Atlantic Relocation

I contacted Atlantic Relocation in February to move me in March from Washington to Texas. I was quoted 300 sq ft and $2,400. When the movers showed up over 2 hours late in March, they said I had 600 sq ft and a king size bed and wanted close to $5,000. I have receipts from the furniture company showing my bed is a queen. I also sold some of the large items on my inventory. I refused to pay them after several attempts at calling their office and sending emails. They left me in a serious bind. To this day, my phone calls go to voice mail and they never responded to my emails. They lied to my bank when I disputed the deposit charge. I eventually got another moving company who came, gave me a lower quote so I added some items. It was 415 sq ft for $3,400 and it was last minute due to the bind Atlantic put me in. Alot cheaper and smaller than what Atlantic was trying to charge me and said I had. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE CROOKS! TOTAL SCAMMERS!

This is either a complete scam of a company, or they are just like 95% of the moving companies out there trying to rip people off. They told me they would take an american express for deposit saying that is how i should know they are not a scam, then a few days later when they call to tell me the time the trucks would be there, they said cash or check only. So I asked to cancel...nope too late to cancel and they keep my deposit. They completely undersold me on how much it was going to cost anyways. I walked through the house and sent pictures and they said it would take about 1400 sqft so thats what the quote was for. When I had a real moving company come and load the truck it ended up taking about 2200 sqft of space. So the quote meant nothing. Also, the guy on the phone said they were a 7 year old company, his boss said they were 2-3 years old. The website was registered about 5-6 months ago. The 'manager' told me that he clearly told me over the phone they didnt take credit card for the pickup after he listened to the recording. I wasn't told I was being recorded when he called me and he wouldnt send me the recording either because he definitely did not say that. The logo is stolen off another website that was around 5+ years ago. The address for the company is a completely different moving company in which I called and they have never heard of this company. This company created a name that sounds very similar to a large real one 'Atlantic Relocation Systems' to sound more legit. This company does not claim themselves on yelp because they say it isn't legit.

They may be a moving company, but they will try and scam you for extra money along the way. They will certainly up charge you from your quote, and you will probably be lucky to get all of your things delivered to you with the way they run the 'company'. Just save yourself a headache and pick one of the large ones.

My experience with Atlantic Relocation was fantastic. Janice provided excellent service in sales. The driver was punctual and careful with my belongings. Highly recommend

Atlantic Relocation has assigned Mr Miller to my account. I realize not all employees are as good as others and do make mistakes. Mr Miller has assured me they are working with employees to offer better quotes and honor those quotes. Mr Miller has resolved my concerns.

I received a quote based on an inventory list and pictures I sent them. I received a call 2 days before the move and they increased the price by $1500. Use at your own risk.
