DEDon't use this "moving company." Don't use this "moving company." Took nearly 14 months for a small shipment to arrive in Germany from US. Half of the shipment was lost, appeared months later in the UK, and took another two months to get to Germany. In US, packers showed up in an Enterprise Rent-a-Truck, all nice guys but only one had ever packed things before, and I had to show them how to do it. Once packed up, the company was quick to bill me for the entire shipment, but never, or only weeks or months after me repeatedly asking them, responded to my queries about the location of my effects and their likely shipment date. Including this company, which appears to be nothing more than a broker operation, I dealt with at least four other companies, all of which have their own rules, and didn't always deliver the service that I paid the "moving company" for. I've moved many times over the years and can tell the difference between a professional operation and fly-by-night jobs. Avoid this company.

GBI hired international van lines for a… I hired international van lines for a move from Wisconsin to Missouri. I was assured during the deposit process my move wouldn’t take longer than 7 days despite the contract mandating 21 days (seems like that was just a formality). We only saved 1,000 from hiring a local company. That 1,000 was not worth it. It has been so stressful, they seem understaffed, etc. just go local- when it is such a stressful time in your life, it isn’t worth going with this company.

HKThey are awful They are awful, very unprofessional. I had the worst experience moving from LA to Hong Kong with them. The shipment took more than 3 months to arrive and whenever I tried to contact them I was going straight to voicemail and they never answered any email. I really thought I lost all my stuff. When the shipment finally arrived, there were hundreds of dollars of additional charges. They are awful STAY AWAY!!!!!

GBFalse first impression First impression - great. The quote was quick and straightforward. But as soon as we signed the contract things have gone south. Absence of communication to begin with - they take time to email back and when they do, eventually, their - Trisha's - response pretty much says "we don't care". When you call for anything else but a quote you get a host of voice memos and end up in a voicemail. Delivery date after a storage period? Make sure you talk to the contractors ahead of time because IVL does not care. Extra services contracted via IVL - like moving a precious piano - we are still waiting for that to be completed....

INAccommodating and always pleasant. Moving is very stressful, but International Van Lines sure made things easier! I would give them ten stars if I could! They were accommodating and always pleasant, and they showed up ON TIME and were ready to work. The workers are VERY STRONG and had no problem moving our safe and appliances down a spiral staircase.
