Negative Fosnaugh and Sons Reviews
I've called 3 different times left a couple of messages and even emailed! Have not heard a single thing from these guys! Would have been nice to get a response and a price!
They had less than a week turnaround time which was a bonus as they are one of the only movers in the area. Did not tell me there is an up charge for credit card beforehand and had no check handy to avoid fee.
1st they made appointment to view the items to be moved for an estimate on fee; they failed to show, but provided a verbal quote. 2nd we requested 3 individuals to be present on the day of the move; they failed and only sent 2.
Neutral Fosnaugh and Sons Reviews
They did good. Had to pay an extra hour for five minutes of drive time before the got to my house.
