I contracted with orbit to do my move on may 28, well they had a sub company show up on may 27 to pick up my stuff and was told that we had more cubic feet than paid for. i paid for the entire move up front so sub company was upset when i refused to pay the additional money. they took my items and were to take them to nj to have shipped on the next truck. well it is june 16, i still have no items. several phone calls were futile do to hang ups being screamed at, lied to and seems strange that the same comp. could have so many mikes working for them. well now they have blocked my phone number so that i can't contact them, let me tell you i have turned this over to the local police, the fbi, bbb, us dot, gov. of nj and any other agency that i can think of. i spoke with a dan from sub comp. and he said he is trying to help me but can't seem to do to much, my stuff is still in pa. where i left it after all this time and when i call the cell phone for the driver (i found out is registered to yet another company and that company is linked to another company) so basically there is 4 companies involved in this. i would recommend anyone having trouble with this company should notify their local fbi field office.

FBI can't help you

AUTHOR: Jim - Anaheim (U.S.A.)

There is no law enforcement agency that can help you because nobody has stolen anything from you. By law (Department of Transportation), nobody has to deliver anything to you until 30 days from the last date in the spread they promised you. Until then, you're out your stuff. I would HIGHLY advise you (because this will happen) is to pay them exactly what it is they tell you the price is. If you refuse, your contract states that they have the right to turn the truck around, put your items in storage, and charge you for storage fees until you do pay. The only way to affect businesses like this is NOT to use them. You did.

I will tell you what I tell many people: Moving is not an inexpensive venture and going with a cheap mover will often find you as the consumer with (1) items delivered very late, (2) broken items, and (3) you being out more money than if you had just decided to go with a reputable mover. My guess is that the price of your move is going to rival that of a full service mover without the full service.

How do you know if your being ripped off?
1. Get a quote from a REAL full service mover like United, Allied, Atlas, or the like. They only make about a 3-5% profit on every move.

2. Anybody who quoted you something significantly lower is something you want to not consider.
