    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    We hired this company to move our home goods as we were relocating from ***** *********** ** ** ****** **. Initially, the belongings were to be pick up from our storage unit the third week of Oct., 2021 but they were late and it was picked up the following week. I communicated to them that our items would be delivered to a storage facility and never once did anyone mention that any compensation due to late delivery would not honored because of the final destination of our items. We were told that we would receive our items DELIVERED to our storage unit in ** by 11/4. The items didn't show up until 11/23. During this process we were continually told that we would be reimbursed $100 every day that the delivery was late. When we received the delivery we were instructed to file a complaint to be reimbursed for the $1900. I received an email that said the "tariff" does not allow late delivery compensation to be paid on a shipment delivering to storage facility and they have denied our claim. I am completed confused as none of the people that handled my delivery from the onset knew anything about this stipulation. What makes a difference WHERE my belongings are delivered as a late delivery is a late delivery?
