Let’s be honest: moving in Troy means you’re either packing the good china yourself or hoping the crew treats it like a Fabergé egg. Around here, the true test is whether the movers show up for a Friday job on a Tuesday’s notice, and whether they can handle a cast-iron dresser without cracking a sidewalk near the Somerset Collection.

I’ve seen crews wrap a curio cabinet like a prophet, while another left a scratch on the new oak floor and a claim unresolved for 90 days. Whether you need a 300-mile haul or a four-hour sprint, these are the names that make or break your water bill.

Read on and plan your exit properly.

Friendly, efficient, and easy to recommend. I already have, twice.

Friendly, efficient, highly recommended
Damaged furniture and new flooring
Claims unresolved after 90 days

O'Sullivan Moving & Storage Co. has a father-son team that handles long hauls well. They moved me 300 miles without a complaint. But then came the bad part: they damaged a dresser and scuffed my new hardwood floor. I filed a claim. Ninety days later, nothing. Friendly and efficient on the road, but the follow-up left me cold. I'd think twice before trusting them with fragile items.

Affordable, careful, and quick. I'd hire them again for sure.
