I recently used ESTES to transport a small piano from Idaho to Texas. I put in on a pallet and secured it before they picked it up. Overall, they did a fantastic job. The package made it pretty quickly and their staff were easy to work with. They called for the pick up and drop off and were right on Read more ....

I have to say I have delt with so many customer service reps over the years and my experience with Barbara Bollo was one of the very best I have had.

Never use this company. They were supposed to ship me a spin bike from Seattle to San Francisco - somehow it ended up in Chicago. It takes some incredibly incompetent staff and some serious lack of security to send a package that size to the other side of the country.
When it finally did arrive in San Francisco I tried to Read more ....

Terrible shipping company. I waited home all day for my shipment and called them periodically so I wouldn't miss them. They came to my house, claimed that they knocked and left. I was home the whole time. My car was in the driveway and the garage was open. There is no way they rang the doorbell Read more ....

I purchased a gun safe from Costco.com. I received a tracking number that did not work. Costco sent me a number that worked, as it got me to an Estes site that gave some limited information (item waiting to be picked up in Riverside, CA) but was missing other information (cannot determine delivery date). I contacted Estes Read more ....

Worst shipping company I've ever dealt with.... I've shipped cars, motorcycles, and like this time, rims and tires, MANY times.... But never through Estes.... Apparently they have a station close to the rim wholesaler in CA because he suggested them and said it would only be a day or so longer than if we used Fed-Ex or UPS or the Read more ....
