Does anyone on this message forum have a recommendation for a trusted private company/appraiser that handles a vehicle diminished value claim? I prefer to outsource this and would rather not do the negotiation with the insurance company myself.

Here?s the backstory: I was rear-ended in my relatively new (2016 subaru forester 12,100 miles) in Morristown NJ last week. The other driver is accepting liability and the estimate of my vehicle?s damages is $6,500 but that repair cost is likely to increase. The work is being completed in the next 10 days.

TIA. It would also be helpful to know which companies/appraisers I should steer away from.

Paulus Hook too...

I think that Warehouse Cafe and Choc-o-Pain have the best iced and hot coffee, and Brewshot is mostly good and slightly cheaper. Sam AM and Cocoa Bakery are solid. Sam AM has a frequent coffee buyer card that they stamp/punch (to earn a free drink), if I'm not mistaken.

There's also Two Aprons. I go for the food, and on Saturday/Sunday mornings there seem to be lots of people in there getting coffee.

Will definitely try Dames soon, based on these recommendations!

Is it faster to walk from the Hoboken Light Rail to Target or from the Newport Light Rail to Target? I read something about walking along the waterfront from Hoboken, but I can't tell from the maps if it's still possible...

Any tips would be appreciated.

There was an suv parked in the middle of essex street - not sure why - and the light rail hit it. Last i saw the police responded and were towing the vehicle.

Any updates about drop-off bins or related places to donate clothing and household goods? TIA!

Were you able to get to Newark with the bus? Did you identify other options for traveling to Newark (e.g., sharing a cab)?

I will need to get there from Exchange Place or Grove Street on Monday morning...

TIA
