The route from Cleveland, OH to Key West, FL covers roughly 1,379 miles by road, a south-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $5,480 to $8,150 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 24 hours (3 driving days).
On the Cleveland side there are 638 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (374 of them authorized for interstate work), and 7 around Key West (2 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Key West.
Cleveland has a population of about 363,608 and Key West about 25,000. The two cities have comparable density (4,796 and 4,723 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Florida levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.
