Leaving Central Virginia for good? our River City crew keeps the whole run on one truck with one crew, Richmond to the new door, on a flat price set in writing.
Up the full I-95 corridor
New York is about 340 miles north of Richmond — the whole I-95 gauntlet through DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and across New Jersey into the city. Even on a clear day that’s six-plus hours, and this corridor is rarely clear, so I schedule NYC as a two-to-three-day move. The crew runs it on a real plan and tackles the city delivery fresh, with parking and building access already arranged.
Why Richmonders move to New York
This is almost always a career jump — finance, media, fashion, tech, or grad school — and a leap into a very different pace. I’m Wesley Tate, owner of Heaven’s Moving, and I’ve moved plenty of Richmonders up to the city for that next step. We bring the reverse trip back just as often, when people trade a cramped, pricey NYC apartment for a Richmond rowhouse with actual square footage.
What’s different in New York
Richmond has stoops and steep rowhouse stairs, sure — but New York is a different animal. Many buildings require a certificate of insurance before we can even bring the truck in, freight elevators have strict reserved windows, and walk-ups can mean four or five flights. We handle the COIs, the parking, and the building rules ahead of time, and lay protection on both ends. The same W-2 crew loads in Richmond and unloads in New York on our own truck, under our own insurance, with US DOT and MC authority and Virginia intrastate registration. Your shipment is never handed to another carrier.
