GBSo bad services!!!!! COMPLETE SCAM. Worst experience I've ever had with any business. We were told by Ken Jackson we were getting a great rate with this company because they didn't act as brokers in hiring physical movers and that their guys were in-house. Despite showing up a day later than the date scheduled on the contract, the movers shared with us that they couldn't honor the contract because we had more cubic feet than expected.

GBRead the fine print...ridiculous I considered using these movers, emailed back and forth, got a quote. The deal breaker was the hidden clause in the fine print that says they can charge you any extra amount they see fit for items over 200 lbs. Well, 200 lbs is not much for a piece of furniture; the average 3 seat sofa is around 200 lbs. So now I have to haggle with them over every piece of furniture they claim to be over 200# when I don't have a scale I can weigh it with? That sound like fun, as they are holding my furniture hostage waiting for me to pay cash to unload it. The girl in the office said "just send me a picture." That is so asinine. How can she tell from a picture whether it is solid wood or pressed wood (you can't); sling frame or high quality wood frame, 190lbs. or 210 lbs? You can't. I could see if they had an upcharge for a piano, or a huge china cabinet that won't come apart, but that's not what the contract says. Over 10 companies responded to my request for a quote, and these are the ONLY guys that have this fine print. So glad I spotted this red flag and then read these horrible reviews. Not worth getting a quote a few bucks less, and then dealing with people like this.

GBDO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. NOT AS RELIABLE AS THEY CLAIM TO BE. Honestly I feel deceived through this whole process. When moving across the country you want to know that your possessions are in good hands and know that your stuff will arrive promptly when they say. Well, the person who booked me failed to tell me a couple of things, 1: that a third party company comes to move you with a shared truck with other people’s belongings (nowhere to be found in the contract) 2: who to make my payment available to, (also nowhere to be found in the contract.) so I was very confused when a company called MAP Moving & Storage came out to get my things and already had my cashiers check made out to Gateway. BUT what he did tell me is that my truck would arrive to the drop off location between 5 and 7 days, which I’m sure you’ve probably guessed by now is a bold faced lie!! Here I am in a new state almost THREE WEEKS after they picked up my stuff without a bed, my clothes or any of my personal items because my stuff sat in Colorado for TWO WEEKS before they even loaded it to a DIFFERENT truck to be driven out to me. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

GBKindly stay away! Used them for a move from Austin, TX to Atlanta, GA. Totally disappointed, did not stick on the schedule for pick up, over priced than initial quote, they wouldn't understand basic mathematic mis-calculations for over charging, they promised to take good care of everything but did nothing but just charge me high. They communicated well until they received the initial deposit. & they are just a middleman - they dont have their own truck. They handed the order to Condor moving system & did not bother there after.

GBLess than one star service Your company “Guarantees a Five Star Experience”. What exactly does that mean? I agreed to make my move with Gateway because of the promises that I was given. You would be there through the entire process, my items would be double wrapped so no need for additional insurance costs, it would be a smooth experience, and those are just a few. As soon as the actual moving company came, since your company is actually just a broker, Gateway stopped doing anything for me. I needed help with some issues from the start and they made me contact the actual moving company and did not help at all. Then, my furniture arrived, completely unwrapped and with $6000 worth of damage. I played by the rules and paid everything I needed to. I filed a claim, and guess what? Since I took Gateway’s word for it, more specifically, Daniel at Gateway, I didn’t pay the extra to get my stuff insured more, so I was out of luck. The claim company offered me a whopping $45...for $6000 worth of damage and one item was something that was going to be handed down to my grandchildren. Now I can’t reach anyone at Gateway. I have been calling and emailing and no one wants to speak to me. I know there is a way they can make this right if they really want to and if you really “Guarantee and Five Star Move”. They clearly are just in this for the quick buck and make promises they don’t intend to keep.
