DO NOT USE THIS MOVING COMPANY. They are brokers. "American Dream Movers" and "American Dream Relocation, LLC" operate as the exact same entity. They frequently swap between these names, and public consumer complaints outline a severe pattern of fraudulent bait-and-switch behavior.
The fact that they immediately pivoted to calling animal control authorities on me when they realized they couldn't force me into a scam proves that this was malicious retaliation because I didn't play along with their trap.
Background: These movers were supposed to move me from NJ to PA yesterday for $3700, with a 26 ft truck and 3 guys for a 3 bedroom house and the contents of a garage. These guys showed up with a small box truck and only two guys. There was no way they could move me.
After I told them there's no way you're gonna be able to move me in that small truck, they left. Then several minutes later came back and knocked on my door again. They asked to video tape the contents of my house. I let them. This is after we already determined they were unable to do the move. Then they left again.
About an hour later, my doorbell starts going off like it's an emergency. It was animal control. The officer said they just got a complaint from the moving company that I was endangering animals. He said there was a complaint of feces and urine all over the floors throughout my house and animals running all throughout the house. He said he knew that the movers called out of spite, but had to process the complaint anyway. Like a good "order follower". I told them to get a warrant.
The authorities showed up at my home with multiple police officers all geared-out to "handle" what they officer admitted was a false report of animal endangerment.
Remember, these movers took video. If this company has video that shows feces and urine "all over the floors" and animal endangerment, they would post it.
These movers could've come back with a 26 ft truck and 3 guys like I contracted for but instead weaponized the authorities to harass and intimidate me.
Now instead of moving to my new home ahead of 4th of July weekend I'm in limbo. I had to locate other movers on the spot and then deal with the authorities in NJ due to their lies.
Guess what the new movers are charging me for the same move with 26 foot truck and 3 guys? $1650, Abc123movers, LLC which I highly recommend.
Once this company gets your furniture in their truck, they've got you. I didn't let them load my belongings and this is what they did in retaliation. If I could give minus stars, I would.
DO NOT USE THIS MOVING COMPANY.
Reply to Owner: None of the conversation you listed happened. These are all fabrications just like your calls to the authorities in two states you admitted to. Produce the video that your movers took while at my house.
Also, your movers were obviously "hired out" and don't actually work for your company. I did not know that I hired a broker and a third party would show up at my home.
Any further false reports to state authorities will be added to the criminal harassment and federal FMCSA complaints currently being filed against your company. This company is in massive violation of federal regulations. They have admitted to weaponizing the authorities in two separate states to harass a customer. I screenshotted the admissions by the owner of public proof of an interstate cyber-harassment campaign and malicious false reporting across state lines.
I'm retired off the job.
Come to find out, this company has a long history of hostile interactions, inflating quotes unexpectedly, and threatening customers. Using emergency services or animal control authorities as a weapon to harass, intimidate, or retaliate against someone elevates the severity of the offenses.
On Monday, I will file a report for Harassment and Filing a Fictitious/False Report to Authorities in LEH Twp. and submit a detailed report to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) National Consumer Complaint Database at 1-888-368-7238. Since you did this in PA too, I'll file there too.
