Smooth and Reliable Move

My experience with Optimum Van Lines has been smooth and reliable from the start to the end of the move. They provided a quote that is easy to understand, good communication throughout the process, and the moving crew arrived on time. Everything went well with the move.

Quick load and unload

The crew packed up our two bedroom condo in under three hours. They used blankets on all the wood furniture and nothing got scratched on the way to Texas.

Careful with fragile stuff

We had a lot of glassware and antique lamps that needed custom crating. The packing crew took their time and wrapped everything really well. One wardrobe box got slightly crushed at the bottom during the drive. Luckily it was just clothes inside so no harm done. Would hire them again for a cross country move.

Needed to change my move date by two…

Needed to change my move date by two days because of a lease issue. Sent a text to the main number expecting a hassle, but they just shifted it in their system right away. The crew that unloaded my boxes in Florida was polite and fast.

Revised- From communication to over a week delay…Total Scam!

…. In response to this negative (originally 1 star) review, Optimum did reach out to fully hear my case and did what they could as far as a partial refund of my deposit. More importantly they investigated the claims of the third party carrier and acknowledged the bad practice of ABC Moving and copied me on a formal termination of their contract with that third party carrier. I feel heard and Optimum itself did what they could and gave me resources to do any further follow up I might want to pursue against that carrier. Customer service after the fact indeed improved my opinion of Optimum.

Original Review: communication to over a week delay in delivery, they were just awful. Do not depend on their estimate - the individual driving companies they hire can charge whatever they want above that and Optimum did nothing to review the charges or argue on my behalf that the charges were in excess. They also did nothing to compensate for the dragged out delay of getting my things and many times told me it was because they could not get a hold of the carrier (so they had no clue where my belongings were). Do yourself a favor and skip this company. Total scam!

Reply from Optimum van lines

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. What you described — especially the delay, difficulty reaching the carrier, and concerns about additional charges — is not the level of service we aim to provide.

We understand how stressful it is to be without your belongings and to feel uncertain about timing or final costs. While delivery timelines and certain charges can be influenced by the independent carriers assigned to a shipment, that does not lessen our responsibility to communicate clearly and advocate for our customers. It’s clear from your review that we fell short in both communication and support, and for that we sincerely apologize.

We would appreciate the opportunity to review your file in detail, including the additional charges and the delivery delay, to determine what happened and whether anything further can be done to address your concerns. Please reach out to us directly at (888) 343-0767 with your job number so we can escalate this to management right away.

Honest Pricing and Excellent Communication

What stood out most to me was how straightforward everything was. Optimum Van Lines provided a fair quote with no hidden fees, and they kept me updated throughout the process. The movers arrived on time, packed everything securely, and delivered as promised. It felt organized and stress-free from beginning to end.

Be cautious, end of paying double. Don't believe their words.

They are cheaters. They are middle man and initially they will ask very very less price to attract you and give you good discounts. Never fall in the trap. They will ask advance of $360 which is completely their money and the quote they provide as per your moving item is completely fake. Actual charge will be decided on the last moment and final day of moving. When the truck driver will come he will tell you double the price what was discussed even though you have less item what ever discussed. He will start to negotiate. The worst part is you have paid $370 dollar just to get the truck driver details. The actual price decider is the person who comes with truck. If you call this company they will simply say the price is as per the moving items and if you ask them what about my quote and all my items are within the quote then they will say that was approximate. Even the person will be there they will say no is mot in office today. Just imagine the way these people are cheating. The truck driver will start convincing you that you paid $360 to get my number which is a good price. In my case my total prices was decided $1390 but I paid $2600 with missing of one box which was worth of $250 and broken furniture. All these happened due to last moment negotiation with the driver. This what is their business model they will talk very nicely till last 1hr of your move the real game starts when the driver will come. They new in last moment customer wont have options they have give money whatever is asked. This is the business model what they follows. I had very very bad experience. The person who I negotiated with he picked my call when I mention that truck driver is asking kore money he disconnected the call and next time he wont pick your call and the other person from the same company will he is not in office today. Just imagine if you have lease and you are moving on the last day and someone will asked you double the price then what are the options left. Be cautious before taking their service.

Reply from Optimum van lines

We’re very sorry to read about your experience and the frustration you described. We take feedback like this seriously, especially when it involves concerns about pricing, deposits, or damages.

At this time, we are unable to locate your name, move details, or the deposit amounts mentioned in our system. We also have no record of a $360–$370 deposit matching the situation you described. Because of that, we’re concerned there may be a misunderstanding or that this review may not be related to our company.

For clarity, our quotes are based strictly on the inventory and services requested. If a price changes on moving day, it is typically due to additional items, extra packing services, long carries, stairs, shuttle requirements, or other services added that were not included in the original estimate. We do not support or condone last-minute price manipulation, and any such situation would be taken very seriously by our management team.

We are absolutely willing to make things right if you are a customer of ours. Please contact us directly at (888) 343-0767 with your full name, move date, and contract or reference number so we can immediately investigate and resolve this matter.

If this review was posted in error or intended for another company, we kindly ask that it be updated accordingly.

We look forward to speaking with you and resolving this promptly.
