    Sought out this company on 4/19/2024. Dealt with a ***********************. At the time he was nice and provided me a quote. He told me he would be with me every step of the way, he took a $2,845. After that I never spoke with him. I had questions about reviewing my list and wanted specific details. Finally on May 11th he texted me that a *************************** would reach out to me. I left her multiple voicemails and emails. Finally I had to call their customer service line and they informed me she has been out of the office dealing with personal problems. She called me on 5/20 and we revised my moving list. The next day we added a few items that cost, $372 and I also paid another, $197 to unmount a TV. We scheduled my pick up for 5/31, I requested a late morning arrival. I was told between *****am, the movers did not arrive until 3:18pm. The lead mover on the job, which he never gave me his name, got out of the truck and was complaining about the heat and the job. He continued to complain about my job and said that I had way more than what was on the list. I pulled up my list which did have everything he was different. He continued to argue with me and said the new estimate was $4,100 more. I was shocked, called ***** she did call me back and argued with him on speaker telling him is list was wrong and I already had paid for specialty items. He signed used foul language and yelled at my mother when she questioned what was taking so long. I did walk them through my master closet and asked them to leave my clothing that was still out alone. I still needed to pack my travel case. They did not finish until 9:48pm, I was told 4 hours. When I went to my closet they had packed my bag, went through my underwear and I was missing some. Very disturbing. Also the contract that they made me sign was not explained at all. So we are without all belongings for 20 days longer than expected. No beds clothing or anything. And they want us to pay more fees.

    I hired this moving company based on their '#1 interstate moving company' online claims along with their false statements on their homepage that they do not broker moves. We were scheduled for moving from Massachusetts to North Carolina starting August 8th, 2021. We were unable to get confirmation from IVL for a pickup until we were conveniently within the 48hr cancellation period. At that point in time were were informed that our move had been brokered out (even though the salesperson **** had insisted would not happen). The company, who had outsourced the move to 'Selective Van Lines out of NJ ( no online presence or reviews)'. On top of that we were informed that the brokered company would only accept cash or money order (red flag). I emailed the company twice, texted and tried several times to get through to customer service but no one answered or responded to ANY of my communication.

    To make a long story short, the brokered movers were rude, inexperienced, and had a total disregard for how they wrapped or packed our items. Upon delivery we have identified over 45 furniture items that sustained damage (I wish this was an exaggeration), numerous boxes and bins were also significantly damaged, and the movers refused to bring items into our house, even thought we paid for a full service move. Throughout this process IVL was largely unresponsive to calls, emails, texts, etc. This move has been a nightmare and nothing like we have ever experienced on any of our previous 6 moves. We will be pursuing legal action against IVL and I would urge anyone to avoid this company.

    As noted by other reviews, IVL is a company based on deceptive and ********** business practice and should not be trusted. Also, I would recommend visiting FMCSA's website to search the DOT number on your IVL quote, you will be happy you did some research to avoid hiring this company.
