Midland Van Lines exceeded my expectations!

Midland Van Lines exceeded my expectations! They were prompt, courteous, and very careful with my belongings. Their pricing was transparent, and there were no hidden fees. The whole process was smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy moving company.

Excellent pricing and service

If you need a very good moving company and also at a reasonable amount, hire Midland van lines. They are the one for you! They are very efficient, skilled and professional. They will move you like no other! They have the best team that will take care of everything for you. I hired them a month ago and they made my move so easy and smooth. They came on time and packed everything with care. Not just the packing, they moved everything very carefully too! There were no damages in the end and the price did not change. You can rely on this moving company!

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!

Worst !!!

Sketchy, sketchy, sketchy. Showed up days late, delivered items weeks late. Hard to get updates. And much too expensive. Don’t do it!

Nice work guys

I now know why Midland van lines has so many good reviews! They are truly brilliant! They do move you absolutely stress free and easily! My recent long distance move with them went so well! There were no damages, no extra fees and no mistakes. All was delivered timely and they also offered to help at the new place and did not charge me for it. These guys are efficient, caring, helpful and very professional. I had the best move of my life. I will use them again and I will recommend them to all!

Hiring them was the best idea!

I got to know about Midland van lines from a colleague and I am so glad that I hired them! They made my life so much easier! 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.

CAUTION - NIGHTMARE with this company !!!

My wife received an estimate from Midlandvanlines for our move from Kansas, KS to Nashville, TN. James Lista was our contact person and asked for detailed information about our moving items over the phone. My wife provided a comprehensive list. After confirming the details, James called my wife around 9:00 pm on November 25, 2024, informing her that we needed to pay a deposit of $3,065 to reserve a truck. He emphasized the urgency due to the end-of-year and Christmas season, prompting my wife to immediately pay the deposit by photo check. During the estimation process, James focused solely on the detailed item list and quantities. He sent us a document for signature, which we reviewed without noticing the total estimated volume of 1,127 CuFT. Trusting the moving company's experience, we assumed this volume was accurate and signed the document. On December 7, 2024, just five days before our pick-up date, Gary Parker, who claimed to be James Lista’s boss, called to discuss the inventory list. He stated that the estimated volume of our moving items was significantly lower than normal for our 5,000 sqft house and asked us to pay almost three times the contract amount. Despite our assertion that the volume was calculated by James Lista, Gary repeatedly pointed out that we had signed off on the 1,127 CuFT estimate. Feeling upset, we requested a refund, but Gary insisted that refunds could only be issued if we cancelled the move seven days before the pick-up date. Since he had called us just five days prior, cancelling was not an option, which made it seem like a planned fraud. Unable to reach James Lista, we contacted Midlandvanlines' customer service. Gary called us back, stating that contacting customer service was pointless as he was the sole decision-maker in the company. On moving day, December 12, 2024, the moving truck arrived at 1:00 pm. The movers checked all our items against the list and demanded we pay three times the original contract amount, threatening to leave if we didn't comply. This turned our moving day into a nightmare. My wife and I felt this was a pre-planned fraud. We suspect that James Lista might not be a real person and that Gary Parker could be acting both roles. Their business model seems to involve: 1) proposing a low price with a virtual name, 2) getting the shipper to sign the contract and to pay the deposit, 3) contacting the shipper after the cancel grace period to demand a higher price, and 4) keeping the deposit without providing moving services if the shipper doesn’t agree to pay more. We WILL take LEGAL ACTION to recover the deposit, and any financial losses incurred if refunding and proper compensation is not made shortly.

Smoothest move ever!

Four times in the last decade, I've hired this company, and on each occasion, they've done an excellent job. It seems like they know what they're doing and are professional about it.

Poor communication and lies

Sales were great, problem was moving day and being lied to by dispatch. I was told I needed a Semi for all my belongings, and a 26 ft truck showed up. I called and they assured me another 26 ft would be there. My furniture sat outside in the freezing weather for 10 hours waiting for a Semi to arrive, and it arrived at 2am. Since there was no furniture in the house, we sat on the floor in the house waiting for the Semi that was promised in the first place. This is all after my moving day being confirmed and it was delayed a day. They were very responsive to my messages UNTIL moving day and there was an issue. Now 30k in and NO responses to their lies and poor treatment. Moving is stressful and expensive enough without being lied to.
