Boca Moving CompanyMovers in Pompano Beach and Lighthouse Point
Boca Moving Company is a licensed mover for homes and condos in Pompano Beach and Lighthouse Point, from beachfront buildings on A1A to canal homes near the Hillsboro Inlet. You get a written, itemized estimate before any work starts, and a $250 deposit holds a local move date.
Where we move in Pompano Beach and Lighthouse Point
Pompano Beach sits on the Atlantic coast just north of Fort Lauderdale, and the city officially recognizes about 40 neighborhoods and communities. We move homes and condos in all of them, including Palm Aire, Cypress Bend, Terra Mar, Garden Isles, Harbor Village, Hillsboro Shores, Santa Barbara Shores, Old Pompano, Downtown Pompano Beach, Cresthaven, Kendall Green and the Beach neighborhood.
Lighthouse Point is its own small city in northeastern Broward County, with Hillsboro Beach across the Intracoastal Waterway to the east. It is a separate municipality from Pompano Beach, so its rules can differ, and we plan each move with that in mind.
The beach side: A1A, the Hillsboro Inlet and condo buildings
Pompano Beach has about 3 miles of beachfront, running from where State Road A1A meets Terra Mar Drive north to the Hillsboro Inlet, which forms part of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. If you live in a condo building on the beach side, the association usually sets the terms before we set the schedule.
Before a condo move on the beach side, we handle
- The certificate of insurance your association asks for, sent straight to your building manager.
- The elevator reservation and loading area time, booked with the manager.
- The move window, so the crew starts and finishes inside the hours your building allows.
- Padding for elevators and hallways, the way your building requires.
- Measurements for large pieces against the elevator, doorways and turns, so nothing arrives that will not fit.
Canal homes in Lighthouse Point
Most of Lighthouse Point is built on canals dug in the 1950s and 1960s, which created a great deal of waterfront housing and made boating and fishing popular there. If your home has a patio, a dock area or outdoor furniture, tell us about it so the crew plans for it.
We look at access before moving day: where the truck parks, how far the crew carries to the door, and anything that has to come from the back of the house. Floors and door frames are covered before anything moves, furniture is padded and wrapped inside your home, and fragile pieces can be packed or crated.
Thinking about a storage container in your driveway?
If you plan to use a portable storage container during a Pompano Beach move or renovation, check the city's rules first. In residential districts, the city's temporary use rules allow a unit only in the driveway in most cases, for no more than 3 consecutive days and no more than 6 days in a calendar year, and a Minor Temporary Use Permit is required.
If you need more time than that, our storage vaults are another option. We pick up, wrap and inventory what goes into storage, hold it for as long as you need, and deliver it to your new home when you are ready. Lighthouse Point sets its own rules, so check with that city if you live there.
Seasonal residents and moves up and down the coast
If you split the year between Florida and another home, we can move the long distance part under our own federal authority (Boca Moving and Storage LLC, U.S. DOT No. 4320562, MC-1685659. Fla. Mover Reg. No. IM3963.) and store what stays behind until next season. Every interstate move starts with a survey of your goods and a written estimate, and a deposit of 35% of the estimate total reserves the date once it is signed.
Moves between Pompano Beach or Lighthouse Point and other cities in Broward and Palm Beach counties are local moves, including Fort Lauderdale, Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton and Delray Beach. If a storm threatens your date, call us at least the day before and we move you to the next available date at no charge.
Pompano Beach moving prices
Local moves within Palm Beach and Broward counties are priced by the hour: from $170 an hour with 2 movers or $230 with 3 movers, with a 3-hour minimum that includes 1 hour of travel, plus $120 for fuel. Homes with 4 or more bedrooms and moves with packing get a video or in-home estimate first, so the price fits the job.
The written estimate you sign before the move is your price. A $250 deposit holds a local date.
