What to Expect When Moving from Florida to California
Travel Route
Planning your route helps you get an exact price with today’s gas rates. The most direct route from Florida to California is I-10 West, which runs from Jacksonville all the way to Santa Monica, California.
If you take your private car, you will pass through Tallahassee, New Orleans, Houston, and Phoenix. For a scenic drive, you could take a detour through I-40 West or I-20 West but it will take longer costing more.
Lifestyle
Adjusting from Florida’s laid-back beach life to the beaches of California isn’t too hard. Beach life to beach life is the vibe here. The cultural vibes of Florida and California are quite similar.
CA has a great night life scene that rival’s Miami so I advise you check it out and get back with us about which is more fun of a city!

That’s why we vet all our movers, and that’s why we do a little secret shopping to make sure they’re staying honest and staying sharp.

Answering Florida to California Moving FAQs
Moving in Florida can take anywhere from 7 to 21 days. There are a number of different factors at play here, but like the price of your move, it all comes down to the miles and the mass.
Drivers aren’t allowed to clock more than 400 miles of interstate travel per day. That 400-per-day rule is a good way to figure out the baseline for your move’s duration.
But aside from rules and regulations, movers typically bundle smaller moves together to avoid wasted space in a truck or trailer.
It keeps costs down (and your stuff will be safely separated), but there may be delays for pickups and deliveries if you’re just moving a small amount of belongings.
If you want to really prepare for moving day, we recommend starting early. Like, WAY EARLY. Start planning at least two or three months in advance, and try to downsize as much as possible before you start shopping for moving quotes. If you’re doing your own packing, start with your least-used items, and slowly work your way to your most-used items.
PS: If you’re looking for more last-minute advice, we recommend putting all your daily essentials in one easy-to-access backpack or suitcase. That way you won’t have to dig through tons of boxes just to find your toothbrush.
The cheapest way to move is to DIY. At least, on paper. Unfortunately, after you rent a truck, pay for gas, shell out extra money for food and lodging, and skip out on all those paychecks so you can wrap, pack, load, and haul all by yourself, your savings may not be what you expected. It may cost a little extra, but a full service move is way more efficient.
Legit moving companies will be certified by the Department of Transportation (DOT), and if they operate across state lines, they’ll need to be certified by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as well. When you’re on their website, look for a DOT number and an MC number. If you can’t find them, don’t be afraid to ask!
