The two members of the team I had the misfortune of encountering today are incredibly rude and unprofessional. There is no need for movers to become combative with the property manager for not being able to reserve the elevator when they are the ones who arrived four hours before their scheduled time, in the middle of another resident's elevator reservation. Also, if someone politely asks you in a neighborhood with a high crime rate not to prop the front doors open, perhaps its best not to argue and get an attitude. I will never use this company and will warn my residents at all of my residential

Everyone who works here seems fine, but as a national mover they outsource to whomever exists without any regard for quality. Kind of like a moving middle man between different Allied Movers.
The first walk through the guy under calculated how much stuff there was, so the movers didn't have enough people. Then the movers delayed by a day, combined with them not having enough movers, resulted in them rushing through, not bringing a big enough truck and running behind (literally moving during our sold home's final walk through).
Then they put it in 3rd party storage, and a different

These guys crushed it. They worked as fast as they could to get everything moved. I was impressed with their organization and professionalism. They were self aware of being respectful to neighbors and were constantly communicating with me and others around them. Hopefully I'll never have to move again, but if I do, I'm using these guys.

Western helped me in a cross-country move years ago, so were the first company I called with another move in my future. From virtual walk-thru, estimate and scheduling to the move itself, cannot say enough about the team at Western - thanks to Talia for always being my point of coordination and to Dyllon and his team (Leslie, Greg, Quran, Chauncey and Dana) for the move itself!

Consider another company! The guys packing and loading, as well as, delivery were incredible. The biggest challenge was working through the other details. The moving process across country has been a total NIGHTMARE filled with TONS of frustration. Delivery was almost a week later than anticipated, this is after speaking with the coordinator several times and her confirming that my load was close to delivery. The crew lost my mattress (three weeks later, still no mattress - claims process is difficult to navigate), my Peloton screen was missing, I found it in one of the boxes, however, the team

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.
If my review isn't enough - do more research - you will see time and time again Western Van has terrible business practices, poor customer services, and terrible shipping practices. Check out the photos for the final result.
Expect hidden fees, damaged items, lost items, poor customer service, lies, and phone games.
During our cross country move we were estimated at $2,000. At pickup time the estimate went changed:
* $1,000 for the amount of stuff we had
* $500 for living in an apartment (should have been known at time of quote)
I disappointingly acknowledged these

This moving company says all of the right things about wearing masks and social distancing on their website and during phone calls before you sign on. But all movers showed up without masks and, when i provided them, kept taking them off during packing in my house. None wore gloves as requested, and they did not have shoe coverings. I have to live in this house for the next week. Despite my repeated requests, they did not respect my health or their own. This company offers only window dressing on health protection that is belied by their poorly trained, noncompliant workers.

Stay far away from this company - Western Van packed / stored / delivered numerous damaged furniture including during a renovation:
* A brand new couch and tried to hide the broken leg by gluing it back together.
* An antique mirror that was supposed to be crated (and I was charged for a crate) but it was not
* run in an area rug
* mold on a picture frame
The list goes on. When their adjuster came to review the damage his report noted it was damaged prior to the move. Note: Western Vans came to the condo to review everything that was being stored! And then they nickel and dime you on repair

We had a great experience with Western Van and Storage. Upon relocating back from Seattle, our moving company from Sydney contracted with Western Van and they were great! Fronco and Gino were extremely sweet, helpful and ON IT! The entire truck was tucked away in our storage unit if 45 minutes!
Western Van and Storage was also extremely organized with all documentation (including the customs docs). Really great experience!

Thanks Kent (WA) Western Van & Storage. My entire shipment delivery was flawless! My shipment (4 Lift-Vans, L/Vs) were shipped from Saudi Arabia to Seattle Port in late Dec 2015. It reached Seattle around March 2016. The entire shipment was cleared and stored in climate controlled facility in Kent, WA. All without me doing anything. After 3 yrs & 9 months, I contacted Western Van (Kent, WA) to arrange for everything to be shipped to my new home in Cypress, CA. Western Van (Kent, WA) agent, Mr. George Pena, arranged for the transfer. I met him personally on August 22, 2019. He was

We had a FANTASTIC experience with Western Van - and who can really say that when it comes to a move?! An out of state one at that, too!
First of all, this was a corporate move. We were assigned Talia as our point of contact and she was very kind, kept us in the loop in a timely manner on everything we needed to know, and was very detail-oriented. I'm super health conscious and she knew the most important detail was to have non-smoking movers at pack/load (which was outsourced) and at the unload (Western Van) and she made sure that happened.
The crew that did our pack/load was outsourced

Moving is hard but Western Van and Storage makes it much easier. From the estimate to the materials drop off to the days of packing and loading, this team has been prompt, professional, careful and considerate. Special thanks to my pack and load crew (Dyllon, Q, Doug, Shawn, Dana) and the fearless driver, Richard. I feel calm watching my stuff drive off!

After George Pena provided his estimates, we were turned over to Debbie. The only time she was responsive is when she wanted a payment from us. I was extremely disappointed when she said she would call us with information on a specific date, and we did not hear from her. Over the next few days, I left messages on her voicemail. She finally called us back, and asked me why I had called. She admitted that she didn't listen to the voicemails. What kind of customer service is this? We were jacked around with delivery dates. The driver was very rude when I asked questions during the delivery

Francisco, Dave & Matt came on time for 6/8/2019 moving.
I can see the teamwork among the three of them. They seemed to enjoy each other in the work place.
Dave & Matt made friends with my Pomeranian; and this stopped her from barking.
We were impressed with their service, professionalism and positive attitude.
All of them displayed high level of courteousness & they were accommodating.
Job was completed on time even though we, the homeowners, were not quite ready for them.

Worst moving experience of my life. Their crew stole our video game consoles, several guns, (which we got no compensation for) and broke insane amounts of stuff by throwing breakables in boxes with no padding. Half our furniture was destroyed. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy. Horrible people.

The actual packers and movers were very personable and efficient. Having said that, they did break the glass side panels of my china hutch. The movers assured me the company would replace the glass. After several calls to Shelley, I still have no new glass. I even had a different set of movers come and move some heavy pieces from my house to the garage. At a minimum charge of $115 per hour. It took them 10 minutes! I think I more than paid for the new glass.
VERY DISAPPOINTED and upset that they did not honor their obligation.

When we first spoke with George and Debbie about receiving a quote for our move both were incredibly responsive. During our facetime consultation, we were thrilled when George claimed to be available at times for his customers, stating even nights and weekends he'd answer texts or calls. What he didn't say is that he would always be available until you commit to his services and your check clears. Once we put down a deposit both Debbie and George became incredibly difficult to get ahold of, which was problematic when trying to coordinate a move, not to mention nerve wrecking. During our
