Reverse: Hollywood → Fort Lauderdale

Hollywood sits about 11 miles south of Fort Lauderdale, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a local move.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 21 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,080 and $1,610, before packing or storage.

On the Fort Lauderdale side there are 1,841 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (706 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,315 around Hollywood (807 interstate). For an in-state 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 Hollywood.

Fort Lauderdale has a population of about 188,677 and Hollywood about 157,019. The two cities have comparable density (5,282 and 5,607 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Tips for this move

Ask for an hourly quote with a not-to-exceed cap; local crews in Fort Lauderdale bill from the moment they leave the warehouse.
Reserve loading-zone parking or a building elevator in advance—waiting time is billable.
Move on a weekday if you can; weekend and month-end slots fill first and cost more.
Disassemble beds and desks yourself to trim an hour off the crew's time.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Fort Lauderdale to Hollywood?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $550 to $820 for a studio, $660 to $990 for a one-bedroom, $1,080 to $1,610 for a two-bedroom, $1,710 to $2,550 for a three-bedroom and $2,600 to $3,870 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Hollywood from Fort Lauderdale?

About 11 road miles (8 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood are in Florida, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Fort Lauderdale to Hollywood?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $160 to $230 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,030 to $1,510. 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 Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood corridor.
