NIGHTMARE ? This was the worst moving experience I have had.When I got a quote, I was told since I was one of the first people to be booked on my truck, I would be given ""customizable"" delivery dates -- a 5 day window instead of 10-14 day window. My contract showed that pick up was to be on June 22/23 and delivery between June 25-29.
Friday, 6/17, someone called saying there was going to be a truck coming through OKC on Mon, 6/20. I was asked if there was ""any way"" that I could have my things picked up 2-3 days EARLY. I took 6/20 off work, and I booked a hotel room for 2 nights since I still had to be in OKC for work.
No one came on Monday, June 20; I also never received a call explaining why they were not there to pick up my things. I called AVL, who had absolutely no explanation as to why my pick up did not happen. They claimed to call the driver, but ""could not get him to answer his phone""...this went on all afternoon.
Tuesday, June 21: Still NO explanation as to why my pick up did not happen. I spent HOURS on hold with customer service with absolutely no responses or explanations on Monday,; Tuesday I called my sales rep to help get me answers. After several hours, I received a call saying my pick up would be between 3:30-4:30 pm on Tues, 6/21. At 4:30pm, no one had arrived. I made phone calls and sent text messages to the driver ? no answers. The driver called at 9pm saying that he was still over 3 hours away from OKC and would be there at 6am on Wed, 6/22.
6/22: After swearing that they would be at my house at 6am, the driver/van did not show up until 6:40am. To make matters worse, it was one of the most unprofessional situations I had seen. The driver had an adult assistant, as well as two CHILDREN, ages 10 and 11, who helped them carry boxes and load the truck.
During my pick up, I asked the driver when he thought my things would be delivered in Florida. He did not know about the delivery date; when I told him about my contract, he laughed and said the company ""lied to me"" about customizable dates.
Thurs 6/23: I received a voicemail ""Confirming"" my delivery for 6/29. He also said, "" if there are any changes, we will call you.""
I made my way to FL. On 6/28, one day prior to my CONFIRMED delivery date, I had not received any calls with a time frame for my delivery the next day. I made 23 calls to customer service, and at no point was I told where the driver was. After spending the majority of the day on the phone, someone called at 7pm and said my delivery would most likely now be on Friday, July 1.
Thurs 6/30 - Sat 7/1 -- A constant run around of lies, lack of answers, confusion. Again, the driver ""wasn't answering his phone"", I was never told where the driver was, and my delivery date somehow would get bumped by ""a few hours"" to ""the next day"" on a daily basis. Constant excuses--- running out of gas may delay things by 3-4 hours, but not 4 DAYS past my ""customizable"" dates of 6/25-29. Over these days, I cal
