Business ProfileforNational Van Lines, Inc.

I used National Van Lines in my cross country move and was beyond dissatisfied with their customer service, the process as a whole, and their willingness to help with problems they created. I signed a contract with a guaranteed delivery window of June 8th-June 22nd, and did not receive my items until July 12th. Furthermore, I contacted the company multiple times while waiting and was given no information and could not get my calls returned until I was able to get in touch with their director of customer service, who also eventually stopped responding. My items were dropped off at a warehouse in ******* where I was moving from on June 3rd and were not even picked up to be delivered to ************** until the 26th of June, despite the fact that I was guaranteed delivery by the 22nd. Because of the extreme delay I incurred over $700 in additional expenses for hotels, clothes, and other items that I was not aware I would need. When my items finally did arrive, the driver was extremely rude, refused to help with any assembly even though that was a part of what I paid for. Multiple items were also damaged in the move, about $450 worth of damage. When I filed a claim, as I was directed to do by customer service, they simply said that the damage was not great enough for them to do anything. While I would like to be compensated in some way for the trouble, the disrespect and poor treatment, and the horrible experience, I do understand that is highly unlikely. However, I want to warn anyone else who might make the mistake of using this company. They are over-priced, and treat their customers reprehensibly.
