I only wish I read the reviews, so easily found on my search, prior to hiring Father & Son of Newark NJ / New York to move into a 5 room apt - 3 of which are bedrooms. Everything I read in the prior posts happened to me too!
The job cost more than double then the price quoted, my furniture was held hostage, I helped load and had 3 more people come to assist with the unload!
Personnel are very personable and give you the distinct impression they are stand-up, honest folks - this couldn't be further from the truth!!! Appraiser arrived with her arm in a sling - stating her adult son knocked her down - for all I know this is part of the scam.
Damage - lots and lots of damage from my grandmother's table, to my mother's secretary, my grill - to the knob on a lamp! The only things that weren't damage were the things I packed myself!!!
The movers didn't have tools and I was charged the 1 hr it took me to locate the tools they needed!!!
I can't say this enough - avoid Father & Son!!!
