The movers came to pick up my items. You guys estimated just way over what Safe ship said it would. I paid 1128 upfront to them and then it was supposed to be roughly 850 upon pick up and $850 on delivery or even plus $500 for various other things. Their estimate after loading my items ended up being just under 4,000! That’s after my upfront payment. I gave them $850 in pick up I told them I can not afford that estimated amount upon delivery. I even left my living room end table and chest of drawers from my bedroom and various other items. If I had known it would end up costing that much I would have gone with another company. I live alone, am a below the knee amputee, and am not in a financial position to pay that kind of money. Plus packed is my other prosthesis and various other assistive devices needed to function daily. They have those in possession. All my things were already in the moving truck before realizing the high estimate. I needed to vacate my apartment as my lease was over 7/1. This was 6/29/24. This is bad practice on both sides. Safe ship and Perfectly fast movers. I can understand a $500 difference but not $2,000. That’s just ridiculous. I’m going to need assistance from to remedy this situation so that I can get my items delivered upon arrival once they are able to deliver. There needs to be better communication between Safe ship and you the moving company to make sure customers are better prepared for what will actually be charged. because in the end you are screwing your customers royally. I’m not going to be that one. Because I literally don’t have the money. I budgeted for the estimated cost, plus a few extra hundred dollars but that’s it. Again please assist me with this matter.
Below are responses from Safe Ship and am still waiting to hear back from Perfectly Fast movers.
