If you want help, your PODS personal moving and storage team will connect you with local packing and loading companies.

Keep it

At-home storage gives you the flexibility you need, whether you want easy storage just steps away, or you want to take your time packing and loading.

Store it

If you need temporary storage, we'll pick up your loaded container and bring it to a local PODS Storage Center, where it will be safe, secure, and easily accessible until you need it again.

Move it

We've got this, so you don't have to. We'll deliver your container to your new home, whether you're moving across town or across the country*. If you need to ship your car, we can connect you with one of our preferred car shipping providers who will arrange professional services in your area.

Roanoke and Lynchburg are two distinct, independent cities located in western Virginia. While Roanoke is nestled in a valley west of the Blue Ridge Mountains and bisected by the Roanoke River, Lynchburg lies in the eastern foothills along the banks of the James River. If you're planning a move to Roanoke or Lynchburg, consider taking advantage of the moving and storage solutions from PODS. You can move, store, or both!

Moving to Roanoke - Lynchburg

Roanoke and Lynchburg are both great places to raise a family. As the largest city in the area, Roanoke is sometimes referred to as the "Capital of the Blue Ridge." It’s also nicknamed "Star City" after the Mill Mountain Star, the city's most iconic landmark. Lynchburg, meanwhile, has been called the "City of Seven Hills" and is home to Liberty University.

For the best schools in Roanoke, consider moving into a neighborhood near the outer edges of the city, such as the Cloverdale, Bonsack, Clearbrook, Starkey, Bent Mountain, or Poages Mill. Closer to the city center, the Brambleton Avenue, Electric Road and Cave Spring neighborhoods are standouts. These same neighborhoods tend to be among the safest in Roanoke, as well.

Thanks to an abundance of universities, colleges, and employers, either Roanoke or Lynchburg can be a great choice for young professionals, as well. Wards Road and Candlers Mountain Road are located conveniently close to Liberty University, while Timberlake Road is packed with restaurants and other amenities. Boonsboro is among the nicest neighborhoods within city limits, but the outlying areas of Forest and Madison Heights are also popular.

Things to Do and See in Roanoke - Lynchburg

Roanoke is the larger of the two cities, but both offer plenty to do and see. If you're interested in art and culture, Roanoke is home to several art galleries and live music venues. It lies along the Crooked Road, Virginia's Heritage Music Trail. For performing arts, check out the Southwest Virginia Ballet and the Roanoke Symphony Orchestra as well as Mill Mountain Theatre and Star City Playhouse.

Don't forget to enjoy the area's natural beauty, too. Poplar Forest, a plantation owned by Thomas Jefferson, is only minutes away from Lynchburg in Forest, Virginia. Walk along the Appalachian Trail, or hike the Mill Mountain Star Trail to get a closer look at the distinctive Roanoke landmark. Nearby state parks include Smith Mountain Lake, Claytor Lake, and Fairy Stone State Park.

Wherever you decide to settle down in Roanoke and Lynchburg, you'll find something to do for nearly every type of resident. Looking for more time, extra space, or help during your move? Trust PODS moving and storage to minimize the stress so you can spend less time worrying about logistics and more time getting settled in your new home.
