Advanced Misleading and Damage is a ...

Of the 7 moving companies I've worked with during the last 25 years,none have operated,misled or created such a pernicious system to trick their customers and leave them with no recourse or remedy like Advanced "Moving and Storage." An Advanced representative visited my home for over an hour to inspect all of the items being moved. There was nothing exotic or unusual,no exceedingly heavy furniture or anything else. The representative quoted $3,500,including some better "Repair or Replace" insurance for $125.00 to give me a greater peace of mind. I also asked the representative if there was anything I could do to lower the cost of the move,as the quote was 30% more than what I paid to move a lot more property just 2 years prior. The Advanced said the more I move myself,the lower my cost will be. So over the next four weeks,I made more than a dozen trips and moved about 35% of the contents out of the house. Despite the job becoming 35% smaller,Advanced is insisting on charging me 54% more for a move that involved ripping legs off a home theater cabinet,a wine refridgerator (which also has multiple steel areas on the bottom wrinkled and bent like a piece of paper and a night stand. Rooms and hallways are full of new scratches,dents,marks and stains. Several other items of furniture have significant scratches,some fairly deep. When I asked for a supervisor or manager none was available. Advanced presented me with two options: pay their new higher price (which increased a second time later),or they would take all of my items and keep them locked in storage until I complied with what was essentially ransom. If I didn't pay,my son and I would be sleeping on the floor in our new home. I paid the first masssive increase of $1,000 for a smaller move,but when I said I wanted to talk to someone in management before paying the second,no one was available. The operations manager,who was available to collect money but not help customers,told the crew to put whatever was left in the truck in the garage (they kept a couple things) and cease assembly of my beds and desk. The crew didn't practice basic moving comment sense techniques,like labeling boxes and wrapping furniture in moving blankets,or not putting smaller items in hallways or rooms to make room for the largest items to be put in the room first. They also asked my son to go to McDonald's for them,giving him money for half of the cost of their order,and then having the audacity to ask where their change was. Prior to the move,my recycling bin in the garbage was empty. After the move,it contained beer bottles and my son and I didn't drink any beer. Despite my pleas for help,for nearly three full days,everyone in management was "in meetings." When someone did finally assess my case,they said it "was not that bad." On the beer drinking,management wanted to know if I smelled it on their breath,but I don't usually ge

Stay Away!

This is the review I posted on Google. I'm posting it again, here, because I want as many people as possible to stay away and save themselves from the headache my girlfriend and I went through. This has to be one of the worst experiences I've had with a company. Ever. Unprofessional. Bad customer service. I don't feel like I can say enough bad things about this company to warn people. If I could give them zero or negative stars, I would. My girlfriend hired them for a long-distance move from Chicago to South Dakota. With a moving date set more than two months out (plenty of time for logistics and dispatch to get everything in order) the delivery was delayed almost 2 months. Trying to contact our rep, Tyler, was a nightmare as he was either out of the office or just not willing to take our phone calls until we made it a point to follow up EVERY DAY until he responded to us. The reason for the delays? "Dispatch just couldn't get a truck scheduled for delivery." This was AFTER they had 2 MONTHS to make sure dispatch COULD get a delivery at the requested time. Delivery was supposed to happen in June 2019. We finally got our stuff in August. Tyler then told us to file a delay of delivery claim. So, we filed the delay of delivery claim. They told us they weren't responsible for any truck malfunctions and therefore would not be honoring our delay of delivery claim. So....two months after we were supposed to get our stuff, the driver arrives (super nice guy, honestly the only decent person I dealt with while working with this company) and delivers our stuff. It gets even worse. Not only were they two months late on the delivery, high-dollar items were damaged, moving totes had been obviously opened, and we didn't even receive all of the items. This is the condition of the totes on the day everything was delivered: https://youtu.be/O_341LTc0Ek This company is a joke. Save yourself the headache and frustration and go with someone else.

I couldn’t be happier!

Moving can be a complete disaster if your valuables are in the hands of unprofessional people. But when we hire professional movers, we have to depend on them and in most of the cases they let us down. I have suffered several times in the past. But this time my story had the happy ending.

Impressive work

I could not be happier with how my move went. The movers turned up on time and managed to get everything out of my house without an issue and fast too, despite the difficult stairs at my apartment. They were not only careful with my stuff but worked diligently the entire time. They always replied to my emails and calls. It’s rare nowadays finding a company with that type of customer awareness If I needed to move again I would use Advanced Moving

Fantastic movers

Advanced Moving & Storage was just amazing during my last move. When I called them, the rep on the phone went out of his way to provide me a good quote. All movers were very strong and energetic. They didn’t waste any time while packing. Their packing skills were fantastic and they utilized the packing materials properly. They made the delivery on time as well. I took an inventory and everything was in great condition. I really enjoyed having them as my moving companion.

Price is extremely fair

These guys just rock. They move real fast, are extremely careful, ask questions when they are not sure about something and use common sense where it's needed. The price is extremely fair and competitive and they bring all the packing material like pads and cellophane to wrap the furniture. I used them twice, once for a small room move and another for a full move.

Great job

I just wanted to say that Advanced Moving & Storage guys who helped me move were TERRIFIC! They were right on time, got right to work, and did a great job. They were courteous and they treated my stuff with respect. They wasted no time, but worked in an organized, consistent pace. I don't always write follow-ups, but they really deserve the recognition. Definitely the best bang for buck. Hassle-free and did a great job.

The guys were very nice

Advanced Moving & Storage was very quick and professional in helping me move my business office and residence. Considering a total of 5-6 rooms worth of stuff to move, they were able to get it all done and settled in one day. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to friends. The guys were very nice and polite and were very careful in moving all items. They were fast yet careful and did a great job. Continued their work pace throughout a hot working day, really commend their efforts. Thanks guys! Great price, great service wrapping up everything and got the job done well.

They saved my money

Called Advanced Moving Storage, they sent a truck over in a few hours and the guys had no problem strapping that couch and hauling it up. They also saved me money. I called another moving company before Advanced Moving Storage and they wanted to charge me an additional $ for the same service. Thanks Advanced Moving & Storage, will definitely use your services again.

They dropped our refrigerator and made scratches and dents. It was overpriced. They changed the price from the original estimate. We made a few claims, they damaged a few items. They were also very slow. Behavior was okay. But timing was very slow.

It was done accurately.

It was a move that I had ordered for my sister. I actually was not here when they did it because I was moving furniture from my house here in Chicago to my sister's house in Iowa. I do know that everything was pretty much done accurately. the only issue I had was communication,. There was an issue letting us know when, giving us a status update. There was a long time from pick-up to delivery. We had to call them, they really didn't call us.

I would not use them again.

The people that work for them were okay, but I think the pricing was too high for what to do and it is just, we move form one condo to the next in the same condo complex and I think they were over-charging in my personal opinion and I wasn't very happy with the original thing and we were supposed to get an email confirming all of it but they never sent the email and when they came out they actually charged something a little bit different than what they said. it wasn't that great of an experience and I wouldn't use them again.

I would never recommend them to anyone.

I would never recommend them again. The movers did a fine job loading and it was a rainy day so they covered everything with blankets and secured it. Then they started unloading. Their lead guy did a good job, the two baboon that he ahd working for him decided that the easiest way to get a dresser full of clothes was to come through the from door and make a twisting right turn to go up the stairs and when they twisted the whole thing came apart. They wrecked the thing so bad that they broke the back panel and all the drawers popped out. So I told them to leave the framework right down here, take the drawers upstairs put them in the bedroom. And they took them upstairs and about 5 minutes later I hear this immense crash, came upstairs and what they had done was stack the drawers on eon top of the other and they fell over and they fractured 3 of the drawers. So now instead of having the frame to repair, I now have 3 of the drawers as well. in addition to that I knowingly declined the insurance to cover the 30 cents per weight per item. But when I talked to the claims people they said, that's what you took. That's not designed to cover purposeful damage, it's to cover accidental stuff.

They were delayed and don't answer the ...

The pricing was okay except it took them three weekend for them to refund me because I overpaid. The movers were over two hours late and then a 30 minute drive to a new location took them apparently two hours and they were not answering the phone. They said they were stuck in traffic but I drove my car to the new location and it only took me 40 minutes.
