To give a broader view of the moving process for me: My things were put into storage in FL and at some point were picked up by a different subcontracted carrier ( who was great and did not charge nothing more). They made their way to Northern CA about 1.5- 2weeks later, with delivery on a Sunday evening. The truck that delivered my things was huge and had many other people’s stuff on it—all well sectioned off. They had to park in a Walmart parking lot and rent a UHaul to transport my stuff to the apartment I’d rented, as the truck was too large to make the turns and fit in the provided parking. The delivery guys were really kind and quick. It took about 3-4 hours to unload my things and bring them up to the 3rd floor. A few boxes and a couple of pieces of furniture did arrive damaged.
If your things arrive damaged, it is important to take pictures of the outside of the boxes to show how they were damaged. I did not do this and had discarded the boxes, which means the damage reimbursement is less. The only frustrating aspect of the move was how long it took for the damage reimbursement check to arrive. Between that and some things arriving damaged, I changed the star rating from 5 stars to 4 stars. The process started at the end of April, and the reimbursement details were finally sent to their accounting department in early April. It is nearly May, and I was still waiting, even though I reached out last week. I’d love to finally close the door on this move.
UPDATE - The check finally arrived on May 25. So glad to finally close this chapter!
