Local Moving Pricing & Written Estimates

Request a written estimate for your move

A useful moving price starts with the work involved, not just the number of bedrooms. Surf Moving, LLC provides local moving services across Hallandale Beach, Aventura, Sunny Isles Beach, Hollywood, North Miami Beach, North Miami and nearby South Florida communities. Tell us both addresses, your inventory and the access conditions so you can review an estimate for your own move.

Use the calculator above for a preliminary crew-and-truck estimate, then request a written estimate for your inventory and access conditions.

Local moving rates

The hourly rate applies to the whole crew, not each mover. The calculator covers one moving day. Packing materials and special-item work, if needed, are quoted separately. Packing-only and labor-only requests need a separate estimate.

How Our Billing Works

• Billable time begins when the crew arrives at the pickup location and stops when work finishes at the final delivery location.
• Travel between pickup, additional stops and delivery locations is billable.
• A 3-hour minimum applies. Billable time is always rounded UP to the next 15-minute increment, never down or to the nearest increment.
• The daily truck fee is separate from crew labor and included in the displayed minimum total. Each minimum includes 3 billable hours and one day of truck use.
• No separate parking or Certificate of Insurance (COI) fees. Fuel, tolls and mileage are included.
• The agreed hourly crew rate stays unchanged if the job takes longer.

For example, 2 movers for 3 hours 1 minute is billed as 3.25 hours: $419.25 crew labor + $129 daily truck fee = $548.25. Packing materials and special-item work, if needed, remain separately quoted.

What changes the scope and estimated time?

• Crew size and inventory: list furniture, approximate box count, storage contents and items needing disassembly. A larger crew does not automatically mean a lower total; the scope and access matter.
• Travel and additional stops: provide pickup and delivery addresses, plus any storage stop. Travel between pickup, additional stops and delivery is billable; fuel, tolls and mileage are included.
• Packing and materials: identify which rooms you will pack yourself and where you need help. Confirm the labor and materials included, and any items priced separately.
• Stairs, elevators and building rules: share floor numbers, elevator dimensions, permitted moving hours and reservation windows. Waiting for access can affect the plan; ask how waiting time is treated.
• Long carries and loading: describe the walking distance from the truck to the door, loading dock access, parking restrictions and clearance limits.
• Heavy or unusual items: describe the size, approximate weight and access route for oversized, fragile or unusually heavy pieces. Confirm acceptance and the handling plan before including them in the move.

These are estimate questions, not a list of automatic Surf Moving surcharges. Your written estimate should identify which conditions and charges apply to your move.

Condo paperwork and COI requests

Certificate of Insurance is available upon request. Send the building's current written requirements, submission deadline and management contact early. Surf Moving does not charge a separate COI fee or parking fee. Building deposits or reservation fees, if required by management, should be distinguished from the mover's charges.

Use our COI checklist and condo moving guide to prepare the access details.

Review these details before booking

• The company name, move date, addresses and agreed inventory.
• The pricing method, crew arrangement, estimated time and any minimum.
• Included packing, materials, equipment and any separately quoted work.
• Travel, parking, waiting time and building-related conditions.
• Payment, deposit, cancellation and rescheduling terms.
• How changes to the inventory or scope will be documented.

Keep the written estimate and tell your coordinator if the inventory, access or date changes. An online request is not a confirmed booking. Confirm availability and the agreed scope directly with Surf Moving.

Prepare your estimate request

Send your preferred date, both addresses, a furniture list, approximate box count, packing needs and building instructions. You can discuss the estimate details in English; Russian-speaking coordination is also available. No particular crew language is guaranteed.
