We used them to move about a year ago. It was a blazing hot day and they did a great job without ever complaining. We were very pleased with their hard work.

We have used TROSA to move 3 times in the last 10 years. Each time I have been very impressed with their professionalism and work ethic. I highly recommend them as they do a great job and you are supporting a very good organization.

I, too, have used TROSA and have recommended them to even my most cynical friends, who have also ultimately used them and been very pleased. It is a phenomenal group.

In addition to their moving services, and buying our christmas tree from them, we have used their frame shop. I had them frame up a poster-sized group shot from our wedding as an anniversary present to my wife. They did a fantastic job, absolute A-1 quality, and at about a half to two-thirds the cost of what one of the big retailers wanted to charge us during one of their "sales."

We will be using them for all our future framing jobs.

TROSA moved us this past week from storage to our new house. Excellent group of young men. They even held onto the furniture while I placed felt pads under each leg for the pieces going on our new hardwood floors! We highly recommend them.

Incredibly good luck with them as movers -- hardworking, fast, excellent quality, nice guys. This is an amazing program that turns lives around.

We've used them for one-time cleanups on properties under construction / new ownership and for ongoing maintenance. On the former, excellent work, price is right, hard work done right. On the latter: we continue to use them and they keep the yard looking acceptable, but we don't have high-end flowering beds or plants needing maintenance. I don't think if we did that we'd find them knowledgeable enough on complex landscaping. If you have a simpler yard or a commercial property I think they'd be awesome. Routine maintenance work they do fine with.

Huge supporter of Trosa!

We've used them several times for moves too, personally & for business. Always very pleased. Excellent organization that we are happy to support!! Would like to try their lawn care service.

They also opened up a small grocery store in Durham this year. Haven't visited it yet, but would like to.

They moved us and did a fabulous job. The guys were extremely grateful and respectful, and handled our things with care.

Used them a year ago to move to rental home, using them again next week to move to larger home. Had no complaints and anticipate another positive experience.

Congrats to those who got good service from TROSA

Personally, I would never use "TROSA". I used them couple of years ago since I wanted to support those people but with the experience I have had I would never try them

First of all, they were rude and said inappropriate things to my wife. She was so upset because of them and made our moving more painful.

Second, they spent almost double the number of hours they initially estimated as they were so lazy. Took them about 8 hours (for 4 people) to move stuff from one bedroom apartment on the 1st floor to two bedroom on the first floor in the same apartment complex. They used their vehicle to move within the apartment complex, of course. How much stuff one could have in one bedroom (600 sq ft) apartment to take that many hours?

I would never recommend those to anyone
