Boca Moving CompanyMovers in West Palm Beach
Boca Moving Company moves homes, condos and offices in West Palm Beach, from the historic districts north and south of downtown to the towers along the waterfront. You get a written, itemized estimate before the move, and a $250 deposit holds your date.
Historic neighborhoods and older homes
West Palm Beach has a long list of historic neighborhoods. Several are on the National Register of Historic Places, including El Cid, Flamingo Park, Grandview Heights, Mango Promenade, Old Northwood, Prospect Park-Southland Park, Vedado, Central Park and Northboro Park, and the city's own preservation program oversees more than a dozen locally designated historic districts.
Much of this housing goes back to the 1920s, when the city describes a rush to build cottages and bungalows for new residents, with post-war and midcentury homes filling in later. Moving out of an older house is its own kind of job. Before moving day we measure the large pieces against doorways, stairs and tight turns, and we cover floors and door frames so a hundred-year-old house looks the same when we leave as when we arrived.
Downtown towers, condos and HOA communities
Downtown keeps adding residential high-rises, and many West Palm Beach homes are condos or sit inside an HOA. Those moves are planned around the building as much as the furniture.
- Certificate of insurance: we send it to your building or association manager, naming whoever the building asks us to name.
- Elevator and loading dock: we coordinate the reservation with the manager and schedule the crew around it.
- Move window: if your building only allows moves on certain days or hours, we book the crew inside that window.
- Gate lists and parking: we send the crew and truck details your gate or front desk needs.
- Protection: hallways, elevator walls and floors padded the way your building requires.
Offices and businesses downtown
West Palm Beach is the county seat of Palm Beach County, and its downtown, from the historic Clematis Street main street to the CityPlace area, mixes offices, shops and restaurants with homes. We move offices, medical practices and retail spaces with a move plan and floor layout for the new space, certificates of insurance for both buildings, and evening or weekend scheduling so you can stay open.
Moving between West Palm Beach and the rest of South Florida
Interstate 95 runs north to south through the city, and Florida's Turnpike passes further west toward Royal Palm Beach and Wellington. Three bridges over the Lake Worth Lagoon connect the city to the Town of Palm Beach: the Flagler Memorial Bridge, the Royal Park Bridge and the Southern Boulevard Bridge. Bridge openings can slow traffic, so for a move to or from the island we plan the route and the timing ahead.
Our office is in Lantana, and our crews work across Palm Beach and Broward counties: Palm Beach, Wellington, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and the towns in between.
Long distance, seasonal moves and storage
Moving out of Florida, or splitting time between West Palm Beach and a home up north? Boca Moving Company holds its own federal authority for interstate household goods moves (U.S. DOT No. 4320562, MC-1685659). Every long distance move starts with a survey of your goods, in person or by live video, and a written estimate that says whether it is binding or non-binding. You receive the federal booklet Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move with it.
If your closing dates do not line up, or part of the home stays behind for the season, we can hold your belongings in our storage vaults and deliver them when you are ready.
