Worse experience EVER, and I plan on filing a Better Business Bureau complaint coupled with negative Social Media reviews on various platforms. I was scammed. I was quoted a price and signed for a price based on my items. I was told the price was guaranteed and fixed. When the movers came, they said some AI software predicted that the move would cost another $685. This was outrageous!!!! I was quote 2000 and signed for 2000. I am sue this has happened to other people. All they moved was a bedroom set and boxes. They lowballed the price to get the deal and the on the day of pickup increase the price 685 dollars!!!! Outrageous!!!! This company is scamming people, and it will be reported!!!!

The booking needs to be clearer. I estimated the best I could. My items were moved out of my house and put in storage in a 26' straight truck and was in a 10x20 storage unit. My price more than doubled because I used up square footage of the truck. It pisses me off that I give u square footage and u didn't give me an accurate price. This is what I will tell people. I feel ur schedulers scammed me and purposely gave me the low price because one my stuff. There were also items I disclosed that were not on the list. Casey and all the movers u hired were spectacular. Also when they showed up there was a timeframe delivery date for 2 weeks out from pick up. Had I known that was ur process I could have accommodated, instead u charged me for a straight delivery I believe. Ur quality assurance call should have went over all this. All he asked me is if my list of items was accurate..

Ended up being more than double the quote. Things not put in right areas. The delivery team in general was great. Your sales and operations team? Need work. I don’t need to remind your employees I am a client not a business. I pay you, you don’t pay me, so a little common courtesy and understanding is appreciated. I was talked down to by your operations leader and my contact for the contract went MIA after issues. Good luck. No good review on my end

While the final objective was achieved, same day delivery from Chicago to Wisconsin with no breakage, the process was not smooth. There was confusion between the carrier and iMoving, despite more than one attempt on my part to correct certain inaccuracies in the order.

Hard-working, very professional, good communicator. A little more pricey than other options -- however we would use them again. Highly recommended.

Elgin Moving Services Are a Click Away
Every move is different. Whether it’s a home, office, or just a few items of heavy furniture, iMoving provides a whole menu of must-have services for moving in and out of Elgin:
Long Distance Moving
There are a lot of long distance moving companies in Elgin. How do you know which one to pick? And how do you know who you can trust?
At iMoving, we've done the research for you. Before a mover joins our network, we check their safety records, their customer feedback, and their service history to make sure they're up to par. And once they join our marketplace, we check in on them to keep them on top of their game.
Local Moving
Local moving companies in Elgin usually charge per hour, per mover - and it takes about two movers per bedroom. If you're trying to score a great deal on a cross town move (without dealing with a bunch of sketchy moving companies), iMoving is here to make your life easier.
We've got a whole marketplace of over 1000 moving companies, and we make sure each one's good enough for the job by reviewing their services and their customer feedback. We also make it easy to book: Just tell us what you're hauling, and we'll provide custom quotes.
Packing Services
Did you know that you can actually hire professional packing in Elgin so you don't need to deal with all the boxes yourself? It's not just a convenient way to get your stuff ready for a move; it's also a great way to bundle your moving services with a company you can trust.
How do you find that packing company? With iMoving. We've got a whole network of professional movers, and that includes packing companies that'll come prepared with all the boxes and padding supplies you'll need to keep your stuff safe and secure.
Storage Services
Too much stuff? Not enough space? We get it. That's why iMoving offers the best storage in Elgin, and that's why we made it easier than ever to lock down your extra square footage.
The storage providers in our network offer secure, on-site storage for all your extra belongings. And just like the movers in our network, we make sure they meet our standards. Clean facilities, surveillance, and even door-to-door delivery.
Commercial Moving
You're running a business. You've got clients and customers to keep happy - not to mention an entire team of employees who need to stay focused on the task at hand. A corporate move can throw all that out the window, unless you book the best commercial movers in Elgin through iMoving.
We know every business is different. That's why we let you pick and choose the exact services you need for the exact type of company you're running. From server racks to appliances and inventory, we'll connect you with a team that'll keep it safe, and make sure youre move goes quickly and efficiently.
FAQ
Movers need to have an official Department of Transportation (DOT) number, which you should be able to find on their website. If a moving company handles long distance moves that cross state lines, they'll also need a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) number. Don't forget to check reviews and look for any insurance info they may feature on their website.
When you move to a more built-up or urban area, chances are they won't let you park an entire semi truck in front of your apartment.
Your movers will have to park the main truck at a staging area, and use a smaller box truck or van to transport your stuff to (and from) the trailer.
This is called a moving shuttle, and the inconvenience comes at a price. Blame your city council.
A Elgin move can cost you anywhere from $200 to $7900 and beyond. It all comes down to how much you’re moving, and how far you’re traveling.
Keep in mind, local movers charge per mover, per hour (with about 2 movers per room), and long distance movers charge by weight (or volume) and miles.
It's always a good idea to get insurance, and in the interest of being responsible, we're not going to tell you to skip it. However, if you're feeling risky and you're only moving a couple blocks (without anything fragile thrown in the mix), you may be able to get away with the basic coverage offered by your movers.
Some movers provide storage units, but not all of them. It’s always a good idea to shop around for a moving company that can provide all the services you’ll need. Fortunately, iMoving’s marketplace lets you see what’s on the menu with each mover, including secure storage options.
