American Movers of New Jersey

AMERICAN MOVERS DIRECT IS A SCAM- RUN ...

The biggest scam company I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. I was quoted a certain price and then when the movers came the day of, they told me I had almost double the cubic square footage I was quoted. And you guessed it, they wanted double the price. I actually had less stuff than I had estimated (10 less boxes than I told them I thought I would have). They get your nonrefundable deposit and then don't care as that's what they're making their living off. All the blame was shifted onto me for 1) having furniture and not just boxes though I told the broker multiple times I was moving furniture and he assured me that he had reserved enough space on the truck for it and that the movers would be the only ones who needed to physically list it out. For 2) moving from a house into an apartment- though again, this was very clearly communicated and I was only moving 1 bedroom set of furniture. AMD acted like I wanted them to move my entire house when that was clearly not the case-their response was the movers came into a "3-bedroom, 3-car garage house." Sure, because that's where I live. However, they did not even enter the garage or 3 different bedrooms to move stuff. Their deposit is non-refundable because I chose to cancel- yeah, I didn't want to pay an extra $2K to move the amount of cubic square footage I was quoted and given a BINDING estimate for. Jesse from AMD actually just hung up on me when he realized he couldn't bully me into paying an extra $2K into this scam. We went with another (honest) moving company instead and guess what, they agreed I had ~350 square footage of stuff NOT the 550-625 square footage AMD tried to hit me with once they were already in my home, knowing I would be desperate to move. I would wonder why they would lie about the square footage but let's be honest, we all know the reason. SAVE Read more

SCAMMERS, LIARS, RUINED MY PERSONAL ...

DO NOT USE THESE MOVERS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!! I was lied to, taken advantage of, even verbally threatened by these movers! They lied about delivery dates and held my personal belonging in a storage unit for days and days. When they finally delivered, most of the items were either damaged or missing. This company goes by many names! Beware! I contacted a company that went by the name AMERICAN MOVERS INC (turns out they go by many other names that are just as bad. See below) on Friday Oct 24th to schedule a move going from NJ to FL. I requested the pickup date of Wednesday 10/29 and delivery date of Wednesday November 5th. Both dates were confirmed by the manager (ADAM MOSSLIH) on the phone. My belongings were picked up and the driver told me to call ADAM by Friday for an update. Friday the 31st came, I called Adam and he said by Monday he would have a better idea of the delivery time. Try back then. All day Monday my calls were not answered. I called the number listed on the site, plus the number listed on the inventory pick up slip (HERCULES MOVERS US DOT 929343) as well as Adam’s personal cell phone he gave me (3474897225). I decided to use another phone to call from rather than my usual number he knows, and Adam immediately picked up. He gave me the dispatch manager’s phone number and told me to call him (RONNIE 732-501-0498). After many attempts, Ronnie finally picked up and rushed off the phone claiming he had bad service and will back once he speak to the driver. Neither ever returned any of my calls. I called, emailed, texted, and nothing went answered. Finally the morning of the promised delivery date, Adam emailed me saying there was no update on the delivery date, and he would be in contact 2 days before the delivery date. This turned into days and days of no calls backs, random emails saying they never promised a thing and now claiming the agreed delivery time was 30 days. After a lot of headache, arguments, and even verbal abuse from them, my things were finally delivered on Tuesday 11/11. Upon delivery I discovered many of my boxes smashed, many items broken and many missing. The driver was not a part of these companies and said he picked up the items already damaged in this condition when he loaded them into his truck. Upon further investigation I discovered these movers go by many names and have different locations. They are all owned by Eli Yamin: Hercules Movers 426 Division Street Perth Amboy NJ 08861 Hercules Movers / Mini Move USA 1576 Hart Street away NJ 07065 American Movers Inc Ocean Blvd N Long Branch NJ 07740 These movers are thieves.
