 Getting Your Home Ready to Sell?

We Can Help Before, During, and After

When most people think about hiring a moving company, it’s after their home has sold and it’s time to pack the truck. But what if your mover could actually make the entire selling process easier—starting well before closing day? 

At Hampton Roads Moving & Storage, we do more than just move boxes. We partner with homeowners to help streamline the entire experience—from getting your home show-ready, to packing and storage during the selling process, and of course, the move itself once it’s time to go. 

If you're preparing to list your home, we can help you start strong and stay ahead. 

 

 

Why Prepping the Home Matters 


Buyers want to walk into a space and imagine themselves living there. That’s hard to do when the home feels cluttered, over-personalized, or packed with furniture. First impressions are everything and homes that are clean, uncluttered, and well-staged tend to: 

  • Make your home feel larger and more inviting 
  • Improve your listing photos 
  • Create better flow during showings 
  • Help buyers focus on the home—not your stuff 

 

Here’s How We Can Help 

 

Before the Sale: Get Show-Ready Without the Stress 

 

Professional Packing Services 

Packing is one of the biggest stressors during a move. We can take care of it for you—whether you need help with one room or the entire house, you choose how much or how little help you need. 

We offer: 

  • Full-home packing 
  • Partial packing (just closets, garages, storage spaces, etc.) 
  • Fragile-item packing (like dishware, artwork, or electronics) 
  • Heavy lifting support if you need to rearrange furniture for staging 



 

Secure, Climate-Controlled Storage 

Need to clear out space before showings or listing photos? We offer short- and long-term storage in our 80,000 sq. ft., temperature-regulated facility, we'll even pick it up and deliver it back when you're ready!

Perfect for: 

  • Extra furniture that makes rooms feel crowded 
  • Seasonal decor 
  • Personal items and family photos 
  • Packed boxes or bins you won’t need right away 



 

 During the Sale: Keep It Tidy and Ready to Show 


Storage Solutions to Keep Your Home Market-Ready

Living in a home that’s on the market can be exhausting—especially when you have to be ready for a showing at any moment. Our goal is to make your home look its best—and make your life easier while you wait for the right offer. We can help you: 

  • Store packed boxes and non-essentials so they’re out of sight 
  • Remove extra furniture to make rooms feel larger 
  • Keep your garage and closets from becoming "catch-alls" during showings 



 

After the Sale: A Smooth, Stress-Free Move 

 

 Full-Service Move-Out Support 

Once your home sells, we’re ready to help you move—whether that’s across town, across the state, or across the country. 

We also offer: 

  • Overnight truck holds if your new home isn’t ready right away 
  • Short-term storage between closings 
  • Careful, professional handling of your belongings from start to finish 
  • Local and long-distance moving services 
  • Professional, respectful crews who treat your belongings with care 
  • Delivery of stored items when your timeline allows
