I contacted the moving broker The Moving experts and spoke with Ira who recommended Diamond Van Lines to move my household goods from Orlando, FL to Philadelphia, PA in December 2005. I specifically asked her about their business practices and she assured me that there was never a problem with them and if there had been, she would not have recommended them to me. I have since found out that they had complaints with the Better Business Bureau before!!!! I wired $4,700.00 for my goods to be shipped and have yet to receive my complete shipment. In February, I received part of my household goods from Diamond Van Lines which were damaged. I didn't receive the remainder of my goods and contacted Sam at Diamond Van Lines to complain. He has been assuring me and THE MOVING EXPERTS that he would send the rest of my shipment as soon as he had another shipment coming to my area. That was a month and half ago!

The Moving Experts will take no responsibilty in honoring the contract that I have with their comppany. The Moving Experts and Diamond Van Lines have been paid IN FULL via wire transfer and credit card and I have not received 1/4 of my household goods as of 4/28/06. The goods that I did receive were damaged as well. DO NOT USE THE MOVING EXPERTS, INC., or DIAMOND VAN LINES!! THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND NOT HONOR THEIR CONTRACT!!!!

I appreciate your suggestion....

AUTHOR: Aleasia - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, April 30, 2006

I understaned that it might be considered by most people to move themselves--as a matter of fact I ususally do. Unfortunately, my brother who used to be a long distance truck driver for JB Hunt was deployed to Iraq by the US Army and was unable to assist me with my move this time. I didn't have anyone else to help me and had to hire a moving company. Regardless, these companies should honor their binding contracts! I will, and currently in the process of using any means necessary to see that they do!

#1 Consumer Suggestion

I would never ever hire a crosscountry mover

AUTHOR: Paul - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, April 30, 2006

Its general considered by most people that moving should be:

1. Move self - save $$$
2. Sell everything that you can easily replace at new location (most furniture,applicaances can easily be replaced).

Personally I would never ever hire a crosscountry mover.

Though I would hire my brothernlaw and possibly reent a semi (he can drive semi's).

But for the most part, I can rent a large uhaul and take what I dont sell with me.

Its cheaper than hiring movers.

I spent a total of $2000 renting a uhaul.
Btw, that uhaul had 75% of the capacity of a semi trailer. And in fact the uhaul used was largecab which allowed me & my wife to actually be together and one of us sleep.

Btw, there has been major reports for decades, advising against using movers unless they were among the top major (and most expensive movers).

There are legit movers out there, but most of us will never ever need them.

Btw, I am wealthy enough to afford such movers, but if I was moving crosscountry I would still do it myself.
