    ZippGo Moving Boxes - Packing up

    Financial District

    ZippGo moving boxes provided a wonderful service for our move. After seeing some neighbors using a…read morereusable box service, I decided to look into using something similar. ZippGo rents you a certain amount of boxes based on how many rooms/square feet you are moving, and they deliver the boxes to your address, you use them for a move, and they pick them up at the new address. It was easy to schedule and make sure the drop off and pickup worked at an appropriate time. The boxes themselves are sturdy plastic, and the top interlocks so you don't need any packing tape. The boxes fit on top of each other which makes them easy to stack and move. You can also pick box inserts that are designed for plates and glassware which made it so easy to move these items. I would recommend ZippGo in a heartbeat- it made our move faster, easier, and more eco friendly too!

    I am so incredibly grateful for ZippGo! I tried going back to regular cardboard boxes that I picked…read moreup for free for a small move--big mistake! The difference in packing efficiency was so noticeable compared to my last few moves using their system, that I reached out to ZippGo this morning with a last-minute request to switch over. Even though their driver was already on the road, Sarah was incredibly responsive and quickly worked out solutions to get me what I needed in record time. Sarah and her driver, Javier's, dedication to customer service was truly impressive. That said, I'd recommend planning ahead rather than making last-minute requests like I did! Note that their drivers don't work on Sundays and Mondays, so be sure to schedule your box deliveries in advance. ZippGo's reusable box system is a genuine time-saver that makes moving so much easier and more streamlined. 10/10 would recommend to anyone moving!

What I encountered was end-to-end excellence, from customer service to their excellent moving team. I knew our move would be a large one, so I booked a 26' truck and five-person crew. As the day of the move approached, I had lots of last-minute worries and questions and Sam, in Customer Service, answered every one and generally calmed my nerves, assuring me my move team would assist if we needed last-minute help. On the day of the move, the team arrived right on time. The foreman, Guillermo, assessed our situation and calmly confirmed my suspicious that we'd need two trucks (this my error, not OnTrack's). Before I could panic, he had contacted his team and we arranged that ours be a two day move. Guillermo's team wrapped our furniture and had the truck loaded swiftly. At the new house, we had a few of our family help direct traffic. I'd labelled every box with a color-coded room label and the team got everything to the proper room. On day two, Sammy -- part of the original crew -- acted as lead and we repeated the process. Here, a number of items still needed a bit of packing and his team had everything done in record time and -- bless them - marked the boxes for the proper room destinations without prompting. As I now unpack, I'm finding everything in excellent condition and couldn't be more grateful. We'd heard stories about moving nightmares and wanted to share a happy ending. Guillermo and Sammy were AMAZING and their crews were very hard working. Tips: my sister had a table of bottled waters, bags of chips, and other snacks ready for the team when we arrived at the new house. The team appeared grateful for the sustenance. We also tipped each person individually, in cash.

They're professional, fast, friendly and took great care with all our belongings. What really impressed us was the speed at which they worked and how well our furniture (and other items not in boxes) were padded and wrapped so securely. The unload went just as smoothly and at each location, not a speck of packing material (they brought tape, wrap and other supplies) was left behind. Amazing! Thank you Felipe and crew for taking such good care of us and being so efficient. We also appreciate the kindness and positive attitudes and smiles despite how hard the work is!! Best move yet!!

    The worst movers I have ever used I have moved several times…read morein my 68 years, and my experience moving from California to Texas with NorthStar was the worst I have ever had with a mover. My framed artwork (two posters, a batik from Indonesia, and a lithograph) completely disappeared once the packers in Berkeley took it. When the boxes arrived, some of them were smashed in and it was clear they had not handled my goods with care. Multiple items were damaged. Administratively, they were equally awful. I asked them to provide all written terms and conditions upfront before I signed and put down my deposit, and they assured me they done this, but at the last minute, when I obviously couldn't hire another mover, they insisted that I sign additional terms that were very one-sided in their favor. (I did not sign these and made notes on the document regarding the duress they were putting me under.) For the document authorizing the final credit card payment, they tried slipping in a provision saying that I authorized them to make any other charges they wanted. (I removed that language, but it was a pretty sleazy trick to try to pull.) Then, when they delivered my goods (minus the artwork), the driver insisted that I sign a document saying I had received everything, which was clearly false. When I explained this, he threatened to take all of my goods back if I did not sign. (Again, I did not sign, but made notes regarding why on the paperwork.) I would never use this company again.

I am currently dealing with a major digital security compromise and a pending police report, meaning I cannot safely access email on my phone and needed to use their customer computer. The customer computer was down. Instead of offering an alternative workaround to help a customer in a crisis, the employee (male with a dark beard, glasses, face mask, and hat) was incredibly curt, rigid, and dismissive. He flat-out refused to help, stating, "This is a business," and even lied by saying he didn't know the address of a nearby sister store to avoid looking it up. I literally stood in front of him and called the Menlo Park UPS store. They immediately agreed to help me print my documents using alternative methods, despite having the exact same technical outage. When I told this employee that the other store was willing to assist, he just gave a lazy, "Sorry, I can't." Avoid this location. If you expect standard problem-solving or decent human customer service, go to the Menlo Park location instead. They actually care about helping people.
