70We had an international move, and everything was fine—[Name remove dby Sirelo] was very kind and helpful—until we signed the contract (which you absolutely MUST READ, because in the fine print it states that VAT is NOT included in the price). After that, a complete disaster began!
Mr. [Name removed by Sirelo] estimated that such a move would require 4 workers and 5 hours (which sounded reasonable, since we had already moved within Zurich and to Zurich, and everything took about 4 hours). However, only 3 workers showed up, the 4th was late, and the whole process ended up taking more than 9 hours!
We have two small children, and the entire operation felt completely inefficient and far too slow.
It also turned out that Alberto Umzug hired a third party for the international transport (which we were NOT informed about until we met the driver during loading). The truck used for transport was not the one we had agreed on with Mr. [Name removed by Sirelo] (a hard-shell truck), but instead a trailer with a tarp.
The delivery of our belongings (again, an international move) was delayed by a total of 5 days! For 5 days, [Name removed by Sirelo] could not tell us where the truck was, where our belongings were, or when they would arrive! There was so much misinformation, evasion, and ignoring of phone calls that we decided to take legal action for everything we went through.
In the end, when the truck finally arrived, we were blackmailed into paying the remaining 50%, otherwise they would not deliver our belongings!
As the final blow—some of our items were severely damaged (a mattress was dirty due to inadequate protection and torn, a chair was broken, and a lot of glass kitchenware was damaged and shattered). Worst of all, THEY DID NOT DELIVER ALL OF OUR ITEMS!
Our son’s bicycle and scooter were never delivered, even though they were on the customs list and handed over to them! To this day, they have not told us WHERE these items are, and they have STILL NOT ACTIVATED the insurance for the damaged items—in fact, they are completely ignoring our questions!
We chose them because they claimed to offer high insurance coverage for belongings—but in reality, they remain silent!
We made a terrible mistake by hiring Alberto for this move—but no one else has to.Read more
On the day of the move, I was not fully ready. I appreciated that the team was willing to help with extra packing, and I was prepared to pay for additional hours, as that felt fair.
However, while the packing was fast, it was not careful or professional. Items were handled roughly, and some were not protected properly. For example, my paintings were transported only with blankets rather than proper packing.
The main problems started when I was strongly encouraged to add an additional disposal service for items I was not taking. It was presented as a helpful and cost effective option, so I agreed and trusted they were prepared to deliver it smoothly. In my experience, the added scope was not planned well and led to delays, multiple trips, and a chaotic process.
The final cost ended up much higher than the original move quote. I was also uncomfortable with how payment was handled, with strong pressure late at night to pay immediately.
Practical advice to others: confirm in writing what is included and excluded, agree pricing for any extras before work starts, and be very cautious about changing the scope on the day. In my case, the total cost ended up around 3.5 times my original budget, and the company attributed this to the scope change.
Based on my experience, I would not recommend this company.Read more
