False 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....

Accommodating 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.

IVL: Loss, Damage and Theft I contracted with International Van Lines based on positive online reviews. I moved from PA to CA in March 2019. Their staff did over $2,000 worth of damage to my antique wood furniture, lost boxes of china, crystal, family heirlooms, and some old jewelry and silver went missing (even though the cases and stands these items were in arrived). After paying $15,000 for the move (much demanded in cash), my loss is estimated at $25,000. I was offered $500 if I signed their release form (which I refused to do), and am now said to be due around $100. The communication was terrible once I signed and sent the deposit, as was almost everything else. DO NOT USE INTERNATIONAL VAN LINES.

Pushy sales guy “Nico” We are moving overseas. My wife called this company for a quote and instead of them explaining how it was all going to work, the sales guy simply pressured her for 2k on our credit card. He said that they were “at capacity” and that we needed to pay now to “reserve a spot”. B’bye! Goes to show that even though the CEO seems has such an inspirational story, it doesn’t always translate to good customer service. By the way, they do 80% shipping in the USA. So much for “international”.

They use workers hired that morning from the HD parking lot Do not use this company! They just hire a cheap local contractor who will do a crappy job and keep your money. My delivery crew was literally hired that morning from the local Home Depot parking lot. While this inexperienced crew damaged all my crap, the driver just sat in the truck and did nothing. Over $5k in damage and they just left everything by the front door. Didn't reassemble any of my furniture. And then just lied and made excuses during the complaint process. Actually said they sympathized with the driver while admitting he violated company policy. Save your money and your stuff and hire someone else.
