MOVING IN RICHMOND: WHAT TO EXPECT

Richmond is a city of old neighborhoods, narrow streets and a lot of stairs, and a good move here starts with a plan for the building, not just the boxes. Here is what our crews see most often.

Neighborhoods we move every week

How a Richmond move works with us

  1. Free estimate. Tell us the size of your home, both addresses and your date.
  2. Access plan. We ask about stairs, elevators, loading docks and where the truck can park, so there are no surprises on the day.
  3. Move day. The crew pads and wraps furniture, protects floors and doorways, and loads the truck.
  4. Delivery and setup. We place furniture where you want it and reassemble what we took apart.

Timing your move

Richmond’s busiest moving months are May through August, when leases turn over and VCU and University of Richmond students move in and out. Weekends and month-end dates fill first. Our guide to moving during peak season has more tips, and if your street is tight, read how we handle narrow historic streets.
