    New Start did in fact work with me. Please disregard my previous post. Could not find a way to remove it.

    Original Review: Nov. 29, 2025

    The worst!!!! They are con artists! I paid a $500 deposit for my move. Then the moving company came (late) and wanted to charge for everything! To wrap the TV, etc. I was also expecting my move to be same day. I’m moving 4 hours away. They told me 5-7 days and that my stuff would be on a truck with other people’s stuff. NONE of this was explained to me and my husband. As a Disabled Veteran, I’m reporting them to Redstone and Ft. Moore. My aim is to get this company banned from taking advantage of service members! We reserved a U-Haul and got a better deal with someone local. Please do not even consider using them for a move. Oh yeah, they took my deposit and said it was non-refundable. Shaking my head.

    After I posted this review I got a call from their customer service department who patiently listened to all that happened. They could not apologize enough and said that is not appropriate. Apologizing again I was offered a price concession. I would recommend asking questions and reviewing the documents in detail and ask for extra time. Again the actual moving company they partnered with was fabulous. I appreciate that they took the review seriously which showed they cared!

    Original Review: Nov. 20, 2025

    If there were negative stars they would be negative 1000000000. They lie to you about the cost and purposefully wait until after the cancellation period to get your inventory. They do ask at the beginning but don't write everything down. My move doubled the day before the move and was another 1000 after the actual movers came. Silver lining the actual guys that did the move were awesome. I will go direct to them next time!

    I paid a non-refundable deposit of over $1,900 in anticipation for a move for a new job. The job offer was rescinded, so I called to ask about a refund. I was told I only had 72 hours to cancel in order to get a refund. After some back and forth, they agreed to give me $583.50 of the money back, claiming that "money had been spent in anticipation of my move." Imagine my surprise when my credit card company called, stating that this company was attempting to CHARGE me this amount, not refund it, and that they had it set up as a RECURRING CHARGE! Steer clear.

    I wish I could give zero stars to VTR Line Moving. What started as a simple move quickly turned into one of the most stressful and dishonest experiences I’ve ever had. I booked through a broker who gave me a clear price and assured me everything was set. But when VTR Line Moving showed up, everything changed. The movers suddenly claimed my inventory was “larger than expected” and demanded almost double the price on the spot. I was stuck — it was moving day, I had to leave, and they knew it. It felt like a shakedown, plain and simple.

    Their manager, Greg, was incredibly rude, arrogant, and dismissive. He raised his voice, made inappropriate remarks, and showed zero professionalism or empathy. It was obvious they were taking advantage of people in stressful situations. To make things worse, my delivery was delayed and several items arrived damaged. When I tried to get help or file a claim, nobody responded. Emails, calls, voicemails — nothing. Once they had my money, they completely disappeared.

    Johnny and his team treated our goods with care and respect. Even though we paid by the hour they did not slow down, even after a long day of moving.

    So, I would like to tell you about my experience. I recently moved from Denver to Tampa with my children and small dog Silly, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from this company. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, professional, and friendly. The team explained every step of the process, provided a fair quote with no hidden fees, and stayed in touch throughout the entire move.

    On moving day, the crew arrived on time, handled my belongings with great care, and worked efficiently. Also they wrapped all fragile items securely, labeled everything clearly, and even helped with some last-minute packing. The delivery to Tampa was right on schedule, and nothing arrived damaged or missing (which is impressive for such a long-distance move😃). What really stood out was how courteous and hardworking the movers were. 👍🏻 They made a stressful cross-country relocation feel smooth and organized.

    DO NOT use New Start Relocation. This company knowingly, intentionally and willfully lied to me about how the move go and what the final cost would be. Kent in dispatch is a 100% con-man absent any honesty and or professionalism.

    LIES:
    - I was promised a delivery window. DID NOT HAPPEN.
    - I was promised there would be no transfer fee. THERE WAS A HUGE TRANSFER FEE.
    - I was promised access to 24/7 customer service. DOES NOT EXIST.
    - I was promised access to Kent in dispatch for the entirety of the move. HE WENT AWOL.

    - The available customer service was NOT helpful at all.

    This company is TERRIBLE. I believe the operation to be corrupt. They will promise the moon to get your money, assign your move to some random moving company and then ghost you completely as everything you were promised DOES NOT HAPPEN. They need to be investigated by State and or Federal authorities for illegal business practices.

    UPDATED ON 12/30/2025: Absolutely horrible experience. The broker that was hired to do the actual move screamed in my face and hung up on me while I was in the middle of explaining something. He constantly talked over me and was disgusting. I have never in my life been treated so poorly as a paying customer. I tried explaining that the space would be much less because I had to remove a stop from my quote. He then proceeded to tell me I'd still be charged the same amount regardless of what was on the truck whereas Suzy from New Start said it would be adjusted if there were less items.

    I'm absolutely in shambles. After I spoke to Lawrence the first time, I never heard from him again. Do not recommend.

    This company is a full on scam. The first liar, Gianna ** provided me an estimate and undercut the amount of things I had. My rates were supposed to be all inclusive at $2805 and change. First Class Movers, who should be called Low Class or No Class Movers, raised the rate to just below $6000. They did not follow their own contract, but forced me to so it could benefit them. They did not get all my things as the contract stipulated they were to do, and they tried to charge me extra for going to get my storage. They damaged my headboard by breaking one of the feet off it and never wrapped up or broke down my white sofa. They had a third party deliver in a semi truck and he tried to swindle me as well for extra money to put things in my storage. He was just as bad as they were. His name is Shuilegin **. He's a swindler as well.

    In the end, I had to get a U-Haul and meet the guy from Family Van Lines behind a Walmart to get my things and then pay another set of people to move my things into my storage. My sofa has a footprint in the left inside arm and it is nasty from all the dirt due to never being wrapped up. They never put the broken pieces of my bed with my things so I could try to get it fixed. As a matter of fact, they put on the delivery paperwork that the sofa was broken down. They also signed my name to papers I had not seen before. These people are crooked and schemers!!!!

    I will be glad when they finally get what is coming to them. They stored my things for 30 days for free but would not tell me where it was being stored. They don't care about the public, especially single women! They threatened to put my things out on the ground if I did not pay them what they said. They also signed my name to papers I had never seen before. They only care about lining their pockets. Low lifes!!!! I don't even know if I have all my belongings... They get a zero from me. They don't even deserve a one rating!!!!

    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We take all customer concerns seriously and have completed a thorough review of this account.

    New Start Relocation acts strictly as a licensed moving broker, and all transportation, packing, storage, and delivery services are performed by the motor carrier selected and contracted for the move. Final charges are based on the actual inventory and services performed at pickup, as outlined in the signed Order for Service and Bill of Lading, which are reviewed and acknowledged prior to loading.

    At pickup, the carrier documented additional items and services beyond the original estimated inventory, which resulted in a revised cost that was presented before services continued. We understand pricing changes can be frustrating; however, adjustments are permitted under federal regulations when inventory differs from the estimate.

    Regarding the allegations of forged signatures, hidden storage, and threats, we have no documentation or evidence supporting these claims. All paperwork on file reflects standard industry procedures and customer acknowledgment at the time of service.

    As a courtesy and in good faith, storage was provided at no cost for a period of time, and we remained in communication attempting to assist despite the challenges encountered. Any claims for damages must be submitted directly to the carrier, who is legally responsible for handling and resolution.

    New Start Relocation has made several attempts to contact you to come to a fair resolution, However you have stated there is nothing we can do to address the concerns you have mentioned.

    We regret that this move did not meet your expectations and encourage you to contact our office directly if you wish to formally submit documentation so the matter can be reviewed further.

    The company was quite responsive to start. As the move came closer, I started to have doubts, but they gave a lower quote and I made a deposit. They told me the name of a moving company they used in a town not far from me, saying they used them often. When they came, their paperwork indicated they were from another city. It was too late to change. The movers packed up everything and said the price might change - which it did. They also left a mess in the house which we had to clean up. I should have checked & encourage everyone to check here & with the BBB on anything that has your personal effects/property. Once they have it, you are under their control.

    After calling several moving companies, I called New Start Relocation. Lawrence was very professional, displayed consideration, and compassion due to my urgent situation of relocating my father. His first quote blew the other moving competitors away, which most gave me at least 2 quotes, making it obvious other companies claiming to help veterans, were really out to get the most personal commission for their sale. But Lawrence of New Start Relocation, was genuine and sincere in helping my father, a military veteran. I can't speak highly enough about his due diligence. Lawrence, walked me through everything and I never felt like just another customer he was trying to make a sale to. My father's items were delivered promptly from Nv, as told. I paid my deposit, half at pick up, and the balance on delivery to Tx, 3 days later.

    The only thing I didn't care for was the additional charge of $160.00 by the packing movers for each additional 60 feet to their truck. As for the $75.00 second level fee, I understood, because it was explained during initial contract, but, NOT, the distance to the truck's proximity from the apartment, which I know had nothing to do with Lawrence. Thank you to Lawrence and the delivery team Juan C, at NSR. I may call upon you to move my things too, in the near future. Apologies for the delay of my review Lawrence. You are very appreciated.

    AVOID NEW START RELOCATION AT ALL COSTS!!!! TLDR; I would rather move every piece of furniture in my home…singlehandedly… in a snow storm… than deal with this company ever again. What I wanted was a new start, and what I got was a good old mess. Read below for an extended account of this relocation nightmare: This company is the definition of unprofessional and lazy. A COMPLETE lack of attention to detail nearly caused my entire move to be delayed and the way they handled the situation was beyond frustrating. I’ve never encountered such mistreatment AND disorganization from a service that’s supposed to handle logistics.

    When I tried to get support, the customer service was rude and unhelpful. They also hound you for the first deposit and then get very hard to reach after they have your money!!! After I got heated they even threatened to cancel the move and leave all of my stuff on the curb. Please also take a close look at the so called “5 star” reviews. Many have been posted from a photoless/stock image account and the reviews contain random bolded words…a clear sign they were written in bulk by ChatGPT. I guess their media manager cuts corners too lol.

    If you care about your time, your belongings or your peace of mind, PLEASE find another company. New Start Relocation is NOT it friends. As an alternative, I’d recommend piece of cake. Their starting prices were higher, but they don’t nickel and dime you w/ hidden fine print charges, and the professionalism/support…night and day.

    Thank you for sharing your concerns. We understand how upsetting a moving experience can be when it does not meet expectations, and we take feedback like this seriously.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker). The physical pickup, transport, storage, and delivery of household goods are performed by the assigned, licensed motor carrier, which is also responsible for inventory records, documentation, handling, and delivery routing. Carriers may utilize consolidation routes or temporary storage facilities based on logistics and federal regulations, which can affect transit timing.

    Delivery dates for interstate moves are provided as estimated windows, not guaranteed dates, and are dependent on routing, distance, and carrier scheduling. We regret if this was not communicated clearly and understand how unexpected delays can cause inconvenience and additional expenses.

    Regarding pricing, all quotes are estimates based on the inventory and details provided prior to pickup. If the actual shipment size, services required, or conditions differ from what was originally estimated, the carrier is required to review revised charges with the customer before proceeding. Deposits do not lock in final carrier pricing.

    Any claims involving missing or damaged items must be submitted directly to the motor carrier that handled the move, as they are responsible for inventory accuracy, handling, and documentation. While brokers cannot adjudicate claims, our customer service team can assist by providing carrier contact information and guidance on the claims process.

    We regret that your experience felt frustrating and disappointing. Customers with unresolved concerns are encouraged to contact our customer service department directly so we can review the account details and assist where possible.

Upon their arrival, they even gave me a published inventory list where I could accompany along as the movers marked their own electronic inventory list as well. My precious moment of my move was the unpacking of all my items in my new place and seeing that not one of my things were lost!! I was particularly happy that my beautiful lavender geodes were shipped perfectly from one coast to the other- not an easy task but they did it perfectly!

I can exuberantly say, he will take awesome care of you, any other way, he will step above and beyond to show that his customers are his full accountability! By the time they got in, about 1/3 of the storage was out of the unit, they went to work immediately once arrived. He knew of my circumstance. He felt disgusting about it, propose to go pick up something to eat but by this time, I was so fatigued and wanted to get it going so I denied. He showed her anxiety throughout the evening.

I was not doing well corporeally while waiting, I was also distress that the time management was not accomplished well. He was upset also - the preceding job did not reveal certain other item that they determined to add while they were already in the moving progression. He notify me that the owner, was regretful with the consequence of my move because it was substandard for his business. He was now going to join his two men to smooth a faster move, encouraging that they will get the work done as efficiently and punctually once they arrived.

    The discussion to process the move with them was extraordinary! He was on top of the listing, the move agreement and characteristic, and even getting COI within hours of our discussion, nothing but splendid!

First, I went an hour earlier of our scheduled time at 5PM on the day of the moving to get began on the removal of the stored boxes to clear the way to the fridge. I had thought we would be done by 6, or 6:30PM final and not having eaten lunch earlier, I belief I can survive until then.

    I used this Company for a move from Illinois to NC. The first estimate I received after going room to room describing what I had to Alexia was around $3600. She explained the whole process and told me someone would call me for a more factual estimate closer to my move date. She also said that I would get a call telling me when the movers would come 3 days before and another call 3 hrs before on the day of my move and a third call when they were 30 minutes away. She also told me that since the truck was already going to NC I would not be charged for fuel!

    I gave her an estimate of how many boxes, totes. Soft sided tote bags and furniture that I had in each room; as well as the contents of my storage unit at a second location. She sent me forms to sign and the estimate by email. After signing several pages I failed to notice that she only put down 20 boxes for my two bedroom apartment! My storage unit was notated as a second location. I paid $1858.00 that day; which was September 4, 2025.

    On September 29, I received a call from Suzy Alexander to go over my final estimate. After realizing they only showed 20 boxes on the original estimate I was told that I signed the documents so it was my problem more or less! That day the estimate went up and I was charged an additional $1200.00 for more boxes. I still had no idea what day the movers were actually coming; she said it would be September 30 or October 1st. Suzy Anderson also told me that the movers were military personnel that were given leave to go off base to move me!

    On September 30, only 30 minutes before the movers arrived; they called to say they were on their way!!! Of the three guys that showed up to move me, only one spoke some English; and when I inquired if they were in the military they had no idea what I was asking but Juan told me they were not in fact in the military! The lies that I had been told just kept coming!

    When Juan is going over my estimate of items I asked if they would be loading my apartment first or my storage unit? Nothing on the movers paperwork mentioned a storage unit at 2nd location!! I pulled up my estimate to show him it was clearly there. For the next hour Juan the mover, was on the phone with his boss from Illinois Movers trying to sort this out.

    By this time I am beyond livid with all of the lies that I e been told and the mistakes that this company has made on my estimates and the fact that they refuse to take any accountability for their mistakes!!! Suzy Anderson told my son that they are not responsible for what the movers told me! I did NOT hire or contact these movers; New Start Relocaters DID!!!

    I sent Suzy Anderson an email regarding a fuel charge I saw on this estimate and explained that I was told that I would not incur a fuel charge and her only response was, “I don’t know who would have told you that!” When I inquired why I was told that the movers were military when in fact they were not; she said, “what I said was that the movers have access to go on and off of the military base”. Suzy Anderson flat out lied and denied what she clearly told me!

    Finally the mover, Juan is off of the phone and proceeds to tell me they need another payment right then and there of $3546.00 before they can start loading! He estimated 1000 CF in my storage unit and tells me that if it is less than that; then the reduction will be taken off of my final payment of..$3546.00 on my delivery day. Juan also has me sign a document that asks yes or no; if there is access for an 18 wheeler at my new destination? I signed the form stating NO there is no access! I asked repeatedly if there was going to be yet another charge on delivery day and Juan assured me there would not be!! He explained that is why they have me tell them in advance that there is no access for a semi on the street! He assured me there would NOT be a shuttle charge!!!!

    After writing a check for another $3546.00 that day the movers load my items from both the apartment and my storage unit. After loading they leave me with an items estimate which they loaded. Once they are gone I noticed that they conveniently omitted to mention any CF for my storage unit; so I have no way of knowing if it was less than the 1000CF that I was charged for, and now I have no recourse!

    On October 6, I received a call from Illinois Movers saying they are in NC and asked if there was access for an 18 wheeler on my street? Once again I’m having to inform them that it was already stated on the form that, NO there was no access!!! Ina from Illinois Movers proceeds to tell me that there is a shuttle fee of $1000.00 that must be added to my final payment before delivery!!!!

    I insist that I was told by Juan, an Illinois Movers representative, there would NOT be this addition charge; but once it fell of deaf ears and I was forced to pay another $4546.00 before I could even see my goods! I explained to Ina that I had been gouged for more money several times and was tired of being ripped off and I wanted her to open the truck door so that I could see my stuff! She refused to open the truck door until I paid $4546.00 in CASH right then and there!

    So this move expense went from under $4000 to $11,150!!!!

    This New Start Relocation company is your worst nightmare! Moving is in itself, very stressful and exhausting; but having your goods held hostage by a company that is deceptive, representatives of the company taking no accountability for THEIR mistakes; and being gouged for more and more money at every turn is downright criminal in my opinion!!! Please, if you are looking for a company to move you; stay far away from New Start Relocation, based in Florida!!!

    Thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed account of your experience. We understand how stressful an interstate move can be, and we regret that your move did not meet your expectations.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker). Our role is to assist with booking, estimates, and coordination with the licensed motor carrier assigned to perform the physical pickup and delivery. The carrier is responsible for on-site assessments, loading, transportation, delivery logistics, and any accessorial charges applied at pickup or delivery.

    All estimates provided prior to a move are based on the inventory and information available at the time of booking. Customers are encouraged to carefully review all documentation for accuracy, including box counts, additional pickup locations, and any special service requirements. If the actual shipment size, services required, or site conditions differ from what was originally estimated, the motor carrier may issue a revised estimate or change order, which must be reviewed and acknowledged prior to loading.

    Regarding delivery access, shuttle services and equipment fees are determined by the carrier when a tractor-trailer cannot safely access the delivery location. These charges are assessed based on actual conditions at delivery and are disclosed within the carrier’s tariff and contract terms.

    We regret that communication during your move felt unclear and that the process was frustrating. Any concerns involving documentation, inventory accuracy, additional charges, or damage claims must be addressed directly with the motor carrier, as they are the party responsible for the handling and transportation of your household goods. However, our customer service team remains available to help provide carrier contact information and assist with next steps where appropriate.

    We take customer feedback seriously and encourage you to contact our office directly so the account can be reviewed in detail.

    A terrible bait and switch broker/middle man that hires terrible movers. Run. Rent a POD, UPack, rent a UHaul, get a local mover. They rope you in with a low-ball quote. Once they get a deposit, they change the quote/cubic feet 2 or 3 times. At your house they change the cubic feet (no way to verify) and threaten to leave, and keep your deposit unless you sign and give them your CC. They pack like gorillas. They are using an old DOT # which is illegal from a company they bought out, Eagle Moving. Their customer service is terrible.

    I asked to speak to the owner, Jeffrey Griest, and the customer service manager, Jamie F, said, I quote, "He doesn't speak to customers." Eagle Moving Group was bought out by New Start Relocation owned by Jeffrey Griest. They are illegally still using Eagle Moving Group’s DOT#3545015. Dot #3545015. It is illegal for a purchased moving company to continue using the previous owner's U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) number. A USDOT number is non-transferable and is assigned to a specific legal entity. The new company must obtain its own USDOT number to operate legally.

    I really thought that I had done my due diligence on this company. However, later I learned they are a broker. When I reached out and spoke to Nick, I was very clear that I did not want to end up like so many reviews that I have read that said at pick up there were all kinds of surprise fees. I asked lots of questions and when I spoke to other companies that quoted higher prices, I would contact Nick and he would say things like we would never use a 53-foot trailer for your son's transport. I was asked by another company about whether my son had a headboard, foot board etc. to ensure they had enough blankets.

    I called Nick back and was told they bring plenty of blankets. In the end, my quote of $2552.64 ended up doubling, including spending additional money on a truck so they could shuttle my son's items to the storage facility because his items were transported on a 53-foot trailer, and the storage facility would not allow that vehicle on their property.

    During the time that I was still trying to decide on which company to use; Nick was very responsive to my phone calls, text messages and emails. Once my son's items were picked up and I attempted to reach out to Nick to clarify the unexpected costs, and I received no response. I texted, emailed and left a voice mail message. I would not recommend this company and definitely identify whether any company is a broker but signing a contract. I would probably save more money finding the company they contracted with myself.

    This company engaged in multiple deceptive and fraudulent practices during my move. I was provided a binding estimate, but they later more than doubled without authorization and demanded additional deposits far beyond what was in the contract. I was promised a refund for the incorrect charges, but no one ever followed up despite multiple calls and emails. The subcontracted movers were extremely unprofessional and also attempted to charge for services not listed on the contract, and my belongings were effectively held hostage until I paid thousands of dollars more than originally agreed upon.

    Delivery was delayed, communication was poor, and when my items finally arrived, many were damaged or missing. No inventory list or claims process was provided, and I was pressured to sign paperwork stating everything was received in good condition, with the language intentionally obscured. This company failed to honor a binding estimate, added unauthorized fees, used coercive tactics, and has been unresponsive since the move. I do not recommend doing business with them.

    Regarding equipment size, carriers may arrive with different vehicles depending on routing, consolidation, and logistical requirements. Charges are based on the measured space or services provided, not solely the truck’s exterior dimensions.

    Absolutely unbelievable. Rudest customer service rep I’ve ever dealt with. I am exploring the option of moving my stuff from Washington DC to Texas where I have since moved. I was researching prices through ** and got contacted by Chris at New Start Relocation. The first time we spoke the quote he gave me was more than I was reasonable but still more than I am able to afford. I let him know this. And he basically laughed at me and question how I could think that. Then he called me again and I didn’t answer. I just got another text message from him.

    Thinking it was an automated message, I wrote “stop” because I realized that a move was more than I could afford and so now I’m sadly and regrettably going to have to sell all my stuff instead of moving it to where I am. Chris responded, “I don't get how people submit their information to not actually want what they submitted it for. Makes non sense.” I responded “Life has happened. You have no idea what is going on with my life to speak to me so rudely.” His response was, “lol”.

    If I could give zero stars, I would. This was hands down the worst moving experience of my life, and the blame falls squarely on New Start Relocation. From the start, their agent, Nick, promised me that they would not be hiring a third-party mover. That turned out to be a complete lie; they did hire another company, who not only broke most of my belongings but operated like complete criminals. Once I signed and handed over money, Nick disappeared completely. No returned calls, no support; just vanished after selling my life away to them.

    We were quoted for an 8-hour move with delivery in 2–5 days. Instead, it took 24 days to get our belongings. First we were told 5 days, then 14, and finally, after three and a half weeks, our things showed up. During that time, a 10-year-old and an 80-year-old were left without basic necessities. I didn’t budget for having to purchase air mattresses and frames and chairs and dishes and pet supplies. So tack on thousands of dollars more just to live!

    On the day of pickup, the cost was suddenly almost doubled, despite everything being listed in the original itemized quote. Because of this bait-and-switch, we were forced to leave behind a large amount of our belongings. Worse yet, the movers forgot to pack several items entirely, which we only realized after they had left.

    For nearly a month, we had no idea where our things were. We even offered to retrieve them ourselves after two weeks, but were told “no.” It felt like our belongings were being held hostage. To top it off, wherever it was being stored was definitely not “temperature controlled” as I had been told! Sooo many things had melted.

    Communication was nonexistent. The phones were never answered, the movers dodged responsibility, and New Start Relocation refused to step in. At pickup, I was even pressured into leaving a 5-star review under the threat that otherwise I might never see my belongings again. That is beyond unprofessional; it’s coercive and unethical.

    This entire ordeal caused tremendous stress, financial loss, and heartbreak. Had New Start Relocation been truthful about the process, costs, or the fact they would hand my move over to a shady third party, I could have made different arrangements with a reputable company. Instead, I was misled, manipulated, and abandoned. Avoid New Start Relocation at all costs. They lie, they disappear once they have your money, and the companies they hire are careless at best and predatory at worst.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We are sorry to hear that your moving experience was so stressful and that you feel disappointed with the outcome.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker). Our role is to arrange interstate transportation with licensed and insured motor carriers, and the physical pickup, handling, storage, and delivery of household goods are performed by the assigned carrier. This relationship is disclosed in the agreement provided prior to booking. We regret if this process was not clearly understood at the outset.

    Interstate moves are completed within federally regulated delivery windows based on routing, distance, and carrier scheduling. While estimated timeframes are discussed during booking to assist with planning, exact delivery dates cannot be guaranteed. We understand how disruptive delays can be, especially when essential household items are involved.

    Regarding pricing, all quotes are estimates based on the inventory and services disclosed prior to pickup. If the actual shipment size, access conditions, or required services differ at pickup, the carrier may issue a revised estimate or change order that must be acknowledged before loading proceeds. Any concerns about unexpected charges should be reviewed directly with the carrier and documented in writing.

    We take allegations of improper conduct very seriously, including any suggestion that a customer was pressured to leave a review. That is not consistent with our company standards. We encourage you to contact our customer service management team directly so the account, carrier documentation, and any damage or missing-item concerns can be formally reviewed. Claims for loss or damage must be submitted through the motor carrier’s claims process, as the carrier is responsible for handling and custody of the shipment.

    We regret that this experience did not meet your expectations and remain available to assist in directing you to the appropriate next steps for resolution.

    I wish I had read these reviews before hiring this company to move our things. Yesterday we were put in a horrible spot, as NS was scheduled to pick up in 48 hours from our address, for a move across country. We had already put down a deposit of nearly $3,000, which we will never see again, only to find out that the total bill jumped from $5,000 to $7,000, then to $17,000! When we tried to reason with them and fight them, they blamed us for last-minute rescheduling and other issues, essentially gas-lighting us and trying to make us think that we caused the price increases. We of course, immediately made attempts to cancel and schedule a U-Haul to drive cross-country, only now the company is trying to make deals. NOW they are reducing their price and trying to get our business back. These people are awful, anyone should run the other direction.

    I talked to a person named Hugo. He seemed very friendly and sincere at his job. He sent me links to research the company. I followed his links and researched some others myself. It seemed like a legit company and service. Unfortunately they informed me that the price went from 5k to 10k. I will not dispute that we had more stuff than we originally talked about. However when I told them how much belongings we had to move and informed Hugo that I probably would have more and told them I couldn't afford double and he assured me that there would be zero chance of that happening. I even talked to Hugo several times afterwards and received the same assurance.

    Three days prior to move and I receive a call from their quality assurance department going over our move. Susie then went on to tell us that we doubled our move size. I informed Hugo that we had a 4 bedroom house and we then went into detail about the items we were taking. We are not taking most of our furniture but were taking tvs. I repeatedly stressed to Hugo what we had and how much. Then Susie informed me that he only put down a few items. After asking repeatedly if the price was going to double and receiving multiple assurances that it would not, they did exactly as they said they wouldn't do. Doubled the price.

    Worst moving experience ever!!!! Initial price given and deposit paid. Move was set for a Monday, then on Friday they call and we were told price agreed upon was not right. We had to pay a second deposit or truck wouldn't show up on Monday. Put us in a corner since there was no time to find another option. Moving truck comes on Monday and I find out someone else's stuff is also on the truck. Stuck again. Nine hours later once almost done I'm told I used more boxes than paid for so it will cost me extra. Okay no problem.

    When truck is full, not all of my stuff fits. Had to leave belongings behind. Then they tell me I need to pay THOUSANDS MORE before they will leave to deliver my things. Rock meet hard place. Most people would not have been able to pay this out of the blue but thank God I had help. Now here I am at new house nine days later WITHOUT my things!

    Oh, P.S. Moving truck goes to warehouse then reloaded onto a different truck that will eventually deliver your belongings. Along with multiple chances for things to get broken. I have called multiple times trying to find out when I will get my things with ZERO help. This has been the most stressful move I've ever made and I have always done out of state moves myself before. Would have been cheaper to get a truck and just pay them to drive my things six hours. When truck gets here they also will want THOUSANDS MORE to unload the truck. Gee can't wait.

Keep in mind, we fully disclosed all our belongings and amount of boxes that would need to be moved so that there would be no surprises.

    So, moving day comes, the movers get to our residence to pick up and gave us a new estimate of close to $10k! They said they didn't realize how many boxes we had and that they would take up more space than they had originally thought.

Actual moving crew was fine. Watch out. I was duped!

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how frustrating it can be when moving costs change close to pickup, especially when you are working within a lease deadline and have limited flexibility.

    All quotes provided during the booking process—including virtual walkthroughs and follow-up calls—are estimates based on the inventory information available at the time. Prior to dispatch, accounts are reviewed again to verify shipment details, and the assigned motor carrier determines final volume and required services at pickup. If the actual shipment size or services differ from what was originally estimated, the carrier may issue revised charges that must be acknowledged before the move proceeds.

    We appreciate your acknowledgment that the moving crew was professional, and we regret that the pricing adjustments left you feeling disappointed. Feedback like yours is important and helps us improve communication and transparency throughout the quoting and verification process.

    If you would like your account reviewed further, we encourage you to contact our customer service department directly.

    New Start Relocation did the right thing when the movers didn’t show and took care of me.

    Original Review: Aug. 23, 2025

    They don’t call you, I’m supposed to have my items picked up tomorrow or the next day and no communication whatsoever as to which day it will be if at all. You can’t speak to anyone when calling in either. I am going to have lose my deposit because I don’t trust them to take my stuff as once they lose it I won't be able to get holding anyone. Lesson learned about predatory movers. I read the contract and they were in supposed to ask for 25% but made me pay almost 50%. SMH, avoid at all costs.

    The movers that were contracted to complete my move were so unprofessional, I don't know if I can summarize what a terrible experience this was. They showed up late, gouged my hardwood floors in several places (then refused to cover the repair fees), and spent 2 ½ months calling New Start Relocation to get the delivery of my furniture scheduled and only got the run around or no return calls. I finally reached out to a local news agency that has a consumer's report segment and asked them to get involved. FINALLY, after being informed they would be investigated did I get my furniture back. I had to file the cost of floor repairs with my homeowner's insurance to be reimbursed. This review isn't about trying to harm this company, but to save some other person from going through this.

    Response from New Start Relocation

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that your move was so prolonged and frustrating, and we understand how upsetting it must have been to deal with delays, lack of communication, and property damage.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker). The physical pickup, handling, transportation, and delivery of household goods are performed by the assigned motor carrier. The carrier is also responsible for on-site conduct, delivery scheduling, and any claims related to property damage or household goods.

    Interstate moves are completed within estimated delivery windows based on carrier routing and federal regulations, but we regret that your delivery was delayed far beyond what is acceptable and that you felt you were unable to obtain clear updates during that time.

    Regarding the hardwood floor damage, claims involving property damage at pickup or delivery must be submitted directly through the motor carrier’s claims process, as they are the party responsible for handling and custody of the shipment. While brokers do not adjudicate claims, our team can assist customers with obtaining the appropriate carrier contact information and documentation needed for resolution.

    We appreciate you bringing these concerns forward, as feedback like yours is taken seriously and helps reinforce the importance of accountability and communication throughout the moving process.

    Sincerely,
    Customer Service Team

    New Start Relocation is a case study in why the moving brokerage model can be a scam. They failed on every fundamental level, from initial communication to final delivery. Their agent attempted to charge an additional $1500 upon pickup for items (televisions) explicitly included in my binding estimate, a classic bait-and-switch tactic that forced me to discard my property. Following this, communication was non-existent. Their chosen representative, "Jasmine," was unresponsive for weeks, and the company later denied all prior contact with her, attempting to deflect responsibility.

    The most egregious failure is that New Start Relocation, an FMCSA-certified company, hired Spartan Van Lines as the carrier, knowing full well that this company operates with a history of unprofessionalism. This shows a complete disregard for consumer protection. The entire move experienced catastrophic delays, taking over a month for a standard interstate delivery.

    To top it all off, after New Start's repeated written guarantees that my final balance was $0 due to their failures, their chosen carrier still attempted to illegally demand $527 at delivery. It took an act of Congress and a direct ultimatum to get them to honor their own written commitment. This company is not a partner in your move; they are a liability. Avoid at all costs.

    Response from New Start Relocation

    Thank you for sharing your concerns. We understand that a delayed or disputed moving experience can be extremely frustrating, and we take feedback of this nature seriously.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker) authorized by the FMCSA. Our role is to arrange interstate transportation with licensed motor carriers. The motor carrier is responsible for the physical pickup, inventory verification, handling, transit scheduling, and delivery of household goods, as well as any carrier-assessed charges reviewed at pickup or delivery.

    All estimates are prepared based on the inventory and service details provided prior to dispatch. If the carrier determines at pickup that the shipment size, item count, or services required differ from what was originally estimated, they may present a revised estimate or change order that must be acknowledged prior to loading. Any billing disputes or delivery balance questions must be documented and addressed through the appropriate carrier and contractual resolution process.

    We regret that you experienced communication concerns during your move. Our company does not condone unresponsiveness or improper conduct, and any allegations of misrepresentation or unauthorized charges are reviewed seriously when brought to management’s attention.

    We encourage you to contact our customer service management team directly so your account documentation, carrier paperwork, and any written commitments can be reviewed in full. While we cannot litigate disputes in a public forum, we remain available to assist with directing customers toward the proper resolution channels.

    New Start Relocation has deceptive pricing lacking transparency. I arranged a move from Williamsburg, VA, to Rockford, IL, and another move from Williamsburg to Ellicott City, MD. The "binding estimates" were $3000 and $2740, respectively, but the final bills were $6704 and $4630. New Start has very pleasant smooth-talking brokers who follow a sleazy unethical script. My broker claimed he would be present at pickup, which was a lie--pickup is by an assigned carrier. He made a very reasonable sounding promise that the estimate could go up or down, but that too was a lie: he knew the price would go up, by about double. He disingenuously showed personal care by giving me his cell phone number, but when I called back, my call was automatically forwarded to the front office.

    Shortly before the move (too late to make alternate plans), the broker called to verify the moving list. Unless you know the precise list of items, with dimensions and cubic feet, you will end up being hit with surcharges, even if the list does not substantially change from the initial estimate. On the day of the move I learned that there were additional charges: $300 fuel surcharge, $400 bulk fee (for a queen bedframe and mattress), and $480 materials (which you purchase at Home Depot for a fraction of that price).

    Once I signed the contract with the broker, I was in the hands of the assigned carrier, when New Start was unhelpful. There was miscommunication and confusion between New Start and the carrier over the basic plan (two separate moves, each with two delivery stops). Only the evening before delivery did the carrier inform me of the date and time of the delivery. Although we were not charged extra delivery fees, be aware that there is a potential also to pay extra delivery fees for extra stair steps, no elevator, long walk to truck.

    On the positive side, the broker was very accommodating to meet my schedule for pickup and delivery (although the carrier followed through, there was some uncertainty about when the carrier would actually deliver). Also, the carrier (Home and Office Movers) packed and unpacked carefully. Nothing was lost or broken.

    My advice: Try to find a company you can trust. Know your moving list in detail, with dimensions and cubic feet. Ask many questions about possible extra fees. Be aware that the broker is motivated to get you to sign an unrealistic low-ball estimate, after which you will be in the hands of an assigned carrier. My main issue is lack of honest transparent pricing.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how upsetting it can be when a moving experience does not go as expected, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify several important points.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator/broker, not the motor carrier performing the physical move. While we provide estimates based on the information available at the time of booking—including inventory reviews and follow-up confirmations—all pricing is ultimately determined by the actual volume and services required at pickup, which are assessed by the assigned carrier on site.

    Estimates, including those labeled as binding, are based on the inventory list and scope of services provided prior to the move. If the actual shipment size, item count, or required services exceed what was listed or verified, carriers are legally required to revise pricing accordingly and review those changes with the customer before proceeding.

    Brokers are not present at pickup, as disclosed in the agreement, and coordination is handled between the customer and the assigned carrier at that stage. While we strive to provide accurate guidance and responsive communication throughout the process, final charges are based on the carrier’s physical assessment at pickup.

    We regret that this experience did not meet your expectations and encourage you to contact our customer service department directly so we can review your account in detail and address any remaining concerns.

    DO NOT USE!! This company is a joke from the beginning. Sales guy “Scott” quoted me and I thought it sounded too good. Well after looking at the quote again it said “300 cf”. I knew for a fact I had more than that and asked him to put more. He said “no way you have more than that, and if you do I’ll pay for it”. Sure enough, movers show up and are charging me more because I exceed 300cf.

    Fast forward… I am still sitting at home with no furniture from when they picked up over a month ago. I get married in 2 weeks and they have my suit. So not only am I having to buy furniture cause of this delay, I have to go get a new suit fo my wedding. I figured they would show up before 6-8 weeks. Now I’m assuming they will decide to show up while I’m at my wedding and no one will be there to accept my stuff. Probably just going to get an attorney involved at this point. I have called weekly and get the same answer “we’re waiting on a response from the company who picked your order up”. DO NOT USE!! This company should not be in business or responsible for other people’s belongings.

    DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! This was the worst experience that I have every had hands down. I was quoted an extremely low price of $3800 and paid a non-refundable deposit. Two days before the move the price increased to $15,000 when I provided a very detailed and itemized list of my items. I was told that I would find out my delivery date when my items were picked up. At that time I was told it could take up to 21 days to get my things and so I had to pay an additional $2,000 to receive my items by the date I had originally requested. When the driver looked at my items, even though I had provided an itemized list to the estimator he increased my price an additional $4,000. I had to pay this additional cost even though it was based on his visual estimate or he would not load my items. I was also not told that my items would be transferred a total of 4 times between storages and trucks.

    When they were coming to deliver I was told a semi truck could not access my street and I was charged another $2300 for them to transfer it to another truck. I lived in a very regular neighborhood and that same morning another semi drove down my street (which I took pictures of). When my items arrived the boxes were crushed and broken open beyond belief, most of my furniture was damaged and several items including my exercise bike and large wicker patio chair were missing and my mattresses were filthy even though they were bagged. My items looked like they had been thrown around. They did not assist with putting any of the furniture back together that they had disassembled. The total charge for my move ended up being $23,000 and I only had 4 pieces of actual furniture.

    I will absolutely never use this company nor recommend them to anyone. Completely unorganized, upcharged upon arrival. They disassembled EVERYTHING. Even took the legs off the TVs, small nightstands, anything they could take apart, they did. So I asked them if the delivery person was going to reassemble everything and they said yes. Oscar told me to let the driver know my delivery date (which was next day) and they would handle it. Turns out the people picking my stuff up were not the ones dropping it off. They told me it would be 3-5 days before my items would arrive.

    I called customer service 2 days later for an update, and they said it could take 2-10 days and had no estimated time of arrival. 2 days after that I called again, they said it could take 2-14 days, and were waiting on driver confirmation. 4 days later they told me they were still waiting on driver confirmation and still had no delivery date. The next day, customer service said the driver should be calling me in 1-2 days with a 1-2 day window of delivery. I got a call the following day and the driver said he was 4 hours away and arriving at 10pm. He was by himself when he arrived so he had no help, I confirmed the reassemble part and he said he will do what he can. I helped him unload my stuff, some items broken to pieces, but he was very apologetic for the way everyone else handled the situation, and helped me put my most important items back together. He was the only positive in the whole experience.

    This company is a complete shit show, and the 3 different departments lack communication and efficiency in their processes and planning. Something that was supposed to be stress free for my 600 mile move has been the cause of ALL my stress during this relocation. I can't say enough, how much I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM.

    New Start Relocation (Broker) farmed my move out to East West Movers LLC out of NJ. They packed my things, then moved my shipment to a warehouse where they unpacked it, then repacked it, and another mover brought it to my home. The head mover, who picked up my shipment at my home came with two youth packers (they spoke Arabic). The head guy was verbally abusive about the total cost of the move (that increased $4,000 plus). Before they were ready to leave, I quickly searched the home, the left an entire storage closet full of storage bins. They packed it after I informed them that they needed to load it.

    Time passed with no contact. When I asked East West Movers when they were delivering my shipment, they replied that they did not know. It was only after I contacted New Start Relocation, that the mover called me and told me they were reloading my shipment as he was speaking. He also instructed me to leave the money orders blank. BIG RED FLAG.

    I put the name that is on the Interstate Bill of Lading: East West Movers LLC. A few days later, a different mover (with a CA phone number) called me the day before arrival. He became contentious about the money orders, at which point I told him to stop gaslighting me that the money orders were already prepared. I'll be doing a complete write-up about unethical business practices and any damage to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for interstate moves, the Better Business Bureau (BBB). People who pay for professional services should get professional services. Threats like: "That may not end well for you." And other contentious behaviors are not appropriate.

    My experience with New start relocation was both highly frustrating and stressful. The initial estimate provided was grossly miscalculated and appeared to just be in order to make the sale. I had stated that the amount that I knew I would be able to and the rep then tried to match this and offered a discount to a large group of colleagues all having to move at the same time. This quickly doubled in price at day of pick up with no help from customer service to maintain the discounts that were offered. The items while advertised as arriving in 1-2 weeks then did not arrive for a month and sat in a NJ warehouse until I called and complained that I knew they have not moved because of an air tag in one of the boxes. Then once the items were finally delivered three items were thrown into a separate individuals pile by mistake and the only reason I got these back is that that person happen to be one of my colleagues.

    Furthermore and more importantly at least one item had actually been opened (a box with a latched top containing rare mineral specimens and fossils). I do not know if this in some way spilled or was otherwise open but items in it including a recent purchased rare fossil were lost/stolen. There was also damage to several other items. Others in my group had similar issues with some getting charged 3x cost even. I highly recommend going with another group for your moving needs to avoid the frustration and property loss issues I and others experienced.

    Please do not do any business with this company. Bait-and-switch tactics are used to lock you into spending thousands of dollars. New Start Relocation is a broker and does not actually assist with moving. They bind you in a contract with estimated quotes (more than one), each of which may cost between $2,000 and $3,000. On the moving date, actual movers will arrive and provide their quote, which may differ from the quote given during the video walkthrough with Quality Assurance.

    I spent $ 5,200.38 on estimated quotes via phone/video and was going to be charged $ 8,011.28 when the movers arrived. Yes, totaling over $13,000. I did not go through with this arrangement due to an underestimation by New Start Relocation, but I used U-PACK, which would have saved me a significant amount of money. By using U-Pack, I spent $1189.00. Of course, their representatives become angry and aggressive when asked to speak with a higher authority. A Class Action Lawsuit will come in time.

The price went up $500 because of a few extra things Mom had forgotten. When I told the guy I was moving for a job with NASA, he started gushing about "Ancient Aliens." I've never actually seen it, but y'all know it's got a bit of a bit of a reputation. And that probably should have been what prompted me to cancel. But this guy also assured me he'd take care of any problems I had day-of, so I was paying more attention to that reassurance than anything else, I guess.

    There was a call for a final inventory a few days before pickup, which was with some other lady. I added some boxes but took off some furniture, and somehow it was still going to be an extra $500 from what I signed off on. Mind you this is now $1000 more than what they told Mom originally. I almost backed out then. But instead I asked what would happen if they took off the 4 bookshelves on my inventory. I told both of these people multiple times that the shelves fold flat. We're talking maybe 3 inches deep, 2-3 feet wide, 4 feet tall. Apparently, there's nothing like that in their system because taking the bookshelves off the list decreased the volume by 70 cubic feet. There's no way that's how big these are (I'm thinking it's closer to 10 cubic feet). Anyway, that took off the extra $500 this lady was saying would be added. Okay, crisis averted. I guess.

    Every person both my mom and I talked to, we asked multiple times if they were really going to be able to pick up, drive down, and deliver same day. No one said flat out no...They mostly ignored the question. That probably should have been another red flag. Cut to day-of. The guy with the truck shows up and starts acting like I'm crazy for thinking they'd be delivering everything that day. He's going on about how it's the end of the month, and everyone is moving, and they're too busy to change the day's plan, yada yada yada. So I'm trying to pin him down about when it WILL be delivered. And he's starts with maybe tomorrow. And then the longer he talks, the later it is, like *maybe Friday (it was Tuesday).

    The kicker was when I went to try to find my paperwork to see what it said about delivery. And he says it doesn't matter what my paperwork says because HIS paperwork doesn't say anything about same day delivery, so that's not happening. So I go call the guy who said he'd take care of any issues. No answer. (BTW, over a week later, and he STILL has not responded to my voicemail.) At this point, visions of horror stories from Reddit are flashing across my brain about moving companies that hold your stuff hostage at the delivery end to wring more money out of you. So I told him to leave. Without my stuff. He's all like, 'But you'll lose this big deposit you already paid.' And I tell him I know, and I don't care. Dad shows the guy to the door, and I take a few minutes to look like this:😭.

    While I'm trying to pull it back together, the guy comes *back to the door to say his boss said they can deliver it tomorrow. All I can do is look at him like he's lost his ever-loving mind and shake my head no. I was lucky enough to have some flexibility in my move schedule and sorted out another solution. (It involved the only U-Haul available in my small town at 15 minutes notice, a dolly, the random guy from Craigslist the movers had hired to help for the morning, and my teenage nephew and two of his football player friends at the pick up end and Two Men and a Truck at the other a few days later.)

    Then came the phone call that the billing department was trying to get in touch with me about my deposit. They had the gall to offer hush money (i.e. a portion of my deposit back) in exchange for my agreement to "not disparage New Start Relocation, or otherwise take any action which could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the professional online reputation of the company, officers, agents or employees on any online review websites."

    Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed experience. We understand how frustrating and stressful it can be when expectations around pricing, timing, and communication do not align during a move.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker). Our role is to assist with estimates and coordination, while the physical pickup, transportation, and delivery are performed by the assigned motor carrier. Delivery timelines discussed during booking are estimates, not guarantees, and are subject to carrier routing, scheduling, and availability—particularly during peak moving periods. We regret if this distinction was not clearly communicated.

    All pricing provided prior to dispatch is disclosed as an estimate based on the inventory details available at the time. Inventory reviews conducted before pickup are intended to reconcile item counts and volume; adjustments may occur if changes are made to the inventory list. Customers are encouraged to review all documentation carefully before proceeding.

    Regarding deposits, cancellation and refund terms are governed by the signed agreement. In some cases, courtesy resolutions may be offered; however, New Start Relocation does not require customers to refrain from sharing their experience as a condition of doing business. We regret if any communication on this topic was misunderstood or felt inappropriate.

    We appreciate you bringing these concerns forward and understand your decision to pursue an alternative solution. Feedback like yours is reviewed internally to improve communication and expectation-setting for future customers.

    Sincerely,
    Customer Service Team

    I booked my move from Los Angeles, CA to Katy, TX on July 21st and sales agent name is Scott. Few issues with this broker.

    1. There are no updates about pick up dates and delivery dates, till you call them and ask about the updates. And don't trust the timelines they provide, it changes.

    2. I clearly mentioned to Sales representative, I have stairs at Katy apartment and my apartment is at second floor and he mentioned that there won't be any charges for stairs. Clearly it was not the case and delivery happened on 08/03/2025 and shipping company demanded the extra cost $160 for stairs if more than 10 steps and long distance carry if more than 60 ft (it was just walkway path and just they used trolley to carry packages). These were not communicated by broker.

    3. It seems there are terms and conditions about steps and long distance and sales person was not even giving time to read entire contract and solicitated till contract is signed & payment is completed.

    4. I called to New Start Relocation about this discrepancy and their representative are irresponsible and not even helping.

    5. If they could have informed earlier, I could have made my decision and be prepared for it. Hiding the additional fees is very bad.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your concerns and appreciate the opportunity to clarify the moving coordination process.

    New Start Relocation is a licensed moving coordinator (broker). While we assist with estimates, scheduling, and coordination, the motor carrier assigned to the move performs the physical pickup and delivery and determines final charges based on the actual conditions encountered on site.

    Regarding pickup and delivery updates, timelines provided are estimates based on carrier availability and federal transit regulations. These windows may change due to logistics, traffic, weather, and routing factors, and updates are typically confirmed once the carrier is assigned.

    With respect to stairs and long-distance carry, these charges are carrier-assessed accessorial fees that apply when conditions exceed standard thresholds (such as stair count or carry distance). These fees are outlined in the terms and conditions provided at booking and are determined by the carrier at delivery based on the actual site conditions. As brokers, we do not collect or retain these charges.

    We regret if this information did not feel clearly communicated prior to your move. Our intention is always to provide transparency and help customers prepare for potential accessorial charges so there are no surprises at delivery.

    If you would like us to review your account in more detail or assist with follow-up regarding your carrier, we encourage you to contact our customer service team directly so we can address any outstanding questions.

    Thank you again for your feedback.
