One Time Pickup Question

I'm shipping a large painting that won't fit in my car, so I've packaged it up, and I need to schedule a pickup for this Monday.

Should I schedule it so that my package is ready for pick up at noon until nighttime, and rush to get my stuff done before noon?
I don't mind paying extra, but I don't want to miss my other appointment. I need the pickup done on Monday, but there's no rush as to when the package arrives.
Out of the two things, the package is the more important.
Which should I choose? I'm leaning toward the morning, but if they're super late, I'll be screwed. But I can have a larger window at night, but I don't want to risk it not getting picked up.
Hello I was going to use the one time pickup my computers and I was curious how the one time pick up works. Will I need to box the item for them or will they be able to pack the item? The items are heavy and I am not able to get them to a facility for packaging myself. I was also curious if I was able to select the shipping options or if it is just treated as normal mail.
