Horrible service and stuff was missing a lot of stuff went on the truck and never came off.sad part was we we kind offered food and drinks while they were working and charge us a lot more than what they said.will never use them again..they can’t there word one person doesn’t know what the other person doing no communication with anyone. This is the reason why we are leaving this city and state to many companies out there to take advantage of people and their disabilities. I thought va was better than that.

We’re sorry to hear that your 2024 move did not meet your expectations, and that we did not hear from you in the last 2 years. Our records note that during the on-site estimate, you did not have access to your 4 storage units to show the … More

Earlier this month I had reviewed a move from VA to CA. There was damage, mostly light but some severe. In my error, I did not properly follow the insurance instructions prior to attempting to cure the damage. That was my responsibility. Varsity managent was quick to seek resolution after my original review, feeling though that the damage was not excessive. One's own things, I assume, are more important to the owner than others viewing them.

If I could give zero stars I would. Movers were half an hour late, couldn't keep from pulling their pants up the entire time, one even said, "Oops, I almost dropped that". Not very reassuring to someone who has paid for their assistance. We will not be using them again.

We apologize that your move did not go smoothly and that our crew was not "Varsity Ready" and professional, as they are expected to be. Would you mind sharing a few more details with regards to the date we completed your move, as we're having issues locating your information in our system.

They put out advertisements at 125 an hour. Then they want pictures so they can estimate time which they never talk about. Once they done this their hourly rate went up to 165. What should be a two person team less than 2 hours they have …

Thank you for your feedback. We make every effort to provide accurate, but conservative, estimates so that our customers are not surprised with unexpected charges at the end of the move. This is especially true when we have not seen the items we will be moving in person.

Got a quote plus a live walk through. Quote was BETWEEN $3200-3550. When they finished they handed me a bill for around $7000. …

Mr. Phillips, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. The scope of the job drastically changed from the estimate to moving day and we were not informed of the changes. We only charge for the services we provide and we went above and beyond to complete your move, per your request…

I had an outstanding experience with Virginia Varsity moving company from start to finish. Bradley Hurt and his team handled my move from Roanoke to Richmond, VA, and made what could have been a stressful day feel easy and organized. The entire team was incredibly thorough, professional, and friendly. They stayed on top of every detail, communicated clearly throughout the process, and treated all of my belongings with great care.

This is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. The people are so nice and informative. Misty and Shauna in the office were extremely nice and helpful. They made this experience easy. The moving van arrived exactly when they told me it would. The two men in the truck, Zack and Elijah, were two of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. They worked steady to get the load out of my basement into their van.

The 4 man crew got to our previous house at 8AM, right on time, did a quick walk through and went to work. At the new house they again did a walk through and then went to work. They finished the move early. The young men were personable and seemed trustworthy and offered to move the furniture a few times if necessary to different spots for us.. Based on our experience I would highly recommend this company. Tim

OUTSTANDING movers. Hard workers. Sorry I bought insurance -- not needed. Reasonable price. We downsized and moved in 3 phases. Nothing but 1st class all the way.
