GBI can't advise you strongly enough to avoid this company Worst experience with a supposed professional company I have ever had the misfortune to be involved in. This happened a year ago and I still shudder at the experience. Goods were damaged, at 5PM the truck was too full to complete the move. We had to rent a storage space for the left behind furnishings. We stored the goods in the moving truck at Gateway Express Moving facility, several months later when it was delivered to our new home we found broken, damaged goods, 4 missing gaming systems with many games completely gone, jewelry armoire drawers were EMPTY, as if they had been dumped out into a bag. When Gateway Express Moving was informed, he offered 500.00 in compensation, and said we should have watched the movers closer , or perhaps we were lying about the missing and damaged items. We are out thousands of dollars in damaged and missing goods. Gateway Express Moving accepts no responsibility for this.

GBQuoted 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.

GBGateway 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!

GBIf you get a call from this company RUN… If you get a call from this company RUN THE OTHER WAY AND NEVER LOOK BACK! This company is nothing but a bunch of con-artist scammers who will will make you think they are the best thing around. They are a moving broker and will not do the work themselves then send it out to another con-artist scammer who will continue to fleece you and never deliver your belongings at all or deliver them with considerable damage well after they were supposed to arrive. They will then promise to help you with your issues nver to be heard from again. For the love of God never ever ever do business with this company.

GBDisatisfied & 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.
