What's different about special item transport in Orlando

Humid subtropical: NOAA 1991–2020 normals show a 63°F average January low and 91°F average July high, ~51.5 in of annual rainfall concentrated June–September, and high year-round humidity. Orlando is inland (no storm surge) but sits in the Atlantic/Gulf hurricane belt (June–Nov) and gets frequent summer lightning/thunderstorms; freeze events are rare.

Per the City of Orlando's 2023 ACS report, of 152,600 housing units only 32.3% are single-family detached (9.4% attached, the rest multi-unit); 31.4% of units were built before 1980, and 60.5% of occupied units are renter- vs. 39.5% owner-occupied — largely slab-on-grade construction with no basements.

What moves the price in Orlando

  • Item weight and dimensions (slate pool tables and heavy safes need larger crews and equipment)
  • Local vs. long-distance/cross-country transport
  • Access: stairs, narrow hallways, tight doorways, elevators
  • Disassembly/reassembly and re-leveling or re-tuning after the move
  • Insurance, crating, and climate control for high-value antiques/art

Licensing and permits in Florida

Licence required. Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), Household Moving Services. Confirm the mover's FDACS registration number (renewed every 2 years) and proof of at least $10,000 cargo liability coverage before booking.

Residential building permits in Florida are issued by the local building department — the county building division for unincorporated areas, or the city's building department if the property is within municipal limits (not a single statewide office). In Orlando, permits come from the City of Orlando Permitting Services Division (Economic Development Department).

Tax: Labor to install or repair items that become part of real property (e.g., a water heater, HVAC system, cabinets) is generally NOT taxable when separately stated, but the materials/parts used are taxable; labor to repair tangible personal property that stays personal property (not attached to real property) IS taxable unless the job is labor-only with no parts installed.

Best time to book in Orlando

Late spring through early fall (peak home-moving season) sees the highest demand and prices; booking in winter (excluding the holiday season) typically gets faster scheduling and better rates. Peak demand: May, June, July, August and September. Typical job length: 2-4 hours (local); 1-2 weeks for long-distance/crated shipping.

DIY or pro? A two-person crew with a dolly and moving blankets can shift light single items, but pianos, safes over ~300 lbs, hot tubs, and slate pool tables need specialty rigging (piano boards, safe skates, hydraulic dollies) and a trained crew — DIY risks injury and item/property damage.
