Moving company in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Recently I moved from NY to Florida . Elite Van Lines team were on time and all work was done in the time estimated . Very professional and friendly. I found them randomly online at last minute but they made everything happen according to my time slots. Thank you for making my first experience of moving hassle free.
I was told one price. The price changed THEN I had to wait an extra 3 months to get my items. After calling consistently, I was told my items were going to be dropped off WITHOUT having to pay the drop off fee. That was a lie. AFTER paying the drop off fee I was told I'd get a refund for it. My number got blocked after I reached out to provide them the info. STAY AWAY!
The team is great and a pleasure to work with. The managers are very accommodating and cheerful. I have used Elite Van Lines multiple time over the past few years and I have never been disappointed. I highly recommended Elite Van Lines for your move. Thank you very much Elite Van Lines.
Dan and Russell arrived a few minutes early and were very professional and courteous. They took care of our job very efficiently and with no problems. I would recommend Elite Van Lines to anyone.
Horrible company, they are scam artists. They are brokers who use companies that are not licensed by the DOT. They will give you a good estimate and then triple the price and hold your items forcing you to lay cash or money orders. They damaged my items and never paid for damages. The worst company I have ever dealt with on a move. It’s a red flag when they won’t accept credit cards. Do NOT hire them. Find a company who accepts cards and do a good search to look for fake reviews.
do not hire this company. Packers ruined an expensive piece of art and the company is conveniently not returning my calls or taking any responsibility for it. They also underestimated the cost by over $7,000. Hire another company with customer service who stands behind their promises. You can clearly see the damaged picture, from 1906, and the garage with the mish mash of decorator items, tools and everything in between that was dumped together on a truck and not packed.
I contacted a site that connected me with Elite Van Lines. I literally needed movers same week and everyone was quoting crazy prices. Elite Van Lines was a miracle, they were quick, they followed up and the movers were amazing! They even finished before time. Great Price Great Service. The only issue I had was a preference, they prefer you to do everything while on the phone with them, not the worst thing but wish they mentioned that method.
Don't use them. They're a broker, so they don't actually move your stuff. They contract to the cheapest companies. Thus, it's likely poor quality movers will move your stuff. The sales lady was sickly-sweat and indignified that I was taking my time trying to find the right movers. She said she would have to take away an "early birds" discount if I didn't make a decision soon. This was the only thing keeping this company clearly in the lead price-wise, so I got scared into choosing them. She also totally shammed me. She asked what I was being estimated by another person, I mentioned the weight estimate. This company doesn't charge by weight, but she used the fact that they were estimating nearly a thousand pounds less as a reason why not to choose them, even though square footage had been the same. Apples to oranges. I did not realize that the notice on the estimate stated "we can change the price of things on this invoice day of pick-up." I thought it was saying "we will charge you more if on day of pick-up you have more stuff." So day of pick-up, even though I had a list of nearly three-times the length of the estimate, most of it was small boxes. So an increase by maybe a third of volume somehow ended up doubling my costs. I am fine that I was charged more for the extra stuff. I expected it. When I was doing estimates, I had barely packed and thought I had estimated correctly. But since it was a home full of stuff we had inherited, I had no actual clue how much we'd pack up. (NOTE: I will discus the movers. They clearly state they do not assume liability for the move itself: that's on the movers. However, as the person choosing said companies on my behalf, and since they never clearly told me who the movers were, I believe the actions of the movers should reflect on this company.) Movers were a day late from their two-day window. Elite told me it was a truck breakdown that caused this. I told the movers I was happy they were okay, and they didn't even seem to know what I was talking about. Otherwise, the guys were really nice. Do note, they did not use furniture padding to pack anything. Just plastic wrap and tape. When discussing the extra items, the guy was nice about it. Said the truck had so much extra room for situations like this. The company had estimated 6-10 days for delivery. The movers said in about 5 days to expect a call to schedule delivery. After a week and a half of nothing, I and my realtor contact Elite. No solid answers. At some point they say "Oh, we don't normally start even trying to schedule delivery until 10 days have elapsed." Wow, would have been great to know. 2 and a half weeks after our stuff was picked up, we get a two-day delivery window. We hear nothing from either Elite or the movers during this time. The next week, we get a new delivery date. They ran behind. Finally, 28 days after delivery, they arrive. I had asked multiple times if the company did 2nd stops, since our move was a temporary down-size while we sell and then buy a home. They said within 15 miles, second stop is free. Movers arrive, "second stop is always a fee." Thankfully we have a garage. Half our boxes were crushed. Furniture chipped and scratched. We're missing at least a 40' TV. They records I was give faded within a week, so I can't actually check and see what we did or didn't get. As you can imagine, things were shattered, chipped, broken. More than should have been. I have moved myself multiple times. I have only broken 1 or two things ever. I know I packed this stuff well. Also, I keep seeing them defend their extra charges by saying "They had X number of items on their list, but actually had more..." They're charging by the square foot. I had estimated 40 medium boxes. Instead I had like 80 small or smaller boxes and 10 or so medium to large. Because I had a lot of heavy or fragile items: medium boxes didn't make sense. Anyway, let my horror story be a lesson: never choose this company. They do not care about you. They just want your money.
Bunch of broken and missing items on arrival. Was told I'd get a refund for those. It's been 6 months and they still haven't sent the refund. My price doubled from my quote. I ultimately had to leave stuff behind and throw a ton of things away. I gave exact dimensions for everything I was packing PLUS 10 additional big boxes just in case (which I didn't need). Didn't matter. Driver showed up, loaded all my stuff, and then AFTER he had everything I own loaded, said it took up more space than he thought so I owe him more (which is illegal btw). He made me unload furniture from his truck myself to try to reduce the price to closer to what I was quoted. It was all super shady and I was threatened multiple times ("Well I have all your stuff now, so you can either pay me what I'm telling you orrrr...") I called Kristie at customer service and she said "well that sucks. You should just pay him. Nothing I can do" Customer service is awful and un-responsive. Kristie seems nice but she'll gouge you, lead you on, and then leave you out in the cold. Good luck. 2/10 experience. Most of my stuff did actually show up and wasn't stolen, so that's a win. But it was for twice as much cost, headache, twice as much stuff broken, twice as long, everything... This experience was awful. Both on pickup and delivery. Scummy company
I chose this company because their initial quote seemed affordable, but what a mistake that was. By the end of the move, I was hit with all kinds of hidden charges. They charged extra for stairs, tape, and even for using blankets to protect furniture, which I thought was standard. None of these fees were mentioned during the initial quote, and my final bill was nearly double. They knew I had no choice but to pay, and the whole thing felt like a scam.
