Troy Moving

Moving Up and Down Troy's Hills

Beautiful nineteenth-century housing, a serious grade, and streets that were laid out before trucks.

Troy has two distinct moving problems. Down by the river, the brownstones and rowhouses have stoops, narrow entries, and straight staircases with tight top landings — the same challenge as Albany's historic blocks. Up the hill, the issue is the grade itself: parking a loaded truck on a steep street is a real consideration, and so is carrying a dresser up to a house set well above the road.

RPI adds the usual concentrated academic move weekends, which are among the busiest days of the Capital Region year. Between the students, the historic housing, and a lot of long-held family properties, clearing work and moving work regularly turn up in the same booking.

How a Troy Move Gets Set Up

Four steps, with the grade and the stoop both settled up front.

  1. Flat or Hill

    River-level rowhouse or a house up the grade — different plans entirely.

  2. Position the Truck

    On a steep street, where we park decides the whole day's carry distance.

  3. Rig for the Stairs

    Stoops and tight top landings need planning, not just more people.

  4. Delivered and Rebuilt

    Reassembled and set in the rooms you point at before we leave.

Reviews From Customers Around Troy

"Updating because we did hire them again — this time for a full move rather than just unloading pods. It was not an easy move (staircases, weightlifting equipment, etc.) and they rocked it. Good crew who worked hard all day despite VT feeling like a damn sauna at the time. They earned the five stars!"

"Two Brothers Moving are experienced, strong, energetic, respectful, safe, careful, quick, insured, efficient and reasonably priced professionals that made our move about as stress-free as can be expected. We hit some unexpected and unforeseen obstacles (snow/ice/cold, so cold) during our quick move from Ludlow to Newbury, NH. Due to these unforeseen circumstances, the job took longer than originally estimated. The brothers and I had a very mature, professional chat about how to resolve the discrepancy in a way that I didn't feel taken advantage of and they had fair pay for a job well done."

"Two Brothers moved us from an apartment in Bristol to a house in Brandon about 2 weeks ago. They did an excellent job. Aaron and his 2-man crew (in our case Dan and Jeremy) did an amazing job loading and securing our belongings in their truck, then unloading and placing everything in the new place. They took special care of fragile and large items and were obviously careful and mindful. I observed them coordinating and communicating with each other as they went along. It was a good moving experience and I would readily recommend Two Brothers (already have, actually)."

Troy FAQs

Questions From Troy Residents

It can, because carry distance and truck positioning drive the time more than the furniture does. What we won't do is quote flat and then discover the hill. Tell us the address and we'll factor it in honestly the first time.
