About Phoenix Staging + Design We are a busy, fast‑growing staging company with warehouse locations in Northern Virginia and Maryland. We stage hundreds of homes each year, which means we move a lot of furniture, run tight schedules, and rely heavily on strong teamwork and solid systems.

Our warehouses are the heartbeat of the operation. Designers can’t create great spaces without a logistics team that runs efficiently, stays organized, and thinks ahead. We value people who show up, communicate clearly, take pride in their work, and aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves.

We’re expanding quickly, and we’re building a team that’s reliable, detail‑driven, and ready to grow with us. If you want to be part of a company where your work directly impacts the quality of every project, and you like a job that keeps you moving, you’ll fit in here!
