Moving Costs, Damaged Goods

I used Troy Moving and Storage to move from Victoria British Columbia to Toronto Ontario the pick up of my furniture and things was done on time and competently by the crew who arrived, thats where the good part ends.The 5 weeks of storage starts at the time of pickup not at the destination(misleading) when my items were picked up all was tagged with yellow stickers and checked off on a inventory control sheet everything was put on the truck carefully.
When i arrived in Toronto i was contacted by the company that my items had arrived a few days after i got here. I told them that i was keeping them in storage until i found a apartment. I went out to their location in Scarborough to see what the cost was the cost had been pegged at over 8000 dollars i told them that was not accurate as i came back with less items then when i went out there with and at that time i paid just over 4500. I was offered to do a reweigh of my items i told them yes i wanted it done and i wanted to be present i was not called when this was done as promised. My items were delivered in August 13 2013. Many items were damaged with either gouges or completely destroyed. My coffee table was smashed beyond repair, my book cases were gouged my end table was gouged,a computer desk was gouged a set of 4 chairs for a kitchen table all were damaged the seats ripped. I was missing boxes and told them what i was missing. When my items were delivered no inventory control sheet was used to mark off the boxes against the sheet. I ended up with someones box as the tag was green not yellow. I immediately contacted the Troy representative i used ( Naomi) and reported the items damaged and boxes missing.I was sent a claim form and e-mailed all the pictures of the damaged items the claim form was filled out and sent in. I never heard back regarding my missing boxes their insurance adjuster sent a offer of $75.00 for all the damaged and missing items it was turned down by me and i told them it was not acceptable for the amount of damaged or lost items occurred and i was not going to pay their deductible as of January 12 2014 i have heard nothing back from any of them. This company i would not recommend to anyone they do not follow their own policy and they try to overcharge you by quite a bit. It is disappointing dealing with companies like this especially as a single parent. They have no regard for people personal items nor do they care if they are smashed my coffee table was obviously smashed when they did a re weigh of my items at that time i should have been advised as well as other items. that had been covered and damage the gouging of the furniture was by the look on purpose as well as the coffee table being broken.
If you need a moving company stay away from this one

Service

They delivery truck was days late to pick up my things and they didn't bother telling me until I called them day of the initial scheduled delivery. The workers handled my things with no care. They completely falsified the condition of many of my items, saying things like my bed (which was new and never moved) was broken and my TV was in "unknown" condition.

Then when it came time to receive my items they were TWO (2) months late. I had to call them repeatedly and BEG for my things. When they finally arrived not only did they overcharge me way over the estimate they INCREASED the price because they had to store my items longer because they didn't deliver my things on time. Apparently they are "investigating" this incident.

On top of that the large items like my bed frame and TV were completely destroyed beyond repair, like they dropped it from the second floor. NOW they are ignoring my insurance claim for my broken items.

Moving My Mother

Troy Moving helped relocate my mother across the country. We had arranged a move from Ontario with some storage required. I was very happy with the storage rate and the customer service.

We were asked to post a review, and it was my pleasure. They took care of our account, and made sure to take care of my elderly mother who was all alone.

The crew was great both sides and the young guys took care of my mother who is not able to lift everything.

I was impressed with the service, thank you to everyone.

Move from London, ON to Vancouver

This company is super sketchy and not trustworthy at all. Lost one of my boxes and will not answer calls or return emails. I tried to submit a claim but have heard nothing back. Also be sure to double check your receipt because they added up the total incorrectly and I had to correct them (they were off by $300).

Move

Troy falsified the weight of my shipment after delivering it three days late. I was charged for more than double the actual weight. I had my items weighed by another professional company after they were delivered and photos were taken.
Troy refused to even speak with me about resolving the weight issue after I had been waiting almost two weeks for my belongings to get delivered.
The customer service was just awful. got one reply for every three attempts to contact the company. They did not call before pick up either.
Overall, DO NOT use this company. It will only cost you in time, money, and stress.

Move from Halifax to Edmonton

They didn't insure goods as requested, they marked everything as damaged though it was already packed in boxes and wrapped -- so apparently they see through boxes and blankets. Glass doors and lamps they packed -- they managed to break. 7900 pounds increased to over 10,000 when they moved it. Worst company I have ever dealt with!!!

Moved from Ottawa to Winnipeg

DO NOT USE! My shipment of 800 lbs (weighed myself prior to shipping) was charged at 1800 lbs. Troy will not provide a scale ticket. Goods were then held hostage. This company caused me a lot of undue stress!

Move from Vancouver to Ottawa

This was the worst experience ever. Please do not use this company. I read the reviews and thought they were good, although what I should have done was call people who actually used them to share their experience. Never again!

Move from Halifax to Toronto

Initially we were impressed when Troy Trans. came and picked up our stuff. The people in Halifax were very courteous, and professional. However, our stuff was delayed getting to Toronto, by 3 days, and then when it did arrive, they didn't want to move our stuff in for us even though we had paid for this in advance! To top it off, a lot of our goods were damaged, and we tried several times to call the Scarborough office to complain, but they just ignored us and didn't return our calls. If I move again, I will go with another company.
