I was apprehensive hiring a moving company to move me from Minnesota to Florida - especially with a 4+ bedroom, 3-car garage and a pole barn full of stuff. I had contacted Beltmann along with three other companies. My experiences during my military years were less then ideal. Ann, the estimator was spot-on on the amount of cubic feet (3300) and weight we where moving (27000 pounds) - basically a full trailer. One other mover quoted me 16000, and the other two did not come to my home and based their estimate on Beltmanns estimate - which I immediately found suspicious as they could not see a 140 foot driveway, or pole barn and heavy safes with stairs. They both under-quoted Beltmann by about $1000. I felt best with the service and feedback I did get from Beltmann and after reviewing their complaints on the Federal transportation sights (You can look up all complaints there). Beltmann arrived on time although some of the movers were a bit late, they took two full days to pack the truck out. The moving crew seemed friendly and professional and worked hard. (One must remember most of the guys working for the moving companies are not employees of the company but are independent and the driver pays them.) On arrival, right on time, the unpackers arrived a bit late and worked their butts off to get our house full of our junk. There was some dispute with the driver over their hourly pay, but were good to our stuff. No major breaks or losses - I did buy the insurance with the $1000 deductible to only cover the entire shipment in case of an accident, fire or theft or the rig - people do need to check with their home owners or renters insurance as some do cover things during a move - but only if the items are lost under strict circumstances. I suspect the insurance is a bit of a scam, but thankfully I didnt need it. Overall it was a great move - better then most of my moves during the military years. They even had promised to refund part of the payment if under the weight estimate and this was automatically credited back to my card. The driver was in contact with us over the road and easy to work with. Id use Beltmann again without hesitation.

Planning our move started out fine. When we got to the details of our closing dates and having the truck at the new house and city, things went south. Staff members missed the dates I sent them through email correspondence, so when I called to confirm the dates and that the truck would be at our new house on that closing date, I was told that wouldnt happen and it might take 2 weeks before our truck would arrive. I realize closing dates can change, but none of the actual process was communicated to me from the beginning. And they missed communicating our closing date with the person that schedules the trucks. Luckily we had a place to stay for free for 2 weeks until the truck arrived. The movers were great - the office personnel wasnt so great at catching all the details.

Great move! Packed us out in Minnesota and moved us to South Carolina without any problems. Showed up at both ends on time without any loss or damage to any property. Used a credit card for the move, which required a payment of 10% over the estimate which concerned me a bit, but at the end I received almost a third of my money back as a credit on my card. The refund was due to my wife doing a lot of the packing before the movers showed up and we had a giant garage sale and sold a lot of heavy stuff the weekend before the move. The estimate was based on the movers doing all the packing and moving everything they saw when they came to do the estimate 2 weeks before the actual move. Loved these guys and would use them again.

Meh. Randy Scharpen was our sales guy, personable but didnt communicate any of the specific details of the move to the day-of movers. So we had to scramble to load the second location (a craft studio). The packers overpacked many items, but underpacked a large framed chinese embroidery, which broke. A couple of floor lamps had no packing, they broke too. But the day-of guys were good. Our coordinator went on maternity leave, unexpectedly for us, so that was another curve ball when it came time to talk to Beltmann. So overall, mixed. Maybe mediocre service is par for the course - we havent moved in many years, so not much experience. The problems could have been solved with better communication and more sensible packing.

Recently used this company for a cross country move. Initially were professional but the move was a complete mess. Gave us a two week time frame when our furniture would arrive. As time elapse and last date approached, they told us not to worry. Meanwhile we had been sitting on the floor, using plastic silverware, sleeping on an air mattress for 2 weeks. Supposed arrival date came and went. They had no idea when we would get our stuff, hadnt even left the warehouse yet. Would not return my calls, left numerous voice messages with several people in the company, no calls back. Completely terrible business practives. Would NEVER use this company again. Took 3 total weeks for what shouldve been a one week move.

I used Beltmann Relocation Group to move from Andover MN to Panama City Beach FL. This was a personal move and was paid by us and not a company. The crew that loaded the truck did and excellent job and was very efficient. The crew that unloaded in FL was equally efficient. The driver was outstanding. He ran the crew and his customer service was excellent. The cost of the mover was less than I expected and very reasonable. In fact if I had moved myself and hired two people to assist in packing and unpacking It would have cost about the same. Instead they did it all and I was extremely pleased. If I move again I will use Beltmann and highly recommend them to anyone moving.

I have used Beltmann twice in the past 2 years for out of state moves. Both times were complete successes. The movers take extreme care when packing your belongings and are meticulous when wrapping furniture. They are very careful not to damage the walls or scratch the floors while moving in and out. All of the teams of packers and movers I have worked with always arrive on time, and have been very nice and well mannered. Prior to choosing Beltmann as my mover of choice, I did have 2 other estimates done. Beltmann always had the lowest bid too. I highly recommend them for your move!
