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!

We hired Alex and his crew at Old Florida Moving to move my grandmother from Gainesville to Crystal River, and they did an amazing job. My grandmother was especially worried about her antique vanity that means so much to her, but they handled it with incredible care and professionalism. Alex personally came out to the job with his crew, and you could tell they truly cared. Everything arrived safely, and the whole move was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend Old Florida Moving!

Moving In or Out of Alachua?

The city of Alachua is the second-most populous city in Alachua County, growing from about 9,059 residents in 2010 to 10,574 in 2020. It sits along I-75 northwest of Gainesville, with US 441 running right through Main Street.

Alachua was founded in 1884 when residents of nearby Newnansville, once the county seat, moved to the new rail line. The town was incorporated in 1905, and cotton-era Queen Anne homes and brick storefronts now make up the Downtown Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places.

Today the city is known for Progress Corporate Park and the UF Innovate Sid Martin Biotech Incubator, the heart of one of Florida’s largest bio and life science clusters. San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park, once home to a 1606 Spanish mission, lies just to the south.

Whether you’re relocating for work, moving into a newer neighborhood, or leaving Alachua for anywhere in Florida, Old Florida Moving is ready to help.
