Agreed on a price, paid the down payment. Items picked up, then charged extra $1000 and threatened to auction stuff. Horrible company. Scam artist.

This company is an absolute SCAM. It's a broker company, not a moving company. They promised me they would beat uHaul prices, and it would just be a 3-part deposit (one part when you book, one part when the items are picked up, and the last part when the items are delivered). Except the first deposit just goes to them to talk to you on the phone. The actual moving company does not get a penny. Once the moving company shows up, the estimate is thousands of dollars more than what was originally quoted. If you decide to back out, you will still lose the money you have already paid. The last two installments are only payable in cash. Once our items were picked up, we were told they legally only had 21 days to deliver our things, but we were guaranteed to get them within 3 days to 2 weeks. They took all of our things and disappeared. Nobody can give me a straight answer (if they even pick up the phone). At this point, I am certain our things have been stolen.

No not use these people. It is the classic bait and switch scam! They will tell you everything you want to hear via phone, then send a “binding estimate” with a low ball cubic square feet. Once you sign and pay your deposit, you are out the money! Buyer beware! They are a freight broker…. Not a moving company!

These folks sold me a lie. I was told unpacking and packing was covered, asked all sorts of questions about the packing, and then the day before I was told I had not paid for that service, would be charged hundreds of dollars more. I ended up cancelling and losing my $600 some dollar deposit. With moving, you need someone who stands by their word.

Please don't make my mistake! I should have just read the reviews before hiring this broker. Total scam and they have the process down cold. I contracted them to move my personal items from Minnesota to Idaho and after 3.5 months, and 3K for a small 5X7 storage unit, they delivered the remaining items that weren't stolen as damaged by some 3rd rate outfit. We video'd the final move and they only accepted cash and the delivery guy was dropping stuff the whole time. I got the police involved in KC and they said they get calls about these companies all the time.

I obtained and paid nearly 2k for the services of this company; Venture Van Lines. To this day (July 3, 2024), I have not seen my belongings, nor do I know where they are stored. I've tried to call the people I initially talked to, so I can possibly arrange for them to bring my things to a storage unit. But no one will answer my calls. And when I finally did get to talk to someone, I got the runaround. Saying the movers would be at my location on Tuesday. Which, by the way, never came! I am angry, frustrated and sad all at the same time! How can they just continue to do this to people? I've read the reviews and most of them were not good. But said basically the same thing I'm saying. There should be some way all of us who have been scammed, and taken advantage of, can get together and do something about this. We shouldn't just sit around and allow them to continue doing this. SMH.

This place is absolute scam artist. Please don't trust them at all with your moving and storage. They don't even have a moving truck, they use third party movers that charge you even more than your original contract. I have filed a claim with my bank to receive my deposit back, and I also cancelled my move completely because I'm not paying anything more than I agreed to in my contract. Don't waste your money on them, and look for a more reputable company.

Scammers! Scammers! Scammers! I don’t think this “company” even has a moving truck. Lies, lies and more lies. I was told for two days a truck was on the way. Multiple stories each time I called. Do not trust this company! Horrible! Horrible! Horrible!
