Moving to Matoaca or Ettrick: What to Know

Matoaca and Ettrick sit along the Appomattox River on the southern edge of Chesterfield County, directly across the water from Petersburg. Ettrick is home to Virginia State University, a historically Black university founded in 1882, and the two communities were connected to Petersburg by Campbell’s Bridge as early as 1810, which helped the area’s mills develop along the river.

Two Distinct Communities

Though they sit side by side, Matoaca and Ettrick have different characters. Ettrick has more of a small-town, city feel with tighter streets, while Matoaca, just to the west, tends to offer larger lots and a more rural setting. Both communities put residents within a short walk or drive of Petersburg’s shops, restaurants, and Colonial Heights’ Southpark Mall.

Outdoor Access

The Appomattox River Trail, a 22-mile bike and walking trail system, runs through the area, and Appomattox Park in Ettrick offers several miles of scenic walking trails for residents who want to spend time along the river.

Keyshon, Kaylen, and Deyon were fantastic! We handed them a wildly unorganized move—my boyfriend apparently believes labeling boxes takes away the element of surprise—and they handled it with so much patience and professionalism. We had delicate art, lots of books, and heavy items, and they were careful with our belongings while still working efficiently. Even with all the chaos on our end, they were friendly, reassuring, and so easy to work with. What I appreciated most was how welcome they made us feel in Richmond. Moving to a new city is a lot, and having three genuinely kind people help us settle in made a real difference. I’d absolutely recommend Cavalier Moving, and especially Keyshon, Kaylen, and Deyon. Thank you all!
