Congratulations! Moving to Florida from California could easily get expensive, so budgeting for it ahead of time is a must. Generally speaking, it’s possible you could expect a move from Florida to California to cost somewhere between $2,000 and nearly $20,000.
How much moving to Florida from California will cost depends on your move’s specific logistics. Here are just some of the factors that will influence the cost of a move:
  • The distance of your move
  • The size of your move
  • Whether you’re hiring movers, renting a U-Haul, or moving everything yourself
  • The number of movers you need
  • How many flights of stairs movers will have to climb—and whether the building has an elevator
  • Whether you’re moving valuable items that need additional protection
  • Costs for moving supplies like tape, packing materials, and boxes
  • Whether you’re paying for professional packing/unpacking services
  • Whether movers need to transport any special items, like pianos or heavy furniture
  • Whether you’re driving or flying yourself to your new home—driving could likely involve gas and hotel or camping costs while flying would involve your plane ticket and any additional baggage
  • Whether you’re
    shipping a vehicle
Once you know what kinds of supplies and services you’ll need, you can reach out to several reputable movers for cost estimates if you need them. Then, compare the benefits each one offers and how much they cost to select the option that’s right for you.
