Mashav has very bad customer service across all departments. They are late in delivering. I found the quote was 40% lower than the actual cost to move a 1 bedroom home. There were hidden fees and ""scams"" from the beginning. The extra mover tape and wrap came out and is their standard way of packing furniture - regular items like sofas. They are not BBB accredited. They do not fully insure your items and worse yet - their insurance is on 60 cents on the pound. They give the laborers about an hours worth of additional paperwork to do before they can begin working. They try to speed you through and sweet talk you through the contracting process so that you will miss key details in the agreement. They are late on deliveries and once they make the sale, customer service is a joke. Honestly, ship beloved items through fedex and start new. The moving industry has been allowed to scam people for decades so unless your employer provides a full service move, you're honestly going to break close to even starting fresh. Believe me, living without your things for nearly a month, isn't worth the net benefit in dollars.
