Disatisfied & Unresolved I agree with a previous review that any positive reviews have to be fake. The positive reviews here and on their site have been anything BUT what ours is based on the complete silence and ignoring from Tom and his company. In addition, is it any coincidence their Facebook page is broken? I will say, leading up to the collection of our money, we had ZERO issues getting ahold of Gateway. Literally on the first ring, within 2 min via email, etc. They were on point! They made a ton of promises on the phone, had in writing that things would be double wrapped and protected, the whole works! Flash forward a little bit and after we had already paid them the deposit. Found out the rates they gave us weren't valid and misled what they meant at the time the moving company showed up. These guys are a broker advertising as a moving company!!! This means they offload EVERYTHING off their plates when issues arrive and go completely silent...nothing, nada, no way to reach them (they become ghosts)! Since we needed our stuff and moved, we ended up having to pay almost double the original quote. Then we FINALLY get our stuff 30 -45 days later and there's over $6000 in damage because they didn't wrap or protect the things they said they would. Keep in mind, that was almost as much as the move. On the phone, the rep boasted "FULL INSURANCE!" "YOU'RE COVERED!!"...it was a blatant lie! We were offered a measly $45.00. Do NOT use this company...they are a broker, tell you what you want to hear, mislead you, and the disappear! @Tom, if you see this, please reach out! We are willing to reform our review based on getting the help your company promised and we deserve.

dishonest This is a brokers company. I initially chose this company because of the decent reviews and reasonable price. I moved from RI to California. Its been a month and I haven't received my stuff. Gateway told me around 2 weeks but likely 10 days. After the truck was loaded, it was impossible to get in touch with anyone from the office ( I tried many times, voicemails, emails, multiple numbers). This seems to be the theme from another review that I came across. I was able to get in touch with the company they are contracted with who told me their policy is 21 business days. Its been 20 business days and I havent not received my stuff. The company has not been able to give me an ETA. We asked multiple times to speak with someone from gateway but this has not happened. In addition, the contract that is online disappears after the truck is loaded. I am now questioning the authenticity of some of these reviews. Its unfortunate that they choose to act very unprofessionally and are dishonest about the time. All they had to do was be upfront from the start and respond to phone calls.

Quoted for $3500 and charged $6300 Under no circumstances should you use this company, it's a complete scam. Their sales people are slick and promise you the world, but never mention they won't actually be moving you themselves, they just broker the move. Once an issue arises, they take no responsibility and pass it off. Apparently I was severely under quoted on our moving bid. My original quote was for $3800. I was repeatedly told this was an overestimate and that I would be paying more likely around $3500. I was told the movers would pack up furniture for me, all I had to do was have everything else in boxes. That's a lie and I was charged for packing. After my original quote, I sold an entire bedroom set (mattress, box spring, frame, dresser and nightstand) a tv, and a weight bench. Surely I thought I would be paying under $3500 now. WRONG! These guys showed up, packed the truck and then told me it would be $6300. What was I supposed to do at that point, tell them to unpack the truck?!? I can not stress to you enough, you need to go with a different company. Pick a company that will actually come out to your house before the move, take a visual assessment and give you a realistic quote.

Read 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.

Gateway Express is a scam brokerage… Gateway Express is a scam brokerage firm - with great salesmen and no quality. Jared and CJ are liars who will tell you anything to get you to sign - including sob stories about being Vets. They are a disgrace and not to be trusted. Gateway Express subcontracted our move out to two other companies - One Way Movers and Diamond Movers. We paid a lot of money and were told our furniture would arrive in 5 days. It took 3 weeks and several items were damaged and missing. They packed us in NJ and unloaded our stuff to a warehouse in Baltimore MD for two weeks. From there, they reloaded it to a truck that could barely run and indeed broke down on the way to FL causing more delays. When they finally arrived, the crew apologized but said 'this always happens with Gateway Express and we have to deal with irate customers!' They refused to take anything off the truck until final payment - in cash - was received. They knew from experience there was going to be an issue! Jared 'sold' me the insurance - guaranteeing me his company was so careful - I would never need to use it. I put in a claim for almost $2000 of damaged and missing items - they offered me $120! Several calls to Gateway Express, One Way Movers and the insurance company have all gone unanswered. I am currently working with an attorney to recoup some of my losses. Stay away from this company! i wish I would have done more research before I signed with them! Don't make the same mistake we did!
