Read More Would have given a fraction of a star if i could.I have used national moving companies before. None were remotely as bad as this company. They contracted the job to third party who i believed used other operators. 80% + of my stuff were severely damaged, damaged, lost. It was bad does not remotely describe how awful it was. My OLED tv screen was cracked. My glasswares, vases were shattered. My delicate lab equipments were severely damaged. Parts of my spanish furniture were missing. I can go on and on and on. I suffered thousands of dollars in damage. DID NOT RECEIVE A SINGLE CENT . DO NOT ABSOLUTELY USE THIS COMPANY. THEIR PROMISE OF WHITE GLOVE TREATMENT WAS A CRUEL JOKE.

Read More I just received a call from Charter Van Lines after submitting information for a quote and the representative was forceful, became upset and hung up on me because I asked if I could compare moving prices with other companies. Before hanging up he goes, "I don't even know why you're on the phone with a moving company right now." Very unprofessional!!!

Read More My experience with this company started out pretty good. They got my reservation set up quickly with Patrick and they answered any questions that I had. However, I canceled my move on the 1st of July about 3 days after I reserved it. After about a month of waiting and not seeing a refund I called them to inquire about the status of my refund and they stated that they didn't know that I wanted a refund. So then on the 30th of August they finally emailed confirming that they would refund me. However, after a week of again waiting for a refund I still had not seen anything, so I called them back. They said that the refund had been issued and that it should show up in my account within a week. Again I wait another week and I still do not see the refund. This continues for three weeks until finally they offer to just mail me a check for the refund. I gave them my address to mail it to on September 18th and again waited until the 1st of October. When I still haven't received it I called back to check on the status and they told Mee ghat they had never mailed the check for the refund when they said that they had. When I asked how to receive my refund or when I asked to be transfered to a manager they would place me on a hold and leave meon hold until I hung up. This happened multiple times. They still have not given me any way to resolve the issue duspite me sending multiple emails and calling for several weeks. I am not very happy regarding the service that I received from this company. Deffinetly wouldnt recomend using them to anyone after having this experience.

Read More Charter Van Lines misrepresented itself as a moving company but acted as a broker, outsourcing my household move to StreamLine and my vehicle transport to an unknown private company without notifying me. Their lack of communication could have caused significant confusion and frustration. Charter Van Lines created two documents: one for my household items and another for my vehicle. I indicated in both that I would only be available until August 20th. Despite this, they failed to coordinate between the two services, leaving me in a ridiculous situation where they expected me to be available for my car after the 20th, which directly contradicted the information in the documents. This oversight shows a complete lack of attention to detail. Charter Van Lines contacted me at the last minute on a Sunday with minimal payment options for my household items. Thankfully, the driver accepted a Walmart money order, but this was the only smooth part. I had already paid $200 upfront but still needed to receive communication regarding my vehicle. After learning their truck had broken down, I had to scramble to book another company. Only after I secured a new service did a different driver show up unannounced, forcing me to cancel the backup plan. Despite clearly stating I would not be available after August 20th, Charter Van Lines ignored this crucial information and even accused me of lying. Because of their incompetence, I had to rely on friends to receive my car. On top of that, my household goods were delayed, and Charter Van Lines tried to justify it with their 10-day delivery window. However, the company handling the actual move, StreamLine, was professional and helpful, unlike the unprofessional behavior of Charter Van Lines. Charter Van Lines is unreliable, deceptive, and fails miserably at communication. They pass work to third-party companies without informing customers and then try to cover it up. Their reviews appear suspiciously polarized, with primarily 5-star and 1-star ratings, raising questions about their authenticity. If you're looking for a reliable moving service, avoid Charter Van Lines at all costs.

Read More John kept me in the loop the entire time. He called me before the move to confirm the details and give me an estimate. Donald texted me during the move to update me on the progress and let me know if there were any issues. He also followed up with me after the move to make sure I was satisfied and to thank me for choosing Charter Van Lines. The move was a breeze, no drama, and if I had any questions, Michael was always there to holla at.

Read More I recently had a very disappointing experience with Charter Van Lines Inc. and feel compelled to share it to help others avoid the same issues. Unprofessional Conduct: The movers arrived 30 minutes late, were not in uniform, and used an unmarked rental truck, which raised serious concerns about the legitimacy of the service. They pressured me to proceed with the move without a proper explanation of additional charges. Miscommunication: Upon arrival, the movers informed me that I needed additional packing, long carry, and space, which was not communicated during the initial agreement. They claimed I had 17 more boxes than estimated, leading to unexpected and unjustified costs. Increased Charges: The cost of the move was suddenly quoted to be $1,800 more than the initial estimate. The on-site person used a piece of paper and an iPhone calculator to quote this amount, which was highly unprofessional and inconsistent with the initial estimate provided. Lack of Response: Despite my multiple attempts to resolve these issues and request a refund for my deposit, I have not received a satisfactory response from the company. The service provided did not meet the expectations set forth in our agreement, and the additional charges were not communicated clearly or professionally. Overall, I am extremely dissatisfied with the service provided by Charter Van Lines Inc. and would not recommend them based on my experience.
