Jason proved to be very reliable

Jason proved to be very reliable. They delivered my vehicle earlier than expected and in excellent condition. The driver was professional and trustworthy, and I felt confident throughout the delivery. In the end, they showed they can be counted on, and I’d recommend them for safe and reliable vehicle transport.

Bruno's First Cross Country Trip

If you are looking for a service that blends reliability, professionalism, and true compassion for animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Nam Chiot Enterprise. They turned what felt like an impossible situation into a smooth and stress-free experience.
Thank you, Nam Chiot Enterprise, for taking such wonderful care of Bruno!

Pleasantly surprised

I have to admit, I was a little nervous at first about using a website I had never heard of before, but I was pleasantly surprised and impressed! Not only was the website easy to use, I started receiving quotes for the transport of our dog across the country immediately! It was easy to respond to the people putting their bids in and we eventually found the perfect fit for our situation. Check out was easy as well!

Susan Frisque of Come Bye Transport…

Susan Frisque of Come Bye Transport provided an excellent experience transporting my husky and blue heeler from Wasington state to Oh. She was very organized and knowledgeable. She was also very understanding and accommodating when there was a blip with the drop off time. If you need to transport your pets, rest assured they will be in good hands with Susan.

What a great company

What a great company. It was so easy to post my pet transport request and I received a lot of responses immediately. It was difficult making a choice but I settled on one who transported my cat safely and quickly across the US from Az to CT. Would highly recommend this company in your search.

Excellent Experience with CitizenShipper


I recently used CitizenShipper to arrange transport for my puppy from Washington to Nevada, and I couldn’t be happier.

The website was straightforward and easy to navigate. I quickly received several quotes, which gave me the flexibility to choose the best fit. Communication on the platform was clear and smooth, making the process stress-free.

The driver I chose through CitizenShipper, Victoria, was amazing — she was kind, professional, and kept my puppy safe and happy throughout the entire journey. It really showed me the quality of drivers available on the platform.

Overall, CitizenShipper gave me peace of mind and confidence in an experience that could have been stressful. I’ll definitely be using this service again and would highly recommend it to anyone needing safe and reliable transport.

Review for Patriot Military Moving…

Review for Patriot Military Moving Company

I recently purchased a Piaggio MP3 three-wheel motor scooter and hired Patriot Military Moving Company to transport it from Rehoboth, MA to Washington State. I chose them because I wanted to support a company run by former service members, expecting integrity, accountability, and professionalism. Unfortunately, my experience was the exact opposite.

The delivery was more than three weeks late. I live between Vancouver, BC and Bellingham, WA, and I made sure to communicate my availability. Despite that, the representative I dealt with—Jennifer Velazquez—was consistently rude and unprofessional. Every email reply I received was dismissive and vague, and I was never given a firm delivery date. Excuses piled up: at one point they even sent me a photo of a blown trailer tire to explain yet another two-week delay.

When they finally promised a Sunday delivery, I waited all day with no call and no truck. Then it was pushed to Monday, then Tuesday—the busiest day of my work week. Jeanine even admitted they had broken one of my front lights and offered to replace it, but she insisted my scooter already had scratches because it was “10 years old.” That scooter was in mint condition when I bought it. At that point I suspected it had been dropped.

The delivery truck finally arrived Tuesday at 2:15 PM—over two hours later than promised. Under pressure to get back to work, I signed the papers. Only afterward did I discover additional damage: scratches, paint peeling, a broken left deflector, and a broken right mirror bracket—repairs that will cost me around $300.

The seller I purchased the scooter from also confirmed that Patriot Military Moving has a bad reputation and said he plans to report them as well.

In short:

Delivery was 3+ weeks late.

Communication was rude and unprofessional.

The company damaged my vehicle and tried to blame “age and scratches.”

Final delivery was inconvenient, delayed, and careless.

I strongly recommend that you stay away from this company. It was one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had, and I regret entrusting them with my property.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with Patriot Military Moving Company. Based on the details shared, it isn’t clear that this shipment took place through the CitizenShipper platform.

CitizenShipper is a marketplace that connects customers with independent transport providers, and while we actively monitor drivers who operate through our site, we cannot directly oversee companies outside our platform. If this move did occur through CitizenShipper, we encourage you to reach out to our support team with your booking details so we can review the situation and provide assistance.

Either way, we're sorry for the challenges you faced and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Be aware

Be aware! It is extremely important for potential customers who use reviews on this site to make informed decisions to understand that CitizenShipper censors and removes negative reviews (even if they are honest/accurate and adhere to their policies…which they lied about in response to this honest review). Additionally, although they provide background checks, etc. on shippers, they claim not to have any real control over who is on their website. They also claim to not have any responsibility or ability to hold shippers accountable to providing refunds to customers. This means you are at the mercy of the shipper to refund your money, if at all, even if the shipper canceled on you. As you can imagine, this opens a large door for painfully delayed refunds as well as scammers to walk through completely unregulated. They allow shippers who cancel at the last minute and have a history of doing so, to continue operating on the platform regardless of the hardship and fees they create for customers.

I had an issue where I chose a shipper, who at the time had no negative reviews (so I thought), and placed a deposit in advance with them. On the scheduled day of pickup, they claimed to have car issues less than an hour before they were to pick up my animal. Then, they stopped responding to my texts. For nearly a week the shipper proceeded to ignore both my attempts and (supposedly) the attempts of CitizenShipper to obtain a refund for the deposit I placed. Again, CitizenShipper will not refund a driver fee, only the booking fee (which is a site credit). In order to avoid losing additional money, I was forced to book again through the site, while still not having a refund of my deposit. The last minute booking was of course higher for a reputable shipper.

I was told by CitizenShipper they received a few excuses from the shipper as to why my money was not immediately refunded. Then, they too were not able to reach the shipper at all. During this time **I reviewed CitizenShipper’s review policies and wrote a simple yet honest review**, to hopefully help others avoid the same heartache. It stated only the facts: the driver had cancelled last minute, and at that time I did not receive a refund— all true and accurate and in NO way negative or disparaging/ in violation of their policies. I saw other honest/negative reviews on this shipper show up as well at that time.

Once the shipper finally resurfaced nearly a week later, they claimed CitizenShipper lied and knew the entire time as to why I hadn’t received a refund. Thankfully I eventually received my money, but not before incurring additional expenses and hardship due to the last minute cancellation and refusal of immediate refund by the shipper.

Later, Citizenshipper informed me via email that my honest review was being reviewed for removal. I stated I would be willing to update my review with the current information, but that my review was accurate. MY REVIEW COMPLIED WITH THEIR POLICIES. To my surprise, when I logged in to my account, I saw a response from the shipper (who now had over a 26% cancellation rate) to my review which stated CitizenShipper knew all along why I had not received an immediate refund, and that they had attempted multiple times to refund my money with no success. To my knowledge neither of these claims in the shipper’s response were accurate, but somehow allowed to be shown to potential customers. I did not receive any communication from the shipper until they reached out nearly a week later regarding a refund, and again, was told by CitizenShipper that the shipper had stopped communicating.

My review on their website was censored, and from what I can tell has been removed. I see the other negative customer reviews on this shipper’s profile have also since been removed. I will be happy to update this review if any of that changes.

I was notified by CitizenShipper they would not remove this shipper from their platform, so they are likely still out there doing the same to other customers.

Regardless of what CitizenShipper states in response to this review to support their reputation, these are my honest experiences. Everything stated in this review can be supported by emails and text messages, and is in no way exaggerated or meant to be disparaging. I have nothing to gain from a dishonest review, and only wish I had seen honest reviews such as mine prior to using the site. CitizenShipper has a duty to their customers to be transparent. *Censoring reviews does not allow this.* If they aren’t going to be responsible for lost shipper fees, there needs to be more stringent regulation on the shippers who operate on the platform, including penalties for such things as high cancellation rates.

Thank you to CitizenShipper for proving my point and validating why I wrote this review :).

Lei,

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience. Our goal at CitizenShipper is to provide a safe, transparent way to connect with reliable drivers, and we’re disappointed this shipment did not go smoothly.

For context, we never remove reviews simply because they are negative. We do have a dispute process and may temporarily hide a review while investigating, but our goal is always accuracy and fairness for both customers and drivers. As part of the dispute process, a review may be partially or fully removed if it's proven to contain false information, inappropriate language, or violates our review guidelines

Booking fees are handled by CitizenShipper and are refundable under certain circumstances. Deposits paid directly to drivers are not held by us, but when issues arise, we step in to contact the driver and support customers through the process. We also monitor driver performance closely, and repeated cancellations or misconduct can result in suspension or removal.

While your driver did ultimately issue a refund, we understand the delay was frustrating. Your thoughts are important, and we are continuously working to strengthen accountability to better protect our customers.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we're here to support you if there's anything else we can do to help.

Best,

Wonderful experience …

The driver was incredibly caring and friendly. Made sure that my daughter’s cat was comfortable and sent pictures from the road trip. Received plenty of updates and I could tell all the instructions for care were being followed. I lastly received a video of my daughter receiving her cat. That was absolutely beautiful and above and beyond.

Tail-wagging, stress-free move

Moved my jittery dachshund Lola from LA to Austin with Citizenshipper and was floored by how gentle the driver, Marco, was—he FaceTimed me at every pit stop like promised. Lola trotted out tail wagging, still wearing the bandana he tucked in her crate. The app tracked everything; the price was honest. Five stars is selling these folks short.
