Moving from Key West to Jacksonville is a long-distance move of roughly 885 road miles, heading north from Florida to North Carolina.
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 $4,320 to $6,420 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 15 h 58 min.
On the Key West side there are 7 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2 of them authorized for interstate work), and 59 around Jacksonville (31 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 Jacksonville.
Key West has a population of about 25,000 and Jacksonville about 74,000. Key West is considerably denser (4,723 people per square mile versus 1,490), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that North Carolina does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
