Testimonials
“I have to say that everyone at Roanoke has been so great to work with. I can see that everyone is knowledgeable, professional and thorough, not to mention extremely “customer focused.” These qualities, to find them at all levels, no matter who we are dealing with, is very rare. I appreciate the time that all of you took to understand our business and to find solutions that fit our needs, rather than just fit us in a box. I can not convey the respect and confidence that I have in Roanoke which is based upon the level of service that we have received from you and Naomi, along with your knowledge and follow through. I am guessing that this permeates throughout the Roanoke company.”

“I wanted to reach out to inform you of how amazing the Roanoke team really are. I had a short turnaround and needed to get an ATA Carnet in the hands of my producer who was traveling internationally with a lot of film equipment. Hsin-Ya Hou in the New York office assisted me until work ended on the east coast and then she passed me along to Candece Perry in Long Beach. She not only helped me understand the process of submitting the application, but she also calmed me down when I went into a blind panic. The following morning Hsin-Ya noticed an error and immediately fixed it so I could have the Carnet in my hands by my deadline. I don’t know what I would’ve done without these incredible women.”
