Worst Experience with a Mover in my life
When planning a move, some things might seem obvious. You want to get a price for getting your belongings packed, placed on a truck, and delivered safely to your new home. You might also consider guarantees regarding the possibility of a loss due to damage or misplaced items. The quality of all of the work being offered also matters. Well, Midland Van Lines fell far short in every category and many others. Beware! This company is NOT a moving company with trucks and workers that are hired and supervised by a corporate structure. The fact is that the moving company business consists of movers and those who contract with movers. Midland will work very hard to convince you, if you inquire, that they are a full-service moving company. Do NOT believe them. They are a contractor. We saw two different trucks and two different crews. The competence of each crew was also quite different. Read their contract carefully if you are foolish enough to hire them. Two items stand out. They cover loss by paying by the pound but charge for the move by the cubic foot. They pay 60 cents a pound for damaged items. They do not cover any furniture made with fiberboard, such as almost all furniture sold by IKEA. Midland Van Lines failed to give me a set price. They gave me an estimate, called one week before the move, and altered it based on exact descriptions of items. They then upcharge for that change. We refused to accept the higher estimate. On the day of the move, the contract states that you shouldn’t allow the movers to place any items on the truck until they give you a guaranteed final price. They refused. Now what could we do? We were stuck. So, delay our move? Not possible in almost any scenario, right? So, we let them load the truck. When finished, they said, we will either lower or raise the price based on the final cubic feet calculations. Did we get to measure? No, we had to trust them. The contract meant nothing. The increased cost was $1282.80. Now, about our move. They lost items and couldn’t find them. They delivered items that weren’t ours and didn’t attempt to recover them for their owners. They refused to cover the loss because of that fiberboard clause. They offered a $50 courtesy payment for my loss of over $450 of items that didn’t arrive. Two different moving crews and trucks were involved in my move. I paid three different entities, and only one was Midland Van Lines. The others were all contractors. You will find many reviews of this company, and they will all include some version of our story. Hire a company that gives you a set price, reasonable guarantees for loss, and has equipment and crew hired by them. This usually means someone local. Beware, some companies are NOT local and have similar or the same name as local companies. We believe our move was unsatisfactory due to the upcharge and undelivered items.

Incomparable to other companies
I hired Midland van lines for my move because they were recommended by a friend. They gave me a very reasonable quote and promised to take good care of my stuff. The crew arrived on time and worked very efficiently. They packed everything carefully and properly and then loaded them onto the vans. I was very pleased to see how they put everything in vans trying to minimize damage later on. My belongings arrived right on time and everything was in good condition. I certainly understand why they have such a good reputation. They really are the best in this business.

Positive experience
I had a positive experience with Midland van lines. They gave me a good deal and moved me like a king! The moving team came on time and packed everything up very quickly. All the glassware, fragile items and expensive items were nicely packed and moved. The furniture was also nicely carried and moved. Not a single dent and not a single damage! I really loved how everything was returned back to me in one piece. My experience was great! I highly recommend this moving company!

I was so tense about moving, but the guys from this company made this experience very smooth and easy. The guys came on time and moved everything with care. They moved the furniture very nicely and did not damage anything while they were passing the narrow hallways. They were clearly very efficient and professional. They moved me without any damage at all! Thank you once again! I will recommend this company to everyone.

Fabulous job
Midland van lines certainly knows how to move you! They are very quick, professional and efficient. They moved my one bedroom apartment cross country and they did a fabulous job. They were punctual at every stage and they moved every single item with care. There were no damages in the end and there were no extra fees. Everything went according to plan! For the first time in my life, I did not need to suffer! I give them 5 stars without any doubts! I will use them again and I will recommend them to all.

They took time but did a good job
We had a lot of things and Midland van lines had their work cut out while they moved us. They sent their crew right on time on the moving day. It took them 4 hours to meticulously pack every item we own. I am not complaining about the amount of time they took simply because if I had to do it myself, I would have taken forever. The movers delivered everything on time and unpacked everything properly. I suggest everyone hire these guys.

Such an affordable moving company
Moving companies are just so ridiculously priced these days. However, there is Midland Van Lines which is not expensive at all. This company wants to provide quality services to the middle class people. They have vans that work just fine. They employ men who are experienced enough. They charge you pretty low but really give you a great service. They took such good care of me and all my stuff when I hired them. I am forever grateful to this company.

I loved how they dealt with every situation
This moving company is very experienced and skilled. They have a solution for everything. The day they came to work, the lift was not working. They did not mind at all and they moved everything by the stairs. They packed everything so well that nothing got damaged. On delivery, they could not get the furniture in from the door. You know what they did? Somehow, they got it in from the window! It was so amazing! I have never seen such an amazing crew. I will use them again and I will recommend them. Midland van lines is like no other!

I like to be in charge
Recently I hired this moving company to move me cross country and they gave me an excellent crew. They were very obedient, caring, professional and experienced. I was in charge the entire time and the moving crew did exactly what I wanted. They moved everything so smoothly! Everything was delivered without any damages and without any scratches. It all went well! Their pricing was low and it did not change in the end. Whenever moving will come up, I will hire Midland van lines without any hesitation! They are worth it!
