In their own words
If I could give this company negative stars, I would. We are a military family and this is the absolute worst moving company that we have had the displeasure of dealing with. They arrived late and then after 2 hours of trying to get the truck in Our driveway, they decided it couldn't be done and rescheduled for the next week. They call on the morning of the rescheduled delivery to tell us that they don't have an extra truck that was needed so they rescheduled for the next day.
The three young men who moved me in were great. That was the only good thing about the move in (from across the country) with Coleman Allied in Manhattan, KS. I've always used Allied for moving, but this particular affiliate group is so poorly run. There was some damage to several book cases, and some screws were missing on my futon sofa. Fine, that is what insurance is for. The movers told me to call someone in the office to find out about how to resolve the issues.
Very sloppy handling of our furniture in a local move (less than 3 miles). They damaged furniture, soaked a mattress and then threatened to not even conduct a claims process until we had paid everything in full. After 15 moves in the military, this comes close to my worst experience with movers and a local general manager. I would never recommend this company.
We had a horrible experience with this company. Communication was unreliable. The move date kept getting changed and I do understand June is a busy month, however communication would have made it a little easier. First truck arrived and that team did a great job. I was not told we were to have “overload” for another truck the next day? This changed our plans and had to get a hotel I. manhatten(we lived in Herington) and drive back the next day for them to load the rest of our stuff.
We are truly sorry to hear about the challenges you faced during your move. Your experience is important to us, and we understand your frustration. Please feel free to reach out to us for further assistance or clarification on the situation.
There are not enough words to explain how absolutely terrible and unreliable this company is. Communication is a joke, no one seems to know what is going on and you can not get answers from anyone. Describing the horrific experience we, along with others have had with this moving company would be so lengthy and time consuming I would be here all day. All I can say is if you care about your possessions seek another moving company or move it yourself. Utter disbelief in how our move was handled from start to finish.
We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your move. We understand the frustration that can arise from poor communication and lack of answers. We value your feedback and would like to address your concerns further. Please contact us at [email removed]
I have never experienced any moving company quite like this! Very sloppy handling of our furniture in a local move to storage. They damaged furniture, broke awards and trophies that can never be replaced and then just dumped organized household items and craft items from plastic bin into boxes. After 20 years in the military, this was my worst experience with movers. The government hired them to do three days work packing and three days work unpacking.
NEVER AGAIN! They came and stayed 2hrs to pack not even half my house was done before they called it a day. They “packed” by shoving as much stuff into every drawer they could find. They broke part of my dresser by doing this and I’m not looking forward to them coming back. They stained my carpet which I now need to clean and did not apologize or offer services. You can tell they are not taught how to pack or just trying to save as much time, effort, and money as possible.
Our unaccompanied baggage pickup was scheduled for Sept 2nd, 8-10 am, but they arrived around 5 pm! 🙄 They packed for 2 hours, then crammed our stuff in the truck without a crate, promising to crate it at the warehouse. 🤦♀️ Guess what? They only shipped a fraction of our stuff and LOST the rest, including my husband's army gear, baby items, kitchenware, beddings, towels, new bags, clothes, his gaming PC, decorations, and many more!😡

Zach led the move with confidence and made sure everything stayed organized and on schedule.

Exceptional Moving Service – Dylan, Deshawn & Teddy Deserve a Raise! I recently had the pleasure of working with Dylan, Deshawn, and Teddy for my household move, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism, efficiency, and care. From start to finish, they handled my belongings with the utmost respect, ensuring that everything was packed, loaded, and delivered safely.

I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding service provided by the Coleman Worldwide Moving team in Manhattan, Kansas. Our furniture was initially moved from Hawaii to Manhattan, Kansas, and later, when our family made the decision to relocate from Kansas to Connecticut, our entitlements ended in Kansas. This required us to complete a self-paid move using rental trucks.
Thank you, George, for your heartfelt review and for highlighting the exceptional service of our team in Manhattan. We're glad to hear that our professionalism and care made such a positive impact during your moves. Your appreciation for the team's efforts and Mr.
Trish, Zack, Alex, Olivia, and Andrew made my PCS move an absolute breeze. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, organized, and worked insanely fast while still taking care of all of my belongings. You could tell they had great teamwork and communication because everything flowed smoothly from start to finish. Moving is usually stressful, especially during a PCS, but they made the entire process feel easy and efficient.
Thank you, Ashley! We’re glad to hear that Trish, Zack, Alex, Olivia, and Andrew made your PCS move a smooth experience. Your appreciation for their teamwork and professionalism means a lot to us. We're grateful for your recommendation and wish you all the best in your new location!
