Customers Trust MovingPlace
With MovingPlace, you get an affordable, hassle-free way to move long distance—without ever setting foot behind the wheel.
Communication and coordination with the central office was excellent and I thoroughly appreciated their attentiveness and punctuality--the actual crew who provided services at our home on the other hand were not as exceptional. To be fair, I think they must've been rather new to loading trucks because it took them significantly longer to load the truck than I anticipated it would (and I have a great deal of experience moving from one location to another), and they were unable to fit all of our property into a single 26' moving truck because they stacked our belongings no more than 2/3 of the vertical space of the truck. Moreover, upon our arrival at our destination, we discovered that several pieces of furniture were broken and our appliances were scratched and dented (more than typical for a long distance move). Additionally, the crew members were not very attentive when we discussed what items needed to go on the truck and what items did not--and rather than owning their error and apologizing, they would simply lie to make themselves look better. In the end, we ended up having to pay for an additional 1.5 hours of labor for the guys to load our truck, and we had to leave an additional 12' trailer of our belongings with friends because the movers did not load the 26' truck properly.
