To many people, local moving is the most straightforward DIY project. Besides, who can’t handle a few boxes and furniture down the street?

Well, this is a wrong assumption.

Local moving is just as challenging as any other type of move, if not more.

A lot goes into local moving, including planning, logistics, packing, and of course, the move itself. If one thing goes wrong, it can throw off your entire moving schedule.

That’s why you need professional local moving company like Cavalier Moving.

We understand how emotionally and mentally draining a move can be. We will take care of every single detail, from planning to execution, so you can focus on what’s important – your life.

Many fly-by-night moving companies pop up and offer subpar services. They overcharge, break your belongings, and don’t even show up on time.

FULL-SERVICE LOCAL MOVERS: GET A FREE WALK-THROUGH!

Our local moving process starts with a comprehensive walk-through of your home. A walk-through allows us to review all items that will be moved and to answer any questions you may have about the process.

Below is an overview of what our walk-through entails:

  • We review your home’s layout to develop the most efficient moving plan. The layout includes stairs, doorways, and other obstacles that may impact the move. Also, we’ll note any delicate or valuable items that require special care.
  • We take inventory of all items that we have to move. This includes large furniture, appliances, boxes, and miscellaneous items.
  • We discuss any special handling requirements for delicate or valuable items.
  • We agree on your moving date and estimated arrival time at your new home.
  • We complete a walk-through of your neighborhood and surrounding areas to ensure a smooth move day. During this, we find the best route for our trucks, secure parking, and more.
  • We explain our moving services and pricing options. We want to be transparent about our pricing so there are no surprises on move day.

Remember, we don’t surcharge for things like long carry, flights of stairs, or tight spaces. All of this is included in your hourly rate!

HIRE LOCAL MOVERS TODAY!

Hiring local movers comes with several perks, including:

  • Knowledge of the local area: A local moving company will know shortcuts to get you to your new home faster. They’ll also be more familiar with the traffic patterns and any construction that might slow your move.
  • Flexibility: A local mover is more likely to be able to work around your schedule. They will accommodate you if you’re moving on a weekend or need to store your belongings for a few days.
  • Reliability: National moving companies are often less reliable. If they’re late or don’t show up, it’s not a big deal because they have other customers to take care of. A local mover knows that their reputation is on the line, so they’re more likely to be punctual and professional.
  • Affordability: Local movers typically charge less than national companies. This is because they don’t have to pay for tolls or overnight stays.

At Cavalier Moving, we are your local moving company in Richmond, VA.

We offer all of the above benefits and much more! Whether moving a few blocks down the street or across the town, we will get you there safely and on time. Contact us today for a free quote!

I had a wonderful experience with Cavalier Moving. They quickly returned my initial phone call and gave me a quote and answered all of my questions with ease! Communication leading up to and on the day of the move was great. My move team, Travis, Maurice, and Andrew were incredible! They were SO efficient and navigated challenges, like unanticipated road closures and tight stairwells, with ease! Would 100% use Cavalier Moving again.
Response from the owner:Thank you for trusting us with your move! We're glad everything went smoothly.

My husband and I have been together for 10 years and we have moved as many times in all those years. Most of our moves have been stressful and a process that definitely causes gray hairs. But our most recent move with Cavalier Moving truly open my eyes to how important it is to have a solid moving team behind you. Now that we have a child we don't have time to spend all day hauling boxes ourselves. The process with Cavalier was very smooth. Booking the move was very easy and everyone that we dealt with from setting up the process to the actual movers were incredibly friendly. They arrived on time, they were quick yet methodical and took great care with all of our belongings. The move out of our old place and into our new place was seamless. Any of our future moves will absolutely be done with Cavalier Moving. I highly recommend them. The customer service is fantastic and they do a great job. Moving is never fun but when you have someone who makes the process run smoothly it really changes the process. We really appreciated it!
Response from the owner:Thank you for trusting us with your move! We're glad everything went smoothly.

Megan who works in the office was great!! She was very kind and helpful, and answered all of our questions. We even had to change the moving date twice. She didn't skip a on taking care of us. For our move, we had two 26' trucks and five guys (wish I could remember their names) and they were very friendly, fast and communicated with us on what they were doing. They even helped my niece put her stuff into her uhaul. They never complained or acted like they didn't want to be there. The day we moved it was very hot and humid, and these guys didn't miss a beat. This move compared to our last movers we used, was complete opposite. Last time We started at 9:30am and they finished at 4:30am!!! Cavalier was finished by 4pm. I definitely recommend Cavalier!!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive review! We're glad we could make your move stress-free.
