Rip Off / Scammers
Submitted this review about Moving On Up Inc. Review made Live: 8/19/2011 5:00:00 PM
Be warned, these guys sound professional on the phone, they are not. I needed three items moved on a local move, less than 6 miles away. A big 70 inch TV, and two couches with built in recliners on each end. I was quoted $316. In fact I was quoted the same exact price from several movers since most have a minimum requirement.
I spoke with Toby, he's very convincing when he tells you they are professional movers, they are not. The first thing the movers tell me is the TV needs to be 'crated' in order to be moved. And yes this is a big TV, its a rear projection and its huge. Thats an extra $30. 'Crating' consisted of taping some cardboard boxes over the blankets they tape on to it. Right here was when I got a bad feeling that these were professional scammers. The two guys they sent out could not figure out simple things, like how to maneuver a couch thru a door way. Then I knew they were NOT professional movers.
They damaged the TV because they tried to lift it of the front porch, on to the driveway (about an 8 inch drop) and dropped the TV on the edge of the porch. Granted, only cosmetic damage, but this TV was in perfect shape.
I know two other family members who are moving, and they are also looking for someone to move them, I even told these people that, hoping they would send their best movers. Wrong. Now all I can do is warn my family members to NOT us Moving on up. They need to move on OUT of the moving business.
THESE GUYS ARE SCAMMERS AND COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL! Fortunately for me it was just a small move.
