*** moved over 40 times and this is, by far, the worst experience ever Ive had. EXTRA SPACE MOVING AND STORAGE was written on the contract but they are no where to be found on moving day. I was dealing with Expert Logistics somewhere in ** & was never able to get help from anyone at the moving company I thought I hired. Extra Space Moving and Storage is in ************, **. I sent multiple pictures and video to a woman in ** prior to pick up & she never said I was over budget. They never made the TWO DAY window to pick up and I had to fly back on day 3. They told me to leave key and they would load & send me pictures. When they arrived they told me it would be double what they quoted. If I wanted my belongings I was forced to pay double the price. I TOLD THEM EXACTLY WHAT I HAD AND IT WAS A STORAGE UNIT SO THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME HALF OF WHAT I REALLY NEED ON THE INITIAL CALL. When they finally loaded they sent me ONE picture of their truck & all I could see was the very last boxes loaded.I am missing several items with my name attached directly to each item with Duct tape. A new 6 Gorilla Ladder, rolling cart, storage lock & key, **************** kitchen items. Everything had been crushed. I am missing all ************ mugs, silverware. A pink blanket is shown unpacked in the final picture I have & was packed in a box when it arrived. Thats how I know they opened my boxes and picked out what they wanted & taped them back up. Delivery was also rescheduled several times. Then I had to have cash for the driver unloading by himself until 11pm. When he left the inventory list, it didnt have half of the items he brought-only boxes listed on it. I have called, sent emails, texted, even texted the driver who picked up & have gotten zero responses. They go dark after you sign. This whole process was costly & disappointing. I have little hope of recovering any of the items missing from my delivery or reimbursement for the items broken in transit. Reviews posted!Initial Complaint

On Saturday, April 6, 2024 just after 7pm, I signed a contract for services for an upcoming move in mid-June. After having a cousin who works in the moving business review the contract, I cancelled on Sunday, April 7, 2024 just before 4pm. I was sent a cancellation receipt timestamped within 24 hours, because in the contract I signed it specifically outlines that I am entitled to a full refund if I cancel within 24 hours. I then emailed the merchant to request the refund since the woman who sent the cancellation email said she was unable to process one, and they acknowledged the clause regarding the refund policy but told me that my credit card authorization superseded the contract and that they would not be processing a refund. Nowhere in the actual contract does it state that those who pay by credit card would not be offered a refund, nor does it state anywhere among the two documents that one supersedes the other. I emailed them back to point out the ambiguity of the contract on their end and request a refund for the second time, also noting that I was verbally reassured I would receive a refund and that I am a college student to whom $1300 is not an insignificant amount of money, and they have not responded to me since. They also will not return any of my phone calls. I have since filed a claim with my bank which was assumed to be found in my favor until today, when they let me know that their hands are tied since the contract includes two contradictory statements regarding when a refund will be issued (essentially allowing for the merchant to pick and choose when and who to provide a refund - a scam of a business practice).Business Response

Dear ****************,
Thank you for your follow-up regarding the complaint submitted by ***************************** (Complaint ID: *********. We apologize for the delay in our response and appreciate your patience.
We have reviewed the details of ********************** complaint and would like to provide clarification on our company's policy regarding deposits and refunds.
According to the terms and conditions outlined in both the estimate and the credit card authorization form signed by ******************, the deposit paid at the time of booking is non-refundable. While we understand ********************** concern about the refund policy, it is explicitly stated in the documents she signed that the deposit cannot be refunded, regardless of the timing of the cancellation.
****************** mentioned that she canceled within 24 hours and received a cancellation receipt. However, as per our policy, the credit card authorization form, which she also signed, clearly states that the deposit is non-refundable. Although the estimate does not explicitly state that the credit card authorization form supersedes the 24-hour cancellation policy, the terms outlined in the authorization form do take precedence in this case.
We have communicated this policy to ****************** . We have always strived to be transparent about our policies, and we regret any confusion that *** have arisen in this instance.
We value our customers and strive to resolve any issues they *** have. However, in this case, our policy must be upheld as per the agreements signed by ******************. We are willing to discuss this matter further and provide additional clarification if needed.
Thank you for your understanding and assistance in this matter. We look forward to resolving this complaint promptly and amicably.
Sincerely,
*************************************

Dear ****************,
Thank you for bringing this complaint to our attention. We value the feedback from our customers and aim to resolve any issues promptly and fairly.
After reviewing the details of ***************************** complaint, we would like to provide our perspective on the situation.
************** hired Extra Space Moving and Storage for a long-distance move and received an estimate based on the inventory provided. Our records indicate that the estimate included 57 boxes as part of the inventory list. We understand that ************** disputes this and claims that he never mentioned boxes but specified larger furniture items, including 2 sofas, 2 chairs, a desk, 4 beds (with mattresses, headboards, and footboards), a washer, and a dryer.
Our process involves creating an inventory list based on the information provided by the customer during the initial consultation. It is possible that there was a misunderstanding or miscommunication regarding the items to be moved. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
We would like to work towards an amicable resolution. Here are the steps we propose:
Inventory Review: We will review the recorded consultation to verify the items listed and compare them with ****************** provided list.
Revised Estimate: If there was an error in the initial inventory, we will issue a revised estimate reflecting the correct items.
Resolution: Depending on the findings, we will discuss with ************** the best way to proceed, ensuring that the correct items are included in the move and the associated costs are accurately reflected.
We would appreciate ****************** cooperation in providing any additional details or documentation that could help clarify the inventory list and the items discussed.
We aim to resolve this matter fairly and ensure ****************** satisfaction with our services. Please let us know if there are any further steps or information required from our side to facilitate the resolution process.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your response and working towards a satisfactory resolution for **************.
Sincerely,
*************************************

We were locked into a rate of $1679.75 verbally. I told them I had a four bedroom house, and they gave me a misleading and falsifying contract, increasing the price to $4150 4 days before the 5 day cutoff for cancelation. They claimed they couldn't give our deposit back. They changed the date of the quality assurance call when they revealed the new price until after the cutoff date, intentionally ensuring they would keep the deposit after tricking us.Business Response

Dear ****************,
Thank you for your communication regarding the complaint submitted by *************************************. We take this matter very seriously and appreciate the opportunity to clarify the situation.
At Extra Space Moving and Storage, we do not engage in verbal agreements concerning contract terms and pricing. All agreements are formally documented to ensure clarity and compliance with industry standards.
Our records indicate that ******************** was provided with a written estimate based on the initial information she provided regarding her moving requirements. Upon a detailed assessment closer to the move date, it was identified that the actual requirements exceeded those initially stated, which necessitated a revision of the estimated costs. This adjustment was communicated in writing and required acknowledgment before proceeding.
Regarding the cancellation and the non-refundable deposit, our policy clearly states that deposits are non-refundable if the service is canceled outside the designated window. This policy is in place to compensate for the allocation of resources and scheduling commitments made based on the customer's initial confirmation.
We are committed to resolving this matter in a manner that is fair and satisfactory for all parties involved. Please let us know if there is any further information we can provide or any other way we can assist in this process.
Thank you for your attention to this matter and for helping facilitate a constructive dialogue.
Sincerely,

I am rejecting this response because: The verbal agreement I came to with your agent did not match the paperwork that was supposed to be based on that agreement. I told him I was moving a four bedroom house, and he gave me less than 300 cubic feet of space in the contract. A direct violation of the verbal agreement I had with your company. If I had known you would charge me $3000 more than the original agreement, I never would have signed the contract. Thus, I never should have had to pay the deposit. These were maliciously deceptive tactics instigated to rob me of the deposit money, knowing they'd never have to lift a finger. In order for this complaint to be satisfied, I need to have the deposit refunded.

Salesman of this company told me they could move my mother-in-law from ******** to ******* in. Truck that had outlets in it so she could bring two freezers with the contents in them. I called them back a week later to confirm my move and information was correct. They then told me they did not have trucks with outlets and it was illegal for them to move food. I then cancelled my move with the company and requested a refund of my $734 deposit I paid and they told me they wouldnt refund it. I called and asked about it and they said I signed a contract that said I had 24 hours to cancel and receive a refund and they didnt care that the salesman lied to me, they would not refund me any money.Business Response

Complaint against, Extra Space Moving and Storage LLC, Company ID # ******** We conducted a search of moving companies online on March 27, 2024. Subsuquently, we were then contacted by this company, Extra Space Moving and Storage LLC.After discussing our move from ******* to ** and dates needed for March 29th, I was quoted a price, after my AAA/Progressive discount, would be $1522.45.On this call I gave banking information for the down payment.However, after discussing it further with our family, we opted to rent a truck and move the items ourselves, which was more accomodating since we had less items to fill such a big truck.We immediately called back and cancelled the reservation, as we opted to self-move.We were then and only then, told there was a cancellation fee, which was never conveyed to us. And, then we were instructed to use Cash APP or Zellle to pay to cancel. (Which seems very skethchy to say the least).Again, we cancelled on March 28th on the phone and was then emailed a cancellation policy and fees AFTR, our request to cancel. This was never communicated at any point of our reservation.Now we are getting threatining emails for $653..7 for SERVICES THAT WERE NEVER RENDERED.THEY DID NOT PICK UP OR MOVE ANY ITEMS AT ALL.There was no physical contact or truck arriving for this service.This company seems to have preditory pratices.I want an official BBB complaint filed against them.I also want the company to stop all collection efforts including sending harassing emails and threats to file with the crediit agenciies.SERVICES WERE NEVER RENDERED!Initial Complaint

*I was lied to* and told by the salesman that I could receive a refund for the deposit at any time before the move, should I change my mind. I went and put a Stop Payment through my bank for the down payment (around $660) *the.same.day* that it was charged to my account (still in pending status) after changing my mind and deciding to do the move myself.The company emails me a couple of weeks later saying that my account will be sent to collections in 7 days, unless the issue is resolved (stating that I can contact customer service to have this fixed, or I could fix it by paying the "outstanding balance on my account."Keep in mind the move is A WHOLE TWO MONTHS AWAY (plenty of time in advance for any business to cancel and readjust "bookings")I contact customer service within the 7 days and I am then literally EXTORTED saying there is no way they can cancel the move two months away (even though I no longer need the service) and that the only way that I will not be sent to collections is if I pay the "outstanding balance" (which at this point I am not sure if that is just the down payment or the entire cost of the move $1,600+).This is all after I was told that I could cancel the move at any time and that my deposit was refundable. There were NO SERVICES RENDERED at any point during this exchange. THEY ARE SENDING ME TO COLLECTIONS EVEN THOUGH THEY DIDN'T DO A HYPOTHETICAL MOVE 2 MONTHS AWAY.Stay away from this company. I can only hope that people read this before agreeing to being pressured to sign up for a service on the spot during the first call. This is an extremely predatory business.Initial Complaint

Be very wary of signing any contract with this moving company. The sales rep will assure you that your deposit is 100% refundable up to 5 days prior to the move, despite the fact that the contract does not explicitly state that. When I read the contract and asked what guarantees that the deposit is refundable, ************************* said he would send me a recording of the 3/30/24 phone call and be my personal point of contact throughout my move. When I called to cancel my scheduled 4/27/24 move on 4/14/24, supervisor ************************* informed me that the deposit is nonrefundable and that there was no possible way ****** could have recorded the phone call. This company's sales tactics are deceptive and deceitful, as they convince customers to sign contracts under false pretenses.Business Response

L I recently hired Extra Space Moving for a residential move, and it was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. Initially, they quoted me a seemingly reasonable price over the phone based on the inventory I provided. However, when moving day arrived, the truck was a whopping 2 hours late, leaving me and my family waiting anxiously.What's worse, upon arrival, they had the audacity to claim that the inventory I provided exceeded the allocated cubic feet and demanded an ADDITIONAL $6,000 to move the items that were CLEARLY listed on the service agreement! This blatant attempt to extort more money from me left me feeling outraged and taken advantage of.To add insult to injury, they arrived at the destination a further 2 hours late! After waiting over an hour at the destination, I decided to call the driver, thinking perhaps he needed help finding the new house. However, instead of an apology or explanation, I was met with nothing but rudeness. The driver arrogantly informed me that he had stopped to eat and would arrive when he pleased, dismissing any need to explain himself to a paying customer.As if that wasn't enough, they also refused to reassemble the bed at the destination, even though this service was clearly included in their agreement! Their unwillingness to fulfill their basic obligations added insult to injury.This appalling lack of professionalism and basic decency is unacceptable. It's abundantly clear that Extra Space Moving prioritizes their own convenience over the well-being and satisfaction of their customers. To top it off, I now have to rent a truck and finish the move myself, adding insult to injury.Business Response
