Mayflower

Terrible! Avoid as it will cost you!!!! We called them before Memorial Day 2021 to have someone come give an estimate for a move the week of June 20th. David ** came out 2 weeks later and gave us a quote. A bit pricey stating it was more because it was a last minute booking. Well - if he would have come out 2 weeks prior when we called - it would not have been "last minute". I ultimately decided to go with him because he said our items would be tag and scanned so we could be sure what left our house arrived to our new location. That item tracking was available. LIE.... He also said all employees had background checks.... LIE. He said our move would be treated as white glove. That there would be floor covering to avoid scratches and avoid damage. LIE.

From the very start my driver was very annoyed to be in my presence. The two other gentleman helping him out were about an hour late. Even the moving coordinators before the move were incredibly unorganized and never followed up or called when they said that they would. Even in front of us they were completely careless with her things and when we got to our location across the country many valuable items were completely destroyed.

Our move was an unmitigated disaster as a result of mishandling, poor communication and horrendous customer service. It’s critical however to understand the impact of this delay. The move was to relocate my 92-year-old mother from Southern California to the state of Washington. Due to health and other serious concerns, it was important the move proceed smoothly. For that reason, we made it clear from the first conversation that the furniture must be delivered on Thursday 5/13. With that requirement, Coast Transfer and Mayflower selected the furniture pick up date of 4/30.

We used Mayflower for our long distance move from Eastern Nebraska to Northwestern Colorado. We should have just hauled it ourselves. Much of our belongings were damaged, destroyed, or disrespected. The movers answer to my concerns about how they unloaded the truck was, "It's okay; we're insured." But it's not okay. I hired someone I thought was reputable because I wanted most of my items to make it across the Rockies. I have never moved a long distance before, and I never had any company as horrible as this one.

We moved from Ca to Tx. The driver was good with communication and everything. Some of the workers were good w/ carrying and even assembling the furniture. However, the main issue was the very last employee/aka worker who left the house after exiting the bathroom; he literally left crap in the sink. I am guessing he felt we weren’t going to tip him and his crew since I couldn’t find my husband at the exact moment they were expecting their tip. Though, they didn’t realize he was outside and had given it to one of the other lead crew members. I have never in my life been so disgusted with how unprofessional and absolutely inhuman someone can be, but what do you expect when you hire animals. For the sake of the company, invest in better people, or do background checks. For one, I am investing in better surveillance.

Leon helped move my grandparents from their home in Florida to their condo. Leon then moved extra things from my grandparents new condo and home up to Chicago and Wisconsin to my family; my parents and uncle and my husband and I. I was present for the drop off for my parents and my own house. Leon held a presence of efficiency, durability, and trust.

We just completed our move from IL to SC. We decided to use Mayflower Moving Company and their local IL affiliate Blackhawk Moving & Storage. The Mayflower driver Leon ** (Driver #**) did an outstanding job. He was pleasant, hard working, efficient, careful and on time. The same is true for the local helpers on both sides. The results was zero damages and a happy customer.

We moved from California to Florida, but we have had serious problems in the delivery in FL. They stated the Semi would not fit the delivery target, even though the opposite was clearly proven before. They moved all to two smaller trucks. This took them till 1 PM to show up, and at that point workers were hungry and tired. A lot of thing were broken and they did not have time at the end of the day to assemble the tables. Furthermore, they charged $198 additional charges without any explanations.

Do not let Mayflower movers in your home. Moved from MI to PA in Nov 2020. They ruined my washer and dryer, lost boxes of parts to put yard and bedroom furniture back together, two ladders and a dolly, lost remotes and cords to tv and computers, deep scratched loads of furniture plus delivered things that did not belong to me.

I moved in June 2016, the price was great. They showed up on time, packed my items carefully, used appropriate packing and moving materials. They were friendly, courteous and most importantly professional.

We moved out of our house in Omaha in March this year, Mayflower did a pretty good job of packing and emptying our house. Sadly, they packed away a few items that we did not want packed and by the time we noticed, it was too late to recover them. We bought a house in Florida and gave them almost 8 weeks notice to have our belongings shipped to us. There were numerous delays, some Covid related, but some were down to a lack of communication at Mayflower and an inability to follow through on promises.

I heard good things about them. They are dependable, are always on time. They are considerate. They are helpful. They are careful with your things. They are kind and considerate. They are dependable and their prices are fair.

After extended conversations about specific dates for transport and move in these were not made. After calling the helpline it was explained to me that target dates are considered met if it is within a week. So I had no recourse. If that is the law it should be disclosed upfront.

The Mayflower Company deals on water supply that is, they supply bottled water in packs to individual homes on demand and it was indeed a very essential commodity that people can not do without. Mayflower as a company was doing so well such that I hardly patronise other companies alike. Their services were quite efficient and people do patronise them a lot coupled with the fact that the products of the company is well purified and drinkable.

Lady on the phone was very helpful, very nice, found me a really low price, the movers packed all my belongings up, shipped them, nothing was broken. Everything was in tip top shape, they unpacked everything and put everything in the correct places.

They did a great job! I was very pleased with the time & delivery of my furniture and all the rest of the zillion boxes of things! The men that unloaded the truck were very good at putting the boxes where I wanted them. It made unpacking so much easier.

Used the Mayflower movers in Bellingham a few years back. Great customer service and they were very careful with moving our antique piano at our Pioneer Park in Ferndale. It was heavy but everything went smooth... whew.

It has been a while but I remember them being very professional and friendly. They took great care with my possessions. They were on time and finished the job with time to spare. They even wore shoe protections.

In 1988 I moved from St Petersburg, FL back to Holyoke, MA.. I arranged for Mayflower to move all of my furniture back to Holyoke. They were great. Everything arrived in perfect condition. I would recommend them to everyone.

Mayflower's prices were competitive. This is the first time I've done a major move. I didn't feel like I got jerked around or forced into anything. All of the policies were clearly explained and my contact always gave me the most economical option. They arrived on time, nothing broke en route or when they unloaded it, they practiced good covid precautions.

Run far far way - do not choose this company for your move. Choosing a moving company can be confusing and overwhelming. Let me do you a favor and eliminate Mayflower from the running. We decided to go with Mayflower, thinking that a bigger company would be more responsible for our move from SC to FL. Boy were we wrong. They violated our contract and did not fulfill our move as promised during every single step of the process. Moving is stressful enough and this company made it downright horrible and traumatizing.

Representative did estimate. Movers showed up with an almost full truck to load our 4-bedroom house. Items were clearly marked for apt or storage. Movers did not separate. Ended up in apt with no furniture for about 3 weeks - two weeks later than quoted.

Our boxes were dumped upside down on the floors. Things were crushed, spilled, and strewn everywhere in every room. Will never use or recommend again. I would have never paid for a service like this. I would have much rather have done it myself and not have our things ruined and in piles everywhere.

Mayflower was hired by my husband's company to move us from Colorado to California. The moving crew that packed our belongings stole an engagement ring and an expensive belt from me. After filing a police report the company took 8 weeks to offer me $200 on $10,000 of stolen items.

We moved from outside Indianapolis to Boston using Mayflower. The local Mayflower representative who we spoke with to obtain a quote guaranteed that the movers would take great care with our furniture, pack it into the truck, drive cross-country, unload, and re-assemble our items. We checked several reviews online, and decided to go with Mayflower. 1 - The movers were 1 hour late to pack up the truck in Indianapolis. No big deal. 2 - They did not use any care. Several items ended up being broken, scratched, dented, and otherwise damaged. They refuse to work with us to compensate for the damages.

I was in the Air Force for over 4 years which allowed them to move my belongings free. The Air Force at Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida contracted Mayflower to move my belongings to Tipton Missouri in 1965. They loaded the truck and the driver said that they would be in Tipton within Four days. We never saw our belongings again. We called Mayflower who advised that the government had contracted them and we would have to deal with them. The Air Force office in Tyndall said the Mayflower told them that our belongings were in a warehouse and was waiting for a full load. We never could find out anything else. No contacts with either Mayflower or Air Force. Sad situation! I keep thinking someone at Mayflower will care enough to look into this and deliver our stuff.

Excellent service from driver/Owner of truck and his crew. Due to circumstances he moved my complete household twice. Not a single breakage or lost item! Only problem I had was with the overall cost and the changes of the prices due to time of year. Way too expensive.

Although I used this company back in the early 70's I don't know if they have changed their practices. What I found when they came to deliver my belongings to my new home outside of Chicago they demanded payment on the spot or they would not unload the truck. I found that very upsetting as they were a couple days late to begin with. Thankfully I had the money to pay them but I was never informed that the money on the spot was a requirement.

I would advise AGAINST using this company unless you can have someone watching every move of each Mayflower packer every second. They steal, and break furniture. You can’t get compensation for the items stolen unless they are tagged! Needless to say, they did not tag and record items they were stealing. The packers are not steady employees of Mayflower, but people they hire off the street just for the job. They have no respect for your belongings. I wish I had been forewarned.

The customer service stopped the day I signed the contract. I was told by the President of the company that his driver and his truck would take to my furniture to Florida. They instead brokered out to another company in another city. Never told me this beforehand, I found out from the driver when he came to pick up my furniture. When I called they just said their drivers were busy. I have never had so much damage, boxes were not marked so I am sure they delivered all the boxes, boxes were crushed, and items missing. They put our Select Number bed together but forgot to put two clips in place, result broken frame. Two days later the driver sent the two clips. Their only response was to go online and download a claim form with the corporate office in Missouri. Do not use!
