I’m Wesley Tate, and I added short-term storage to Heaven’s Moving because real moves rarely line up perfectly. I started this company in 2015 in Greater Richmond, and I have watched too many families get stuck in the gap between closings or caught by a lease that ends before the next one starts. Storage is how we keep your move on schedule when the calendar doesn’t cooperate.
From a Fan District rowhouse to a Short Pump colonial, Greater Richmond movers writes the whole job as one flat number up front and holds it — no surprise lines once the truck is loaded.
For the gaps Richmond moves keep hitting
Closings two weeks apart. A VCU-area lease that ends before the new one begins. A Short Pump build that slips a month, or a Church Hill renovation that runs long. In every one of those, the answer is the same: we load your home, hold it safe and inventoried, and redeliver when you are ready. You are not scrambling for a self-storage unit and a second crew.
Continuity is the real value here. The crew that wrapped your dining set and carried it down the Fan stairs is the crew that stages it in storage and brings it back into the new house — same hands, same inventory list, one flat agreement covering all of it. With a rented unit you do the heavy work twice and hope nothing walks off. With us, your shipment never leaves our care, it stays padded and off the floor, and you get one bill instead of a truck rental, a storage lease, and a labor crew you have to find on your own.
