Business ProfileforI Love International Movers

My International Movers handled my move from *******, ** to ********, *********. From the beginning, things were difficult to coordinate with the moving specialist. Numerous calls and emails would go un-answered until I would contact other people at the company. Then it took 7.5 months for my belongings to arrive, all the while the company suddenly requiring more money than what was listed in the contract for delivery. Their moving specialist even tried to charge a university credit card that was specifically used to hold the reservation over 7 months prior. Nonetheless, here's where the real problems began: The delivery of my items. Six of the dozen or so major pieces of furniture moved were irreparably damaged. The moving company here in ********* was astounded by the lack of care the company put into packing any of the items, which included an armoire with legs sticking out of any wrapping (two of the legs were severely damaged), a dresser that was wrapped in nothing but thin cardboard and that was split almost the entire length of the dresser, paintings wrapped in nothing but tissue and cardboard, both of which were shattered, a bicycle placed in an otherwise empty cardboard box and that, as a result, had its frame bent, and a lamp placed in a box labeled 'fragile' that received no other protection and was therefore absolutely demolished. Mind you, every item I wrapped and packed in boxes myself arrived fine, including glass figurines and mugs. It was only the poorly packaged furniture items handled by My International Movers themselves that were damaged. The estimated damage, which is all photographed and documented, is ~$10,000 U.S. dollars.The end result has been the company offering me $500, far below the minimum liability insurance for 300 cubic feet of items shipped. It's almost more of an insult to offer me that low amount after what was clearly a result of their negligence. This has been one of the worst business transactions of my life.
