1.0 out of 51.0
I'll start by saying that everyone says "there are no good moving companies"..Well, D&J LLC takes this to another level. They win the award for worst company I have ever dealt with in my life.
If I could give them zero stars I would. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They are a bunch of scammers, thieves, and their customer service is non-existent. They honestly act like they're doing you a favor to take your money and deliver you shards of your belongings..assuming you actually receive it at some point. They DNGAF about you once they get your deposit.
I hired them because their agent, Jorde Hosang, was very responsive. I have to say, he was the only not-terrible part of this whole experience.
Long story short, they BROKE or LOST absolutely everything I own, including completely shattering my flat screen TV that they charged me to pack on my behalf. The corners of all my furniture is chipped, dented or broken. They were the most expensive estimate I got by a long shot, but due to Jorde's responsiveness I chose to book with them.
They ended up charging me double my original quote (so double the already expensive quote I got) when you consider all their misc add-on fees (or bribes in this case). They also conveniently "lost" the one box they packed for me (by the way, they insisted on consolidating some smaller items, charged me for a wardrobe box and tape. Therefore they knew the exact contents of this box), which included my new Dyson vacuum, some antique silver, a couple framed pieces of artwork, a small rug and a paper shredder.
I should have listened to the negative reviews..I'm kicking myself for using these guys, and more so for trusting them when they said that "the negative reviews are only because of the fires in California, which caused a backlog in our warehouse. But we can assure you that everything is OK now"..that's complete BS. Also, double check the positive reviews - the "authors" have written a myriad of super-positive reviews for a ton of moving companies. They're either bot-generated, or people that are paid to write fake reviews.
I'm now dealing with a 3rd party for the claims on my stuff because that's what they're insisting I do. D & J LLC. does not care about their customers, and they act like they're doing you a favor to take your money and break/lose your stuff. Oh, and they insist on taking cash at the end, and won't start unloading the stuff until you pay them. So you have no clue that everything is broken/stolen until they're paid in full.
AWFUL COMPANY. AWFUL PEOPLE.
I'll make an update to this review if they do anything to make this right. But as of now, I would have honestly been better off to sell my stuff for pennies on the dollar and re-buy it in my new location - at least then I wouldn't have had the financial cost and stress/angst of dealing with these people.
RUN AWAY. Literally, book with ANY OTHER MOVING COMPANY.
