Unclear on what the service actually probides I was unaware that I required a parking permit for loading and unloading, meaning that the move had to be cancled. The unpakt team didn't mention that this may be an issue worth investigating, additionally much of the literature on the site says that you don't need to contact your mover before the move because 'it's all settled'. I'm extremely frustrated with their service, when I called the customer service rep they said "oh yea, well you should have done that, I know it's not on our website. Nothing we can do sorry". Not a great experience.

Stolen labor and scam for moving companies and lying to people who book the move Hi to everyone For moving business who wants to do the jobs for Unpakt and customers: People book the move using the Unpakt platform. After, Unpakt hire small moving companies to perform the job. The companies do the job but the payment for the job receives the Unpakt, not the moving company. After, Unpakt is not paying the moving company for the job performed. The moving company calls them, send them multiple emails, and nothing. What are they doing is fraud and they need to be reported for stolen labor. Advice for customers: Book directly with a legit moving company. Don't use the Unpakt platform. They still hire moving companies and in the end, don't pay them. They are using people's money but this money goes into Unpakt pocket, not to the moving company who is moving you. BTW, When you go with Unpakt you pay approximately 20-30% more for your move.

Great concept...HORRENDOUS customer service! I'll be honest...I'm fully supportive of having a middle company guarantee the price of your move (especially if you are going cross country). I've only moved cross-country once but the lack of a transparent pricing structure is unreal and SO costly. There is room for growth in this industry and I'm glad someone is working to improve that process. That being said, the customer service at Unpakt is HORRENDOUS. I highly suggest you make sure you have all your moving inventory is added the first time (or else you will need to re-approve billing as the prices change). This makes for a very unclear process as to when the move actually gets charged to your account. I understand why my move got canceled but the mere fact that the woman on the other end was so horrendous and unapologetic about the cancellation - I'd probably not recommend this until they get their "you know what" together. Be nice to people when they are moving because its a headache. At the end of the day you are in the service industry and positive attitudes go a long way.

You can review your options, but you can also get cancelled at ANY TIME... I like how the company is approaching the moving process and appreciate its efforts. There is potential... However, customer service is definitely lacking in professionalism and policies and guidelines should be reviewed: If a customer successfully books a move (and receives that confirmation in the form of an email), the mover and unpakt should: 1) Honor the commitment or make every possible effort to do so (or don't say that it's confirmed, or guaranteed in the first place) 2) Not allow it to be cancelled from the mover's side. It should be a binding agreement. If in the case that a mistake was made, 3) Proper and adequate notification and compensation must be provided for the inconvenience Saying that "movers can cancel at any time because of scheduling issues" does not make any sense to me as a consumer. If you received my booking, accepted, and confirmed - that should be it - I should have scheduled movers and assured that I can count on the movers to be there, and that unpakt will help stand by me. Unfortunately, this was not the case, and unpakt did not deliver.

Would not recommend We used unpakt for our move from Chicago to San Francisco. The movers came on time and honored the quote provided through the unpakt dashboard. The problems began after the movers packed up our furniture. We still haven't heard from the movers on when our furniture will be delivered. They outsourced the pickup to another 3rd party vendor who doesn't answer their phone. It's been 4 weeks now and I still cannot get a STATUS update. Unpakt customer service tells me to contact the movers. The movers tell me to contact the delivery truck. The delivery truck company doesn't answer their phone. And these guys had the HIGHEST rated reviews through unpakt. I would not recommended unpakt for anyone, just go with yelp reviews, its the same service with a higher volume of reviews off yelp.
