Pricing guidance
What shapes the final estimate.
- Move distance and whether the shipment is local, intrastate, or interstate
- Shipment size, item count, estimated weight, and required crew size
- Hourly minimums, travel time, truck charges, fuel charges, or flat-rate terms
- Stairs, elevator delays, long carries, restricted loading areas, and parking availability
- Packing or unpacking labor, cartons, protective materials, and custom crating
- Disassembly and reassembly requested in advance
- Pianos, safes, pool tables, appliances, artwork, antiques, or other specialty items
- Storage, warehouse handling, redelivery, and access terms
- Move date, scheduling constraints, closing uncertainty, and storm-related changes
- Valuation selection and other charges documented in the written estimate
Options
Choose the right level of help.
- Verify the applicable registration
- For a move entirely within Florida, check the mover through the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. For an interstate move, use FMCSA Protect Your Move and Company Snapshot resources. Registration is not an endorsement.
- Compare complete written estimates
- Evaluate crew size, minimum hours, travel time, truck or fuel charges, access fees, materials, valuation, storage, cancellation terms, and delivery conditions—not only the headline rate.
- Confirm carrier or broker status
- For interstate service, determine whether the business will transport the shipment or arrange transportation through another carrier, and confirm that names and registration details match the paperwork.
- Plan for Tampa access constraints
- Ask property management about elevator reservations, loading windows, parking rules, deposits, and insurance-document requirements. Check City of Tampa authorization requirements before occupying public right-of-way.
- Prepare for hurricane season
- Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through November 30. Review postponement, deposit, storage, delivery-window, and communication terms in case unsafe conditions interrupt the move.
- Understand valuation terms
- Valuation defines contractual liability for loss or damage and is not necessarily an insurance policy. Review the available options and claims terms before signing.
