Overcharged, Mishandled, Missing items
I decided to choose Compass Van Lines when they beat the competitor by lowering their price. When it came time to pack up my belongs, they charged me for tape that they did not need to use. I had left to go to the bank because I was charged 150's extra for living on the 3rd floor. My belongs were then pack, this was in August. I called them at the end of September and the did not know where my shipment was, mind you it was suppose to be in storage. When I get my shipment all of my belongs are damage, my bookcase is broken, my desk is broken, and all my boxes have been damaged. But this is not the icing on the cake, my TV is missing. When asked about it the driver continues to say "I am only the driver" and that the other driver quit and left my belongings in the middle of South Carolina. Customer Service wasn't that great either, I had to call about ten times a day to get any answers, and all she kept saying was I need to contact my driver. Shouldn't they be responsible for their drivers actions, and accountable at all times for where they are at. I now have to fill out forms that may take up to three months to process in order to get the money for my television. As a moving company they should hold themselves to a higher standard, I was unhappy in which my shipment was processed and hope that this review helps others.

please beware of this company

overcharges/damages
Compass Van Lines is a rip-off. They give you a low quote over the phone to get your business and then when they pick up your furniture, they doubled my quote. They don't tell you this until they already have your furniture on the truck. They didn't deliver furniture until several days after the promised due date and then when they did come they didn't get there until after mid-night. Said they would be there at 6pm. Waited for 6 hours. Three of the 5 pieces of furniture were broken. They didn't give us ahe appropiate forms to file a insurance claim. Had to make several phone calls over a 3 week period to get these forms. Please beware, this company is a scam.

Changed quote...Lost items
Quoted me a great price. I had everything packaged as the representative told me to have it packaged (wrapped, boxed, etc) Had the exact same amount of items as my quote said I should have. Then when they got there, they tacked on an extra 2000 dollars to what was originally a 2, 300$ quote. Sweet. Then, they wouldn't give me a date that they would be able to deliver my belongings until about 3 days before they showed up in Los Angeles( A pain when you are trying to coordinate moving across the country). Then, when they got there, they had lost roughly 2, 300 dollars worth of stuff. Just gone. (A box full of dress shoes, a high-end hiking pack, and a super high-end sleeping bag). Then the driver got a parking ticket, and wouldn't deliver any of our stuff unless we gave him cash on the spot for the ticket. Almost impossible to get in touch with them once they have your stuff. All voicemail, never return calls. Broke two of my paintings and a 500 dollar mirror(not even going to bother trying to get them to reimburse) Then, added nearly 700 dollars more that they needed in cash for the delivery because they charge an extra 75$ to use an elevator and 100$ per 75 ft from the back of the truck to the furnitures location to the truck. So basically, what was originally a 2300 dollar quote became a 6, 000 dollar ordeal. If you include the value of stuff that they lost or broken it was close to a 9, 000 dollar ordeal. If you use this company your brain is broken.

STOLE STUFF AND DIDN'T FINISH
We hired Compass Van Lines to move us from FL to MD. They stole our $5k TV and several other things. We paid them to set up our furniture as well and they refused to put anything together and left everything there because they said they were Jewish and couldn't work after sundown. It is a LONG arbitration process that is time consuming and costly to get ANY money back. DO NOT USE COMPASS VAN LINES...they are out to steal items. If you look at their history they have changed their name several times and now they are operating out of TX instead of FL. They probably had to move so no one would vandalize their building and trucks...which look nothing like the picture! They are old trucks with the logo painted over with white paint with a bunch of idiots pretending they know what they are doing. Not to mention Avi, the owner. Every time you try and call him you get another voicemail and a runaround where he is not available.

Boss is a scumbag
The boss, Avi, is a total scumbag. He works his employees to the bone, with some work days ranging from 18-24 hours, then expecting them to be in at 8 AM sharp the next day (and every day after that for the most part). Although I never met personally them, I was told by other employees that he hires illegal immigrants. In my own personal experience, along with those of other employees, this greedy lowlife would skimp his employees on their pay and even try to haggle you on the already agreed upon wage. Do yourself a favor, don't work for this company or use their overpriced service (unless you want to get screwed). And please, Avi, do the world a favor and french-kiss a shotgun, you cheap soulless pig-fucker.

There is no complain
My move was nothing but wonderful. The guys were so respectful, fast and professional. All my items were delivered in great shape, I was careful to pack some of the items myself, but even the boxes they packed were done exceptionally! I would recommend Compass to ANYONE!!! They have an A+ on my list.

No one is Perfect... No complaints for us
No complaints from us, Compass saved our asses. No company is perfecrt and I feel the need to defend this company. I would recommend them to anyone. They came through for me when the other moving company that I had hired took all my money up front then never showed!

No complaints here
I could not have done my move with out this team. First of all I would like to thank Lisa, she was so nice when I had questions on the day of my move. My salesperson Sara, and the foreman on the jon Ben. These people made me and my husbands job soooo much easier. Thank you again for being a reliable, well staffed and caring.

OVERCHARGED 4 times
This is the biggest rip off I have ever encountered. We were quoted $850 as the sales rep went through item by item and knew EXACTLY what we had. When the movers showed up (18 HOURS after the time quoted) the told us they would need to charge us extra for shipping materials and extra space. When I got the bill it was $3200!!! When I called to complain, Ben, the dispatcher acting like this happens all the time and said we could just give them our stuff instead of paying, very casually! We could not afford to pay because we did not budget for four times the quoted cost, so now all of our possessions are probably in the homes of this company's employees. PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THIS AND BE A VICTIM LIKE WE WERE
