What Colonial Customers Have to Say

“I used colonial Van lines 5/31/24 for my move from Illinois to Michigan. Every person I dealt with was knowledgeable, helpful and courteous — from booking to delivery. ... The movers were extremely careful, strong and meticulous about the safety of my items in wrapping and transport. I have recommended to 2 friends already and would use them again.”

Lorrie C

“My experience with Colonial Van Lines was outstanding. The 2 drivers who came to move my belongings from Georgia to New Jersey were efficient, polite, and hardworking. They took extra care wrapping and moving everything I had not boxed. They covered my hardwood floors to prevent scratches and scarring. They were in contact with me. They also took extra care unloading. I am happy I chose Colonial Van Lines. The cost was reasonable. I highly recommend this company.”

Juanita Taylor

“Barbara, my Coordinator, was there for me any time I contacted her. It was wonderful to have the name and phone number of a person who always knew facts, locations, and every other detail of my moving process. ... Eduardo and two teammates delivered my furniture and boxes on time, all in perfect condition. The men were upbeat and pleasant, definitely de-stressing the day. I’ve moved a number of times in my long life. Colonial Van Lines is absolutely the best.”
