Gainesville, FL → Pembroke Pines, FL · Regional long-distance move
About 332 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,830–$4,210, delivery in 1–3 days, 151 carriers on the Gainesville side and 2,479 in Pembroke Pines.
Pembroke Pines sits about 332 miles southeast of Gainesville, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a regional long-distance 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 $2,830 to $4,210 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 6 h 25 min.
On the Gainesville side there are 151 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (59 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,479 around Pembroke Pines (829 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 Pembroke Pines.
Gainesville has a population of about 148,671 and Pembroke Pines about 176,714. Pembroke Pines is the denser city (5,235 people per square mile versus 2,232 in Gainesville), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,250 to $1,870 for a studio, $1,700 to $2,530 for a one-bedroom, $2,830 to $4,210 for a two-bedroom, $4,530 to $6,740 for a three-bedroom and $6,230 to $9,270 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.
About 332 road miles (281 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 25 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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.
No. Because both Gainesville and Pembroke Pines 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $490 to $690 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,320 to $1,940. 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.
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 Gainesville–Pembroke Pines corridor.
