Moving from Miami Beach to Miami

A South Beach walk-up, a Collins Avenue condo, an apartment in North Beach: two movers load on the island, cross the bay in the Sprinter van and carry everything into your new place in Brickell, Downtown, Edgewater or Midtown. Same crew, same van, on our hourly card.

What this move is for

  • Studios and light 1-bedrooms. One van holds about 500 cubic feet, roughly a studio or a light 1-bedroom. For more, we can send 2, 3 or 4 crews with vans, subject to crew availability (see Capsule moving). We don't have any big trucks, vans only.
  • Beach to the mainland. A lease ending in South Beach or Mid-Beach and a new apartment closer to work in Brickell or Downtown.
  • A few pieces. A bed, a dresser or a sofa going from a Miami Beach condo to family or a new rental in Miami.

The route across the bay

The causeway depends on where you live. From South Beach, the MacArthur Causeway (I-395) leads to Downtown and Brickell. The Venetian Causeway is the slower, lower-traffic option between the 17th Street area and Downtown near Edgewater. From Mid-Beach, the Julia Tuttle Causeway (I-195) at 41st Street lands near Midtown and the Design District. From North Beach, the 79th Street Causeway comes over to the Upper Eastside.

Traffic onto the causeways is heavy on weekday evenings and busy weekends, so a morning start usually uses less of the clock.

Buildings and curbs at both ends

Collins Avenue towers usually want the service elevator reserved and a certificate of insurance on file, and so do the towers in Brickell, Downtown and Edgewater. Curb space on South Beach streets such as Washington Avenue, Alton Road and Meridian Avenue is tight, so tell us where the van can stop and send photos of the stairs in walk-ups. Our high-roof Sprinter is taller than a car, so send the garage clearance too.

Pricing

2 movers + Sprinter van: $195 for the first hour · Then $165/hour per crew, billed in 30-minute increments · No stair fees

The drive between your two addresses is part of the billed time, so a longer route takes more of it. You get a written estimate before the job from photos and both addresses in the chat. One or two items only? That's a flat rate instead. Early-morning and evening rates are on the pricing page →

A certificate of insurance (COI) is always available for the building at either end. Adding a building as additionally insured is $75.

Miami Beach to Miami questions

How much does a Miami Beach to Miami move cost?

It's hourly: $195 for the first hour for 2 movers + the van, then $165/hour per crew, in 30-minute increments, and the drive from Miami Beach to Miami is part of that time. Send photos and both addresses in the chat and you get a written estimate before the job.

I live in a South Beach walk-up. Is there a stair fee?

No. There's no stair fee. Send photos of the stairs, the biggest pieces and where the van can stop, so the crew and the estimate are planned for them.

Can you move a whole 2-bedroom?

One van holds about 500 cubic feet, roughly a studio or a light 1-bedroom. For more, we can send 2, 3 or 4 crews with vans, subject to crew availability (see Capsule moving). We don't have any big trucks, vans only.

Both buildings want a COI. Can you send them?

Yes, for the building at either end. Send each building's certificate holder name, address and wording. A COI is always available; adding a building as additional insured is $75.
