GOOD TEAM MOVERS LLC DELIVERY DATE LATER THAN QUOTED PLANTATION, Internet
I AM REPORTING THE COMPANY GOODTEAM MOVERS, LOCATED IN SUNRISE FLORIDA.
I WAS QUENOTED INTHE BEGINNING A PRICE BASED ON A FEW ITEMS. I THEN ADDED A FEW MORE ITEMS ONTO MY SHIPMENT AS WAS QUOTED A MUCH LARGER PRICE FOR DELIVERY. MIND YOU, IT WAS AN INTERNATIONAL MOVE. I WAS SHOCKED THE QUOTE OF 8000.00 TO MOVE BOXES, 2 QUEEN SIZE BEDS, 3 DRESSERS, 2 SIDE TABLES WAS FOR THIS PRICE. I HAVE USED ALLIED VAN LINE FOR MY 1ST MOVE FROM TORONTO CANADA TO CORAL SPRINGS FLORIDA AND THAT WAS FOR A 3 FLOOR HOME, TWICE THE FURNTIURE AND THAT COST WAS ONLY 9000.00.
AFTER HEARING WHAT IT WAS GOING TO COST AFTER EVERYTHING WAS LOADED ON THE TRUCK, I ASKED THEM TO TAKE IT OFF. THE TRUCK WAS LOADED ON DEC 15, 2011 AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE 7 BUSINESS DAYS TO ARRIVE IN CANADA.
I HAVE CALLED, EMAILED, THEM SINCE DEC 23 AND TOOK 3 DAYS FOR THEM TO GET BAcK TO ME.
WHEN THEY GOT BACK TO ME THEY SAID"THEY CAN'T GET A HOLD OF THE TRUCK AND DON'T KNOW WHY IT IS NOT THERE. THE OFFICE PATCHED ME THROUGH THE DISPATCHER AND HE SAID HE WAS IN NEW JERSEY AND WILL BE DELIVERD ON JAN 2, TODAY, JAN 2, I HAVE EMAILED THEM AND LEFT SEVERAL MESSAGESS, THEIR MACHINE IS ALWAYS ON AND NO ONE TO TALK TO.
OH, DID I SAY I PAID THEM IF FULL OF 4285.50.
PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS COMPANY, DO NOT PAY ANY MOVERS IN FULL TILL YOUR ITEMS ARRIVE AT THE OTHER END. (THIS IS WILL GIVE THEM INCENTIVE TO DELIVER AS PROMISED.)
A GREAT NEW YEAR LESSON.

Pricing Sounds Right.....

The pricing doesn't matter because all of your things would fit onto one partially full lift van; whether your items consisted of a 3 story house, or just a few things. In the end, the cost to move the items would not vary much, so the $8000 quote was about right.
Now you're stuck trying to do the move via truck?? Think about this. If you do a move by truck is the domestic US, the company can take up to 30 days after the 7 business days to deliver and they would not be breaching the contract with you. Why?? Because that requirement is set by Federal Law. Since you basically are doing the equivalent move except going to Canada, the terms are pretty much the same....30 days after 12/25/11. If you were required to pay them in full upfront, you picked the wrong company to do the move..... Reputable companies don't ask for that upfront.
You definitely learned an important lesson....best of luck to you!!
