‘It was pretty shocking’: Customer claims moving company held belongings hostage
A local woman thought she hired the right movers, then got hit with a huge bill.
Ashley Rogers said, “We’re not the kind of people that have thousands and thousands of dollars just sitting around. So, it was definitely stressful.”
Rogers claims the moving company threatened to hold their belongings hostage unless they paid up. This is the same type of scenario Action 9 has exposed before and the company involved appears to be connected to other companies that aren’t even allowed to do moves in Florida. Rogers told Action 9 Consumer Investigator Jeff Deal, the company let Rogers and her husband know about the new inflated price after their belongings were already loaded on the truck.
Smart moving companies
Small preventative steps eliminate expensive problems. Photograph furniture and fragile pieces, plus any pre-existing dings in walls, elevator panels, or hallway corners. Confirm your valuation coverage in writing and know the difference between basic released value and full-value protection. If you have stone tops, oversized mirrors, or art, ask about crating or soft-packing options and decide before move day. Build a “hot box” with medication, chargers, essential documents, and a basic toolkit; keep it with you. Finally, appoint a single point of contact who stays on-site from walkthrough to final sweep. Decision latency is the hidden cost in most overlong moves. More about choosing a mover
