What went wrong and why you should go elsewhere: I was assured of guaranteed delivery (which I paid an additional $450 for) by a certain time. They were late and did not fulfill this. Upon inquiring about getting a refund for this wasted money, I have yet to hear back from them after repeated calls and emails. BTW, they were also late in picking up as well. RIP-OFF!
Irreparable damage was done to my dining room set, wooden bookshelves, couch and other items. You have to go out of your way and go through a whole hell of a lot to submit a claim -- not even sure if I am receiving any refund as the entire process is painfully slow. Beckens sends you elsewhere for this anyway and passes the buck to others.
I was given an estimate of about $1500. Now I did have many more boxes than I had initially estimated, but the whole move cost me over $3200! FOR A 1-BR APARTMENT!!! I know full homes that were moved for less than this! You get 3 Russian guys who speak broken English that come to the site and rip you off, trying to explain to you why the price us escalating. And they are already there...you have your plans set at this point...you are screwed and at their mercy. Let me repeat, $3200 to move a 10x10 unit of space when I was quoted $1500. Listen, I was suckered as I am sure others have been here. I lost my money already. I requested that they look over the prices and be given a refund of some kind. They were not having any of this. They got what they wanted. So fine. I lost big time
But if I can get just one person (at the least) to read this and NOT hire Beckens Moving Company (NY) or Experienced Van Lines (as they are the same company), then I win and can sleep better at night knowing they suckered one less consumer. Beckens Moving & Experienced Van Lines (the whole partnership is sketchy) will be poor communicators AFTER they get your money. DO NOT HIRE THEM! You can even call or email me and I'd be more than happy to explain in more detail for you. Anything I need to do to keep them from ripping off someone else. They talk a good game to get the job and sound cordial and honest and professional. Don't be suckered. Email or call me -- look elsewhere for a BBB company rated much higher. Thank you -- and happy moving!!!
