Had furniture in their care for almost 6 years. When asked if I could see the furniture when I was in the area, I was told that I could not see the items. At one time we were informed that we owed 1 month but our bank showed that Coastal received and deposited the check for that month. But my main complaint is when our furniture was moved from their warehouse to NJ, a number of pieces were water stained. They didn't raise their prices for the entire time but I'm getting a lower price here in NJ. I could go on but I'm so disgusted I will just upload a few photos. The bottom line is that they didn't even admit their wrong doing from seeing the unwrapped furniture pieces in their warehouse or try to make it right. read more

Made an apointment for an estimate for a week out with Kelly and Tom was supposed to come out at a specific time. No show, no call. What a waste of time read more

I cannot express enough my satisfaction and pleasure with having chosen Coastal Van line for our recent move in Vero Beach. The team showed up on time and worked tirelessly in our move across town. A 13 hour day was not a problem for the team members. They were all delightfully courteous and friendly. They worked without a break all day and were more than accommodating to our ( Oh, we forgot about that). No task was missed, forgotten or ignored. Don't know who does the hiring at Coastal, but they do a great job in putting together their teams. If you need a diligent moving team, with committed employees who will get the job done on time and within budget, look no further than Coastal Van lines. P.S. The extra mile: A set of screws for an item was misplaced during the move (I'm sure we will find them as we unpack). One of the team members went to Home Depot AFTER the move was finished and returned to our home to bring us replacement screws so our one main TV could be set up. Who does that? Coastal Van Lines does. read more

Larry Parks' family business and closely knit staff are magic. They made my mother's jewlery, computers and televisions disappear in one hour leaving nothing but damage in their wake. When our legal representative called, CVL's receptionist "Jaime" was obnoxious. Parks eventually called back to tell her apropos of nothing that was left in the message that he didn't think any of staff had drug habits. (No one asked. No one cares.) He then he tried to implicate the Comcast tech when he realized that between the police report and legal action, he would have to come up with an alternative theory on how so many items could vanish during the 12 mile move from the Island Club to Citrus Springs. It's highly difficult to sue to moving companies as they insist clients waive away their rights to complete the move. Vero Beach is a small town, however, of prickly litigious elderly people with few hobbies. [P.S., "Jake P.", Larry's son gave himself a 5 star review. Yelp might need to follow their own policies.] read more

We had a great experience with Coastal Van Lines. They were prompt, friendly, and very careful with our belongings. In addition, they came in slightly under their time estimate and even saved us a few dollars. I highly recommend them! read more

They crushed all my wardrobes. Dropped my sofa off the truck. Damaged $1500 dollars in bathing suits, cover-ups , 2 very expensive handbags. A pair of shoes, snorkel and mask. Broke pieces of furniture. I have moved twice before hiring movers and nothing, NOTHING ever happened to my items. They took apart a table and took 3 days to put it back together banging the legs the whole time. I had to say "I realize it's not your stuff it's mine so could you please be careful." No people skills what-so-ever! I would load more pics but yelp seems to think I reached my limit! This company was the worst I have ever experienced! The worst! read more

We recommend Coastal Van Lines based on two very pleasant experiences within the past month. We recently moved to Vero and needed help unloading many heavy items on very short notice. With the influx of new residents to Florida, movers are busy; we were beyond relieved at Jake's eagerness to meet our needs and provide very prompt service. The staff we encountered were very respectful and efficient. One staff member even helped us with a novel idea on how to arrange a sectional couch that we weren't quite sure about. We respect this family business that has remained in business for over 30 years in this smallish town. read more

Nothing was lost, damaged or broken, and we have some very priceless pieces of furniture, but that is where the good news ends. We were only moving 4 miles away. During the onsite survey I pointed out to the rep that we had an 800 lb. natural wood console table and any outfit wanting to move our furniture needed a lift on the truck to handle it or not bother to take on this move. I was assured by the rep they had a lift and would send one. I also stated that I needed to have the movers pick up two cabinets from a neighbor. I was assured by the rep that they would add that to the manifest. The rep also stated they would take all our planters. The manifest had 48 pieces of furniture on it and stated it would take 7 hours to move (including the 1 hour travel time). I selected this outfit because the rep was very professional and seemed to cover everything. I chose them over two other outfits. Before move day I was able to move a lot on my own and had it down to 16 pieces of furniture I could not move. Move day. I get a courtesy call from the movers they are on their way and instruct them they need to go to the main gate on Rte 1. I get a second call from the movers that they need an access code.. hmmm? I ask which gate they are in front of. They are at the back private members gate. They show up, but I am already billed 15 minutes.... it goes down hill from here. It's hard to make this long story short. They were slow, paid too much attention to folding move blankets and joking around on the truck doing nothing, while the skies treated to downpour. I had to assist in the move by positioning rickety dollies under the 800 lb. pound wood table and help them push it up the ramp onto the truck, then help them get it off and into the new home. And guess what, they ran out of room on the truck and could not pick up the 2 cabinets from a neighbor and moaned about putting the planters on the truck. The crew manager's special relations ability is surely lacking. What were they going to do had I decided not to move anything in advance? It took them 6 hours to move 16 pieces of furniture and a dozen planters 4 miles. I had to assemble the master bed because I did not trust their skill set. When they left, I discovered in one of the guest rooms a bed unassembled and all the rails, headboard and footboard still wrapped in move blankets. Yes, I assembled that room, too. I immediately wrote a letter to the rep describing in detail what you are reading here, with constructive content to make their outfit more professional and I have not had the courtesy of a response (one week later as of this writing). Then I get a electronic survey and write the same. No response. In my letter to the rep, I stated a motto I had lived by during my 35 year career as a professional in management. "Failure of the employee is a failure of management." I had tipped each of the 3 movers as they were rushing to get out of there after everything was off the truck. I gave this outfit an opportunity to get in touch with me and make good on their promise, and because of their failure to do so I cannot and will never recommend this outfit to anyone I know. But social media is a powerful tool, because a person who reads a good experience will tell 3 people, but a person who reads a bad experience will tell... well, all their followers. read more

Numerous problems First, they low balled their estimate, missing by several hundred pounds. The estimate had confusing language which was not explained sufficiently even after I questioned it several times. I was surprised that I had to pay $2800 more on the day of delivery. The delivery people said that the estimator overcharged for boxes and he could save me money. I gave them a bigger tip, but evidently I got scammed because they did not reduce my bill. One staff member used our toilet with our permission and stuffed it up. I saw that staff person sitting on my bed reading my personal correspondence. Many items were broken including bowls, stands and various other items. A step ladder was crumpled as if it were thrown from the truck. Our Instant Pot was in its original insulated box had a huge hole in the box and a large dent in the pot. Other boxes were crumbled, my wife said they looked like an elephant sat on them. I described all of the above to the owner and he asked my patience and he would make "things right." They sent me a check for $42 claiming that I did not supply supporting evidence for my losses beyond photos and their staff viewing the items. read more

I used Coastal Van Lines in Vero Beach for a move in August, and I could not be more happy with my decision. We were able to get the move scheduled on short notice, and they went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met. The administrative staff was kind and courteous, and the movers were professional and on time. The company was incredibly accommodating from start to finish, and was able to complete our move on schedule and for a VERY reasonable price. Do yourself a favor, and use CVL for your next move! read more

I requested a quote in July & then didn't move until September. However Jake who gave me the quote kept in touch with me and was really patient in explaining . We scheduled a moving date and hurricane Irma came along so we had to postpone. It was crazy rescheduling the move but Jake was able to move me on closing date. I don't know how he did it but he did!!!!! So now he sends 3 really great movers, Ed, Ralphal & Rubin. They were personalable, friendly, careful with my things and they did their job. I was moved out in just a little over an hour. Wow!!!! When did that ever happen especially when you pay by the hour. Any way Jake is great at what he does & I believe it is a family company which mean you always get good service. If your moving do yourself a favor & give Jake Parks a call @ 772-569-6683 or 800-446-8376. He is located in Vero Beach. Thanks Guys!!!!! read more

Moving Long distances can be a hassle, and I was very relieved by Mr. Parks organization and eye for detail. New York City to Orlando Florida is a far journey and I have many items such as priceless art and rare furniture I have kept in amazing quality. This move was painless. DEPENDABLE!!! Very respectful with all of my items. I was very impressed with the professionalism. read more

They did an amazing job moving my furniture from Florida to North Carolina. Jake gave me the best price estimate and his customer service was superb. We had many antiques and fine art pieces that had to be crated. They handled everything with meticulous care and thoughtfulness . I recommend them without reservation read more

Be very wary when dealing with Coastal Moving & Storage in Vero Beach. Though they show a good track record, our experience in using them involved deceptive business practices in the quote. Shane, their experienced estimator, somehow missed the two complete rows of cartons (50+ boxes) we had already packed, putting only 3 owner packs cartons on the list. Once all our belongings were loaded on their truck and moved to their facility, we were informed the "quote" was off by about 50%. Shane was mystified how he could have been so far off and suggested we had brought more items into the house after he had been there to prepare the estimate. If you use this company I strongly suggest you only accept a BINDING estimate. It w considerable will save you considerable grief and you will be assured of the exact charges. read more

Moving is a very stressful, time consuming event in a person's life. However right from the start with a visit from Jake who was very professional and courteous with a fair estimate to the actual team of movers who loaded and off loaded the truck the experience was great. The movers were an awesome team who were on time, quick, efficient and organized. Would not hesitate to recommend this company for your moving needs. read more

Had Coastal move us from Vero Beach to Boynton Beach. Very respectful. Few minor things didn't it but that was no big deal. My bed did have damage but didn't see it till I went to bed. They were hard workers. I would recommend them. Boni & Richard read more

Jake was aggressive in his sales approach. But he over promised and under delivered! He didn't follow through on anything he promised. Its slim pickings in Florida for a quality moving company. Might have a better chance buying a used car. This Company needs a lesson on customer service! I wouldn't use this company again.. read more

The very worst moving experience of my life! The day of the move they changed the price several times...I only moved twelve miles...They damaged several pieces of furniture. This is a very accurate description of my move read more

Coastal Van Lines assisted me with a move from Sunny Isles, FL to downtown Los Angeles. I have very sensitive audio recording production equipment and this company expertly handled and crated my most valued items with precision and absolute care. Due to the logistics of moving in and out of condos with oversized items I was left to let them find the solution for the transition and they did! Thank you for everything and especially for helping place the very heavy equipment where it needed to go while we were constructing our studio. I highly recommend this company for any and all moving and storage solutions! read more
