I organised Allied to pick up my furniture and move it interstate. The team in cairns were fantastic. The paper work stated my furniture would arrive in 10 days. Verbally I was told 2-3 weeks. It’s now 6 weeks I still do not have my furniture. Several calls to the cairns team to find out where my furniture was. To Townsville then Brisbane took 4 weeks then it’s been in Brisbane for 2 weeks. I’ve been told it will supposedly leave Brisbane to get to Sydney this week. How long it stays there is anyone guess, it then has to get to wollongong. not once did anyone contact me to inform about delays. I have had to do all the chasing of my furniture. I paid good money for a service and feel completely let down.
I would not recommend going with Allied if you are moving interstate. No communication, no regard to me needing my belongings and good money paid for a very poor service.

I relocated an 2 bedroom home internationally to Brisbane and I cannot fault the international team. My issues started on arrival to my destination.
Issues that occurred
Double charged for handyman services which did not happen on the day of move in as committed. I eventually received a refund for the double payment after multiple follow up.
Arrived after delivery window, on which I needed to follow up with the operations team as no one had contacted me about a known issue on the day. Not enough time to deliver furniture and belongings with minimal furniture put in place although unpacking of items had been paid for.
Items of value left outside my front door.
Fixtures in my house broken due to careless stacking of boxes inside my home.
Outstanding issues not rectified and on follow-up recieved no return of phone calls or texts from operations team members
Managers took no accountability for the inaction of their teams stating that they did not know about the outstanding issues. Not knowing about the issues means they have no processes in place to track the jobs they are assigned.
Still waiting for final resolution of issues 4 months in.Read more

Team guys did a good work good boxing, packaging etc..except slight paint peelings on the walls which they cost me $100 to pay landlord then at the end the extra cost appeared likely due to miscommunication or alike as i expected early notification of possible extras for which i thought i had an opportunity to manage in time..anyway not much regrets however think twice is my lessons learned. I give 4 star for the friendly staff for system its 3 star.
