I was recently in the process of moving from Ohio to Massachusetts. In searching for a company i received several estimates from moving companies and naturally EZ movers gave me the best quote. The movers are very professional and timely people but they are deceptive in giving you a low ball quote and the actual price. On the phone EZ movers gave me a very reasonable quote of about 1600 to move 550 cubic ft from my home in Ohio to Massachusetts. But when they came they jacked the price up from $1600 to $2900 with hidden cost such as labor, material, and long carry charge to deliver almost 700 cu ft. The movers were very professional and they did a good job of wrapping up the furniture and loading the truck.
This was my first experience using movers and I already paid them a deposit and my schedule wouldn't permit me to have time to shop around for another moving company. So having my back against the wall i had to comply with them and thought that there would be nothing else to worry about. When we met in Massachusetts on top of paying the $2900, i was also charged with an additional $500+ in charges with their long carry charge scam. They acted like mobsters, they held my belongings hostage and even threatened to charge me an extra $99 for every hour they waited until I could cough up the extra $500. This is was a painful experience for me and my family and I will be a debt slave for the next few years trying to pay off these exuberant charges and fees from EZ movers.
