    When you get there, buy new things. Driving your own UHaul is the only way to avoid scams. Sadly, all of these moving companies play the cash scam game. MoveNShip says "the headboard is included with the mattress," only to find out after doing a visual walkthrough that you have 500 square feet more. Additionally, MoveNShip doesn't send you the Bill of ******* until the day of the move, so you don't know who is moving your stuff. Request one ahead of time and make sure your deposit has a 3-day cancellation period. A 26 foot box truck arrived, and I spoke with a person named **** after the walkthrough who told me it would cost another $4,500 and that the payment had to be made via Zelle or Cash App. The movers packed everything carefully. **** told me they just loaded up in ******* on Thursday. As a result, this company does not even start the next day. It takes at least three days to get started. I called the day before and told them there would be two stops. Ours and another across the complex. She got confrontational and said, "Well, I wasn't advised about anything." I apologize ****, I guess you didn't get the original contract. Your broker also scams you for more money by not telling you your stuff is loaded on a 55 foot semi truck. What does this mean? They will show up at your apartment complex and tell you that they cannot enter. It cost us an additional $1,250 and $100 for the shuttle service. Additionally, the *** wanted cash for the two local movers. I drew a line. In ***** words, "US *********** Money Orders are accepted, so I'll use those." It took two hours to finish, and the payment was accepted. We went from the original quote with two stops at $5400 to now $11,236. Take their quote and double it at the very least. Buying new will save you a lot of stress.

    We understand you're unhappy with how your move turned out, and we respect your right to share your concerns. However, we want to clarify that all services were handled properly and openly, following both industry standards and federal guidelines.
    Before anything was loaded, we completed a full video walkthrough at your pickup location. During that time, we went over the updated inventory with you which was significantly more than what was originally submitted to ************ Based on that, we gave you updated pricing and options before moving forward. Nothing was done without your knowledge or agreement.
    While we understand the final price was higher than your original quote, it was based on the increased volume, added stops, and the need for a shuttle due to access issues all of which were outside the original scope of the move.
    If you feel the broker ************* did not fully explain certain details upfront, we recommend addressing those concerns with them directly. As your carrier, we followed proper procedures and are happy to provide any paperwork or documentation you may need.

    three weeks and at a cost three and a half times our original quote!Quote, I told **** that the move was for my father-in-law and that the pick-up would be in ******* at his house with a destination of ******* to a storage unit. I gave him details on the items that we had and asked questions about having blankets in bags not boxes. We were told that they would wrap curio cabinets, TVs and dressers. After going over the items with **** we were given a price of $2,771.60 for 552 cubic feet, this did include a discount. We agreed and paid about 44% down. Two days before the move, we had our final box count, which was about 12 boxes more, and added 8 items. Our cf went from 552 to 702, an increase of 150 cfor 27% more. Our price went up 65%! We had to pay an additional $1,089 on the down payment. On the day of the move, they do a walk through. They determined that we did have items listed but that they were of bigger size or item listing for their computer-generated cf and weight system. At this point we were also told that they would not take items in bags and now they were going to charge for their boxes and add another box to our count. This is also when we were told they even though I had listed TVs on the original quote that these TVs need to be wrapped to their standard and there was a fee for that, these we opted to put in our personal vehicle. They also added more packing charges. At this point we were told that our total cf had increased another 622 because of our larger Items. This in turn increased our price by another 50%! Lose the $2,400 we had paid thus far.they use discounts to get you into an agreement then increase the price at every turn the delivery of our household items was 17 days. 17 days to go from ******* to *******. When Max arrived with the delivery he had no helper, he had to unload all of it on his own.

    Thank you for your message detailing your concerns regarding the recent moving services. We value your feedback and take such matters seriously. We would like to address the issues raised to ensure full transparency and clarify the circumstances.

    As stated in the contract, outlined in the attached ****************** printed estimate, THEIR (******************) agreement was based on an initial inventory list provided by you, with the quoted price reflecting a volume of ****************************************************************************** the document, which specify: 

    Volume Adjustments: The estimate was based on the items and volume initially declared. Any additions or changes to the inventory, including increased box counts or larger-than-expected items, directly impact the final cubic footage and cost. This was communicated prior to service execution. 

    Packing Standards: THEIR (AMERICAN CHOICE VL) contract outlines that all fragile items, such as TVs and curio cabinets, must meet our packing standards to ensure safe transport. Additional packing charges, including for boxes and materials, are specified in the agreement as necessary for items that do not meet these criteria. (AMERICAN CHOICE VL) 

    Consent for Adjustments: No items were moved or services rendered without your consent. When the cubic footage was recalculated during the walk-through, the revised volume and associated costs were discussed and agreed upon before proceeding.

    Delivery Timeline: While we strive for prompt deliveries, US DOT allows 30 business days for delivery. As outlined on THEIR (AMERICAN CHOICE VL) printed estimate is only estimated arrival times.

    We acknowledge that moving can be a stressful experience, and we regret that you found certain aspects of the service frustrating. However, all pricing adjustments and additional charges were consistent with the terms of the signed agreement and communicated in advance.

    Also see Moving Mania's Printed estimate in regards to volume and inventory. Please see highlighted areas. As you can see from the highlighted information in the attached Moving Mania's printed estimate, the terms of the contract were clear and adhered to. Following a thorough walk-through on the day of the move, it was determined that the customer had additional items that were not outlined in the previous estimate of American Choice VL. (which the additional items are highlighted) This adjustment was necessary to accurately reflect the space needed for transport.

    Additionally, the packing of fragile items, such as TVs and curio cabinets, was required to meet our professional standards for safe handling and delivery. These standards were clearly outlined in the contract, and any associated costs were disclosed prior to service execution. No items were moved or services provided without your full knowledge and consent.

     You booked a move with us, and weve been transparent and thorough throughout the process. We took the time to provide you with all the information needed to make an informed decision, and you agreed to proceed. We are fully adhering to the terms of the contract.

    If theres anything more you feel we could have done, wed like to understand. However, its essential to provide an accurate inventory list and review the contract carefully before agreeing to the terms.

    While we understand frustrations can arise, its disappointing when false claims are made against a company simply because someone feels inclined to do so. We have addressed your concerns in full and have supported our responses with the contract you signed.

    We take pride in how we conduct business and in serving over ****** satisfied customers with an outstanding track record.

    This moving company breached their own customer insurance/replacement contract. We had three items completely damaged - a flat screen television broken (~65lbs), a water damaged dresser (~110lbs), and a missing hamper with our entire linen set (~60lbs). This company employs a "weight based" insurance for their customers - the base package is $0.60 per lb of damaged goods. They offered us $75 for the damage, which does not cover their negligence even according to their own insurance system. We are owed at least $140 for this mess. In addition they really should not be allowed to follow such a standard for electronics, whose weight has no correlation to value. Receiving $40 for a flat screen television which costs over $450, due to their own negligence and malpractice, cannot be correct.

    To Whom it many Concern, 

    We understand your frustration regarding the damages and missing items from your recent move. As detailed in your attached Moving Estimate, Prime ************* provided Basic Valuation Protection, covering items at $0.60 per pound per article. As the carrier, we have fulfilled our contractual obligations, and your claim has been processed according to the terms of the Basic Valuation Protection. Both Prime Line VL Moving Estimate and Moving Mania Moving Estimates have been attached.

    Complaint: 22230262

    I am rejecting this response because:

    It is transparent that neither Prime ************* or Moving Mania are in accordance to their own contracts. You have not fulfilled the required compensation of $0.60 per lb of damaged/lost article. As highlighted by my initial complaint, and by the contract/inventory, the total weight of damaged articles is around 230lbs - according to the compensation proposed, you are covering only 125lbs of the 230lbs, therefore you are in a breach of contract.

    It is extremely important to note that both entities (Prime ************* and Moving Mania) have disregarded/ignored several voicemails and attempted communications to rectify this issue. Moving Mania does not even have a working email address to communicate with their customers, which goes to show the ethics and principles of this company. 

    Regardless of how little the difference is, if we are not properly compensated according to our agreed upon contract, we will be escalating this issue to a civil case against both parties mentioned.

    Sincerely,

    I contacted Moving Claims regarding your claim, and it appears that your claim has not yet been completed. Please refer to the attached correspondence from the claims department. Until the claim process is finalized, we are unable to provide any reimbursement. As per our contractual agreement, claims are handled by a third-party service, and we are fully operating within our contractual rights in this matter.

    Complaint: 22230262

    I am rejecting this response because:

    Of course the claim is not finalized. The investigation was done and your company concluded that $75 would be the compensation you would be offering us for the damages. We have done everything that has been asked of us, and you have pictures, the entire claims package, contracts, and written explanation of damages. Moving claims simply gave us an option to reject and ask for a new appraisal (which is your responsibility) of the damages investigated. We simply will not be signing off/concluding this claims package if your company wants to participate in a breach of contract - so if that is your goal here, then that simply will not happen.

    We have nothing left to do, and it is entirely on you now to either abide by your contract, or to not, and prepare for civil litigation.

    Good Afternoon,

    I'm not entirely sure why this claim was closed - the company in question is in breach of contract by not compensating us for the damages done by their company to the extent outlined in their contract. I would like to be contacted and receive an explanation as to why your department deemed that a company in breach of an agreed upon insurance contract with its customers should have a complaint like this closed. Please provide more information.

    In May of 2024 I hired ****************** for a long distance move from *************** to *************. I was initially quoted $2800 for my move which was in late June. I made a deposit with a debit card. A week prior to my move I called them to update my list with some additional items because the amount of boxes was going to be more than what they initially suggested based upon the size of my apartment. I was told it would be an additional $700. When moving day came, Moving Mania came and the job was outsourced to them. They did an inventory check and said it was going to be an additional $3100 and charged me a bunch of fees for fragile items, 13 gallon totes instead of large boxes (same size) ect. I was given the option to on the spot part with things to lower the cost but didnt. They forced me to pay with ***** a down payment. Then the driver called me and wanted to deliver my belongings at 10pm which they couldnt and was incredibly rude and hung up on me. When they arrived in an 18 *******, there wasnt space for them to park and they were then forcing me to pay the balance plus an additional $1300 for having to use stairs and load it on a smaller truck in cash before they unloaded anything. They threatened to put my stuff in storage if I didnt pay first in cash. I reluctantly paid and then they came back and literally threw my boxes and totes off the truck. Boxes and totes were destroyed. They used a box marked fragile with a 55 TV to hold the gate of a truck and broke the screen. Kitchen chairs were broke. A $500 piano keyboard in a plastic tote that was bubble wrapped broke from the totes and a guitar from being destroyed and thrown around. A gold pocket watch was stolen as was some new items from **** still in packaging. Several pieces of furniture were damaged from carelessness. There isnt a spot on the website to file a claim and the company have not responded to emails. A $3500 move turned to $7500 and they destroyed or stole many valuable items.

    Regarding ******************** complaint on the damages incurred during his move, please be informed that you will need to process your claim through Moving Claims. The necessary information has already been sent to you.(www.movingclaims.net)


    In terms of the additional cost of your move, you provided the BBB with both your initial moving estimate from Prime Line VL which is your booking agency and our moving estimate (Moving Mania).

    Upon arriving at your residence on 6/29/2024 we conducted a thorough video visual with the *******, dispatcher and **************** to go over the items he was moving. After the finalization of the video. These additional items were the reason for the price increase. Original article list provided by Prime Line VL  showed 17 items, 81 pieces. After the video visual you were at 40 items, 109 pieces. Moving Mania went over the changes and also gave several options for **************** to be able to move forward. **************** went with the revision. Please note, **************** was not charged for any packing of fragile items. Everything was disclosed prior to loading and signed off on.


    Additionally, we are concerned about your report of the carrier mishandling your items. To address this matter properly with the carrier, could you please provide us with any video or photographic evidence you may have of this incident?


    Once you have completed your claim, Moving Claims will inform us, and a reimbursement will be issued to you according to your contract.

    Complaint: 21966455

    I am rejecting this response because:

    I reject this response because almost every box was completely damaged. Several electronic items were placed in hard plastic bins opposed to boxes for greater protection and several bins were severely damaged to the point where they can't be reused and the several items in those bins were damaged. Additionally, I called in advance about the additional items and was quoted an additional $700 for doubling of boxes. It then rose to $3000. Additionally granted there is fine print which I did read regarding possible additional charges, many of the charges like changing of trucks for an additional $1002 was simply due to laziness on the delivery driver's part. There was a place for them to safely park and they were just trying to get every dollar out of me. The service elevator was out and I was charged $300 to use the stairs even though they used the residential elevators for everything except my couch. So, I was charged a stairs fee of $300 to move a single piece of furniture. Residents called the police on us because they were using the elevators and holding up resident use of them which is against policy. They also refused to unload the truck or prior to that or  switch trucks without giving cash for the balances. That is extortion which is a federal crime. I told them I would gladly pay once things were in my apartment and they told me if I wouldn't pay then and there they were going to put my stuff in storage at my expense. I also have jewelry that was in my nightstand stolen and new items in packaging from **** missing. It seems like somebody was rummaging through my belongings. I only have photo documents of the condition and way that boxes were delivered and unloaded from the loading dock to the ground floor loading area and then how they stacked things. I talked to the main guy about it but usually things were happening too quickly to get a picture. I didn't film them. Additionally, several items like stackable lawn chairs were generated wrong regarding sq footage used to overinflate the estimation. Upon hiring the original company, I was unaware this was being outsourced and I was also unaware that the balance was forced to be paid in cash and Zelle until receiving a call from Moving Mania *** who took over the account. **** isn't traceable and despite already knowing this, I had already made deposits using a debit card which I had receipts of for thousands of dollars to Prime Line Van Lines who initially was hired, so I just went through with it. I didn't have the choice until they were about to load the truck of parting with things which was really impossible at this point. Additionally 25 of the "items" that are listed on the packing sheet that you stated was over the limit are furniture blankets that your company supplied and you marked as PBO for packed by owner, which I didn't. Additionally, the handwritten invoice listed almost every single item using BK which isn't a symbol that is in your key. However upon looking at it, I assumed it meant broken, which is "BR". I can assure you that not a single item that I packed was broken and I ensured to only bring things that were in decent condition. Some furniture items had minor scratches prior to delivery which is fair,, but not broken. I will be sending an extensive list of damages using the link provided and likely filing a lawsuit for fraud and extortion.

    Thank you for your detailed feedback. We understand the severity of your concerns and are taking your claims seriously. All claims are handled through Moving Claims. Once the claim is finalized, we will proceed with the payment.

    Regarding the additional fee for the shuttle, it was clearly communicated with the dispatcher that a shuttle would be required. If the use of the residential elevator was prohibited, this should have been addressed directly with the delivery driver and helper at the time of delivery.

    In regards to the additional fees incurred at pick-up, please find attached the estimates from Prime Line Van Lines and Moving Mania Inc.
    We were contracted to pick up *************************** on June 29, 2024, with an initial estimate of 516 cubic feet, comprising 17 items and a total of 81 pieces, at a total cost of $3,386.93. Upon arrival, an onsite video inspection was conducted with the *******, dispatcher, and customer present. Following this inspection, the updated volume was determined to be 1002 cubic feet, comprising 40 items and a total of 109 pieces. Consequently, the total cost was adjusted to $6,193.58 due to the cubic feet doubling. This additional cost was communicated to the customer and customer signed revised printed estimate to move forward with the move.

    The demand for payment prior to unloading was a standard procedure to prevent non-payment situations, not an act of extortion. Which you can find in your Prime Line VL Moving Estimate attached and highlighted.

    Please finish with your claims and we will take a look at it once finished as per the contract.

    We acknowledge your concerns regarding the missing and damaged items from your move, including the video game boxes, broken glad boxes, smashed TV, missing laptop, and broken children's bed. We understand the importance of these items and are taking your complaints seriously.

    We are aware that you previously filed a BBB complaint alleging theft by our team at the time of pickup, which was resolved when the item was found amongst your items prior to loading for delivery.

    Please note that we have a formal process in place for handling claims related to lost or damaged items. We encourage you to file a claim with MovingClaims.net. Once the claim is filed and processed, we will send a reimbursement payment as per contract.

    I am rejecting this response because:I have now filled out two claims with that company and they do not get back to you. The first time I did not go through all my boxes and see what was actually missing or broken but now since I have everything noted of whats missing and broken I made another claim they are saying that to make a claim it had to be within a certain time frame and I am past that time frame which is untrue. Why are you guys not able to do the payout for everything thats lost and damaged? I have already attached proof that ****** sent me an email to fill out the claim with the very same company and I did that. I keep getting bounced around over and over. You guys want this complaint to go away and I want all of my childrens gaming stuff and my laptop and everything that was broken ( tv, bed, glass ) and stolen. There is a very easy solution to this.

    We were first contacted on April 09, 2024 by ***** from America Moving and Storage. We were quoted at $3181.94. We paid a deposit of $1157.15.We then were contacted by another male requesting a full inventory of what we had, the inventory was given and the male increased our price to ******* on April 18, 2024.On April 21, 2024 we found out that our moving job had been sold to Moving Mania *** and that the rest of the balance would have to be paid to them, we paid them $1784.15.On April 21 of 2024 one of the movers showed up to pick up our boxes, he did a facetime call with ****, from Moving Mania ***. were she let us know that some of our items were listed incorrectly on the manifest and would cover an additional amount of cubic feet, our final price would increase to $5900. We chose to not take any of those items and only transported what could fit in our original cubic feet that was on the contract.On May 1, we were contacted informing us that our items would be delivered between the hours of 9-12.On May 2, our items were delivered around 9 in the morning, upon arrival, it was noticed that the trailer was not fully enclosed, leaving our items to be exposed to the elements, and that our household goods were mixed with those of other costumers. A lot of our items were severely damaged. I contacted ****, and filed a claim. We were also charged an additional $300 of our quote. This was later disputed, and we have only received $200 refund from that. One of the employees harassed and threatened me because of the refund and said he was going to make me pay for what I have done. This was reported to his employer as well as **** who pushed it to her respective channels. May 3, we discovered that our items had been rummaged through and a lot of our electronic valuables had been taken from their respective bags and boxes. We contacted **** and let her know immediately. I provided Moving Mania *** with a detailed email of the missing and damaged items,

    I am rejecting this response because:


    I am rejecting the businesss response because they made no real effort to resolve my issues. I was never reimbursed the remaining $100, and I did complete the necessary claims paperwork. The claims company failed to contact me despite my multiple attempts to reach them. When the process was finally concluded, they only offered $75 for all the damages. After I declined, they increased the offer to $125, which is still far below the amount needed to cover the repairs nor the items that were taken from my belongings.

    Furthermore, they provided no solution for the items that were stolen from my boxes and bags. I requested arbitration paperwork, but the company denied my request to proceed with arbitration. To make matters worse, the business owner called me and accused me of only wanting money, which is completely unfoundedmy items were stolen, and Ive been transparent and communicative throughout the entire process. They have since stopped answering my calls and emails, leaving me without any resolution.

    Concerning the settlement of claims in accordance with the terms outlined in the contract between ****** ******/***** ******* and America's Moving & Storage. Specifically, I would like to address the matter of liability and compensation as it pertains to the provision of $0.60 per pound per article, which was agreed upon in the signed contract. I affirm that the claims process has been conducted in full compliance with the terms and conditions established in the aforementioned contract. As per the contractual agreement, which clearly stipulates that Moving Mania, *** assumes liability at the rate of $0.60 per pound per article, this liability limitation is in line with industry standards for basic valuation coverage in the moving and storage industry. The $0.60 per pound per article coverage is designed to offer a basic level of protection, which was made available to ****** ******/***** Solorio at the time of signing. This coverage, while standard, is notably different from full-value replacement options, and the selection of this valuation indicates ****** ******/***** ********* understanding and acceptance of the associated limitations. As such, any claims arising from loss or damage during the move have been settled according to this pre-established framework, ensuring consistency and adherence to the contractual provisions. Moving Claims has diligently followed the provisions set forth in the contract by evaluating the weight of the damaged or lost items and applying the agreed-upon rate of $0.60 per pound to calculate the appropriate compensation. This process was conducted with transparency and in full accordance with the terms you reviewed and accepted prior to the move.

    Complaint: 21667348

    I am writing to formally reject your response regarding the claims settlement and the $0.60 per pound per article liability limitation. While I understand that this rate was outlined in the contract, I maintain that Moving Mania **** did not fulfill the terms of the contract in several critical areas:

    1.Severe Damage and Theft: Several of my items were not only damaged but also stolen. This goes beyond normal wear and tear or minor damages during a move, and $0.60 per pound compensation does not appropriately address the significant value lost due to these violations of the contract.
    2.Failure to Handle My Items According to the Contract: The manner in which my belongings were handled did not meet the standards promised in your contract. The care promised in your service was not delivered, as evidenced by the extensive damage and missing items.
    3.Breach of Contract: The condition in which my items arrived and the overall service provided does not align with the agreed-upon responsibilities outlined in the contract. This is not a case of simple damage covered under standard valuation; it is a breach of the basic service level promised.

    Given the above, I do not accept your claims settlement as it fails to address the significant breach of contract, the mishandling of my property, and the theft that occurred during the move. I request that the matter be reviewed further to ensure I am properly compensated for the losses suffered, including the stolen items and extensive damage to my property, which goes beyond the limitations outlined in the contract.

    I am rejecting this response because: We did take the business advice and we did file numerous claims.  We never got any response except to fill out another form and another claim and another claim.  I mentioned numerous times we did not want money for our loss and moving mania never even offered.  Just always fill out a claim form.  the property has to be somewhere and it is our belief that this company did nothing to look for our property.  no one ever got back to us that an effort was even made.  Only to fill out loss and claim form.  I don't want to hear "according to our contract".  These items were highly personal and their help was horrendous in solving this situation, which is still unsolved .  the company should be embarrassed, but I know they are not because of all the lame excuses we received and the latest pre- written response we just received.  Don't hire *************************** to broker a move and don't hire Moving Mania.  period.  If you see these names run.  *************************** is just as guilty.  When I signed on to them they acted as though they were the mover and how they were 'family owned mover ' never mentioning that hey were a broker.   Horrible experience and we are heart broken at the loss of these items.  An effort to find these items I am  sure would have resulted in finding them.

    In November 2022 I contracted with ********* Moving and Storage, a brokerage company, to facilitate a cross country move. They sold my move to moving mania, who upon arrival at my house in **** informed me that many of the services I was told by ********* moving and storage were included in the cost of my move were actually an extra fee. Now comes time to get it delivered. I knew that I would only have a delivery window of a week before I had to leave town for training for my new job once I arrived in *******. So I questioned the delivery date every step of the way from my first contact with the broker, who assured me that if my things were picked up on December 19th, they could be delivered the week of December 30th. I then spoke with their quality assurance department about a week before the move and again asked about the delivery date and informed them that I would not have access to my new apartment until January 2nd and would need delivery as close to that date as possible and was again told that I could expect delivery either on the 2nd or 3rd. When I first received a call from moving mania to schedule the pick up time, I again said that I would not be available for delivery until the 2nd, but that I would need delivery that week and asked about a delivery date. I was told that should not be a problem and once the date gets closer the delivery team will call me to set a date and time. Fast forward to today, the second. After still not hearing from anyone, I called and was told that all of my items are still in ****! And they won't be loaded for ******* until the end of this week! I told them again that I have to leave for training next week and won't be back for 4 months. I asked to speak to someone from delivery who called me and told me, as did the original moving consultant, that they had done nothing wrong and if I wasn't available for delivery on their schedule, they would put my stuff in storage and bill me for the costs.

    Business Response

    Date: 01/03/2023

    In regards to **************************** complaint. As per your contract with American's Moving And Storage (See attached AMS's Contract) that you Esigned it states clearly that any accessorial services such as packing of fragile items, (TVs, glass, pictures etc.) requires special packing. Which you where charged accordingly for. Also in their contract it states clearly that pick up, load and or delivery dates are only estimates and are not guaranteed. As well as the contract explains your 1st available delivery date is the first date of the delivery window and not a promised delivery date. That date guarantees your items are not arriving prior to being able to start accepting their belongings. 

    When the customer was first reached by ********************** to confirm pick up scheduling and go over the addresses and to find out the customer's first available delivery date, which was explained this is not a delivery date but the first date he can start accepting delivery. Also after pick up an email was sent to the customer regarding delivery date (See attached email Delivery Date Confirmation) In that email it explains that 1/2/2023 is not a delivery date just when he can start accepting delivery, which the email ask for a confirmation return to this particular email, as you can see customer responded back.

    Customer reached out on the Dec 28th, stating he could get into his new residence on 12/30/2022, I responded back to customer and informed him I would let him know once the dispatcher has his delivery schedule put together.

    Monday Jan 2, **************************** regards to delivery, informed customer we would load Thurs/Friday of this week. At that time the customer informed me he wouldn't be available for delivery, this is the first time I heard that he would be going out of town for training. I explained to customer that if he could have some one leave us in to unload that could be done. 

    We as the carrier have up to 30 business days for delivery. His 1st available delivery was 1/2/23, even changing his 1st available delivery date to 12/30/22, we are still within our contract. He is scheduled to go out for delivery on 1/5-6/2023  

    (See attached Moving Mania's Contract) 

    This BBB complaint is unwarranted, and we would like to have it removed. We are with in our contract.

    Complaint: 18671485

    I am rejecting this response because: I specifically asked the broker questions about the carrier and items such as packaging tvs and things of that nature and they assured me that it would be covered. Just like they also assured me that on pick up and delivery I would be able to pay with a credit card, which the carrier does not accept. Furthermore, I expressed concerns about the delivery date throughout every step of the process because I would be leaving for the **** academy on January 9th. I was in contact with the carrier today and told them that I could accept delivery on Saturday the 14th, as I would be able to travel back from the academy to accept delivery, and that if that was not possible I needed an exact delivery date as I will now have to fly someone into town to accept delivery on my behalf. I am not receiving delivery on the 5th/6th as stated in the business response, I was told delivery will not take place until the 9th or 10th, and have therefore had to spend upwards of $800 in airfare and a hotel to fly someone into town to accept delivery so that they can be here and not have to sleep on the floor. At no time was I ever told by anyone that they could hold my property for up to thirty days prior to delivering, and in fact I was told by the person at my house that they provide 30 days of free storage, but that would not apply to me since I would be receiving delivery early.

    ********* MOVING AND STORAGE, MOVING BROKER

    Maybe your complaint should be with ********* Moving and Storage's sales person, who made these promises/guarantees to you.

    Please see their printed estate that you signed (attached) but let me put this right here too: per ********* Moving and Storage's Estimate

    "ESTIMATED PICK UP AND DELIVERY SCHEDULE: All pickup, load and/or delivery dates are only estimates and

    "Optional *********** Services and Additional fees (if applicable to the move): It is customary for the carrier to

    up."

    Once again we are in our allotted time for delivery as per the ***** which is 30 business days from your 1st Available delivery date. (Attached) Moving Mania's Estimate that you signed. But I will include that here

    I am rejecting this response because: Firstly, the lack of professionalism in the response from the business should speak to their business practices. Second, I expressed the need for urgent delivery to the carrier as well. Thirdly, their deceptive business practices continue. When the delivery drivers arrived to my residence to deliver my furniture, they attempted to ******* additional money from the person I flew in to accept delivery on my behalf. They stated that they were unaware that my residence was on the second floor, which was untrue as I have documentation showing that this was clearly marked on the paperwork at the time of pick up that it was a walk up building. Furthermore, they told my representative that because it was on the second floor, there would be an additional fee, in spite of the signed contract that I had stating that the first flight of stairs, up to ******************************************************************** and confronted the drivers with this information, they suddenly said that they would just go ahead with the delivery without charging us for the steps since there were so many issues. My representative has video of them throwing our boxes around the back of the truck, and a claim has already been filed for several items that arrived damaged as well as two items that were missing at the time of delivery. Every step of the process with this company has been unprofessional and not geared toward customer satisfaction, including their unwillingness to accept any form of payment other than cash or postal money order. They obviously know that if they were to provide such poor service to customers paying with credit cards, they would lose disputes on a regular basis. Buyer Beware.

    Sincerely,
