Picture This: Carvana Distribution Facility

Arizona-based used-car seller Carvana sought an expansion for its distribution footprint in Chesterfield County. The company purchased a 183-acre site located at 15100 Woods Edge Rd in Chesterfield in 2021 for $2.8M, a significant investment in the future of the Richmond MSA’s automobile-based economic development.

The facility can hold around 10,000 vehicles, which are distributed to the company’s vending machines across the country. Plans for the facility went through a scrupulous process, and the 191,000 SF center opened in July 2022 where it can employ up to 400 workers for daily operations.

Timmons Group provided site and civil engineering, survey, and landscape architecture services on this project. The Carvana Distribution Facility was recognized at this year’s 22nd annual GRACRE Awards for Industrial Project. See the 2023 GRACRE award winners.
