Distance and Travel Options
The journey from Los Angeles to Tampa spans approximately 2,500 miles, requiring careful planning. Driving takes around 37 hours, while direct flights cut travel time to about 5 hours.
Weather Adjustments
Tampa’s tropical climate brings hot, humid summers and mild winters. Prepare for occasional rainstorms and the potential for hurricanes during the season from June to November.
Parking Permits for Moving Trucks
Some Tampa neighborhoods may require parking permits for moving trucks, particularly in residential or waterfront areas. Check with local authorities or property managers in advance.
Building and HOA Rules
If you’re moving into a gated community or condo in Tampa, review any moving restrictions, such as elevator reservations or insurance requirements for your moving company.

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

Yes. For safety reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials or certain restricted items. These are commonly referred to as “non-allowable items.”

This includes:

  • Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
  • Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
  • Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
  • Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

We recommend transporting these items yourself, using them before your move, or disposing of them safely according to local regulations.

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Yes. We can remove and reinstall many wall-mounted items as part of your move.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

  • Mounted TVs
  • Artwork and mirrors
  • Shelving
  • Window air conditioners

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

  • Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
  • Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

  • Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
  • Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection
  • Basic tools for disassembly and reassembly

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
