I am a military member that contracted with Hawk Vanlines to move my household goods in the Summer of 2009. The contract was for just over $4000. The driver showed up a day late and began the scam.
After showing up, the driver claimed that I had a lot more weight then I intially stated and charged me an additional $8000 for the weight and packing materials. Despite my numerous requests for a re-weigh they showed up at my house unannounced on a Sunday and stated that I either pay for my household goods or they would take them away until I paid. They broke numerous items and even dropped off several boxes that were not mine. After initially stating that they would pay for the broken items, they now refuse to take my phone calls or emails. Do not use these criminals.
