   Excellent! Very Impressed.

   Fantastic moving company. I was impressed with their attention to detail and all the wrapping they did.

   Hidden fees.

   They quoted us $2400 but then when the movers arrived the price suddenly is $1000 more but I assume this will be the end of the surprise charges. The delivery is suppose to happen 4 days later since I'm only moving 4 hours away but no it takes the full 10 days! On delivery day, they need an additional $511 when I paid in full already. Of course, the dispatcher knows nothing.

   Attitude, disrespectful and no understanding

   Gilberto and Terry showed up with attitude telling me it was going to cost $1200 to move my 1 bedroom apartment and 5-6 hours. They laughed at me when I said it wouldn't take that long. I stated if you don't want to do the job then leave and they did. Called David the owner to report what happened and he argued with me that I showed have called him to give them a chance to fix it. It was moving day. My partner and I got it done. Kept my $150 deposit so really think if this is the company you want to use.

   Please avoid!

   The movers were friendly enough but items were damaged, which they acknowledged, apologized for and informed me I should be able to be compensated. They finished earlier than anticipated so I was told I would be entitled to a refund of approximately $125, as they charge you at the beginning of the move for the amount of time they estimate it will take. After the move, I contacted them about the damage to the item and my refund. I was told my refund request was being forwarded and I was given information about filing a claim. I filed the claim and received a letter informing me I would be receiving payment within 30 days. After numerous emails and calls, I have received NOTHING. No refund and no claim reimbursement. The move was July 31st! Not one person has responded to any emails or calls.

   Scam. Dont hire them.

   Think twice before you hire them. 1-) The job was subcontracted to a different moving company without my consent and discussion. The persons who came to pick up items did not introduced correctly. I had a contract with E-Z Movers, they were supposed to pick up my items between 08/22 to 08/24. However on Friday 08/23 on my call, they informed me that can not make it on Saturday and would be able to pick up the items next week. However I was flying to GA on 08/26 2am. The contact person told me that he will call back after discussing with his management. On my call in the evening they told me that they will pick up the items on Sunday 08/25. They did not inform me that the job has been subcontracted. When the movers came to my house for the pickup, they introduced as E-Z Movers. After they picked up all the items, gave me new bill and asked for full payment. The invoice was from Southern Van lines. Then upon my asking, I was told that they got the job and I need to pay them in full. They also added Fuel Charges and Material charges for approx of $400/- (a little less). Upon some argument, I gave them $400/- so that I get sometime and talk to E-Z Movers about it. 2-) Incorrect contact (sub contractor) was provided. The invoice I got after the pickup had incorrect contact info of Southern VanLines. Later I found out that the moving was done by Sunshine (something, don't have the full company details as I was never told). 3-) Payment Terms were violated. Per my contract with E-Z movers. I had to pay 25% initially which I did, then 75% via credit card on pickup and remaining in cash on delivery. After the pickup, I was asked to pay in full in cash. Upon argument I paid $400 in cash as that was my last day and wanted to talk to E-Z Mover about the situation. 4-) Unauthorized / discussed charges. I was charged approx $400 for fuel surcharge and materials (187.12 + 100.50 to be exact). They hold up items and asked me to pay first the full amount including the disputed ones. I called E-Z Movers on 08/30 and emailed them about the situation. I was asked to pay the amount and get my items. E-Z Movers agreed to reimbursed the unauthorized charges. I paid the remaining amount and got my items on 09/07 5-) Items and property (delivery) was damaged. The items were handled very unprofessionally and lot of them were damaged significantly. The property was damaged too. The delivery driver told me that he does not work for the company and don't care about any damage. 6-) Delay and No-response on claim from E-Z Movers and/or their partner. The claim for damages and reimbursement of unauthorized charges were submitted on 09/10 (or so) but did not receive any update and proper response.

   Worst Experience Ever.

   Absolutely DO NOT trust this company. Go to the Better Business Bureau, their membership was revoked. I did everything they asked to end up with a "binding" "not to exceed" "firm fixed price" "contract" (those are all words that they used or agreed to in writing) and the day before the move, an entirely different company called to say they were contracted by EZ Movers to do my move and that EZ is just a broker. The day of the move, the driver showed up and did a 5 minute walk through of my house and told me that the $12,352 contract was not valid and the price would be at least $20,000 because I clearly had a lot more stuff to move than I told anyone..except that I had someone do a detailed walk through of my house to create the contract. He yelled at me, in my home, and told me that I did not understand terms like "binding" and "not to exceed". I spoke to someone at EZ while this was going on and was told "it kind of sounds like you are over a barrel and will just have to roll with the punches" - ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Fortunately, I had almost two weeks before my closing date and I was able to scramble and get a back up plan! Do not trust EZ Movers and specifically Kevin Kambool!

   Worst Experience Ever.

   I don't even know where to start with this company. Let's just say that the office will give you the quote you want to hear over the phone using Zillow to see what's in your house, but then the foreman will show up, say the office people are idiots and proceed to tell you that your move is going to take twice as long as they expected. I think it's a game between the foreman and the office about them talking trash about each other, but at the end of the day the only thing that gets done is the customer is overcharged. A few toppers for my move: - the foreman literally "shushed" my wife, raising his hand and closing his fingers like a mouth, in my own house nonetheless. I would have punched the man if I didn't need to get my stuff out - the foreman actually threatened to leave my house without my stuff, knowing that we only had 24 hours to move, all because he didn't want to discuss why we were being overcharged - when the moving crew realized during my move-in that they were running out of time, they just started throwing my boxes in my garage instead of asking me if I wanted them to finish putting my belongings where they actually belonged - right before they left the moving crew left all the extra tape and boxes in my garage. When I asked them to take it, they said "we don't have a dumpster at the office" - I received a phone call at 9:30am saying that the movers were on their way to my house. When they arrived at 10:45am the foreman asked me to sign. I noticed on the bill that he was charging me starting at 9am (apparently that's a thing, I paid the office $247 in travel charges but I also had to pay for the movers to travel to my home). When I told the foreman that he left at 9:30am, he told me he was charging me starting at 9am because his car wouldn't start. How is that my problem?!?!?!?!? Use at your own risk (and the risk of your credit card)!!

   Horrific!

   Please note from the very beginning I asked the pick up driver Sammy to provide me with my updated bill of lading and all he would say repeatedly (3-4 times) is the following: "Don't worry, you'll get it, you can trust me, I've done this thousands of times, believe me/believe in me/please don't ask me again, you'll get it." Yet, he left without providing me with my updated bill of lading, but made certain they had their payment as well as their future payment information on file, and manually signed for. They also had me sign for several things electronically but refused to grant me copies of the electronic information signed, ultimately and eventually stating that "Once you've paid for your invoice in full, you'll get all of your documents." I even called Sammy minutes after he left, leaving a voicemail for him and never heard from him again. I repeatedly called E-Z Movers that day and days, into weeks after, continuously asking my salesman asking for my documentation, and he stated the same, "Once I have paid in full and upon delivery, I'll receive my updated documentation." My hands were tied. This was EXTREMELY unfair how E-Z Movers does business, this way, as well as raising the price by $1k once Sammy arrived on the VERY last day possible to pick up, and I was stuck between a rock and a hard place and no other alternatives. I was quoted on 20 wardrobe moving boxes and Sammy showed up with ZERO wardrobe moving boxes and used ZERO wardrobe boxes. As a matter of fact he contacted me telling me he was at Home Depot picking up additional moving boxes because he wasn't provided with enough for my move. There's NO way this move should've been an additional $1k because I left behind my dining table/four high back dining chairs/my dining room curio and computer desk to save money ALL of which I was quoted on, with the exception of my computer desk. Moving forward, the items missing are as follows: My corner family room cabinet, my Dell computer, my Epson four-in-one printer, my two stone lampstands (we found the shades which were smashed in and your delivery driver I21/Ibrahim A Asal was able to fix those with the exception of the rhinestones that went around the base of the lampshade and those are also missing), my footstool and my two restaurant grade fryer's. My things that are damaged are my Emerson 32" HD television screen completely shattered along the top, my African American Art the actual art is scratched in the upper right corner, the glass was approximately 2" thick and it was smashed in several different places, the approximately 3" thick frame cracked in half, the right arm of my sofa completely torn/ripped off from its base and a hole with stuffing coming out on the front left corner of my sofa. When your driver I21/Ibrahim A Asal first arrived, I asked him for my updated bill of lading. He asked for payment, I gave him $820 in cash, he pulled up a chair, asked me to "Sit and once everything's delivered and signed you'll receive your paperwork, don't worry." I said no, you've been paid I'd like my updated documentation please and he asked where my copy was, I asked for my documentation again and he again refused until delivery was completed. He brought my damaged TV to me, apologized that it hadn't been packed properly, and sat my damaged painting outside on the porch damage facing away, so prior to him finishing, I asked what it was, he again apologized for it not being packed properly and showed me the damaged, and said to contact the company to "take care of it." Once they finished, he asked me to "Come, sit and talk" I sat he asked "Who was there", I asked where? He repeated himself two/three times and FINALLY he says "At the pick up location" I didn't know what he meant so I repeatedly said Sammy and his two helpers, why? He FINALLY said "Who signed the paperwork?" I told him I was the only one signing paperwork, then he pushed a "doctored" bill of lading in my face with my signature at the bottom. I told him that piece of paper was just made up in his truck just now because the ink was fresh and my signature was a copied signature from my payment receipt at the time of pick up. I said are you kidding me right now?! Do you think I'm a fool? Where are the dates on this doctored document?! I took my phone out and began taking pictures and videotaping because I couldn't believe how disturbingly dishonest he was trying to be and at that point he literally got up, ran out the door hiding his face and saying "You have ALL of your things!" I told him I was calling the police because all of my things weren't there! I was looking for my computer and my printer because I need those NOW, and they're NOWHERE to be found! It was painfully and almost immediately apparent my curio cabinet wasn't on that truck (I took pictures as soon as those doors opened because Sammy kept asking about the value of my things which made me uncomfortable at the pick up, amongst other things) he said "Why call the police, this is a civil matter!" I said exactly, I and I need a report of it all, he kept saying "I have nothing to do with any of this, its between you and the company." I told him he is representing THE COMPANY so he has EVERYTHING to do with this! He didn't want to be videotaped so he asked how could we work it all out, without calling the police, I told him to just sign the receipt I gave to him that he received the cash I paid him and he could leave and I'd deal with the rest via claims in care of E-Z Movers period. I videotaped him signing he asked me to electronically sign off on the delivery, I vehemently and utterly in light of the forgery that just went on and asked him again to leave.

    Do Not Use.

    I'd give half a star to no star if it was an option. Let me also start off by warning everyone to stay away from BRIAN. He's not a terrible guy, he’s actually really friendly and appears helpful at first, but as soon as the sale is done, if you need any assistance, he’s gone with the wind. He's clearly peddling a service he knows is terrible. Shame on you Brian, shame on you. FYI - my complaint review magically wouldn’t post on their website of lies. Their website advertises hey have 5-star rating. Ummm….. NOT according to the BBB or yelp. Their BBB ratings are 2 stars, still over extending kindness where it isn’t due. To start; I was rushed to sign everything on the movers’ useless tablet from the get go. I should’ve taken it as a sign right then and there. It kept shutting down and erroring out, resetting itself. The screen was so messed up I couldn't read a thing. In fact, it took so long we went into overtime. However; because I signed, when I found the HUGE gashes in the hardwood flooring, my claim was denied. With extremely arrogant and couldn't care less attitude. ZERO Customer Service applied. They caused a huge gash because the team ignored my requests. I asked for them to use all 4 guys to lift the furniture that caused the gashes in the wood because it is extremely heavy and go out the double doors to allow more room. They blatantly ignored me, used 2 guys and decided to attempt to showoff and squeeze through a single door and down an extremely narrow hallway. And because they were so far behind in time, we were rushed out the door. I bought the team lunch and traveled out of my way to hand them a cash tip because they said they weren't confident they'd get it through the company itself if I put it on my credit card. That should've been another red flag right there. The response I received was: We spoke to our movers and they denied having ever caused any scratched. We reviewed the images of the scratches, and they are short scratches which are not common when dragging something across the floor. This would cause long, deep scratches. Considering all information revirewed, we must respectfully maintain our position on this matter and deny liability for he alleged damages. ME: Of course, they're going to say that, because I'm sure they would be responsible for some of the bill, right? It would make short deep scratches if they continued to try to pick it up by teeter tottering it without protection. Which is exactly what they did. I am so beyond disappointed in this company; professionalism from the movers and lack of Customer Service from the "Customer Relations" Team. Movers Unprofessionalism • 2 were jumping out to scare one another, playing around, and killing time, at the risk of dropping my belongings. • While another was making advances at my sister and I (like waiters do for bigger tips), then rudely asked me outright if I tip well. • In addition; many times, I only saw 2 working while 2 just sat around the truck Recommendation to ALL: Stay away, but if for any reason you move forward with this bs service; make sure ALL EZ Movers equipment and tablets are working properly before signing anything. Even if that makes the lead mover return to the main office to get proper equipment. Make sure to view and take pictures of everything in the house/apartment before moving to the next location and before you sign anything. Never sign anything if you can't read it, good faith gets you nowhere here. My return business will not be expected.
