Locally Owned Moving Company from Virginia Beach

Our Virginia Beach movers live and work in the same neighborhoods we move people out of. That shapes how we work. You get the same friendly, reliable service you would expect from a neighbor, because in most cases that is exactly what we are.
Tidal Town Moving was founded by Rooke Crouch and Josh Wright, who both started in this industry in 2015 and worked their way up through operations before opening the company here. Avery Crouch runs operations day to day. Between them, the leadership has spent a decade on trucks and in dispatch, and that experience shows up in how a move is planned, crewed and priced.

We are a moving company, not a broker. The truck that shows up is our truck, the crew is on our payroll, and the person who quotes your move is the person accountable for it. That matters more than most people realize until something goes wrong on move day.

Virginia Beach Neighborhoods We Move

Virginia Beach is spread out, and a move looks different depending on where you are starting from. Here is what our crews plan for around the city.

  • Oceanfront and North End. Narrow driveways, seasonal traffic on Atlantic and Pacific Avenue, and condo buildings that want elevator reservations. From May through September, we start early to stay ahead of beach traffic.
  • Town Center and Pembroke. High-rise buildings with loading dock windows and certificate of insurance requirements. We handle the COI paperwork with building management before move day so nobody is standing in a lobby arguing about it.
  • Great Neck and Alanton. Older single-family homes, long driveways, mature trees and tight turnarounds. We bring the smaller truck when the approach calls for it.
  • Kempsville and Larkspur. Established neighborhoods with a lot of split levels and finished basements. Stair carries are common here, and we price them into the estimate up front.
  • Hilltop and Linkhorn. Townhomes and larger homes off First Colonial Road. Good access, straightforward loads.
  • Red Mill, Ocean Lakes and Sandbridge. South of the Green Line, longer drives, and a lot of military families rotating in and out.
  • Princess Anne and Landstown. Newer construction, wide streets and easy truck access. Often the fastest moves we run.
  • Chic’s Beach and Bayside. Cottages and raised homes on pilings off Shore Drive, with narrow lanes and street parking to plan around.

We also move between Virginia Beach and the rest of Hampton Roads every week. Norfolk, Chesapeake, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Hampton, Newport News, and Yorktown all fall inside our no travel fee zone.

Had a friend that used them and I was there the entire time and I was quite impressed actually. It's very hard to find hard-working, efficient, & reliable movers. But I can tell you that the team that we had moving his belongings was very efficient and very hard-working. Not to mention they did not damage one thing not even scuff or scratch a wall. Once again very impressed. It's hard to keep a 4.9 star review or higher and I see why the do such a good job at it. Will definitely recommend to friends, family, and customers.
Response from the owner:Thank you for trusting us with your move! We're glad everything went smoothly.

If I could give this company a million stars, I would! We couldn't have asked for a better experience from booking to unloading the last box. I called in desperate need and Rusty was so kind and promised to help. Within a few hours, we had Jeff and Jayden at our doorstep with bright smiles. They were so kind, polite and just all around great people. They were such a great team and you could tell they knew what they were doing and happy doing it. Thank you to everyone that we encountered. You guys are the BEST!
Response from the owner:We’re so pleased to hear you had a positive moving experience. Thank you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Moving in Virginia Beach

How much does a local move cost in Virginia Beach?

Time starts when the movers arrive at your location and stops when the last item is placed in your new home. There are no travel time fees, fuel surcharges, or hidden costs within Hampton Roads.

How far in advance should I book my move?

Arrow Down

For local moves, we recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance. During peak moving seasons (Summer, end of month, and weekends), you should schedule 4-6 weeks before your planned date. However, we often have same-day and next-day availability for smaller local moves depending on current demand.

Do I need to provide anything on moving day?

Arrow Down

No, we bring everything needed for your move including the moving truck, furniture blankets, dollies, and basic tools for disassembly and reassembly. If you’re doing your own packing, make sure all boxes are properly taped and sealed. It’s helpful to have a clear path from your items to the truck and parking space available close to your entrance for the moving truck.

Is Tidal Town Moving licensed and insured?

Arrow Down

Yes. Tidal Town Moving is fully licensed by the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (License #705) and the State Corporation Commission (License #11306836). We carry full Cargo insurance, Motor Vehicle insurance, and General Liability insurance. We’ve also maintained an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau since 2022.

Do I need to empty out my dressers when moving?

Arrow Down

No. You can leave your clothing in your drawers. Your dressers will be shrink-wrapped and padded, which will protect them while in transit and prevent the drawers from opening.

What payment methods do you accept?

Arrow Down

Tidal Town accepts cash and all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express). Payment is due upon completion of your move. Note that there is a 3% processing fee for credit card payments. A detailed invoice is provided showing start time, end time, hourly rate, and any additional services.
