Nov 26, 2023Don't trust them with your valuablesDon't trust them with your valuables! My elderly aunt hired Metro Van Lines to ship rare, valuable furniture to me two states away. MVL assured her they would carefully disassemble and reassemble these pieces at each site. One piece was an antique piano. Upon arriving at my home, two movers were not up to the task. One reeked of pot. They did not even know what cargo they had and were not able to reassemble it. They left

Apr 28, 2023HorribleHorrible. Got a $ quote, paid a % of that. Then a month later an amended $ quote, paid a % of that totaling almost $3,000. Then, just prior to pickup they wanted balance paid. This I refused. They refused to supply refund and my CC company sided with them. This disabled vet cannot afford losses like that.

Not only was the estimate I was given and the actual cost of my move doubled, The movers assigned didn’t show up on the designated day. That’s when no one from Metro could be located. The company was closed on Thursday & Friday; even dispatch couldn’t be located for help. When the movers showed up (late) the next day, they added 200 SF to the load without mea
Mar 9, 2023SCAMSCAM. This is a bait and switch company. Told me it would cost me $2600 to move and then head another company show up demanding $6000 at the last minute the day of the move. Then when they delivered my furnature. The TV was broken and boxes were missing. This company showed up in a horse trailer with my stuff!!! Then when I filed a claim they only offered me $60. Don't let this happen to you! I am contacting a lawyer.November 29, 2022Unprompted reviewUseful

Updated Mar 7, 2023ScammersScammers! Bait and switch. First off they are not movers but brokers. They demand payment by ACH, cash or postal money order - you can't fight back that way. Scheduled them for a move - price went up $900 and when I call to find out why I get the runaround, no one calls me back. They took an UNAUTHORIZED ach payment from my account. FRAUD! DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE! In response to the reply. I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THE SECOND PAYMENT! You ex
Feb 14, 2023Thank GOD I dodged a bullet & last…Thank GOD I dodged a bullet & last minute decided to look this company up before paying any money. The sale guy being extremely pushy for me to immediately pay a deposit of $800.. he was SO pushy.. I explained in the beginning of the call that I couldn’t do anything today, that my move is urgent but I’m waiting on my tax refund to do anything, that I can pay the deposit as soon as I get my refund & id need to be moved out
Dec 31, 2022*SCAMMERS* TRUST ME PLEASE PLEASE PLEASETRUST ME PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. Metro Van Lines LLC in Hollywood, Florida are scammers. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY - THEY SCAMMED ME OUT OF $1000.

Dec 31, 2022Metro Van lines LLC ain’t itMetro Van lines LLC ain’t it. So, my bf took over the moving part of our giant relocation 2,000 miles away. Boy, did we dodge a bullet. After searching for movers on Google he got connected with Metro Van lines(Hollywood, FL). They seemed reputable (good reviews, BBB score, etc.) However, they only provide a quote. They then contracted our move with another company, called Movers and Packets Relocation Specialist - the worst! We don’
Dec 28, 2022DO NOT use this company!!!!!DO NOT use this company!!!!!! Like most others are saying this is a big scam with the worst communication. They pressure you to commit without notifying you that they are THIRD PARTY MOVERS and you will not even be doing directly through them! Ben is a liar and pusher as I am sure all other representatives for this company are. They failed to let me know so many details of my move and assured me my stuff would be here in 7-10 business da

I had a last second move for a job opportunity out of state (had to be there within two weeks) and got ahold of Metro Vanlines. They were very prompt and transparent of exactly what was to be expected of me and exactly what I should expect from the movers. I would definitely use metro van-lines again and recommend them to anyone moving out of state.February 23, 202
