Trowt Moving & Storage

Trowt movers has been our family moving company for the past 12 years. We have never had an issue with them. They are courteous, true to their word and very professional. Trowt movers is the only moving company our entire family will use.

I can not say enough about Trowt Movers. Not only did they have me moved out of my 3^rd floor condo (no elevator) in less than 2 hours they did it without a hitch. It was the most stress free move I have ever experienced. They were on time (rare in any service field these days), very polite and exremely professional and hard working. Each member of the crew introduced themselves to me right away, which I thought was a great touch. My belongings then went to storage with Trowt as well. This is a very unique and extremely convenient feature. They packed up my belongins into a freight trailor, stored in a loced and monitored facility for over 2 months until my move in date. (more convenient and a heck of a lot less expensive than any on demand/​portable storage company I could find). Then then delivered my belongings to my new home again… ON TIME and without any issue. It was a pleasure working with these guys and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking to make a move of their home or anything for that matter… Thanks again guys!

The two-​man crew showed up late, but it was due to the rain/​sleet/​snow yesterday… completely understandable since traffic was absurd. I was charged for the normal transit time out to my location. After the pickup the guys worked non-​stop in the rain/​snow until the job was complete. It was slippery and cold, but they managed to get everything in the house as I directed without touching any of our newly painted walls. Overall it was a really good experience, and I would use them again.

Trowt Movers did an excellent job moving my one-​bedroom apartment in Beverly into a storage pod that was going to be shipped to CA. The woman who handles the scheduling and office-​y stuff was a pleasure to speak to and was very knowledgeable. The two guys that they sent were super friendly and they were so FAST! They were pros at filling up these weird storage pods and and they worked so efficiently that they finished earlier than expected, which saved me time and money. Before we left I hired them to do some in-​home moving for a client, and also passed their info along to a family member who is making a local move.
I know moving is the worst, but you can definitely trust Trowt to make it a little bit easier!

These guys are great! We were given a quote, then put our move on hold for 8 months. They honored the original quote.
3 of the guys came and were friendly, efficient, fast and professional.
I would definitely recommend this company.

These guys were fantastic. Peter who gave us our quote was extremely nice and the moving crew were friendly, funny, and most important: efficient.
These guys cleared out our two bedroom apartment in no time and came in well under the given estimate. Also very important: They packed our stuff very securely — nothing was broken.
I really don’t understand the couple of horrible reviews on here, we had a great experience with them. Perhaps it’s not as good if something gets broken.
However, one thing I did take away from the other reviews was that it’s not readily apparent that your default breakage coverage is $.60 per pound. You can get more if you ask for it, for a charge, but it wasn’t offerred. Also, as one of the other reviews mentions, they’re pretty lax on a written agreement. Our quote was considered our agreement. So, if that means something to you, ask for it up front.

I moved from Topsfield to Newburyport in January. Trowt Moving and Storage came highly recommended. They did not disappoint from the initial meeting, to delivery of the last box!
The guys were courteous, professional and efficient! It is hard for me to understand the negative reviews as this was so opposite from my experience.

We are moving to No Shore from Lexington. Our furniture will be in storage for 30 days. Recieved two estimates from moving companies. Peter Trowt did the walk thru and estimate. Estimate was competitive. Company provided a 28 ft container for move and storage, so there is time saving over unloading into wharehouse and reloading.
Estimate was for 5 – 6 hrs for move to Beverly wharehouse including transportation each way. Three man crew arrived on time and did not stop until complete.
Charge was right on the estimate and container was packed full. Very curtious crew and no damage. This was the longer of the two moves. Next move will be shorter.
Expect next move will go smoothly. Would use company again.

This company is a disgrace! They damaged an expensive piece of furniture, overcharged me for an entire hour while the crew ate lunch and when the move ran late they brought two extra guys to help on my move (without asking me) HOWEVER they charged me for a 4 man crew instead of a 3 man crew for 2 hours. When I questioned it they claimed it was because they had another job to go to! This was only the beginning of my problems!
The movers never showed me the contract until they were asking for a credit card at the end of the move. The contract has a «declaration of value» section that allows the customer to select insurance coverage — however if you don’t select any option they pay any damaged items at a rate of $ 1.25 a pound. This is mighty convenient for Trowt Movers if they never produce the contract until at the end of the move and they damage a expensive item!
Amazing the unprofessionalism this company displayed all while damaging the old condo knocking down a exit sign that I had to hire an electrician to re-​wire and install a brand new sign for as well as file a law suit against this company for he damage to my furniture due to their lack of care for my items.
Trust me do yourself a favor — higher another company that is in the same price point — Look at Gentle Giant or T.E. Anderson — don’t be fooled by this company! Peter Trowt will not return your calls, nor will he keep his word. He promised to refund me for the hour of work and the time his crew overcharged me on the bill — over 5 weeks later the check has never reach me! He is a LIAR.
The old saying is accurate — buyer beware!
