOT BELIEVE THE REVIEWS - THEY ARE ALL LIES. We had to come up with $2000 CASH on a Sunday night or they wouldn't unlock th..."

"Bridgeview Van Lines is a scam. I worked with someone named “Randy” who took thousands of dollars from us. Then day of move out, no one showed up, no call, no text, nothing. I called to inquire and was put on hold for 45 minutes before being told ..."

"Dependable Van Lines is the most predatory and dumbfoundingly unreliable service provider I’ve ever worked with and destroyed $3,700 worth of property without compensation or an apology. This is my first cross-country move, heading from Chicago t..."

"SML IS NOT MOVING COMPANY BUT RATHER A BROKER FOR MOVING COMPANIES. THEY HAVE NOT VETTED THOSE COMPANIES AND DO NOT INTERVENE WHEN THERE IS EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE. IF USING PENSKE TRUCK RENTAL IT IS BEST TO HIRE DIRECT WITH A LOCAL COMPANY. NEVER ..."

"NEVER use this company! They are vial, liars, thieves and scammers! They overcharge, leave your belongings behind, break most of what they do take and steal the rest! Amanda is the biggest liar on the face of this planet. They will not show up whe..."

"This company is a scam! The company name registered with the DOT based on the DOT # I was provided is American Patriot Moving LLC; however, they operated under PowerPack Moving and Storage during my contact with them. The broker PowerPack Moving ..."

"This company is so bad that I am surprised they are still in business. I spoke with Steven who gave me an estimate to move 50 pieces from Georgia to Colorado. He gave me a price of $1949. I said this is very low to myself. I gave them $585 down. I..."

"Basically, I contracted with Alliance Van Lines and gave them a list of what we were moving. Based on that list, they estimated 817 cf. and I paid them a deposit of $1180. A few days before the move, after all was packed, we revised the list to 9..."
