ASAP Vanlines

A more extended list of what is missing and Julie G. can probably sympathize with me:
1. a box with «Electronics» marked on the box with 1. PS3 2. XBox 360 3. Multiple wires for both XBox and television
2. Center speaker for Bose speakers
3. A Dyson Animal (who steals a vacuum???)
4. A Kitchen-​Aid mixer
5. Box of 200+ DVD’s which includes collector’s edition box sets
6. HD Receiver
7. HD DVD (bought before the PS3)
SInce the delivery was a full 2 weeks over what was projected, I can only imagine what they violated in order to get their paws on my memories, my unmentionables, and valuables. I hope they get banned.

DO NOT use these people.
Here is the situation:
ASAP first quoted me $ 1200 to move my apartment from Chicago to San Francisco. It ended up being more than twice that. Be aware that on their quotes, they are probably low balling in order to get your business. That was annoying but wasn’t too surprising. I just went with it because I didn’t have time to find any other movers.
They were ok about wrapping my stuff, but refused to wrap some of it due to liability issues. In fact, they refused to wrap my flat screen tv. Thought that was pretty odd but again, I was stuck.
Fast forward one week later to San Francisco. All my stuff arrives EXCEPT my tv. my beautiful 50 inch flat screen tv that is only insured for weight. Daily calls to ASAP were not answered for over a week. I called dispatch as well as the sales person I had originally dealt with. Nothing.
Over a week later, ASAP is saying they have my tv in their warehouse and would fedex it. Daily phone calls to ASAP look for a tracking number went unanswered. Over a week later, they call and say that fedex wouldn’t take the tv and that they would send it on the next truck to San Francisco. However, over a week later, ASAP hasn’t given me any information on where my tv is. Not the number of the driver, not a date when my tv will arrive, nothing.
I can only hypothesize, but it certainly seems to me that they have stolen my tv. The worst part is that they will only insure it for weight, so its not insured for anywhere near the full value by ASAP.
Key takeaways from this experience:
1) Don’t use ASAP. Moving companies are shady in general, but these guys take the cake.
2) Insure valuables that are lightweight
