"DO NOT use this moving company. They will damaged your furniture, overcharge you and will do show up to your final destination. I can’t stress enough to go to someone more professional even if they are more expensive up front."

Moving within vs moving out of Florida

Let's see how many people move within Florida versus those who moved from Sunshine State to another state.

Moved Within FL
34%
Moved out of FL
66%

Statistically speaking, the share of out-of-state moves (66%) is much larger than that of local moves (34%) in the state of Florida.

Florida (Spanish for “land of flowers”) attracts millions of tourists, guests and retirees each year. And yet, the people moving out of the state outnumber those who have decided to move to another town or city within the same state – intrastate moving.

Who regulates Florida local movers

Any person who is involved in intrastate/local moving has to register annually with the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Consumer Services. This includes any person/company that transports household goods for profit within Florida. The Bureau of Compliance is the responsible regulatory authority that manages Intrastate Movers.

Agency: The Division of Consumer Services, Bureau of Compliance
Address: Terry Rhodes Building, 2005 Apalachee Parkway, Tallahassee, FL 32399-6500
Phone: (800) 435-7352
