Household Moving Tips to Miami
While the city of Miami may not be the largest in the state of Florida (though you’d think it was, right?), it does anchor the largest metropolitan area in the state and the fifth-largest in the country.
The Miami metro area is home to over 5.5 million residents spread among three huge counties and close to 200 different cities of varying sizes. In other words, Miami is huge, and it’s one of the most popular household moving locations as a result.
But it’s not just because it’s huge – it’s also an incredibly popular location for people to move to because it’s a really beautiful area, particularly among the more higher-scale areas like beachfront properties and the like.
With so many different areas that household movers can transport your goods to, you’ll want to try and be as specific as possible when gathering up different quotes. On our specific quote form, zip codes work best, though if you have the name and state of the city you can choose that option as well.
Household movers will require specific addresses only after you book your order with them, much like auto transport companies. But they’ll still want to know which specific area of Miami you’re shipping to.
Likely, many of them won’t be able to get into the core of the city itself; if you’re shipping into downtown Miami or somewhere along the beach, your shipper may need to have a local moving company take your goods off their interstate moving van and then load them into smaller moving trucks that can maneuver through the crowded downtown metro area.
Household moving services to Miami will likely be cheaper if you’re shipping from another major metro area, though of course distance and your load’s size will take priority in terms of pricing.
Cross-country moves are usually the most expensive, particularly if you’re shipping via full-service moving as opposed to going with the more economical self-service option. Moving your goods from and to anywhere isn’t easy or cheap, but Miami is definitely on the list of easier and cheaper cities to ship your goods to and from.
