About This Company

Founded by the visionary Howard Foster in 1941, Foster Van Lines began its journey by transporting furniture and luggage from bustling train stations to cater to the burgeoning population. With every successful relocation, their reputation soared, and they soon became the preferred choice among Richmond moving companies. But they didn't stop there; Foster Van Lines spread its wings and expanded its horizons. They grew into a nationwide force from a local business, now serving families and businesses across all 48 contiguous states. And who better to partner with than the legendary North American Van Lines? Together, they embraced long-distance interstate and international moving services, epitomizing customer care and satisfaction.
