The move started at 9:30 and by 10:30 one of the men had to be replaced because he would not get "wet" and walk outside in the rain. The man that replaced him told the boy that was left that he was not strong enough to do what had to be done so he walked off the job by 12:00 PM. That left me with one man and a man sixty years old that was supposed to stay in the truck and organize everything. The move that started at 9:30 ended at 4:30 A.M. They wanted to charge me $4,000 but with all my screaming they settled for $2,500. I was told to go to my neighbors and get the money or they would take my furniture. They also make you sign a disclosure before they will start that they are not responsible for anything. My nephew had to help them pack the truck and move the boxes as two men were not enough. However my nephew should not have had to do it. They also had trouble getting my couch out of the house and told me to leave it there as they could not move it. I took the molding off the door and it was done. Obviously the couch got in so it should get out. I thought these were reputable people being in business for so long but the damage that was caused was unbelievable. They cracked my mirror in the bedroom and could not put the bedroom together without the mirror. The mirror is the back of the bed. They ripped my couch which was new. My beige coffee table was put on the sidewalk in the rain and was stained. When bringing in my furniture they scratched my new wood floor by the front door (the floor had just been put down two days earlier). They did not put together the second bedroom because they were "tired". Lastly the covers they used to cover my furniture were so filthy and dirty it was unbelievable. They were thrown on the floor outside in the rain and then they wanted to cover my furniture with them. I was in touch with the lawyer to pay for the cracked mirror which was going to cost me $170 to fix and was basically told to go to h***. Jaysmunch2@Verizon.net

1)the drivers would not answer any questions and had an i dont care we can leave now if you want and not move you attitude. 2.)the movers were lazy and took there sweet time in fact one of the mover sat down while only one of the three movers work it was so bad i had to help move the boxes to get anything done. 3.)they were ill prepared for i ordered boxes and packing supplies and they brought non of it saying that i should have known better and brought my own boxes the nerve. 4.) my stuff was scratched and slightly damaged considering they were in a truck all loose and not in boxes. 5.) my estimate was $480 to $540 and they charged me $692 thank god my aunt had money all they would have kept my property and charged me for storage. 6.)they charged me for 6 hrs instead of the 2 and a half hrs it actually took

We were very pleased with Father & Son Moving & Storage. They were very patient with a lot of stuff. Everything was in very small boxes, there were a lot of trips up and down stairs and they were very patient with it. They were very careful with everything. It cost more than they had originally estimated because it took longer because everything was in small packages. They were courteous, they were on time. They were very helpful with where to put things and how to sort them.
Description of Work: Father & Son Moving & Storage helped us move.

When we got to the house, it was already dark out, the guy said his boss wanted the money before we moved in, we said no, he than said we could not have our furniture. We had to come up with another 2,000dollars, because we went over time he charged us 392.00 more an hour. The guys were so tired, they started to break thing, scrach walls, it was the worst. then the next day, the owner call us to say, we owed him another 200.00 dollars, we said take us to court, I'm sorry i didn't call the police.
Description of Work: It took him all day to move me out. He told me it would be one set price, 192.00hr.I said what if we go over 8 hours, he sais that would not happen. I moved in the same town.
