I needed to have my vehicle transported across the country due to an urgent move, because my husband was ill.
After searching many companies and receiving lots of quotes, I chose WCECE because of two reasons.
1. They were the only company that accepted payment with credit card up front, not Cash On Delivery COD.
2. They were very responsive and I was provided information consistantly, even though it was not easy to understand the process, I had to be patient, but they were helpful whenever I called to ask.
What was dissatisfying was the cost, their price was $400 to 500 more than all other quotes. This business is a crap shoot. You must read reviews and go with your gut instincts. I had a very expensive vehicle (meaning a newer Honda Pilot) that was very important in the function of my life and I feared it becoming damaged in transit. I'm pleased that the timeline that was given to me in my scheduled pick-up happened within that time and it arrived safely to my designated person who received it - on time. A slight scratch is what was new, but sometimes it's the price you pay in having your vehicle on a huge vehicle carrier through all types of weather and movement.
My vehicle was transported in summer. The vehicle was picked up a couple blocks away from my house because I lived in a condo complex with a very tight parking lot. The vehicle was dropped off on the street where I was moving to, removed from the transporter and drivin to a parking spot outside my new home. A vehicle inspection was done with my receiving person and the driver, and a bill of laden was signed indicating the new scratch and the keys were handed over to my receiving person.
Over all, I felt thankful for the reviews people left for this company so I could find some peace (as little as it was - because no one really likes giving their personal vehicle to someone else and trusting them) in getting my car to it's new home in a very concerning time in our life.
I have expressed to WCECE that I believe their pricing was very high in comparison to the other quotes. I think I understand it has a lot to do with getting the vehicle picked up quicker by a carrier transporter - I gather that they will come get your vehicle sooner, rather than place someone elses vehicle on their truck if they paid less. Like everything, there should be more standard pricing and not a game. It's very hard to place a pick-up date and the date have a 2-5 day window range before you get picked up.
Good luck to those that need this service. Read all reviews for every company you are considering. Look up the BBB and check of everything. I would use this company again if I ever needed their services again, which I hope I never do need them. Our move was very stressful, this was only one facet - but it was the best we could have expected. read less

Also, Kelly in sales was super nice and personable over the phone. She made me feel comfortable right away.
This company also takes their reputation very seriously and will do whatever is possible to make sure you're happy and the move is a success (5 star success). John in customer care was wonderful and helped me with all my concerns along the way.
The packing crew did such a great job that there was zero damage to any of the furniture they packed which I think is AMAZING!! I've had local moves where at least something gets messed up a little bit. The drop off crew was just as good and worked really hard to get everything done as quick as they could. They even carried my giant asian cabinets up the stairs since they wouldn't fit in the elevator. Very hard workers!!
This company is AMAZING and if you want to make sure your possessions make it to you in perfect condition I highly recommend them!! read less

Prior to the day of loading the truck they contacted me to confirm the day they would arrive and gave me a window of time of arrival. On the day of pickup they called a hour in advance to alert me that they were on their way. When the men arrived they were courteous and professional. They were extremely thorough in wrapping all my furniture and mirrors and then loaded my items on their truck with care. I felt they absolutely knew what they were doing which made me feel confident that they would take care of my possessions. As my items were being transported the company texted me daily to alert me of the status of the truck. A representative also called me on a daily basis to see if I had any questions or concerns. I did have a concern once about the delivery date because I felt there was some confusion among the delivery people and this was immediately addressed and resolved. My items were delivered at the very beginning of my delivery window, which was a pleasant and unexpected surprise. The men who unloaded my things in the Bay area were just as courteous and professional as the men who helped me at my place in Baltimore. I found everything to be intact and in good condition upon delivery. I have communicated with the company several times since my move has been completed and they have continued to be helpful and professional. I would definitely recommend entrusting ECWC Express to transport your household cross country. You are in good hands. read less

They were 20% more expensive than other transportes, but I trusted them, and for good reason. They picked up and delivered as promised and it only took 5 days. They do say that they use their own transporters 90% of the time. According my following research, that's doesn't seem to be the case. They work as a broker, but they have great partners. I'm having a second car moved soon, and I'll use them again. read less

The entire process, from getting my initial quote (and many revisions of it) with Luke (who is the most responsive and attentive moving specialist, plus super helpful in recommendations of how to do this), to the day the three guys (Diego, Ralphie and Chris) picked up my stuff, it was an excellent experience. Moving my entire life across country is incredibly stressful - Luke and co smoothed out the process for me, greatly. I will update the review when my stuff is delivered (mid-April). But for now, 100% I'd recommend this crew if you're doing a Long Distance move. read less

Excellent pricing and super fast delivery. In fact I was so surprised as to how they could deliver my car within 3 days for the amount of distance. The driver did a VERY thorough inspect on pick up and marked even really small scratches and dents. I would highly recommend these guys. read less

Some movers wanted upwards of $13,000 to move us. It was actually my dad who found West Coast East Coast and my wife and I called one day to try and get a quote.

We spoke with Sarah Davis who was the most helpful. She was our contact throughout and was the definition of honesty, responsiveness and helpfulness. She started the entire process by issuing us a quote based on the items we were bringing. Not by weight. Not be size. Just the inventory list. If we stick to the inventory list, then it is a guaranteed price. When all was said and done we had everything we wanted to being quoted for less than $3500 total; including insurance. We booked then and there and gave a credit card to guarantee our cost.

We went through a few revisions of the inventory list but was assured that the price quoted was the price quoted. We wouldn't be charged more the day of the move or delivery.

Lo and behold moving had arrived and we were pleasantly surprised to find the movers were professional, courteous, fast and careful. They packed everything we had and loaded it up in about an hour and a half. Fast forward to the move in date. We received our items 5 business days after the start of our guaranteed delivery window (within 14 business days of the first date the delivery can be accepted). And we received ALL of our items. All in perfect condition. And not a single additional charge or hidden cost. We even got text updates each day of where our stuff was once loaded on the truck to get here.

If you are planning a move and want the stress removed, contact WCEC Express. read less

We moved our entire home from San Francisco to New York City last month. The truck arrived in NY as promised and I have to say the crew on both end did a fantastic job. Prompt, effective and very professional are the words to describe these guys' work! Everything arrived in NYC was in its original shape, nothing was damaged or even scratched. We were very satisfied with these guys!
And yes, we would definitely use them again for the future moving needs and we would recommend WCECE to our friends and people who are planing to move. read less

Indeed, everything was smooth and carefree. They provided me a reasonable quote and no hidden fees. Mark, who helped me with the cost estimate, e-contract, and insurance, is friendly and responsive. The movers in Chicago wrapped, labelled, grouped my luggage in an organized way, and the movers in LA unpacked my stuff in a lightening speed.

The time spent in logistic is okay. I asked to initiate the delivery on Sep 20th, and my stuff arrived on Sep 26th. read less

We moved a studio apartment plus a large storage unit in San Francisco into a 2 bedroom apartment in Virginia. We paid for East Coast West Coast to pack all of our belongings for us.

The quote process was quick and easy and ended up being nearly what we were charged in the end -- despite my underestimating how much stuff was in the storage unit! When the team discovered the extra stuff, they handled it very professionally and it was so easy and painless to agree to the additional charges -- they were clearly being very reasonable and charging only what was necessary to accommodate the extra boxes. Clearly my fault completely and they were really nice about it.

I had gotten about 5 quotes for this move and East Coast West Coast was easily the cheapest quote. (I will say -- no quotes were actually 'cheap' -- but a few were just outrageous.) Sometimes, you get what you pay for, but in this case, East Coast West Coast wasn't just the most reasonable price -- they also provided a very high quality service.

The delivery arrived to us in Virginia on the earlier end of the window East Coast West Coast had provided and only one small side table was damaged. The claims department was so kind about resolving that and we did not end up out of pocket any money at all to repair the damage. The movers reassembled a seriously complicated bed for us (reassembly included! yeah!) in about 20 minutes.

On both ends, the crews were easygoing, friendly, and professional. They arrived on time and were FAST.

This is a really great company. I highly recommend them for your cross country moves. read less

I then came across East Coast West Coast and made a booking with them. I am very happy to say that the driver Vlad was on time in fact on the dot at 11 am and arrived on time the day he said that he would. The whole team including Hank was very easy and friendly to work with. All in all I was extremely satisfied with the service. read less

I was sold by the guaranteed quote, which only changes if what you're shipping changes--be specific when you list out what you need moved and you'll be fine. The movers were late on both ends, but not egregiously so--especially considering Southern California traffic. Despite the late hour (the movers arrived around 8 PM on both ends) they were courteous, thorough, and efficient. I didn't get the sense that they just wanted to finish the job and get home. Instead of being angry about my three-month-old puppy yapping at them while they worked, the movers in Cleveland actually played with him while I did the paperwork. The only issue I had with my move was that I had a small (maybe 30") TV that broke--it was disassembled incorrectly--everything else came through the cross-country move fine! I wasn't going to make an issue of the TV, but the company followed up with me and gave me the cash I needed to replace the TV, no questions asked. So, great service all the way around. I would definitely use West Coast East Coast Express again. read less

The one I've been after is the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. I really like how they made them in the 60's. These cars aren't that expensive but finding one in good shape is near impossible.A friend texted me one day with a link to one in Hampton, Maryland that was in amazing condition. I emailed the owner. The email turned into a phone call a day later.Fast forward to a paypal transaction and then and then delivery of the car from this company. I paid the extra price to have shipped in a covered truck. It looked beautiful when it arrived. Omg this was a dream come. Thank you times 100 for getting it to me read less

I even needed to contrast rates and different moving companies so I was somewhat reluctant at first. The front desk manager I talked with said to get back to them whenever I want with no pressure. They appeared to be truly flexible!

2) My appt was at 10 AM, they called me at around 9:15 AM and said they were leaving their warehouse. Arrived even 10 minutes earlier

3) With each move, I anticipate a little harm to furniture; particularly since my new residence was really tight. I have not noticed even a ding on my furniture. Nothing excessively insane by any means, they took care of my furniture with care.

4) Extremely persevering. David and Chris were moving quick and never eased up! My employment kept going ~ 5 hours, I was impressed!!

5) sadly my love seat didn't make it into my new residence since it was too huge to fit through an entryway. They offered to take it to their stockroom however my homeowner was sufficiently thoughtful to make room. In any case, I'm super appreciative for the choice. Likewise, after they were done, I understood I may be in an ideal situation having it wrapped and put it to the storage room... They returned and wrapped it!

All in all, my move was great and I'm super appreciative for West Coast East Coast Movers diligent work and complete. They transformed stressful day into a breeze! Super grateful! Exceptional thanks to David, this person really knows what he's doing! read less
