*Based on recent Boston, MA → Miami, FL moves. Exact pricing depends on inventory, access, and any specialty items such as pianos or safes.
Move & Care has a flat rate for interstate moves. That is, the cost listed on your moving quote is the cost you'll have to pay for the move: no fuel surcharges, ladder fees or weekend surcharges. This price will not change after the actual work, the price is final. This cost includes professional movers, truck, all possible tolls, gasoline, basic insurance, the mandatory $50 equipment kit, and a Сertificate of Insurance for Boston curbs or Miami high-rise elevators.
How does the rate with Move & Care work out? First we take into account mileage (≈1,500 mi along I-95), then we list your inventory and note any special items (e.g. piano ($160), baby grand ($240), items all 200 lbs (from $60)) and take into account any extras like packing or storage needs (you can customize services: “pack only kitchen” or “move only large items”). The cost of a 1-3 bedroom move from Boston to Miami varies along this route ranged from about $3,500 to $8,000, but the quickest way to determine your cost is to request a free estimate; our coordinator will walk you through your options and send you an estimate in writing.
A live or FaceTime visual survey is available—and 100% free
Payment is easy: cash earns a 5 % discount, while cards add the unavoidable 3.5 % processing fee. Either way, your deposit locks in the date and the flat rate—no surprises later.
Sample 1,500-Mile Moving Timeline
Moving from Boston to Miami with Move & Care takes an average of two to four days. A typical move from Boston to Miami begins with Move & Care movers leaving Greater Boston at first light on the first day of the move. Then the move begins on the 1,500-mile I-95 corridor through as many as nine states with an overnight stop in the Carolinas. By Day 3, the movers arrive in South Florida. Deliveries are made on Day 3 or Day 4 depending on the scope of the job, the moment the movers leave Boston, and the elevator reservations in Brickell high-rises or driveways in Coral Gables and Miami Beach. Each evening, your coordinator will send you one GPS coordinate update so you always know the truck's location and are sure to meet your Massachusetts boxes at the new location in Miami.
What to Know Before Moving from Boston to Miami
As you change from bitter cold weather to subtropical heat, you should rethink your closet and packing strategy. According to the National Weather Service, Miami's average summer humidity is nearly 20% higher than Boston's, so we pack winter coats and electronics in moisture-proof containers or load them into our climate-controlled compartment upon request.
Sometimes in Boston, especially on narrow historic streets, to accommodate a truck will require a parking permit for a curbside loading moving truck, while many Miami condo boards insist on an elevator reservation. We are ready to help with both permits, let you know the size of the truck, post all the necessary signs and have your building manager proof the move. Also, during Florida hurricane season (June-November), we monitor NOAA advisories and, if necessary, adjust the route or delivery window of your belongings to avoid accidents and ensure the safety of your belongings and schedule.
Finally, remember that Move & Care does more than drop boxes: we reassemble every bed, provide moving blankets for your furniture free of charge to protect it in transit, position furniture until rooms feel right, and remove all packing debris before we roll out—so you can start exploring South Florida instead of wrestling with trash bags.
The Moving Process (Boston to Miami)
Preparation
Your dedicated coordinator—an FMCSA-certified specialist with a decade of long-distance experience—conducts a quick video survey, inventories each item, and arranges the Boston curb permit. We deliver boxes and other packing supplies delivered in a week or other time frame if you purchased them from us, and we schedule a sunrise departure (if possible, based on your schedule) to beat New York traffic.
Moving Day
A uniformed crew pads, shrink-wraps, and bar-codes every piece, then loads our air-ride truck. Two licensed drivers alternate shifts while nightly GPS pings keep you informed. If winter weather or a tropical system threatens, we reroute in minutes to preserve the timeline.
Delivery & Unpacking
By Day 3, we’re in Miami-Dade. Elevator reserved, COI on file, our movers reassemble furniture, place rugs and artwork exactly where you point, and haul away every scrap of packing material. After a joint walkthrough confirms everything arrived in perfect shape, you’re free to swap your Red Sox cap for sunscreen and hit the beach.
F.A.Q. about Moving from Boston to Miami
We follow federal and state guidelines on prohibited items. Generally, movers will not transport:
- Hazardous materials: e.g., gasoline, propane tanks, paints, chemicals, firearms, fireworks – anything flammable or explosive.
- Perishables: food that can spoil (to prevent messes or attracting pests).
- Plants: Long trips can kill plants, and some states regulate bringing plants across state lines (to prevent pests).
- Pets: We don’t move live animals – you’ll need to make pet travel arrangements (we can refer you to pet relocation specialists if needed).
- Personal valuables: We recommend you carry jewelry, important documents, cash, and small electronics with you for security.
When you book with us, we’ll provide a complete list of non-allowables and help you plan around them (e.g., safely disposing of flammables or shipping certain items separately).
Miami has a hurricane season from June through November. If you’re moving during that period, we’ll keep an eye on tropical weather forecasts. In case of a hurricane or tropical storm approaching, we’d adjust the schedule for safety (and keep you fully informed).
On the Boston side, if you’re moving in winter, snow and ice are considerations – we have experience with New England winter moves and come prepared (shovels, floor protection, etc.).
No matter the season, we take precautions to protect your belongings from weather, like using waterproof packing materials and securing items tightly in the truck.

Typically about 2–4 days in transit. The driving distance is roughly 1,500 miles, which is about 24 hours of wheel time.
Our team usually schedules pickup in Boston and then delivery in Miami within 2 or 3 days. The exact timing can vary based on factors like weather or traffic.
We’ll provide a delivery window before your move starts, and you can track the truck’s progress (all our trucks have GPS). Rest assured, we aim to get your belongings to Miami quickly and safely, without unnecessary delays.

We provide two levels of coverage for your move. Basic coverage (Released Value Protection) is included free with every move – it covers your items at 60 cents per pound per item. This is a minimal level of protection (common in the moving industry).
For greater peace of mind, we offer Full Value Protection at an additional cost – this means if an item is lost or damaged, we will repair it or compensate you for its full current value.
We’ll explain these options and their costs when you get a quote, so you can choose the coverage that best suits your needs. Our goal is to ensure you feel fully protected.

In short: for a Boston to Miami move, the cheapest rates almost always fall on Tuesday or Wednesday, with Monday and Thursday close behind.
Weekends and the last-and-first few days of each month command the highest prices because trucks and crews are already spoken for.
If you can schedule during Boston’s late-fall-to-early-spring “off-season” (October – April) and avoid Miami’s June-to-November hurricane window, you’ll stack another 10–25 percent in savings on top of the mid-week discount.
