Moving from Pembroke Pines to Alexandria is a long-distance move of roughly 1,068 road miles, heading north from Florida to Virginia.

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 $4,960 to $7,380 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 19 h 7 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 1,203 around Alexandria (740 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 Alexandria.

Pembroke Pines has a population of about 176,714 and Alexandria about 160,662. Alexandria is the denser city (10,702 people per square mile versus 5,235 in Pembroke Pines), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Virginia 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 Alexandria 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 Alexandria?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,980 to $2,950 for a studio, $2,980 to $4,430 for a one-bedroom, $4,960 to $7,380 for a two-bedroom, $7,930 to $11,810 for a three-bedroom and $10,910 to $16,230 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Alexandria from Pembroke Pines?

About 1,068 road miles (905 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 7 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 Virginia 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 Alexandria?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,550 to $2,180 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,970 to $2,900. 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–Alexandria corridor.
