They are HORRIBLE. I don't even want to give them a star. They are unprofessional. They don't follow through with the service promised. I paid them to do an international move, a door-to-door service, but it ended up being a door-to-port service. And then they blame the freight company for not doing the job. I had to take care of customs clearance and the delivery from the port to my home.
I am trying to recover the differences between door-to-door and door-to-port services, but they have yet to respond after two weeks (i.e., they don't return emails, never picks up the phone, won't return voice messages). I am now considering taking legal action against them.
If you want unprofessional, insincere, dishonest, rude movers, go with them. Otherwise, stay away!!!!!!

We apologize you feel this way. Please understand that we followed through from the start with your shipment. It was supposed to be a door-to-door, but unfortunately, due to your lack of steps/requirements, that were requested from you, and not provided by you, to the destination agent, this shipment was not able to continue with the door-to-door. Kindly be aware that the joint relationship between our clients and us must have both parties following through with the requirements requested in both origin and destination. At this time, we are advocating for you with the agent in destination. We will continue to do so, but again, the failure on your part cased the shipment to be halted in the port, thus making it a door-to-port shipment. Please call us, and we will continue to try to help you in the best way possible; send us any invoices that you had to pay, and we will review and try to reimburse you once we get the monies from the appropriate parties involved--as we spoke of over the p hone.Read more

This company is a complete scam. I hired them to my international moving, I paid for door to door service, I paid insurance but when I contact then to file a claim never responded any phone call or mail. They did not pay the local moving company so I had to pay otherwise my furniture would be in customs forever. I will file a claim also with the BBB, I want to make sure that this people don't have the chance to do business in USA anymore.
Complete scam
They lie to get your money and despaired

We are sorry to hear of your complaint. We informed you of all the costs, and you did not take out any insurance that we offered. With regard to payment overseas, you were notified that international governmental port terminal in Buenos Aires charges were due by our agent, and were to be paid by you in destination. Review the invoice again, and you will see that this is the case. In addition, the cargo was released to you, but in good faith, with no payment on your part as of yet for the this last leg of your cargo. The agent will be reaching out to you with regard to your payment due. Writing negative reviews to intimidate does not waive your charges. Again, please look over your contract, and if you still feel the way you do, kindly take us to court, where a fair judge will give a just judgement. Do not use these platforms to slander us and deceit others.

Originalmente te pasan un precio bajo, cuando avanzas con las negociaciones te pasan el presupuesto detallado, triplicaron el monto original, el argumento era porque ahora sumaban todos los gastos como fletes internos, gastos en Puerto de destino, etc., logramos reducir en algo el costo sacando el servicio puerta a puerta. Cuando se llevaron mi carga me pasaron la factura y otra vez superaba lo acordado, siendo que había mandado menos pies cúbicos con la idea de bajar costos y me cobraron más de usd 300 de palletizado cuando yo mismo palletize la carga. A esta altura ya estaba por tomar el vuelo y a pesar de discutir decidí pagar para que manden la carga. En destino me tardaron 20 días en entregar la carga por desinformación entre [nombre eliminado por Sirelo] y su agente en Valencia, discutir todos los días hasta que me entregaron la carga. La experiencia fue muy mala desde principio a fin, todas las partes involucradas muy poco profesionales y sin ninguna ética, no deberían trabajar más con esta 'empresa'.Read more

They have very good customer service and I would use them again and again if I needed to. I told all my friends how good their service was. They were very fair priced for all the work they did for me. I would want to try them again if I needed that service again. They were very nice and helpful. Was a very fast response and I would say to everyone they make it easy, fast and fair. I really like doing company with this business. They took good care of the things they needed to and were very helpful and concerned about the things I wanted them to do for me. Nice company.

- SEEMED COMPETITIVE, BUT WAS VERY EXPENSIVE - The company sent me a very competitive estimate, based on the packing list I shared. The packing list was quite detailed and gave them a good idea of the volume of the items to be transported. The final price paid was more than 3x the estimate that I based my decision on...
- LYING ABOUT SERVICES INCLUDED - Confirmed multiple times that all fees were included and I wouldn't have to pay anything at destination, but I ended up paying custom fees at destination. Mentioned the service would be door to door including unpacking, and I had to hire my own guy to help open the wooden crate that was sent.
- TERRIBLE COMMUNICATION - Unclear communication, with multiple phone calls, unclear emails, different versions of the same story.
THIS COMPANY IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY AT ALL. DO NOT HIRE THEIR SERVICES.

Sorry you feel this way. Can you please let us know what service we provided to you. We have no record of you doing any business with us. Kindly identify yourself...as we believe you are a competitive company trying to tarnish our service. We will be more than happy to address and correct any error in your shipping, but one must exist in order to do so. We will be flagging you for fraudulent posting.

Company was great. They were quick and took care of everything. Thought the move was going to be the biggest headache, but these guys were professional and took care of all the paperwork and transporting of my belongings right inside my rental....thank God as I don't speak the language yet. Will use them again if I ever have to move again. Highly recommend.

I don't think I have ever come across a company a well-run as these movers. The management takes a lot of care to ensure that clients know what they are being charged for and guiding us along the process. The great work ethic is evident even in the movers. Fantastic experience.

I contacted this company (Intlmovers-es and Cunha international Transportation) on April in order to have them move our belongings door-to-door from NYC to Barcelona, Spain. After obtaining a quote of $970.00 we proceeded to pay the $500.00 security deposit. The company ([Name removed by Sirelo] who is the International Relocation Coordinator Specialist in Logistics) came accompanied by two other employees and picked up our belongings. During that time, in which he personally saw the entire number of boxes and other belongings that we were sending (as he was physically present during the loading into a white rental van), he told us that they would measure everything and get back to us with the final price. Although he did state that it was “a little more than he expected”, he never expressed that the amount would be considerably higher, let alone increased 570% or multiplied by 6. We understand estimate quotes are estimate and will always vary. We were more than willing to accept a reasonably higher quote; however, a 570% increase is not fair, reasonable or acceptable. Especially with no prior notice.
After two weeks without hearing back from them through phone or e-mail, (despite our several attempts to contact them) we received an email stating that the total and final amount would be $6,658.74. Immediately after reading the e-mail we attempted to contact [Name removed by Sirelo] and left a voicemail stating that unfortunately we did not or could not afford that, we received an e-mail that same day stating that “we are sorry that you feel as such but note that your cargo has left. (…) There is no way to retract the cargo once it is on the water”. However, we had never signed a contract or officially agreed to any amount other than the $970.00 initially quoted. Still to this day, we have yet to sign any type of contract, inventory, bill of lading, or any kind of official document. As a matter of fact, we have yet to sign anything at all.
After this, an extended exchange of e-mails and phone calls began. During these calls, we attempted to explain that we never agreed to a $6,658.74 quote and that we would gladly give up our deposit of $500.00 and personally go to their location to pick up our belongings. First were told that it was impossible because our things were in transit to Barcelona, then, that they were in a warehouse in Miami. Every time we asked [Nane removed by Sirelo] about the possibility of recuperating our belongings, understanding that we would lose the $500.00 deposit, we were told it was impossible.
After stating that we were going to sue them, [Name removed by Sirelo] stated that he would be able to lower the price. After several attempts and several offers ($4,597.24; and then $2,880.00) we came to an agreement of $2,180.00. To obtain this price, we had to agree to losing our couch and picking up our belongings at the port instead of having them delivered at our address as we were initially told.
During this exchange and negotiation, we were only able to talk to [Name removed by Sirelo] and continuously received e-mails stating that we were responsible for any additional costs, and that if we did not comply or belonging would be left in a random port. None of the e-mails sent by the company addressed any of the concerns we discussed over the phone with [Name removed by Sirelo] and he insisted that the payment had to be done immediately (at this point we still did not have any type of contract or official document). They expected us to pay the entire amount of $2,180.00 with no guaranties that we would not be charged any additional charges or fees and that our belongings would make it safely to Barcelona, Spain.
At this time, they still have all our belongings and we have been forced to file an official complaint through the Federal Maritime Commission and the NY Attorney General office.Read more

The quote was 800$ first on a door to door service, then final 1600$ for less service (door to port) after they picked up our boxes, then we had to pay 450$ extra to the company in France that took care of the custom and bring it to another place than the port we asked for. More than doubling the first quote is the worst experience someone could have for a move overseas, especially when you're pregnant like I was... Terrible experience !
No confirmation by email, just by phone so no proof to contest the price
Final price or all included quote are completely unclear and wrong
