Moving Companies in Gulfport, FL
A local move in Gulfport and the wider Pinellas County area runs on either an hourly rate or a flat package, and the price splits mostly by home size. A one-to-two bedroom move typically costs $550 to $1,450, with a two-person crew charging $95 to $175 per hour. A three-to-four bedroom move runs $1,595 to $3,500 or more, with larger crews charging $300 to $330+ per hour.
Many local movers start their hourly clock the moment the truck leaves headquarters rather than when it reaches your door, so a company based well outside Gulfport can quietly pad the bill — a Pinellas-based outfit usually keeps that cost down. Gulfport's tight residential streets, historic cottages with narrow doorframes, and low oak canopies can mean a large truck won't fit, which can trigger a shuttle-truck fee. Summer and early-fall moves bring near-daily afternoon downpours, and crews often pause for lightning, so an early-morning slot beats both the heat and the usual 3 p.m. storm. Confirm the company's Florida registration before booking. Basic carrier liability is capped at $0.60 per pound per item by law, so a broken 30-pound, $1,000 television is only worth $18 unless you've bought Full Value Protection.

Gulfport refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (1.48 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.56), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $105,383 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Florida report $83,166. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Pinellas County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 20% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
