What a move with Suddath Moving & Storage should cost
Not Suddath Moving & Storage's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Tampa costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Tampa: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Tampa: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $38–$47 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $455 – $733.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $227 – $357 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $303 – $545 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $455 – $733 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $759 – $1,344 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,291 – $1,955 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,595 – $2,331 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Florida: hand movers there earn a median $18.35 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $38–$47 per mover per hour.

Before you book Suddath Moving & Storage
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC425403
Suddath Moving & Storage can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC425403. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask for Tampa references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Suddath Moving & Storage's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Tampa you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Suddath Moving & Storage driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Ask whose truck arrives
1 of the 1 power units Suddath Moving & Storage files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 1018395, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $455 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Tampa at $455 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $5,261 – $7,014. A surveyed, written estimate from Suddath Moving & Storage far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
