Poor experience It gave me some recommendations but unfortunately, we had a poor experience with the one we went with. American Van Lines ended up using a partner last minute and it their partner damaged our belongings, did not arrive on time, and did not deliver on time. Will not use again.

Not to be trusted. Ghosted All I could say is I wish I researched this website before using it. I had a terrible experience with a moving company that was recommended by this third party website. Not goin to details but missing boxes, incredibly late delivery, and down right disrespectful service. I mean they literally held my stuff hostage. That said I reached out multiple time to Ryan Carrigan at moving Buddha. The only response I got was fill out our survey. I detailed everything and requested action. NOTHING. I wrote a few times asking to speak on the matter and nothing. Maybe they’re all in bed together. Regardless of my assumptions I would not trust these guys as far as you could throw them. No wonder there reviews are terrible.

totally agree with S.M. Sept post S.M. posting from Sept reflects our experience exactly. DO NOT TRUST what moveBuddha claims. And the negative review I gave to Safeway was taken down from the moveBuddha site. This is an unregulated industry FULL of unreliable thieves.

Safeway Moving Systems is a BROKER Safeway Moving Systems is NOT a moving company. They are a broker. They have no moving trucks and no movers. They simply sell your contract to 3rd party movers that you have no say in. The moving company they gave our contract to had their driver EXTORT money at the door, refusing to deliver if we did not pay an extra $200 cash. They threatened my husband. Safeway was completely unreachable during this time, has still to this day refused to pick up calls, and they have yet to reimburse us for broken items. If you want a moving company, just book with the moving company. Otherwise you must work with multiple moving companies and none of them have to take responsibility for loss of items. Additionally, the initial price estimate is a compete and utter lie. The total price changed with each moving company. And what were we to do? They had all of our belongings as well as our contract. Once again, Safeway was completely unreachable once they had our money.

Used moveBuddha to compare moving… Used moveBuddha to compare moving options between Los Angeles and San Diego and got some pretty good intel out of the process. It's not perfect, but the estimates were pretty good with gas prices rising and in fluctuations. The most helpful part is the filtering of moving companies and the reviews. There are tons of movers to try to choose from so this is a big convenience. The cons are that you still have to work with the moving company directly, but I've seen the quality of options increase and we ended up using PODS for the move.
