Reverse: Portland → Davie

Portland sits about 1,580 miles north of Davie, which makes this an interstate relocation from Florida to Maine that most movers classify as a cross-country move.

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 $6,110 to $9,090 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 27 hours (4 driving days).

On the Davie side there are 1,589 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (600 of them authorized for interstate work), and 113 around Portland (63 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 Portland.

Davie has a population of about 110,851 and Portland about 69,000. The two cities have comparable density (3,028 and 3,176 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Maine does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Davie to Portland?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,440 to $3,640 for a studio, $3,670 to $5,450 for a one-bedroom, $6,110 to $9,090 for a two-bedroom, $9,770 to $14,540 for a three-bedroom and $13,440 to $20,000 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Portland from Davie?

About 1,580 road miles (1,339 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 27 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Florida into Maine makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Davie to Portland?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,220 to $3,140 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,430 to $3,570. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Davie–Portland corridor.
