Editorial Review

Our Take on The Movers Moving & Storage

A long running local mover with storage under the same roof, which helps when closing dates do not line up. Its federal record covers moves inside Florida only, so ask about out of state moves.

    Above and beyond the service with smiles and consideration for home, for people and time. Work ethic and time efficiency is excellent! They moved heavy furniture from a large home. Todd’s crew did the job being careful with everything and eager to do it well. Customer satisfaction is a 10 out of 10.

    The Movers are the REAL DEAL !!!<br>Cal (Owner), Todd, Allen, Al, Matt, Jason.<br>Not a single scratch, no broken glass. Every piece of furniture wrapped in blankets. We have a LOT of glass, art, liquor, etc. EVERYTHING arrived intact. All floors protected with runners. Staircase walls lined with cardboard and blankets. A piece from our second floor weighs 300 pounds, solid wood and iron. They took the time to discuss a strategy, then brought it down what I call a "Switchback" staircase. Not a single wall ding, no scratches. Remarkable. The guys are very personable. They are there for YOU. Who does not hate moving? The Movers, that's who. This is the moving company that you want. PERIOD!!!

    Having worked on moving trucks in my youth. I wanted to make sure my moms move was done by professionals who took the extra step to protect the furniture and handle everything with care. The crew that came to my moms move wrapped all the furniture in moving pads then plastic wrapped everything. You rarely see that. The crew was extremely professional and friendly and I definitely am using this company when we are ready to move out of state. This company comes highly recommended.

    Absolutely the most horrible moving company that I have used in my 16 years of Real estate. My clients dining room Furniture was broken in which they argued that it was that way to begin with yet it was standing upright very steady when they started to move into their truck! Never again what I use this company nor would I recommend them

Company Background

About The Movers Moving & Storage

The Movers Moving & Storage is a Tampa company based at 4501 N Florida Ave, in the Seminole Heights stretch of Florida Avenue. Its about page says it was founded in 1980, and its Google profile calls it a third generation, family owned business. It also lists a St. Petersburg office.

The service menu covers local moves, same day moves, moving labor, piano moving, business moves, final mile delivery, junk removal, long distance moves, packing and boxes. Storage is a big part of the pitch: van hold storage keeps a loaded truck parked until your new place is ready, and short and long term storage are offered too.

The site footer gives Florida registration IM 3194 and USDOT 1970687. FMCSA lists that USDOT number for The Movers Moving & Storage Inc at the Florida Avenue address, cleared for intrastate operation only. That fits a mover focused on moves inside Florida. For a move to another state, ask who will carry the shipment and under which interstate authority before you sign.

Its photos show branded box trucks on Tampa streets, including one parked in Ybor City.
