Scheduled a move more than a month ahead for 9-10am. At 10:15 they said they were an hour late; at 1:15 they finally said they were on the way. I hired another company.

When my things were delivered, the headboard was missing a quarter, table legs and other parts were absent, boxes were crushed, and several items were damaged. More than two months later, nothing had been resolved.

It took two and a half months for my belongings to arrive. Two boxes were missing, someone else's hamper was included, and a bookshelf was badly scratched after storage.
