Tampa movers for local and long-distance moves

A move goes well when the estimate is in writing, the crew shows up in the window they gave you, and the truck is big enough. Call or send a request and you'll get a quote before you commit to a date.

  • Registered and insured Florida mover
  • A written estimate before moving day
  • Arrival window confirmed the day before
  • Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties

How it works

  1. Call or send a request. Tell us where you're moving from and to, the size of the home, and the date you have in mind.
  2. Get a written estimate. Based on an inventory by phone, video or a walkthrough. Hourly or flat-rate, and it says which.
  3. Lock in the date. You get a confirmed day and an arrival window, with a reminder call the day before.
  4. Moving day. The crew pads and wraps furniture, loads, drives, unloads and places things where you want them.

What moving in Tampa Bay actually involves

Heat, afternoon storms, condo elevators and a few bridges shape every move here more than mileage does.

Summer heat

Loading a truck in August is hard, slow work. Crews start early, and a move that would take four hours in March can take five in July.

Local moving

Condo and high-rise rules

Downtown, Channelside and the waterfront condos require elevator reservations, certificates of insurance and loading-dock windows that have to be booked ahead.

Apartment and condo moving

Storms and hurricane season

From June through November a move can get rained out by 3 p.m. or postponed by a storm. Flexible dates and covered storage are worth planning for.

Storage

Long distances inside Florida

Tampa to Miami, Jacksonville or Orlando is still an intrastate move under Florida rules, which means a written estimate and a registered mover.

Long-distance moving

Where we work

Tampa and the communities around it in Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties.

Common questions

How far ahead should I book movers in Tampa?

Two to four weeks for a local move, more in May through August and at the end of any month. Last-minute moves can often be fit in, but the dates are tighter.

Is the mover registered?

Moving services are performed by a registered and insured Florida mover. Intrastate movers in Florida register with the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, and you can look up any mover's registration there.

Hourly or flat rate?

Local moves are usually hourly with a crew-size and truck charge; long-distance moves are usually a flat rate based on inventory and distance. The written estimate says which applies to yours.

What areas do you serve?

Tampa and the surrounding communities in Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties, plus long-distance moves to and from anywhere in Florida and out of state. See the service area list.

What should I do before the crew arrives?

Have boxes sealed and labeled, a parking spot reserved for the truck, and anything you're taking yourself (documents, medication, valuables) set aside in a car or a closed room.
