1-star Google reviewTeresa K.Edited 2 years ago
I would NEVER recommend Wildcat Van Lines! It was the worst experience. They sent a truck way too small for the job ( I even met with them a second time to confirm they could get everything in one truck (to which I got “we do this all the time and know what we are doing). No one should have to hear their 80 year old parents cry because Wildcat rep “miscalculated “ and wanted another $8,000 on moving day to make it right or get rid of their belongings ( they lost a lot of stuff that day).

It's unfortunate that Ms. Kinberger reverted to writing an unabashedly misleading review of our small business nearly ten months after our initial correspondence. She claims that she's been waiting on a call back, however, when we initially … More

I would not recommend this company. The movers refused to put my tvs on the truck, and broke a leg off my tv stand. When I wanted to be compensated for having to drive 5 hours the next day to move my own tvs, they refused. Further, when speaking to a representative on the phone, they blamed the whole thing on me! I should have called this person when the movers refused to put the tvs on the truck, or I should have contacted someone! They accepted no responsibility for not having tv boxes on the truck!

I did not have the same experience these other reviewers have had. We had them move custom made millwork from a master craftsman and so many pieces arrived so damaged they are unusable. When I called, I was told they were made incorrectly …

4-star Google reviewTessa S.a year ago
Communication throughout was great. Honest estimate - good price. Nothing broken, everything accounted for. One of the packers did a lousy job, using more boxes than needed, other packer was efficient & professional. Loaders were amazing - truck that showed up was smaller than anticipated & with the poor packing, it was a tough job. We had to leave a few things behind last minute, but wasn’t a big deal. Unloaders were fine - did not show interest in wanting to help reassemble bed frames & other furniture.

Stop wasting time looking for a moving company and call Xavier at Wildcat Van Lines. We moved from Kentucky to Texas and everything was perfect. Big Blue packed our house and did an outstanding job (Robbie, Ethan, Jack & Matt).Crew that empty truck in Texas was on time and also did an excellent job handling all of the merchandise. Wildcat Van Lines Driver was professional and did an excellent job maneuvering around tight areas in our subdivision.

We had a great experience with Wildcat Moving/Wildcat Van Lines. Dillion and William helped pack up everything. They were careful and informative about the moving process. They got everything done in a timely manner and kept me updated on what was going on. Todd called me personally to make sure everything was going smoothly and if I had any questions. Everything got moved across state lines no damage and quickly. My dad is very happy in his new home and we can thank Wildcat moving.

Ashton with Wildcat is the single reason that our cross country move was able to happen. After a horrendous experience with the local movers, Ashton went above and beyond his role to help pack and load well into the morning hours to make certain that he was able to get our belongings on the road and to their destination on schedule. When he arrived at the destination, he again helped u load and assemble furniture, making our move as seamless as it could be given the situation we were in.
