Our experience with our National Van Lines 2300-mile move was exceptional from beginning to end. It started with a home visit by Thomas of American Way. He clearly explained the moving process, helped us inventory out belongings and gave us helpful tips on effective packing. Later, he and Adam were both patient and understanding as we changed our minds several times about the details of our contract. Our National Van Lines driver, Marco, was amazing! He communicated clearly with us regardin g the schedule and paperwork details, worked extremely hard loading and unloading our possessions and related with us in a way that was positive, personable and professional. We felt that he truly got to know us and cared about us, our possessions and our move. We watched in awe as he skillfully backed that giant truck down the long and winding driveway that leads to our condo clear in the back of the complex. The gentlemen who helped him load and unload the truck were also very hard-working pr ofessional movers who knew what they were doing. Together, the team assured that our possessions arrived at our new home unscathed. While we hope never to make a cross-country move again ourselves, to anyone planning to do so, we whole-heartedly say: "Choose National!"

After reading reviews online of various moving experiences (most of them bad), we were mentally preparing for the worst. Our experience was actually great and relatively hassle-free. The pros: 1. We got a quote that was way cheaper than we anticipated and Joe assured us that there wouldn't be any hidden costs after we locked the rate in. And there weren't. 2. The movers were very nice and they packed everything up extremely well. 3. Our stuff arrived on time and everything was account f or and nothing was damaged. The cons (hence the 4 stars and not the 5): 1. The date range between when our stuff was supposed to be picked up and when it would delivered was quite wide. To be fair, they were pretty up front about this before the contract was signed. I was told that they would know more close to the date of pick up but I didn't anticipate that that meant two days before the pickup. And it took a lot of calling on my part to get this information. 2. Similarly, there was littl e clarity on when our stuff would get delivered and it took a lot of calling to get this information. Because it was an 18 hour drive to our destination, we had to make hotel reservations on the way and it got a bit dicey not knowing exactly how we should time our arrival. Because of the uncertainty, we had to keep our plans flexible. 3. The movers arrived with fewer boxes than they needed and fewer than what was indicated by National Van Lines. This wasn't the movers fault or NVL's (technicall y). NVL outsources to a middle man company (who sends the movers). The middle man company apparently didn't send enough boxes with the movers. The movers had to run to UPS to try to find more boxes and they were still short. They had to leave a few (minor) things behind which we had to carry with us. Even though this was the fault of the middle man company, NVL should have coordinated this better and been on top of it. Despite the cons, I will say that the pricing was way better than I expect ed and our stuff arrived on time and in one piece. This is more than most people can say about their moving experience. Literally, everyone I've asked says there experience was awful. All things considered, it all worked out for us so we don't have a lot of complains.

All of the people that we spoke with at NVL and it affiliates couldnt be nicer and more helpful. We had to move sooner than expected and needed to rely on friends to help as we were already out of state. Everyone at NVL was extremely helpful and wanting to make the move as stress-free as possible. However, our items arrived there were several problems. First, a wooden sculpture was never wrapped and thus arrived damaged. It is a unique piece made especially for us and is irreplaceable le. Also, there was supposed to be a specially married box with the parts to our treadmill and elliptical; however, the box was not kept separate and so we have a delay until those pieces of equipment can be put together. I was also told that several other items were not wrapped. As our house is still being renovated I will be unable to see all the items moved to our new house until the beginning of April. At that time I will have a better idea if there are other items not properly wrapped.
