Florida moves are among our longest routes at 1,750-2,100 miles. A typical 2-3 bedroom home move ranges from $7,500-$13,000 depending on city and inventory. Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville fall in the middle of that range; Naples and Sarasota run slightly higher due to the southern detour. We provide detailed written quotes with no hidden fees.

Delivery timelines run 5-7 days depending on the destination. Jacksonville (Florida's closest major metro from CS) is typically 5 days; Tampa and Orlando run 5-6 days; Naples and Sarasota are 6-7 days due to the longer drive down the Gulf Coast. We provide specific delivery windows with every quote and update you en route.

We have dedicated long-distance routes to Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Naples, and Sarasota. We also quote custom moves to Miami, Fort Lauderdale, the Panhandle (Pensacola, Destin), and the Keys. If your Florida destination isn't listed on our site, call us - we move anywhere in the state.

Hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30, with peak risk August-October. We monitor National Hurricane Center forecasts and may adjust routing or delivery windows for active storms. Most moves go through without issue, but we'll never put a truck or your belongings in the path of a major weather event - we'll reroute or delay 24-48 hours if needed.

Yes, all Florida-bound moves use climate-controlled trucks. The route crosses the humid Gulf Coast where uninsulated trailers can swing dramatically in temperature and moisture. Climate control protects wood furniture, leather, electronics, artwork, and anything sensitive to humidity over the multi-day haul.

It depends on the metro. Florida has no state income tax, which saves the average Colorado household $3,000-$8,000+ per year. However, property insurance is significantly higher in Florida (especially coastal counties) due to hurricane risk, and HOA fees in retirement communities can be substantial. Net savings are best for retirees and high earners; mid-income families see modest gains. The Save Our Homes cap on primary-residence property tax assessments is a long-term advantage.

Naples and Sarasota are the top retirement destinations on our Florida route list - both offer Gulf Coast beaches, walkable downtowns, top-tier healthcare (Naples in particular ranks among the healthiest U.S. cities for seniors), and active 55+ communities. The Villages near Orlando is another major retirement hub. Tampa is popular with younger retirees who want big-city amenities.

Yes. Jacksonville is home to Naval Air Station Jacksonville and Naval Station Mayport, and we handle PCS moves between Colorado Springs installations and Jacksonville Navy commands. We understand military timelines, weight allowances, and DPS coordination requirements.

Our standard Florida route follows I-25 South to I-40 East across New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee, then south on I-65 or I-75 into Florida depending on the destination metro. For Tampa/Naples/Sarasota we cut south earlier via I-65 to I-10 East. Total transit is 5-7 days with regulated driver rest stops.
