DO NOT HIRE THIS INCOMPETENT COMPANY!!!!!!!! Do not trust anything they tell you or that is in writing (contract). Our entire experience has been very negative. As a first time consumer for hiring a moving company, I feel as though I was taken advantage of. They under estimated my cubic feet by almost 1/3, causing an increase of $1500.00. The damage that our belongings have suffered are unacceptable and non-repairable. The waiting time to receive your belongings is absolutely ridiculous! They don't tell you that they start counting days (business days) from the first day you are available to have your things delivered. In the contract, there is a guarantee for delivery of less that 500 mile, delivery will be within 10 days. Average is 0-6 days for delivery within 500 mile. We moved approximately 370 miles, had belongings picked up on Sept 6., our first day available for delivery was Sept. 18. We finally received our belongings on Oct. 17. That's 6 weeks after pick up and 4 weeks after our first available delivery date. Keep in mind that everyday that you live without your belongings, it costs you extra money because you either have to buy kitchen ware to cook or eat out everyday. What furniture do you use? Eat, sit and sleep....on the FLOOR of your new home! If you ship your clothing, you've got only the clothes that you carried with you in your suitcase, unless you buy more. We moved to our new home and needed to repair a couple things that would have taken minutes, doing it by ourselves. Since the company held my husband's tools hostage, we had to hire people to do the repairs (costing approx. $4500.00). Please do not hire this company unless you don't mind giving your hard earned money away to a company that is only concerned with lining their pockets with it. Side note: Two of the five men that picked up/delivered our belongings expressed their dislike of the company because "they (the company)don't care about their customers".

Horrible experience Horrible experience Gateway Express is a scam brokerage firm - with great salesmen and no quality. Jared and CJ are liars who will tell you anything to get you to sign - including sob stories about being Vets. They are a disgrace and not to be trusted. Gateway Express subcontracted our move out to two other companies - One Way Movers and Diamond Movers. Both of these companies were equally as horrible. We paid a lot of money and were told our furniture would arrive in 5 days. It took 3 weeks and several items were damaged and missing. One Way packed us in NJ and unloaded our stuff to a warehouse in Baltimore MD for two weeks. From there, our items were loaded onto a Diamond Movers truck that could barely run and indeed broke down on the way to FL causing more delays. When they finally arrived, the crew apologized but said 'this always happens and we have to deal with irate customers!' They refused to take anything off the truck until final payment - in cash - was received because they knew from experience what would happen. Once we realized how much was missing and damaged - we were told to contact the insurance company. Jared 'sold' me the insurance - guaranteeing me his company was so careful - I would never need to use it. I put in a claim for almost $2000 of damaged and missing items - they offered me $120! Several calls to Gateway Express, One Way Movers, Diamond movers and the insurance company (CSI)have all gone unanswered. I am currently working with an attorney to recoup some of my losses. Stay away from this company! i wish I would have done more research before I signed with them! Don't make the same mistake we did!

I was moving for the first time and … I was moving for the first time and looked at many different moving companies but decided to move with One Way Van Lines. I am very thankful that their sales representative, Zeke, explained all the details to me and the movers were quick and professional. The job was just like the estimate and I did not pay any extra fees. The movers were 20 minutes late but I was notified 30 minutes before that they would be late. When the movers came they really took care of my stuff and I had no worries. It was a great moving experience and I would recommend this company!

Used this team a month ago... Used this team a month ago while moving a 14-foot large WALL PAINTINGS from Maryland to Colorado. At the start the Customer Service manager seemed to be slower in responding my calls but yet when she answered she gave me the whole details about how they work and I followed up and my job was perfectly carried out. Everything was carefully handled and am very happy with them.

TERRIBLE COMPANY. DON'T HIRE PURPLE HEART This company contracts out to terrible carriers who are unprofessional, negligent and even criminal. We had numerous delivery times given with no shows, damaged and missing items, and the movers were kicking and throwing boxes. Many boxes were left out in the rain, we have 1/2 a bed, a missing video game console, etc. We now have to go through insurance claims to sort it all out. Purple Heart takes your money and then pretends they'll guide the whole move but basically leave you hanging. They tried to make us sign an NDA in exchange for a small discount so not to write this review. AVOID!
