This was the first time my move wasn’t stressful. My movers showed up on time and were very helpful and professional. They wrapped all my furniture. They were very careful. I was surprised how fast they worked. The job was finish in two hours. I recommend Safe Ship Moving Service to anyone who wants a stress free move. Finally we went over my list of items and placed them on the moving truck. Now all I have to do is wait for my delivery date. They Have Five Stars.

Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. They made moving fun! Ashley from customer care was extremely helpful and friendly as well. Of course we were excited to move into our new home, but the moving of our belongings not so much. That can be stressful, to say the least. So we decide to look into a moving company. Safe Ship Movers was an easy decision to make. After one simple phone call we were off and running! They took care of everything! Completely satisfied with our service!

We’ve always been hesitant to use moving companies because of horror stories about scams, hidden fees, and honestly just trusting strangers with our entire lives packed into one truck. Because of that, we’ve always moved ourselves with a U-Haul. That changed when we got an accurate quote from Elizabeth at Safe Ship Moving. The price was nearly the same as moving ourselves, and after speaking with her, we felt confident enough to take the leap.. and I’m SO glad we did.
Elizabeth was incredibly kind and patient, helping us accurately count our items and answering every question I had. She could tell I was nervous and took the time to reassure me that Safe Ship is legitimate and trustworthy. From start to finish, the entire moving process was a breeze and far easier than packing and driving a long haul U-Haul ourselves.
Now let me talk about the movers.. Andrei and Ellis.. because they were AMAZING. These guys were absolute machines. They wrapped and protected our belongings better than we ever could have, carried heavy furniture and boxes up and down two flights of stairs at over 6,000 feet altitude, never once complained, and never took a break. On top of that, they were incredibly friendly, professional, and communicative. They treated our belongings like they were their own, and after meeting them, I immediately knew we had made the right choice.
And the great experience didn’t stop there. Luis ** and Jake ** followed up with us, answered all of our questions, and were incredibly helpful throughout the process. We even had a delivery date hiccup on our end, and they accommodated our delayed delivery without issue, making sure everything stayed on track. During what could have been a very stressful week, they gave me total peace of mind.
As a young working mom, my plate is always full and my brain is constantly running a mile a minute. Safe Ship truly took the stress and burden of moving off my shoulders. You can tell this company has an amazing, family oriented team of real people who genuinely care about their customers. We were so impressed that we’re already referring Safe Ship to my in-laws, who will be moving across the country in a few months. Safe Ship Moving team, thank you so much! If you’re hesitant about choosing a moving company like we were, take it from me.. (a stressed out working mom with Karen-like tendencies, on a tight budget LOL) go with Safe Ship. They are affordable, trustworthy, and absolutely worth it. THANK YOU SAFE SHIP!

My experience is that the sales people lowball the quote in order to get your business. This happened to me. The salesperson quoted me around $5000 for the move. I then got rid of about half my stuff and the final quote was $8000. When I asked how that was possible I wasn’t provided a good answer. The salesperson also led me to believe that I would likely get my things within two weeks. He did say that he couldn’t guarantee it but he stated at several times that I would probably get my items in two weeks. It’s been over three weeks and I still don’t have my stuff.
The moving company they connected me with also misled me. First of all, I got no information of what items they would not take in their truck. The people that came to pack my things were very difficult to communicate with because English was not their primary language. Unbeknownst to me, my belongings sat in a warehouse for over a week before they were loaded on a truck. The moving company then told me that I would be getting my things on a Saturday, Sunday or Monday. Yet by Sunday night I had not heard from the driver. So it’s been over three weeks and I don’t know where my stuff is or when I’m going to get it.

This business went through an inventory of all my items to be moved with exact measurements. They gave me a price and I paid it. They said they would be moving my items themselves and the items would not be taken out of the truck and reloaded into a different truck. Some ** guys showed up to my house with a different company name and quoted a higher price because they had picked up the contract from Safe Ship. They wanted another $2500. I didn't have a choice at that point so I paid. They said there would be insurance on all items.
4 weeks later they delivered my furniture with a lot of it missing and broken. The delivery guy demanded $1500 or he was not going to unload. He broke my washer, mirrors, terrarium, dishes, dryer. He gave me boxes that weren't mine and when I told him, he said, "Oh well they're yours now." When I got the paperwork to file a claim for the hundreds of dollars in damage, they said they will only pay 60 cents per pound of damage and only what they packed themselves. So for hundreds in damage, they will only pay a few dollars. Total they charged me over $7500 when the original quote was $2500.

Called to get a quick quote. Spent 30 min in the phone where they tried 4 times to get me to put a deposit down on a quote after I repeatedly told them I wasn’t ready to schedule yet and that I needed to talk to my spouse first. They then moved me to the Manager who ended up saying “so you wouldn’t book this right now if I said the whole cost was $100?” I said no, I need to confirm with my spouse. He hung up on me right after that. They constantly talk about being a veteran company and how they like to help military. I told him from the beginning my spouse and I are military and they kept trying to use that as a selling technique when I just needed a rough quote. If you’re not ready to book right away be prepared to waste time and get treated badly.

I'll be perfectly honest: I almost didn't stick with Safe Ship. A day or so after I signed the contract, I got cold feet. So, I called the company intent on cancelling. After an hour and a half on the phone, Joel and Grover presented a very compelling case and convinced me to give it a little more time and consideration. They even extended the cancellation window as a goodwill gesture. I decided to give them my business. But it came with the warning that any "bait and switch," "gotcha," "red flags," or other potential negatives would be met with consequences the likes of which their company had probably never experienced. They were confident that I would end up being a very satisfied customer. I wasn't sure if it was confidence or stupidity on their part, but I admired the "can do" attitude.
The vehicle transport went off without a hitch. Granted, the pick up was delayed, but I didn't mind because I wasn't in a hurry. I told the company contracted by Safe Ship that it was perfectly fine if the car arrived at its destination late. Much to my surprise, even though it was picked up two days late, the car still arrived at its destination AHEAD OF SCHEDULE!
The household move itself was ... okay. Pickup was a breeze. The crew was punctual, professional, meticulous, and friendly. They even showed up a day ahead of schedule. My box count ended up slightly higher than the estimate so I was charged a few hundred dollars more -- no big deal. But before I was charged, Safe Ship called and told me that before I'd be on the hook to pay even one more dime, they would need video and photographic proof of the overage. I found that level of integrity impressive. Don't get me wrong, I didn't mind paying the extra. It was just incredibly impressive that Safe Ship wanted to make certain everything was legit before I made the payment. Drop off wasn't so good. Mistakes were made and lessons were learned.
That said, however, Safe Ship had my back and my interests at heart. From the moment I expressed even the slightest frustration, an entire team at Safe Ship got to work assessing the situation, mediating between me and the moving company, and keeping my best interests at the forefront of every step they took. These people went to bat for me. They dotted every I and crossed every T until I was completely satisfied with the outcome.
Quite frankly, I've never had an experience quite like the one I had with Safe Ship. They exceeded my expectations. They worked tirelessly to ensure my complete satisfaction, their communication was positively remarkable, their candor was refreshing. There simply isn't enough praise that can be heaped on to this company. I don't plan to move again anytime soon, but if I did, I would go with Safe Ship again. They not only earned my business, they earned my trust and my respect. That's not easy.
Joel and Grover took a gamble when they asked me to reconsider cancelling with Safe Ship. Clearly, they knew they could please even the most difficult customer -- not just please -- exceed my expectations. I'm incredibly grateful to them and to the entire Safe Ship company for going above and beyond on my behalf. There's only one word to sum up the experience and that's, "wow." DO NOT HESITATE go with Safe Ship!

We moved from Pennsylvania to Ohio and the price quoted almost doubled by the time the move was over. They pressured me when I initially called and made promises they didn't keep. They sent a crew with a truck that was too small and were unable to get everything on their truck with no solution. We had to rent a U-Haul truck and pack the rest of our things and move them ourselves at an additional cost. They took 14 hour to pack our house and when they finally arrived at the new house another 10 hours to unload. I was extremely overcharged for the worst service I have ever received. When contacting the company they took no responsibility and offered no compensation. This was the worst experience of my entire life and they should be put out of business. They are total scammed and should be prosecuted. No one should ever use these people. They are criminals as far as I'm concerned!

I have moved cross country with Interstate movers prior and my move was good but a couple things broken. Safe ship got good reviews so I decided to go with them instead for my move from South Carolina to Denver. Huge mistake. The actual movers were nice but literally threw my stuff around and when it came time to move in, boxes were all different directions despite arrows. My furniture is dinged and scrapped and some other items broken but nothing bad enough to claim so I have to just live with it. The real awful part is the company itself and their customer service. My movers were 5 hours late getting to my location. No one texted or called to check in and no one from the company could tell me anything. I had a two week delivery window and when it started to get close to the end I contacted them. I kept being told my items “were in transit” and a driver would get back to me.
Three days later I was annoying enough that Jonathan called me. He essentially gas lighted me, changing his story saying certain days didn’t count as deliverable days (even though I specifically asked the question and wrote it down prior to the move) and then changing to say that the countdown was actually “5 days after the day I stated was first deliverable”. He ended the conversation saying that I was going to get my stuff eventually and I should just be happy I was getting it at all (meanwhile I’ve been sleeping on the floor for 3 weeks). A manager called me later that day which made me hopeful since she at least wasn’t rude but she also did nothing to get my furniture sooner and days later told me that even though they quoted me 5-14 days, legally they had 30 days to get it to me so the quote doesn’t actually matter. My stuff was about a week late, banged up and I was up charged every step of the way. Horrible company.

Forced to give one star they don’t deserve! I would NEVER in a million years recommend this company. They are crooks and don’t care about anything but getting their money. I was charged over $8000 for a 2 bedroom apartment move across the country. They scammed me out of an additional $2000 because their shady sales guy Mike “misquoted” something on my manifest, but I got screwed out of the $$ because of HIS mistake. They don’t listen and they take advantage of you when you ask them straight out for help.
Once you sign with them as the “broker” they add up charges annd misquotes, and you are stuck paying what they say, because you signed the original manifest. They say they’re affiliated with Veterans, which should be a disgrace, as if the Veterans knew the shady business they are in, they would demand to NOT be connected to this scam in any way! They told me some credits would be applied by the movers and would come off my quote, however after they got their money, no adjustments were done… leaving it up to me to fight with yet another company, who seriously had no reason to do anything because why would they take out of their money, and who in no way was going to honor what they said! The whole organization is awful!
We understand how upsetting unexpected charges and billing disputes can be, especially during a long-distance move. Pricing and adjustments are based on the signed agreement and final services performed, but your concerns about communication and expectations have been noted and reviewed internally. We appreciate you sharing your feedback.

I had an extremely distressing experience with SafeShip Moving Services and MQ Movers, and I feel obligated to share this so others can make informed decisions. While paying in cash or cashier’s check was explained upfront, it was not explained why. It only became clear after going through this experience that this requirement exists to ensure the company is paid regardless of the level or quality of service provided, as full payment was demanded before unloading and before I was allowed to inspect my belongings. There were dishonest verbal promises and misrepresentation of the delivery timeline. I was repeatedly told someone would call me with updates regarding delivery, but those calls did not happen despite continued assurances.
After waiting over 20 days for delivery, I was given just 12 hours’ notice that my items would be delivered — on Christmas Day. When the truck arrived, the carrier refused to unload anything without full payment upfront, and I was not allowed to inspect my items prior to payment. I was also not provided a copy of the contract, and an honest verbal explanation of the contract terms would have significantly impacted my decision-making.
The condition of my belongings was unacceptable:• Boxes were contaminated with mouse droppings
• Plastic totes were chewed through by mice
• My dresser mirror was broken
• Three live mice crawled out of the truck when the delivery driver opened it
The delivery driver was rude, and the unloading crew appeared to be last-minute helpers hired the day of delivery. The helpers verbally told me they had no idea what they would be doing and were simply told to show up at my home address, which raised serious safety and professionalism concerns. After posting my review, I was contacted multiple times by representatives from both SafeShip and MQ Movers asking me to remove my review, including offers of compensation to do so. SafeShip attempted to present themselves as advocating on my behalf with the carrier; however, they are the company that hired the carrier, and I was given no choice in that selection. This experience was stressful, unsanitary, and deeply unprofessional. I strongly encourage anyone considering these companies to insist on full transparency, written documentation, and contract clarity, and to proceed with extreme caution.
Your experience was not what we expect for any of our customers, and it’s clear that you were let down at multiple points. The delays, lack of updates, and the condition your belongings arrived in are all serious concerns. Being given such short notice—especially on a holiday—and feeling pressured to pay before seeing your items isn’t something we take lightly. On top of that, the state of the truck and how your items were handled raises real concerns about standards and accountability.
You trusted us with an important moment in your life, and we recognize that trust was broken. We also hear you about how you were treated when you tried to share your experience—and that’s not how this should work.
Our customer experience team is reviewing your account closely to see if we can come to a resolution that reflects how seriously we take this.

We contacted Safe Ship in September 2025 to get a quote for a coast to coast move. We didn’t have a move date, but we were pressured to sign a contract, which was first assessed at $15k. They insisted that we needed to put a deposit down to secure a spot for when we did have a move date. We did make a deposit of half the cost of the move, with a disclosure that we had 7 days to request a refund. At no time did they disclose that they were a broker and hired third party movers.
After two days I was so untrusting of the contract, I called and requested a refund of my deposit. It was obvious that they didn’t want to refund my deposit, as I was transferred to three different sales agents, each one gave me a lower quote, which I kept declining, the last quote being $10k and they would store my household goods for up to 90 days. They finally agreed to refund my deposit, but it took nearly two weeks via snail mail to get it. These are not reputable company and do mislead people like me to trust them. Luckily we contacted a direct carrier (not a broker) and received a reliable flat rate to move. Do your research before signing with any company.

**DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH SAFE SHIP***. If I could give them negative 5 stars I would. They don't even deserve 1 star. My wife and I hired safe ship moving company to move us from Tennessee to Idaho. At first they were very thorough with the list of items we have that needed to be shipped and moved with them. We were given a discount at that time to get us to do business with them as well. A few days later we get a call from another guy who magically increased our price by over $800 for the move therefore making the discount null and pointless. (One of their tactics to nickel and dime you.) Claiming that we added more items when we didn't. He said we added 7 items. (Basically 7 medium boxes that I told them in the initial conversation/quote). (How does 7 medium boxes cost an additional $800+??)
Then, the moving company showed up to load our stuff. They left trash and garbage all over our house we were vacating making us have to clean up after them (completely unprofessional and disrespectful, especially when you are paying them $6,000+ for a move). Then they failed to list all our items on the list of items we were shipping. The only communication we received during this time was about money and not about anything else. Yesterday 12/22, our household goods were delivered by this company called "Loyal moving and storage" based out of Salt lake City Utah.
These guys show up with our $5,500 Tempur Pedic mattress strapped to the backend and outside of their moving truck. (Didn't we pay you for the space in the truck??) Seeing our $5,500 mattress being treated like trash and it didn't matter was just the beginning of the $8,000 in damage and "lost" items from these people.
The started to unload our stuff only to see all the damage they created and caused to literally EVERY single piece of furniture. They unwrapped our book shelves from the movers blankets and the bookshelves were absolutely destroyed and just left sitting in our garage for us to have to deal with throwing them away. One bookshelf was completely missing the other half of the bookshelf, my sim racing cockpit is completely missing, my weed wack is missing, my wife's library chair is missing, and all the boxes were destroyed and smashed. They took apart our glass table and didn't even bother to give us the hardware for it and or tell us they did.
The delivery driver named Moussa told me that he knew about the damages yet not one person communicated this with us. Not one person told us about the missing items or damaged items until they showed up and I said something. (They would have said nothing about the damages and lost/stolen items if I didn't say something). I could have moved EVERYTHING myself with a U-Haul and flat bed for my Mustang they ALSO screwed up (scratched up windshield from the delivery driver using my wipers and said nothing about it). I could have spent $2000 to move everything myself by uhaul and everything would have been in the good/new condition our belongings were in when they picked them up initially.
These people are liars, thieves, and scum. If THIS is how you as a "veteran owned" business conduct business (especially as a veteran myself) then you shouldn't be allowed to run this company. Take extreme caution when dealing with this company as I would highly recommend and encourage you to find someone else or do it yourself. These people owe us $8000+ for lost and damaged items that total more than the amount we paid for the move. Now we have to go through some insane "claims" garbage that I'm sure they have going all the time from other peoples claims based on the lack of professionalism and care they take during your move and with your personal belongings.
This company treats your stuff and expensive items like they don't matter and just tell you to "file a claim." Telling me this is NOT a good enough resolution to the massive amount of money and damage you people caused on our belongings. This is absolutely pathetic and if we do not get refunded or compensated the amount for the lost and damaged items. We will be filling a lawsuit against this company and they will be sitting in front of a military judge very soon. I will NOT tolerate this level of disrespectful unprofessional lack of care from a company that made claims that they would take care of us and make sure our belongings got to us safely and in one piece and ALL the items got to us.
If you spent the time reading this. Do yourself a favor and go give someone else your money and business. You will NOT get professional movers as 2 of the 3 guys who delivered our stuff yesterday looked like minors and had zero experience and couldn't even pick up a heavy box. (Weak and incompetent). They didn't even want to bring our stuff inside our home either. Safe ship better make this right or they will have this veteran suing you and filling a lawsuit.
You would think that spending over $6000 to move your stuff that they would take good care of your belongings but they treat it like trash. If you want to deal with a headache and being pissed off. Then by all means use these criminals and unprofessional scum. Otherwise you would be doing yourselves a favor by choosing another moving company.

I will start out. I am a veteran, and this was my last move to reviews online. Look, great. Initial conversation pressured to sell you. The move went ahead, read reviews. Military good, I will use them, showed up my house $7000 more. Everything agreed on had to change. Movers were mad, moving from Maryland to Florida. They held my furniture and everything. And said would be in a climate-controlled atmosphere, was not did not tell me my items will be taken off. The initial truck stored, put back onto another truck and destroyed in the process. Just a big items was over $10000 to damage. Do not use these people. They are just a middleman, you cannot contact them and tell the last minute and then everything is screwed up. Let's not talk about the movers. They use Mine like I said, destroyed antique furniture. All artwork was wrinkled and they will only give you a certain amount of money, caution, caution, caution.

All seemed to be going will as I spoke to Arnold. We went through the house room by room to get a quote. He assured me that the accuracy rate of the quote is very high. I paid thousands of dollars a couple of months in advance to maximize the discounts. A week before the move, I was contacted by Kevin the “QA” rep who began prepping me for a higher quote when we went through the house again this morning 12-22-25. I contacted Arnold again who assured me that the quote was solid. When we finished going through my house today the quote literally doubled in price. Kevin said I added a lot of items to the inventory and now needed a full pack. I had boxed the vast majority to the items myself in original manufacturer boxes since I have high value media gear for a home theater.
Arnold assured me that they have the highest accuracy rate in the business. Well it appears that the accuracy was 50%. This is classic bait and switch, it is far too late in the process to get other estimates. They claim their quote is “binding” but beware, the only binding portion of the quote is that while you can’t get out of it, there is nothing binding on their part. I am confident that every time another rep looks at the quote and surveys the inventory, it will be higher and higher. I would never recommend this company to anyone. I have been totally burned.

Now that it is all done I am very happy! Not just glad that it is over but very happy with the way it went. Safe Ship provided support and coordination throughout the entire process. It was communication from Safe Ship to it subcontractor American Central Moving and the subcontractor communication with the employees on site or on the truck that made this move a success. I must admit I was a little stressed out moving my family’s heavy furniture, antiques, Art, china and glassware across a thousand miles. Communication with Safe Ship by phone or online was effective and served to set up the process in advance. Prior to the move my daughter took the Safe Ship representative through the entire house using her iPhone while the representative itemized the inventory and to project the cost. This was sent to the subcontractor for review. The subcontractor showed up prepared and ready and on time communicating their arrival time.
The team of employees on the ground projected confidence and adjusted their expertise to the various tasks and explained the process as they went. I admit that I was a little stressed out but ground team made me confident that they had the skill set to get the job done! It took a day and a half and two trucks to pack and load everything while at the same time we communicated the destination spaces were each group of items would end up. I gained confidence that this team would get the job done accurately with everything arriving in the correct location to enable us to unpack without having myself and my family having to move heavy items up and down stairs after the trucks were unloaded. The team effectively carried this out while keeping me well informed. I am highly appreciative of the on site team who managed the packing and lifting of the boxes with care and both ends of the 1000 plus mile trip!
The only issue I had was the method of payment which required me to have a cashier check to hand to the firemen at the time of delivery. However, the company was supportive when it became clear that the method was no longer viable and allowed me to wire the funds from my bank account in Chicago. At the destination end the moving team continued in the presence of my family while I remained in Chicago. I had complete confidence that they would deliver and they did a fantastic job! I highly recommend Safe Ship Moving as a team of competent individuals who know what it takes to enable a move of significant size home across more than a thousand miles. They prepared us and were in turn well prepared during the entire process. I highly recommend this company (contractor and subcontractor) for their competent and effective performance of the move and for the customer support provided throughout.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad the move went smoothly and that our team supported you every step of the way. From planning through delivery, it’s great to know communication was clear and the crew handled everything with care.

They kept our full deposit of over $3,500 and lied to our bank that we had "buyer's remorse" and that is why we cancelled our move with them. They are legally set up to operate with this business model. So much for supporting veteran owned companies.
Updated on 01/22/2026: After baiting and switching (raising our moving quote by over $3,000) less than 3 days before our move, Safe Ship lied again...saying someone from their company would be reaching out to me soon. That was over a month ago. Criminals, liars, felons and drug addicts.

DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY! I questioned the reviews they had (I found them as I was on the phone getting my original quote). They transferred me to a salesperson who gave a spiel about the reviews being only 1% and "lowered my price" only for the price TO DOUBLE after they had my non-refundable deposit. When I asked to speak to the person who promised my pricing, they said "Oh they won't talk to you, they just want the sale". My things arrived late and damaged - I took photos of how my things were tossed in and crumpled into the truck (only attached a few, but there are more). Every chance they got, they tacked on another fee. This company is a scam, they put you into duress before each new signature because you know you've already sunk thousands into using them.

Updated on 03/25/2026: This is an amendment to a previous review. I reviewed Safe Ship in Dec., 2025 to share the horrible experience I received from their consigned carrier Fabri Express. Safe Ship themselves were great to deal with. In March, I amended my review, because Ashley from Safe Ship reached out to address my complaint further, which was appreciated. I'm amending my review again. Ashley has continually been in contact with me to share her concerns and conversations with the carrier. She has negotiated an additional settlement for me in the method of payment I preferred. I honestly hope they discontinue using the carrier I was assigned. However, the follow up and customer care I was provided by Ashley and Safe Ship warrants the increase in their review.
Original Review: I used Safe Ship to move back to Maryland from NJ. Dealing with them was fine. However, the actual moving company they contracted was not. They kept hedging around with the prices. I wasn't provided written copies of inventory and invoices. They spoke broken English. Payment was expected electronically on apps I didn't have. Delivery was arranged to be on the same day, but the movers didn't know or want to do that, and charge and additional fee! I had one item broken and one missing. They disputed the claim and offered me less than $100 "in good faith." Then, they wanted to e-pay the "settlement" on the same app I don't have and we're fussy about issuing a check. Fabri Express was the contracted mover. I would never let them handle my belongings again!

Original review: Everything seemed great initially. Even got a discount so that I would book with them right away and put down a deposit. Then four days later, they called to do a very thorough inventory, which then doubled the cost of my move. I live in a small two-bedroom apartment. I was very transparent to begin with with what I had to move. So once it doubled. I would have to forfeit my deposit because you can only get a refund after three days.
The thorough interview interview happened on the fourth day. Which I was unaware they even did. They had me measuring boxes and all my furniture with a measuring tape and when I called to talk to the guy, I originally got the quote from he would not answer the phone or respond to any of my messages. He had told me small items would not affect the but they do. So my $3700 move turned into over $6000. I’m moving in 3 days and would have to sacrifice my $1500 deposit! So I had to leave a bunch of furniture behind and take off expedite shipping to get my cost down to $5000. That’s for one person in a small two-bedroom apartment not taking the couch or the kitchen table and chairs. One bedroom set and a desk.

Original Review: Dec. 8, 2025
When you’re moving long-distance, choosing the right moving company is crucial. We relocated from Delaware to North Carolina in August 2025 and hired Safe Ship because of its glowing reviews. After a thorough consultation, sharing our Zillow listing and numerous photos of our home and belongings, we got a quote that was higher than expected. We negotiated, much like at a car dealership, and settled on a price we could manage. Throughout the process, we dealt with several different representatives, each claiming to handle a specific part of the move. We eventually decided to move forward with Safe Ship, feeling good about the price and services. But just three days before pickup, another representative called to “finalize details,” which was odd since canceling within five days meant losing our deposits. That’s when we were hit with a shocking new estimate—50% higher than the original!
After several complaints to customer service, we were given a measly $1,000 refund, yet we still ended up paying 40% more than initially agreed. The move itself was grueling and exhausting, and to complicate matters, other aspects and details came into question. Pickup was paid with a certified check, while delivery had to be paid in cash—suspicious, to say the least. It seems the physical work is subcontracted to crews who are mostly untrained, except for a foreman in charge.On moving-in day, we were told the movers would arrive early afternoon. Instead, they showed up at 9:00 p.m. with a ragtag crew who unloaded our things with little care, stacking furniture, boxes, and crates haphazardly.
In retrospect, I was left extremely dissatisfied with Safe Ship’s deceptive practices, including bait-and-switch tactics. Reflecting on this experience, I have learned to approach service providers with greater caution and to scrutinize contractual terms more carefully, especially regarding pricing and communication protocols. This move has underscored the importance of transparent business practices and follow-up, which were clearly lacking in our experience with Safe Ship. WE GOT SWINDLED..... DO NOT HIRE SAFE SHIP.

I’m only changing this rating due to the fact I’m a men of my word, update on this, I did get me refunded back to my card after going back and forth, still won’t do any future business with this ship company.

DO NOT use Safe Ship. Horrible company, they lower you in with a good deal, but they just getting their hustle in, by locking in their fee, any down payment you will give them doesn't go to the actual shipper, these people are just them charging you for calling a random shipping company. Once the company gets to your house, they demand more money due to the estimate, Safe Ship does not work with the way they charge. My experience was very bad, the shipper didn't show up till late at night when they said they were going to be there between 12-4 pm. Guys show up at 7:15 pm smelling like beer and know the Safe Ship doesn't want to take responsibility or give me a REFUND for the worst delivery I have ever encountered, very unprofessional.

Brian ** from Safe Ship Moving Service did a fabulous job with my move from Nevada to North Carolina.

Moving from NY to Virginia, it was a such stressful experience, but as soon as my movers arrived, Deny’s and Java, they immediately made me feel at ease. And they were friendly, professional, helpful, and all my stress went away, as soon as they told me not to worry about anything, they will take care of everything and that they did, the packing it was so professional done, it was amazing.

Did not realize they are a Broker when I called. They conducted the inventory based on my home listing online. The quote/estimate was $2,000 more than when I went direct to other moving companies. Their site recommends you get three quotes, their sales try to push you into a contract immediately. I believe they released my phone number to other movers, as I immediately started getting texts from "Dispatchers" offering discounts on my move. Initially they were professional but the higher cost, the pushy sales, and releasing my phone number are not okay with me. I did not choose them for my move.

A very smooth pick-up process by Plymouth Line Movers, under the auspices of Safe Ship Moving. They called to schedule our pick up just as planned. The moving truck arrived on time, calling 45 min out to keep us apprised of their schedule. The two gentleman movers were extremely efficient, professional and friendly. They took great care with all our items, padding and wrapping more than expected to protect each piece. They worked together very proficiently to complete the job in a timely manner. The documentation and payment process was handled equally efficient. We were very impressed with how great the entire pick-up process went.

The worst company and experience ever! As the previous reviews have stated, no one comes out to actually survey/inspect the amount of HHG’s on hand and then lowball a 3rd party company, who in turn charges more for pick up and delivery of goods. I’ve ended up paying an additional $7000 due to their lack of integrity. For them to be “Veteran owned,” they’re scamming Veterans and their families.

I had an outstanding experience with this company from start to finish. The service was truly exceptional, and I was impressed by how smoothly everything went. The crew arrived exactly on time, which immediately showed their professionalism and respect for my schedule. From the moment they began working, it was clear that they were well-trained, organized, and committed to providing high-quality service.
What stood out most to me was how straightforward and honest the entire process was. There were absolutely no hidden fees, surprise charges, or last-minute price changes. Everything was explained clearly upfront, and the final cost matched exactly what was discussed. It’s rare to find a company that values transparency as much as this team does, and it made the experience stress-free and reassuring.
The crew worked efficiently and treated my home and belongings with care. They communicated well, answered all my questions, and made sure I was comfortable with each step of the process.

We want to preface this by saying we have moved five times in just the last ten years due to my husband's profession. We are very experienced in the process. Our communication with Safe Ship Moving Services was good until the pick up day and of course they were paid. They subcontract out the moving services, which to us is also their responsibility. You would not look favorably upon an Internist to consult an inadequate Surgeon to perform an elective surgery. They consulted Blackstone Movers from New Jersey for a Pennsylvania to South Carolina move in the first week of September in 2025. We can of course, provide all detailed documents and correspondence.
We just want to summarize our experience. The things that did not bother us were being 7 hours late, some dented and scratched furniture, broken glass to frames and furniture- which the movers secured, a few broken crystal glasses and china that were wrapped the same way and in the same box as the others. Slightly upset with broken foot off a quilt rack my dead father made and large hole in the back of my antique secretary desk. Then we have to scratch our head on how they broke a toothbrush in half on my water-pik and broke a plastic container on a retired juicer model. What we have never witnessed was the missing pieces of furniture.
We are missing the footboard off our king-size poster bed that we have had since marriage, which makes it totally unusable. In addition, we are missing an oblong stand alone full-size mirror on a frame and an antique, unique 18-drawer original sewing cabinet, which I subsequently have been unable to replicate. In addition to that, we have boxes that are not ours in our garage and we luckily returned a beautiful antique, heavy grandfather's clock to the movers, which also was not ours. We have contacted the movers several times about these issues, but to no avail. We also asked Safe Ship Moving Services to send us inventory video several times, also to no avail. We gave them two and a half months to rectify the situation. This is why we took this long to write any reviews. As directed, we filed the insurance claim and hopefully, we will get some resolution in a reasonable amount of time.

Safe Ship gives you a quote for your move, but it is meaningless. I had over $500 additional fees added at the end of my move. My Salesman, Shawn ** promised me his quote was all-inclusive and he checked out both addresses of my move. Shawn and Safe Ship can not be trusted. Shawn left notes on my account and Jeff ** called to verify my moving items. Jeff was rude and not at all concerned with backing up the comments left on my account. All Jeff cared about was getting through his call list. No one at Safe Ship seems concerned about promises made during the sale. I would not recommend Safe Ship. Go with someone that keeps their word and stands behind the customer.

The initial and follow-up contacts seemed professional. They asked a lot of questions I expected. However, the day of the move everything went downhill. The original estimate went up with the follow-up call and again at the time of pick up. This made things difficult as we had to get additional money orders before they'd load, thus our stuff sat out in the sun for hours. The mover showed up 5 hours after the time he said he'd be there and had to return to load the following day. His 3-hour loading time turned into a 7-hour nightmare.

Was the worst moving experience I have ever had. After paying 2500. Dollars, they sold my account to an out-of-state subcontractor who rescheduled 3 times. Called customer service and all they had were excuses and said there is a 48 hr window. When it exceeded the 48 hr, then it wasn't there fault. It was very apparent they were not going to own responsibility for connecting me with the movers who are with a completely different company. If I could give a negative star, I would. On top of everything, I had to cancel my Thanksgiving travel to be with the movers. Had to eat gas station food on my holiday!! Disgusting company!!!! They were gracious enough to give me 100 dollars off of 2500. I gave the insulting compensation to the the movers for a tip.
