    Not even worth 1 star. What an awful experience for an already stressful event. I was so disappointed with the end result of my move. I overpaid for wasted time and I am out thousands of dollars from items that never made it off the truck into my house. When I was directed to reach out to Jay the owner about all the missing items I discovered the day of unpacking he was anything but friendly, understanding or professional about the situation. I did not believe my items were stolen but when the owner is so pathetically unprofessional what are you supposed to believe at that point? Electronics, jewelry, designer sunglasses all gone.

    I had to follow up with Jay multiple times and got absolutely nowhere besides him sending a link for claims so "I wouldn't keep calling him". Because I have nothing better to do but call a moving company for my missing belongings on top of moving a home all alone? I am a single girl who wanted to trust that my move would be easy and semi stress free now I am dealing with having years and years of expensive and sentimental items *vanish*. Mind you I moved 10 minutes up the road not across the state. It took over an hour for 2 movers to break down my bed. I have put this same bed together and taken it a part on my own in less than 30 minutes. I did not want to be charged for yet another hour for them to put this back together and risk damaging so I told them to leave it and I'll deal with it myself, lovely.

    As soon as they leave I noticed they left one of my bedroom doors off the hinge so I called them back and was charged for another half an hour for "misc" not to mention I have had to repaint over the new walls from where they originally tried to fit items through before deciding to just remove the door entirely. They were friendly but come on. I recommend you choose any other option from this company even if it is spending a little more money. It will be worth it in the long run and you won't have to deal with Jay if something goes wrong.

    Father and Son's price was very very good and on moving day the packing of the truck went really well - the movers were patient and took their time and accommodated everything. The problem was with unpacking. First off they sent only two guys to unpack, there were two trucks (I had that much stuff). The first truck showed up mid-afternoon and that they unpacked. The second truck arrived around 6 in the evening and the two guys were overwhelmed - they worked until 1 in the morning.

    Then the guys had no clue how to reassemble my furniture (they were NOT the same guys that disassembled so they had no idea how to reassemble) - the biggest casualties were my wall unit, my sofas, my file cabinets. After they left I had to go thru and reassemble everything myself. For the wall unit I called the sales guy Mike ** for help who gave me the owner's number but the latter NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. I would not use these guys ever again - the money I saved using them was not worth the hassle of reassembling my furniture myself. The workers worked really hard but now I see how F&S charged me a great price - by skimping on the labor and trucks.

      I paid to have them pack and store my entire house in air conditioned storage. Shortly after they got my goods they announced that they had sold their business to another party. When my goods were delivered, they were clearly not stored in an air conditioned facility. They lost much of the goods and many were damaged or totally destroyed. They are worst and anyone who uses them - BEWARE.

      Yesterday I asked for a moving today from a property to a storage between 8-9 AM; the driver called me before 8 and I told him that they needed 2 people. To make the reservation they asked me yesterday to pay $50.00. I was not going to be at the unit, but yes another person. When I called him around 11.30 he told me that nobody had come and he was trying to get in touch with the Co. I called the driver and he told me that his supervisor told him to go first to another place. I called the Co and they told me that they were very sorry for the delay and were trying to send another person. I cancelled the service, sent them an email and didn't get any answer.

      Hired in June 2021 to pack, move, and store our home’s furnishings. Then to remove from their storage and finally deliver and unpack to our new address in Sept 2021. Original crew was fantastic! 2nd crew was less!! After finding several things missing or broken we contacted owner Jay several times re: missing items; his reply was “he would check warehouse to see if he could find our things.” He never called back!! We called the many numbers for them and only were able to leave messages; no return calls. We left several messages for the sales rep Meike ** also. We paid the $600 for insurance and that was part of our contract. We tried emailing and following instructions to file a claim. They had us repeat the claim filing 4 times. We told them our loss was approximately $5-6,000. with. $1000 deductible.

      Finally after several months we received an email stating that our settlement for our losses would be paid for $60. That’s right. $60 US Dollars!!! We’ve tried numerous times to connect with them directly, via an attorney, and even filed a complaint with the BBB. They never responded to any of us!! We obviously did not agree to their $60. settlement. Very frustrated and not sure if next steps should be to state licensing boards or state insurance boards. Can you help.

      DO NOT USE FATHER AND SON...They dented or scratched most of the big pieces of furniture. The lead guy told me to call the office tomorrow and they would send a man who did their touch ups. This was a guy whom I'd actually requested. I knew him from my prior move. Much to my dissatisfaction and dismay, I was hurt and mortified to learn it was a blatant lie when I called the office the next day and spoke to the owner. We were devastated and hired a man on our own. The owner, in an effort to rectify, sent me $125. It cost me $400.

      I used Father & Son Moving for my most recent move. It was a breeze! They have great rates, showed up on time, and everything was securely moved. I would use them again and again. I highly recommend them to everyone!

      I was recommended by my contractor to use Father and Son Moving and Storage because I had a large expensive wall unit to move. I got an estimate and hired Father and Son Moving and Storage because the owner assured me they would be able to move the wall unit. When the movers arrived they told me they could not move the wall unit, it was too large. I insisted they had to move the unit, it was moving day! They took the unit apart and damaged it beyond repair. Ripped pieces apart by not fully unscrewing and broke one of the doors in half. The $8000 wall unit went in the garbage. Additionally, they did not wrap any of my furniture in blankets because it was a local move. They broke a dining room chair and dented the top of a dresser. Their insurance company paid us $79. Do not use them.

      The two gentlemen that arrived at our house recently to move us out and then over to the next town were very attentive, friendly, speedy, and careful. They also did an excellent job on the other end moving us into our new place. They placed each item as directed while taking pride in their job. They wore protective masks and complied with keeping appropriate distances at all times. I would highly recommend this moving company!!

      This company has a license to steal!! The owners are suave. They charm you like your they are your friend...then they take out your eyeballs! The owners, Anthony & Sal are smooth talking wise guys..They lied about everything form start to finish. The charges for travel from Newark to my home never discussed, the up charges after 8 hours, never revealed, the fact that I scheduled my closing around his so called best crew?

      This crew took over 12 hours to empty my house with 7 guys!!! They had no moving straps, small dollies that a consumer would have, did not take out draws to lighten loads. Took 7 guys 45 minutes to move a mattress!! They broke my desk, crushed my chandelier, everything is damaged, dining room table, lost the parts to put together one of my beds, broke damaged plants, lost items. The list goes on and on!! Hijacked my stuff..drove away at 3 am with two trucks full of my furniture...left me in my new house with no beds, nothing put together!!! I have no resolution other than to live with my broken & missing stuff..Worst 78 hours of my life!!! Do not let these people move you under any circumstances!!!
