What People Are Saying

I work for a machinery manufacturing company. We manufacture packaging machinery and needed 4 large pieces of equipment to be fully crated to ship to Bogota, Colombia. Rowe Transfer handled the crating of our pieces as well as allowing the carrier to pick up from their location (instead of bringing the crates back to our facility). I would highly recommend using their services, especially for international crating purposes.

Rowe is always fair, and I feel comfortable and confident in them to get the job done without mistakes. They’re also flexible. I have never heard that we have to wait for them to get a transport job done which is important when accepting delivery for a new machine. I don’t have to call anyone else for a quote because they are so fair.
