We have identified a pattern of complaints concerning billing, customer service and damage to items. Complaints processed by the BBB claim that 1) Items are delivered damaged 2) Customers claim being over charged for time spent on moves and packing materials 3) Customers are unable to speak to company management concerning their issues.

In most cases complaints sent to the BBB have been resolved

In June, 2008 Continental Express informed the BBB that they are taking steps to try and decrease the number of complaints. They state they are 1) adding more specific information regarding packing material charges to their confirmation email. And to include prices for all packing materials to their web site. 2) Extending their training process to all field employees on the importance of exercising efficient and safe work as well as professional packing and wrapping. 3) They try to handle every phone call and letter they receive in a timely manner.

On August 6, 2009 a review was done on this company's complaints and it appears that the pattern being reported still exists.
