Question
My uncle drives his own 18-wheeler for a Miami movers company so he does moving services Miami and North with them. They get him the loads and everything, he just does the driving and work. I was talking to him about maybe starting a business for long distance Miami moving. I want us to haul shipments out, for people moving from Florida to New York for example, and then take back people moving to Miami FL. How many moving companies Miami FL are there that offer that service? I would like to know how much of a competition can I expect from Florida long distance moving companies. Danny
Answer
There is always competition, but there is no way for us to measure the volume of it for you. What you need to keep in mind is that you will be competing not only with Miami moving companies. There are many movers in Florida and outside of it that accept and perform relocations through your state. Many companies offer both local and long distance relocations and many companies that are not stationed in Florida still haul shipments to and from it (same as you would like to do).
However, if you do decide to go into business with your uncle (and assuming you get all the proper licensing and insurance), you can use the following services to find shipments to haul.
