Troy grew from farm fields in a few decades, so no two moves look alike
Troy became a city in 1955 and grew fast for the next 25 years, turning farmland into subdivisions. I-75 cuts through the middle of town, and Big Beaver Road is the office and retail spine, with Somerset Collection and the tallest tower in the city, the Top of Troy.
That mix is why a Troy move can be a one-level ranch off a quiet side street on Monday and a high-rise apartment with a loading dock on Tuesday. The packing, crew size, and truck are different for each. We would rather walk the stairs, the hallway, or the elevator route in person before we give you a number.
Ranches, 1970s colonials, and a growing number of towers and townhomes
Troy's single-family homes run from small ranches of about 1,000 square feet to 1970s and 1980s colonials, tri-levels on big wooded lots, and newer one-and-a-half and two-story homes. A ranch is mostly one floor. A colonial usually means upstairs bedrooms and a basement, and a tri-level means short flights of stairs between levels. For stair-heavy houses we schedule extra crew time, and for a piano on a tight staircase we bring pads and extra hands.
The farmland is gone now, and new building is infill. That shows up as townhome communities with three-story plans, such as the newer ones south of Long Lake, where you may climb two flights from the garage to the bedrooms. Near Big Beaver, offices are being converted to apartments and newer mixed-use buildings are going up. In a building like that, ask your property manager about elevator reservations, loading dock hours, and any move-in rules before you pick a date.
Troy neighborhoods and what they mean on move day
Troy's neighborhoods are mostly named subdivisions with their own associations. Here are a few, and what to expect.
Sylvan Glen
A large 1970s subdivision of roughly 470 homes beside the Sylvan Glen golf course. Ranches, colonials, contemporaries, and split-levels under mature trees. Expect half-flights of stairs and overhanging branches near driveways.
Raintree Village
Single-family homes from the 1970s through the 1990s, plus condos. Detached houses and attached units need different plans, so say which one you have when you call for an estimate.
Northfield Hills
Condos and townhomes close to I-75. Shared drives and common walkways can make the carry from truck to door longer than the floor plan suggests.
Lake Charnwood
A lake community whose property owners association splits members into on-lake and off-lake lots. Lake lots can mean a tighter approach, so check access before you book.
Somerset North
A subdivision with its own homeowners association, a short distance from Somerset Collection and the Big Beaver offices. Ask the association about move-in notice and parking.
East Long Lake Estates and the Long Lake area
North Troy, where homes tend to be newer with larger lots and longer driveways. A longer carry to the truck is the thing to plan for.
Emerald Lakes Village
A homeowners association community of mid-size family homes. Check with the association on guest and truck parking before move day.
Troy rules worth checking before the truck shows up
Snow emergency parking
Troy declares a snow emergency when snowfall tops four inches. While it is in effect, parking on the street is prohibited and ticketed, and that includes a moving truck. Subdivision streets are plowed after that and take about a day to clear. If your move is in winter, pick a backup date and confirm current rules with the city.
Curbside bulk pickup
The city's hauler takes furniture and major appliances on your regular collection day with no appointment, but only two bulk items a week and nothing over 250 pounds. Items go out no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before. Carpet has to be cut and bundled. Big cleanouts may need a private quote, so confirm with the city.
Paint, chemicals, and medications
Troy does not take chemicals, oil, or most paint in curbside trash. Household hazardous waste goes to the SOCRRA site on Coolidge by appointment, and dry pills go to the police lobby. Sort these out before moving day.
Water account change
The city handles water billing through an online change of address form. Residential bills go to the occupant at the address, so fill out the form for both your old and new homes.

Troy Moving FAQs
No. A snow emergency is declared when snowfall is over four inches, and street parking is prohibited and fineable until the road is plowed. Keep a backup date if you move in winter, and check the city's snow page for current rules.
Usually, yes. The city's hauler picks up furniture on your regular day with no call needed, up to two bulk items a week and 250 pounds each. Set them out after 5 p.m. the night before. More than that needs a private quote.
Not in curbside trash. SOCRRA on Coolidge takes household hazardous waste for free, by appointment. Dry latex paint can go in your refuse container, but oil-based paint cannot.
Call the building office first. Ask about elevator reservations, loading dock hours, and whether there is a deposit or insurance form. Then tell us the floor and the route so we can plan crew size and floor protection.
Many Troy subdivisions have one, and the city lists dozens of them with their own dues. The city does not set their move-in rules, so ask your association about notice, truck parking, and gate or elevator use.
