Reverse: Akron → Pembroke Pines

Akron sits about 1,231 miles north of Pembroke Pines, which makes this an interstate relocation from Florida to Ohio that most movers classify as a 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 $5,120 to $7,610 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 21 h 55 min.

On the Pembroke Pines side there are 2,479 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (829 of them authorized for interstate work), and 349 around Akron (215 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 Akron.

Pembroke Pines has a population of about 176,714 and Akron about 189,691. Pembroke Pines is considerably denser (5,235 people per square mile versus 3,077), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Ohio does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Tips for this move

Ask how the delivery window is calculated and what the delay compensation is.
Declutter first: long-haul pricing is by weight, so every hundred pounds you sell or donate saves money.
Check whether a shuttle truck is needed in Akron if a 53-foot trailer cannot reach your street.
Keep vehicle titles, passports and prescriptions with you; movers cannot carry some items at all.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Pembroke Pines to Akron?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,050 to $3,050 for a studio, $3,070 to $4,570 for a one-bedroom, $5,120 to $7,610 for a two-bedroom, $8,190 to $12,180 for a three-bedroom and $11,260 to $16,750 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Akron from Pembroke Pines?

About 1,231 road miles (1,043 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 55 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Ohio 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 Pembroke Pines to Akron?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,710 to $2,420 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,120 to $3,120. 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 Pembroke Pines–Akron corridor.
