We were scheduled to pick up our stuff from claifornia and move it to Indiana. everything was smooth, they got the money of 3k that we deposited and the delivery people came on the day they were assigned to come and within 15 minutes, they started stating they we have more stuff than what we told them when we did not. We went back and fourth with them and Chris who helped us. D

ABABUS•4 reviewsDec 5, 2024Run Far Away from IVLThey are a nightmare! First off we paid much more than the price we were originally quoted. On the day of the move we were told we had to pay even more for items they were unaware of. Except I had sent pics of all items to my sales rep. They refused to listen and made me pay more money on the spot. Also they made me Zelle them money or pay cash. Refused to take credit card! We drove off to our new home, out of state and waited a few days for our it

We were moving from Chicago to British Columbia, from a 1300 square foot 1 bedroom, 2 office condo to a 900 square foot apartment. The greatest hits: Less than a day before they were to come to pack, we are informed we ne

AWANGELA WATSONGB•15 reviewsAug 27, 2024Very deceitful companyVery deceitful company. Once you’ve paid them they aren’t interested in you and don’t return your calls. I did two shipments with them - one was supposed to be air freight and it ended up going to Spain with the rest of the journey by road instead of flying straight to Portugal. Also they are CLUELESS about international paperwork. Had it not been for the Portuguese agent we would’ve been in deep trouble with customs. IVL are just age

All seemed fine until two days before the move when I was told the movers would show up 24 hours early. I reacted badly (screaming I am ashamed to admit) that we were not ready for the movers to arrive one day early. The customer service response was Sorry but there is nothing we can do. Would you like to cancel the move? Previous review

Their prices were competitive and they communicated with us throughout the process. Both the movers they selected to pick up our household goods in the US and deliver them in Europe were professional and efficient.
