Families Who Moved With Post Tell Their Story

Local moves are billed hourly, and the rate we quote before booking covers the crew and truck together as one number. There are no separate fuel surcharges or per-item fees added at the end. If your move runs long because of a backyard playset or a storage unit stop, the clock keeps running at that same quoted rate.

The honest answer is that a full household with kids' gear, a storage unit, and a second stop will almost always take more time than a clean two-bedroom apartment. We would rather tell you that upfront than have you surprised when the invoice arrives.

Sometimes, yes. The reviewer above called on a Monday and moved that Thursday. Midweek dates in Tampa Bay tend to have better availability than weekends, which is worth knowing if your schedule has any flexibility. We cannot promise a specific slot until we check the calendar, but calling (813) 505-2560 is the fastest way to find out what is open.

Availability changes daily, so the sooner you call after your closing date or lease start is confirmed, the more options you will have to work with.

Stairs are part of the job, and we do not tack on a separate stair fee as a surprise at the end. That said, stairs slow the work down, and since local moves are hourly, a second-floor pickup and a second-floor delivery will take more time than a ground-level move. That is just the honest math of it.

When you call to book, tell us about both locations so we can give you a realistic time estimate rather than a number that looks good on paper but does not hold up on moving day.

This is worth understanding before moving day, not after. Florida's default carrier liability is 60 cents per pound per item. That means a damaged 50-pound dresser would be worth $30 under the state minimum, regardless of what you paid for it. We carry $2 million in liability coverage as a company, but that is not the same as full-value protection on your belongings.

Before your move date, ask us to walk you through your valuation options. Most people are far more upset by finding this out after a claim than by the damage itself, and we would rather have that conversation now.
