Do not use, period. They send everything out to local groups, and do not stand behind anything.
Move was way late, and items arrived damaged. Horrible customer service, and impossible to deal with. Avoid at all costs

Multiple things missing after the move, including whole boxes and the moving crew stole all of my tools. Furniture pieces broken. Tried to contact the company to make an insurance claim and never received any response. AVOID.

Took apart our furniture, packed & Loaded all our household goods only to get to our new home to see SOOOO much damage they caused to our items. Poorly packed, poorly taken apart causing screw holes in wooden items, broken glass etc!! Not only that but they documented all the damage as previously done once they packed or took it apart! Called to speak with someone about the issues & the First Lady transferred me to a Second Lady who said it’s not her job then hung up on me when I said I was transferred to her by the previous person! Horrible employees, horrible packing, horrible transit! RUN! DO NOT USE THEM EVEN IF ITS A PCS! Pack your own items!
This pic is a side table that they drilled the wrong way to take it apart, took pics of (that we never received) then claimed we did. Driver also drove from CO to GA in less than 24hrs so that speaks volumes on over working their employees!

We used Mayflower for a cross-country move in 2021. Mayflower is a part of Unigroup, as is United Van Lines. We had previously used United Van Lines for two inter-state moves with no complaints.
Our experience was very different with Mayflower. First, they damaged several nicer pieces of our furniture. Our claim was handled by Mayflowers Claims Team 9. They got a furniture repair person to look at our damaged furniture. While inspecting our pieces, he indicated that any repairs that he did would still be visible. So, with some misgiving, we awaited Mayflowers efforts to repair our furniture. Instead of any repair effort, Mayflower sent us a settlement offer with a check. The settlement offer was so low that we knew we could not repair our furniture with those proceeds.
I elected to contest their assessment. I took our Ethan Allen dining chair to a local repair facility. He did a fantastic job and I couldn’t even tell where the damage had been. So then I got a Maitland Smith hall table repaired – again with stellar results. I also got quotes from him for all our other damaged pieces. I sent these quotes and my receipts to Claims Team 9. In response, I got an email from Claims Team 9 indicating that they would not budge from their initial settlement offer. I asked for a name and contact info for their manager. At this point, Claims Team 9 ceased communications with me.
I then drafted a letter (via USPS and return receipt) to Claims Team 9 and cc’ing two executives at Unigroup. Miraculously, I received a call from a person who said she was the manager of Claims Team 9. I was able to work with her to get a adequate settlement based on real costs instead of lowball estimates. Was it a perfect outcome? No!!. But it was time to move on – get the important pieces repaired and ditch the ones not worth the repair costs. All in all the whole process took almost 2 years to bring to resolution.
My conclusion is that Unigroup services have gone downhill since our previous two moves with United. I have shared my experiences with family and friends. I know I will never use Unigroup again. There are viable alternatives.

FYI: IF YOU'RE PLANNING A MOVE...I strongly suggest you think twice before using MAYFLOWER moving services. They "lost" about 20% of our belongings (1/3rd of a semi-truck) with no explanation why. We think they gave our stuff to somebody else (and nobody spoke up), as they often have more than just YOUR stuff on the truck. It seems a pattern, as they have a whole department to handle these types of losses. It then took months to be reimbursed. Of course we didn't have photos of most things, so they would only give us a partial refund, & that was of what we could remember. A year later, we are still discovering more & more items gone in the theft. BUYER BEWARE.

We've been in touch with your "Customer Care" 30+ times. If we can't provide proof we had it, you don't do a thing. Even then you discount it because you claim it's used.
Much bigger point that you miss is that YOU STOLE OUR ITEMS! Why should we have to do *anything* to get them back?

I was considering moving quotes and the person who worked with me on the phone was incredibly rude and actually hung up on me as I was asking questions about the process. Attitude does not build business.

We used Mayflower in October 2023 for our household move from Sharon, New Hampshire to St Louis, Missouri. We have moved cross country four times in the last 7 years and have to say that this was the best move we’ve ever experienced. Mayflower personnel were professional, courteous and careful with all of our belongings. Our driver, Nick was fantastic. This was our only move with ZERO damage, our goods showed up on time and the people who loaded and unloaded were amazing. A big JOB WELL DONE to our Mayflower team. Thank you!!!!

Always a great experience. I’ve used them for 10 years for multiple moves. Cordial staff and hard working movers.

I contracted with Mayflower to move my household from north Iowa to central Alabama. They had a crew pack roughly half my items including high value item. 99% arrived undamaged. But a set of bed rails for my antique brass bed did not get on the trailer at the origin and a 6' tall hand carved wood bear and a live edge oak bench apparently jumped off the trailer in Nashville when they were mid load of my belongings.How does that happen?I am not happy and people who say they will call back with answers never do. This squeaky wheel will keep squeaking until I get my things. I gave Mayflower nearly $16,500. There will be a sizeable claim if I do not get my irreplaceable items.

The Mayflower Moving Co moved my military families entire household contents. Their truck caught on fire (brakes overheated so they said. Plus items that should of not burned up were missing from the truck!!!) causing everything my family owned for 30 years to be completely destroyed. We purchased their additional insurance and they wouldn’t honor the insurance because they claimed we had to pay for the COD for delivery! There was nothing to deliver! They destroyed every memory and item we owned! I was left with an empty house for a family of 5. Do not ever use this company to move your items!!!

Mayflower damaged or destroyed most of my possessions. Many antiques and collectables that were destroyed were one of a kind. Insurance covered less than one third of damage. We list tens of thousands of dollars using Mayflower.

We moved for Phoenix to Tennessee we thought since it was a trusted moving company we would use themThey were the most expensive. Let's just say it was the worst experience ever. They damaged all of our brand new furniture and our washer and dryer that weren't even 1 year old. We had over 4500 in damaged items. They sent someone out to check our stuff and then sent a check for $1500 which doesn't even cover the damaged items. We even had the extra insurance that covers 30,000. We had to spend extra time in the hotel due to their brakes that supposedly went out. Please don't use them for moving they are the worst company ever.
