Complaint: Aloha Movers

Aloha Movers moved our household from Hawaii to San Diego. When the shipment arrived much of our property was missing or as I like to call it stolen. As well the packing was horrible and we had too much too list broken. please feel free to email us and I will glady provide photos. One of the problems we had with them was a motorcycle that they shipped. When it left it was sealed into a security crate we signed with the promise that the crate would not be opened until it arrived at our new home. The bike arrived dissesmbled and in a smaller crate with parts missing and broken. Our grandmothers china and over $5000 of other household goods are missing or broken. This company informed us today that they spoke to the people that packed our home and they remember packing the china and that it was shipped, however it did not arrive here, along with many many other things. I would not ship with them again and will be filing to have them held accountable which will not give me back the china but might help others to not use them. They are thieves and liars as far as I am concerned.

Blacklist: Xpress Movers

Terrible movers

Moving Company
Xpress Movers
Somerville
Somerville, MA

http://www.xpressmovers.com/

Xpress movers showed up late, brought a smaller truck than we asked and agreed upon thus resulting in an extra trip, but the worse part was careless handling of our antique furniture, when we had talked they told us that they bring stuff to wrap delicate stuff in but none was brought (in talking to friends most moving companies wrapped even their non valuable furniture items). We repeatedly mentioned that our couch was valuable and antique and to be careful with it, they had nothing to protect it with and by the time they took it down the set of stairs in haste and careless manner they had smashed it against the wall and broken a leg off, they did not tell us about it, we just happened to be looking outside the window and saw them talking to each other about it and it was not until we got to our place that we realized what it was about. When the couch was brought in they put it in and were not planning to tell us or give us the broken piece. We noticed the broken leg and showed them, they brought the broken piece from the truck and told us that we should file a claim form that we need to get from the company. Later we noticed they had also chipped off another antique furniture item's legs. One of the guys named Steve was seen throwing our poof chair carelessly and knocking a table and stuff on it down, he seemed to be also the person who broke the couch, he was rude, hasty and careless. Afterwards we called, emailed for the claim forum and they never returned our phone calls. We don't know if they are truly insured or just lying about it. We got the estimates for our furniture fixing and they are all over 1000 dollars. Also, they told us that they will charge us 25 dollars each way travel and then changed it to one hour worth of travelling time at the rate of moving.

Complaint: A BEST CHOICE MOVERS

Scam

A BEST CHOICE MOVERS
200 SOUTH NEWMAN ST
HACKENSACK, NJ 07601

ABESTCHOICEMOVERS.COM

On January 31, 2008 I was moved by this company. Two weeks prior I spoke and finalized the contract with the sales man named Brandon. I found this company on movers.com, and many companies called me with quotes, I chose this company because Brandon gave me the best price. 3 men, 1 truck, 3 hours minimum @ $74 an hour and I was supposed to pay for the bubble wrap they would use on my glass dining room table that would have been the only added expense and they would unassemble and reassemble at the new place. Until the mover arrived at my apt. on Jan 31, and hit me with all kinds of hidden fees. Just to move my TV they wanted $125 I called Brandon my contact and after a very heated argument, he told me they would only charge me for the bubble wrap that they would use on the tv. To make a long story short, I had to call Brandon back three times beforee they actually started the move, 45 minutes later.

The movers took 5 hours and I had no problems with that, until 1/2 hour before they were finished, and my husband who does not speak much english was given the bill.. what should have been a $400 max.. bill turned out to bee $607.00 he had no choice but to pay them or they would not continue to reassemble the furniture. They then told my husband that they were going downstairs to the truck to get a screwdriver and when he realized the truck was speeding away, leaving us with the reassembling of many articles. They also charged, for 25 rolls of tape that they claim they used, I was there at the old apt. and saw the material they used, they brought up a package of 8 rolls and left 2 1/2 rolls behind on the floor of my apt. They also damaged my bed wood rail, broke a piece of wood off of it.

I just want this company to reimburse me for all the added hidden costs and . It was a nightmare. They don't tell you or come to an agreement over the phone and then the day of the move that's when they get you, knowing that you have no other choice but to go along with whatever fees they hit you with because it's too late to hire another mover. That is the way this company operate. MOVING IS STRESSFUL ENOUGH WITHOUT HAVING THE STRESS OF BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF.

E-z Movers lo-balled me on the estimate, and then when they came to make the move they said it would be up to $1000 more for packing materials. They said they need wrap everything with shrink wrap to protect it, pictures, chairs, tables, mirrors, etc. I told them to wrap them in blankets, but they refused. I called the company and cancelled at that time. They would not return any portion of my $675 deposit. The movers helpers told me they do the same thing to everyone. Most people end up paying because they have to be out on that day. I was able to find another mover who did the job for less money, no extra charges, and did an excellent job. E-Z movers are not movers, but con artists.

I made the mistake of using them to move one bedroom worth of stuff last summer. They were supposed to show up on Sat from 9-11am. Each time I called they said they would be there at 11, then 1 then 3 then 5. Finally I called at 4:30 and said when would they be there and they said sometime between 5-6, and b/c of the inconvenience they would take $100 off and send a 3rd mover to help. Nevermind that I had to get someone to watch my 1 year old son at the time. Well at 5:30 I get a call saying the movers went home and won't be moving me. I was so upset. They said they would come first thing Sunday morning. They come on Sunday (only 2 movers not 3) and were SO slow moving everything. Hubby and I were the ones sweating moving most of the stuff in the truck. They literally took one box and walked it to the truck (instead of stacking it on their dolly). It took them over 3 1/2 hours to move one bedroom of stuff. When they unloaded my one dresser, I caught them upstairs just sitting on the stairs. They were in the house for 20 minutes when I went to check on them (hubby and I were busy unloading all the boxes from the truck). Also, when it came to pay they were charging me for all these ridiculous charges that they never told me about when I booked them. I asked to speak to their supervisor on the phone. The driver said to just not pay and I can talk to the supervisor later. Well they don't call me till NINE months later (today) to say I have an outstanding bill of $289. They said if I don't pay they will send it to collections. I told them what happened, and they said I still need to pay it since they did do the move. Also, she made a snarky comment 'how do you think people would feel if they see you don't pay for services provided'. ugh!!! these people are scams!!! please be warned not to ever use them!!! I have NEVER had a bad move like this and i've moved plenty of times within the minimum 2 hours required.
