Moving from Port St. Lucie to Pembroke Pines is a short-haul move of roughly 103 road miles, heading south within Florida.
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 2 h 29 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,990 and $2,960, before packing or storage.
On the Port St. Lucie side there are 271 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (104 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,479 around Pembroke Pines (829 interstate).

Port St. Lucie has a population of about 268,062 and Pembroke Pines about 176,714. Pembroke Pines is the denser city (5,235 people per square mile versus 1,719 in Port St. Lucie), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

About 103 road miles (88 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 29 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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 Port St. Lucie 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 $260 to $360 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,110 to $1,640. 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 Port St. Lucie–Pembroke Pines corridor.
