Trusted as Some of the Best Movers on the Nature Coast

What our customers wrote on Google, word for word.

★★★★★

Alex and the team at Old Florida Moving were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They were professional, courteous, efficient, and incredibly communicative throughout the entire process. What really impressed me was the level of care they took with our furniture – and especially with our large rugs. They carefully measured everything, rotated the rugs, and placed each piece with incredible precision. Everything ended up exactly where it needed to be, and the attention to detail was exceptional. It’s rare to find movers who combine efficiency with this level of care and professionalism. Alex was wonderful to work with, and I would highly recommend Old Florida Moving to anyone looking for a moving company they can truly trust. Five stars without hesitation!

Thank you, Old Florida Moving LLC, for the outstanding service! The movers were professional, efficient, and took great care with everything. Alex, the owner, personally showed up and managed the entire moving process, which gave me a lot of confidence and peace of mind. It felt great supporting a family-owned company instead of a large corporate operation. The best part is that Alex is an actual mover who works alongside his team, not just someone behind a desk. I highly recommend Old Florida Moving LLC to anyone looking for reliable, honest, and personalized moving service.

Moving To or From Cedar Key?

Cedar Key is one of Florida’s most unique and beloved communities, a small island city a few miles out into the Gulf of Mexico, reached only by State Road 24.

With only a few hundred full-time residents, Cedar Key is the definition of Old Florida charm: historic Dock Street, world-class clam farming, and the Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge.

Moving here comes with real challenges. There’s one road in and out, crossing small bridges over the salt marsh. Streets are narrow, many homes are older or elevated, and timing matters on busy festival weekends like the Cedar Key Seafood Festival in October and the spring arts festival.

At Old Florida Moving, we plan for all of that: the drive out SR 24 with a loaded trailer, the island’s tight spaces, and the older wood-framed homes that define this community.

🗺️ Getting To & Around Cedar Key

Cedar Key is reached only by State Road 24, which runs west from US 19/98 at Otter Creek. The road crosses small bridges over the salt marsh before reaching the island, where streets are narrow and parking is tight.

🏫 Schools in Cedar Key

Cedar Key School serves students from pre-K through 12th grade on the island. The University of Florida and Santa Fe College are about an hour away in Gainesville.

🌿 Local Character

Artists, anglers, kayakers and birdwatchers all call Cedar Key home. It’s quiet, walkable and still feels like the Florida of decades ago.

💼 Economy

Tourism and clam aquaculture drive the island economy, with waterfront restaurants and galleries along Dock Street.

FAQ – Movers in Cedar Key, FL


How much do movers in Cedar Key, FL cost?
Our rates start at $175/hr for 2 movers and a truck and $195/hr for 3 movers, with a 3-hour minimum. Because Cedar Key is a longer drive out SR 24, many island moves come out more affordable as a flat rate. We quote both ways. Call (352) 740-3423 for a free estimate.
Are you a licensed and insured moving company?
Yes. Old Florida Moving is fully licensed and insured. We hold Florida Intrastate Mover license FL IM #4165 and USDOT #4542234, and you can verify both numbers with the State of Florida and the FMCSA.
Can you move furniture into an elevated Cedar Key home?
Yes. Many island homes are raised on pilings with long outdoor staircases. We bring the right crew size, pad and strap every piece, and measure tight landings and doorways before anything is carried up.
Do you move pianos on the island?
Yes. We move upright pianos and baby grand pianos, using padding, straps and the right equipment for each. Tell us about stairs and access ahead of time. We don’t move full-size concert grand pianos.
Should I avoid moving during festival weekends?
If you can. The October Seafood Festival and the spring arts festival bring heavy traffic and full parking on the island’s narrow streets. We’ll help you pick a date that keeps the truck close to your door.
Can you furnish or clear out a vacation rental or second home?
Yes. We deliver and set up furniture for rental homes, move furnishings between properties, and clear out homes being sold, with packing services available if you’re not on the island.
Do you do Cedar Key to Gainesville or Cedar Key to Chiefland moves?
Yes. Those are two of our most common island routes, along with moves down US 19 to Crystal River. We can move you anywhere within Florida. We’re licensed for moves within Florida only.
What coverage comes with my move?
Every move includes Released Value Protection at $0.60 per pound per article, the standard coverage under Florida law. It is not full-value insurance. For full replacement value, we recommend a separate moving insurance policy from a third-party provider.
