We hired this company to move us from upstate NY to Virginia, with a confirmed delivery date of 6/24. That date came and went , no delivery, no clear communication. We were traveling with two small children and had no access to our belongings for four days. Our only updates were vague messages, including a photo of a tire on fire, and broken promises.

I have never left a negative review before, but feel compelled to here because this company made my moving experience absolutely horrible. The woman who took my initial information and gave me my estimate completely overpromised. She said she would be my point of contact throughout the process; I never spoke to her again. I was told later that she was fired for overpromising. I was told initially that my stuff would be delivered same day, maybe the next day. Instead, it arrived two days later at 10pm.

If I could give zero stars I would. THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM! Expect your estimate to triple, and to pay in all cash!!! Even tho they take your deposit on cc. Absolutely horrible company to work with. After I posted my first review, the owner Kris said he would be willing to refund us ~$200 if we removed our review. I removed it and never heard back from him. At this point I couldn’t care less about a refund and would love everyone to read my review about this horrible company!!!!

I can't make this any more clear, DO NOT USE THIS MOVING COMPANY. The majority of the 5 star reviews seem fake, and the companies response to all the 1 star reviews should tell you all you need to know about how this company operates. If you care to learn more, let me share our experience: We were eager to begin the moving process when our estimate came in at a very reasonable price, although the costs began to increase.

I don't usually do reviews, bad or good. Especially bad because anyone can have an off day. I will tell you though, this moving company is so bad in so many ways that I couldn't just not speak up this time. Starting with pricing, Rapid Interstate Movers pulled a bait and switch. After all that was said and done, I paid almost twice as much as quoted. When quoting, you go over a list of things you want moved, I was given a quote. It wasn't the cheapest or the most expensive. I thought it was fair.

If I could give zero stars, I would. I was recommended Rapid Interstate Movers by a coworker who heard they were affordable and reliable for out-of-state moving, but after using them, I can confidently say that was dead wrong. From the very first phone call, I should’ve known this was going to be a nightmare. The representative on the phone sounded completely disinterested, rushed through everything, and every single question I asked felt like pulling teeth.

This place seemed very shady from the get-go. There was only one person who ever picked up the phone. Right after I shared my credit card information to book a move, I got the first scam charge that I've ever gotten on that credit card later the same day. I had to cancel my credit card of course. I then called back Rapid Interstate Movers to cancel, and I was within the 48 hours stated on the agreement.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration it caused. However, we’d like to clarify a few points. When you contacted our office regarding cancellation, you had already initiated a chargeback with your credit card provider.

BUYER BEWARE: Complaint: I hired this moving company to relocate my daughter from Maryland to Indiana for college. The experience was extremely disappointing. The movers arrived late on pickup day. Delivery took two full weeks, which is unreasonable for this distance. Upon delivery, we discovered that my daughter’s mattress was missing. She had been without a bed for the entire two weeks. I left a voicemail and specifically asked Amanda to return my call. I never received a response.

We’re sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with your experience and would like to clarify a few points. Interstate deliveries operate within a contractual delivery window due to routing logistics and federal driving regulations.

🙋‍♀️ Raise your hand if you think it’s fun to find a long-distance moving company! Yeah, I didn’t think so. If you’re searching for one, Rapid Interstate Movers is it — you can stop looking. They handled a Boston-to-New York City move for us on a very tight timeline, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. I’ll be honest, I was skeptical at first. Long-distance moving involves brokers, carriers, and a lot of confusing terminology. Rapid is a carrier, and that ended up being a huge plus.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review! We truly appreciate your trust in us for your Boston to New York City move, especially with such a tight timeline.

I recently moved from Cleveland, Ohio to Ashburn, Virginia, and I’m so glad I chose Rapid Interstate Movers for the job. From start to finish, the experience was incredibly professional and stress-free. Right from the beginning, Jared helped me with the inventory process and provided a very reasonable and transparent quote.

I must acknowledge the excellent job that Rapid Interstate Movers just completed for very close friends of mine, who moved from NC to TX. Since my friends are not from the US, they asked me to help organize their move. This responsibility weighed very heavily on me, and I am so glad that I selected Rapid Interstate Movers for this big job, which went very well.

I recently completed a move with Rapid Interstate movers and had an absolutely fantastic experience with the moving crew. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and incredibly helpful. They handled my belongings with great care and made sure everything was packed and transported safely. What stood out the most was their willingness to assist with every question I had—they were patient, knowledgeable, and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better team.
