Frequently asked questions

How much do movers cost in Florida?

Local movers in Florida typically charge $135 to $225 per hour depending on crew size. A two-bedroom local move usually totals $1,090 to $1,620; a 1,000-mile interstate move of the same home runs $4,720 to $7,020.

Which Florida cities have the most moving companies?

On this platform Pembroke Pines (2,479), Hollywood (2,315), Hialeah (2,142), Miami (2,024), Fort Lauderdale (1,841) lead the state by number of FMCSA-registered household-goods carriers.

Do I need a licensed mover for a move within Florida?

Moves that stay inside Florida are regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Most states require intrastate movers to hold a state permit or registration in addition to a USDOT number; the company cards on each city page show the USDOT number so you can verify it.
