I've had bad experiences with both Two Men and a Truck and All My Sons
since I've been in Raleigh.  I can't remember which company did which of
these things, but:

1) One mover showed up on the wrong day (ie it was 10am, they were
supposed to be there at 9, I called and they said "Oh, we've got you down
for tomorrow."  They eventually got a truck to me by around noon).  The
date had been confirmed at least once from the time I made the
appointment.

2) The other one quoted me a good rate from a Morrisville-to-Fuquay move,
say around $300.  The week before the move, they called me up and said "We
just realized that it's too far away to qualify as a local move, so
instead of $300, it'll now be $800."  I told them no thanks for the bait
and switch, and had to scramble to get a U-Haul.

I think All My Sons was the first one and Two Men was the second, but time
has clouded my memory.

Anyway, that's my experience with moving in the Triangle.  I think I'm
sticking with U-Haul from now on.  :-)
