      Status:
      Answered
      On July 7, 2023 I paid Allied Van Lines $14,771.51 to pack, load & deliver my belongings from ********** to *******. Account #******. Payment included $100,000.00 for insurance with no deductible. Allied Van Lines ************ refused to compensate me for a damaged 4 month old HP OfficeJet Pro printer and refused to compensate me for a missing purple Levenger briefcase. I had provided examples of the malfunctioning printer but was told that it had to be a "mechanical" problem to be compensated. The printer is a machine and printer malfunction can only be "mechanical". The printer was packed in a single box with no padding. I reported the missing purple briefcase but was told that I could only be compensated if it was reported as a "missing box" on the day of delivery. There was no missing box and my other Levenger red briefcase had been packed in a box with clothing - not a separate box. It took me time to go through all boxes before I could say the purple briefcase was missing. I will upload photos including a photo of how carelessly some of my things had been packed & sealed.

      I used Allied Van lines to move from ********** to ********. Their sales pitch was on point, stressing their professionalism and their expertise in moving delicate equipment. As you can see from the photos below, that wasn't true. My custom built audio PC was tossed off the truck by the mover and is non functional now. The truck driver tossed equipment and goods off the truck haphazardly, stating that anything broken would be covered by insurance. She admitted to going through our belongings to repack items. It's been months and we are still finding odds and ends in various places. The damages to our goods nearly equals the price we paid to have Allied ship them. 0/10, would never use them again.

      Allied Van Lines, Inc. Response

      We sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience you are experiencing from your relocation. It is never the intention of the carrier to perform their services in a manner less than you would expect from a professional moving service.

      I do see that a claim was filed and the carrier accepted liability for most items claimed with a settlement headed your way if not already received.

      Again, we do apologize that you had damage to report and that the service was not as professional as anticipated.
