HORRIBLE!!!! Scammers!!!! Between Zippy Shell and the “sister company” Pack Rat I don’t know which is worse. Took unauthorized payments from bank, never showed up on date of move leaving us in a terrible bind and having to pay double for another company last minute….just stay away from these two companies one of the worst mistakes ever!!!

Only gave 1 star because I couldn't give 0 (Zero) DO NOT use this company for a move!!! I moved from CO to CA at the beginning of this month. The scheduled drop-off was for 7/26. They called and told us they were going to be 7/27 or 7/30 late after I had paid for expedited drop-off service. We took off the week from work to move items into our new home. They charged us a gas surcharge for subsidiaries on top of the agreed-upon amount. Our bill went from $8000 to $9000. The pod is STILL sitting in a facility a distance from o... read more

This has been the worst experience ever with a moving/storage company. We were buying a shore house and were looking for a ez solution to buying and storing/moving those items to fill a 2000 sq ft house. 1) the pod did arrive on time, which was the last time anything was done as agreed per conversations with many employees and management(escalation team?) we had the unit for approximately 2 weeks when we received a call from a (area supervisor) that some of our paperwork was never processed. At that time of speaking with the... read more

A company who cancels your shipment the same day and change the pickup date without letting you know !! I am definitely out of words and ‘’beyond disappointed’’ is not enough to describe what this company put my family through. We are moving crosscountry with a newborn, a toddler, and two dogs. We figured that it would be easier to have our household goods picked up and shipped to our next home vs. trying to do everything ourselves and drive 3000 miles with a 3-bedroom worth of furnitures. We scheduled our moved ahead of tim... read more

Absolutely Abysmal Service! I had a pick up day scheduled of July 25,2022 since I had the pod delivered on April 25,2022. I started calling on July 7 asking if it could be picked up early as we sold house and needed driveway space for movers. I was told absolutely not I had to keep my scheduled July 25 date. I then called July 15 again asking for it to be picked up early to be told same thing. July 25 came and they did not email call or show! After being on hold 2+ hours I was told the truck broke and it was not going to hap... read more

DO NOT use this company for a move!!! I moved from NY to *** ******* at the beginning of this month. The scheduled drop off was for 7/7. The drop off was late after I had paid for an expedited drop off service. I had to take off work and there was no accountability or apology on their end. The day prior to drop off I had received a text stating the pod could not be picked up until 8/5/22. The pod is STILL sitting on a "paid" city street, creating a blind spot for tenants pulling out of the apartment building to oncoming traf... read more

This company boasts “1-800-PACK-RAT offers a level of customer service & quality that ****** ******, & others just can’t match”, “Pledge to complete customer satisfaction.” This service failed at all points. Hour-long wait times & rude. I was charged for this failure of service on 6/27/2022, $5321, plus rent. The online portal did not update when we requested the transport. We called to confirm our transport request. We got verbal confirmation from a customer service representative (CSR) that it was in transit from ****** **... read more

My review is about 1-800-PACK-RAT, LLC. I am so frustrated and wished I had read this before agreeing with this company. My pod was supposed to be delivered on 7/21. The driver called and texted me at 8:05am and I missed the call, but returned the call and texted within 20 mins without answer. I again called a bit later with no answer again. My wife and I have been trying to get a hold of someone all day and then they tell us the earliest they can do is literally the day we're leaving. I finally got in touch with "escalation... read more
