seamless interstate move
I have been planning this move for a few months now. I was just waiting for my children to finish school, living in Rhode Island, our state doesn't let kids finish school until the end of June. The last week of June I finally had the opportunity to book a move. We decided to obtain the full service move package. This is my first time moving out of state and we all know that it is challenging but Safe Ship made it a nice and smooth transition. The movers arrived on time, and used an very efficient process to quickly wrap and pack all of my household items. I have moved numerous times with this being the first out of state move and booking with this shipping company made this move the easiest by far. The communication throughout the whole process is outstanding , and the movers did an amazing job. Moving can be very stressful and they really took the edge off with patiently answering my silly questions.
Terrible
Absolutely terrible. Not a single thing went right and they treated our furniture like garbage. The communication was miserable. The estimate vs actual was unclear and misrepresented. I was extremely uncomfortable throughout the move. I would looks elsewhere. Literally anywhere else could be better.
THE VERY WORST
THE WORST COMPANY EVER. Fraudulent sales tactics, horrible communication and follow through. Truly the very worst. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY they WILL RIP YOU OFF. Currently pursuing arbitration. They will promise you that everything is covered in the quote- it is not. Went from a quoted worst case of $8k to $12k day of the move. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.
STAY AWAY
We were overcharged for our move from Chicago to Florida--and the movers showed up late and only sent one guy which did most of the work while the other lollygagged the entire time and had to come back the next day. Our stuff was all packed and ready to go and all they had to do was put in the truck. Also, booked our car transport with them and still waiting for the car to be delivered which now they are saying another week --SCAM ARTISTS!!!!!
Long distance Moving with Safe Ship Moving.
The 5 star reviews on here must be fake and the reason I say this is before committing to safe ship, I worked with an agent called Miles Cook and made him aware of the disturbing reviews I had read. He assured me that its just a few disgruntled people and with every business you do get a few like that. He assured me that I was in safe hands and that he would work with me from the start of the move till I my stuff gets delivered. Like a dummy I believed him and agreed because where else was I going to get a $2.2K rate shipping my precious belongings from GA to TX. Since taking my money eagerly, the dude went MIA completely I was SOL. The movers arrived on time, super friendly fellows but shockingly the rate I had agreed on got doubled, mind you I was coming out of a 1 bedroom apartment. I tried to call Miles and their customer service and was basically told to piss off. It has been 2 weeks and I have received my stuff, the boxes are tore up. In order to get my stuff back on time and not late or deal with what others like me have dealt with, I had to blow everyone's phones up including the dispatcher called Laura Pupulin who is a third party in all this. Believe the bad reviews.
Horrible Company
SafeShip gave me a quote of $2,397. Every item listed on the quote was included in my move with not a single item more. When my move was complete, it cost me $5,445.59. SafeShip hired a 3rd party moving company out of NJ called Luxury Van Lines, who have the worst reviews I’ve ever seen. With no surprise, LVL broke my bedroom set, coffee maker, coffee table, and much more. They also held all of my possessions for over 3 weeks in NJ because “gas is expensive” and they wanted to have a full truck to make the drive. I’ve filed a claim for the broken items, but the claim company that SafeShip & LVL both use is a fraudulent company out of Arizona, that don’t cover any of the damage done by the moving company. I put my faith in SafeShip moving, and regret it 100%. Please, spend the extra money to hire a legitimate company. SafeShip should be investigated by the Florida AG and the Better Business Bureau. I will be pursuing a case with the BBB. PLEASE, do not hire this company. Save yourself the headache, the money, and the need to replace broken possessions.

Good job
Safe Ship was great! Even the company they assigned to move my things was great. I looked them up on the BBB and they had great reviews too so I couldn’t be happier with my move. Nothing was missing or broken, everyone was super helpful too so I have no complaints at all.

Good job
I’ve moved two other times in the past and the movers that Safe Ship sent me were by far the most professional of them all. They were super nice and even helped me put my mattress cover on. Being that I have a lot of art collections, I was very nervous about the long trip they were going to have; but everything came intact the next week!
Good job
My items arrived today and it was actually two days sooner than I was expecting! I'm very pleased with the service I received and would definitely recommend them to others who are looking for a great broker to book with. Quick in and out. Very friendly workers. Great experience. They are professional and go the extra mile.
I am so happy I was able to find Safe Ship.
They were very straightforward about all the costs with me and everything was done in a timely manner. I was nervous about my art pieces I had that have been in my family for years but the movers had amazing attention to detail and everything arrived in perfect condition.
