Swansea fronts Mount Hope Bay with Route 6 as its main spine and the Lees River cutting across the eastern side. The town is rural-coastal — capes and antique colonials inland, seaside cottages on the Ocean Grove stretch, with newer subdivisions filling the middle. Thirty-five miles down from the Franklin shop, fifty-five minutes on a clear day via Route 6 and I-195.
Move-day in Swansea
Lees River bridge weight limits get checked before any job that crosses water — we don't run a posted limit. Ocean Grove seaside-staging means salt-air protection: we put extra pad and stretch wrap on furniture even for short carries from truck to door, because corrosion is real and we'd rather over-protect a move than apologize later. Route 6 / I-195 interchange backs up at typical commute hours; we plan around it.
Most Swansea homes are capes, antique colonials, seaside cottages, or newer subdivisions. Standard kit on every truck: ramp boards, banister covers, four-wheel dollies, mattress bags, stretch wrap. The shoreline approach drives are sometimes longer than they look on a map; we walk the path during the quote.
