Local hourly moves here run around $116 an hour for a two-person crew, climbing to $150 to $250 or more for a three- or four-person team on a bigger home. Put together with load and travel time, a full local move typically totals $800 to $2,300 or more. Cross state lines and pricing shifts to weight and distance, usually starting upward of $2,300 to $4,300 or more.
The hourly clock usually includes the drive from the crew's warehouse to your old place and back from the new one, so ask how that travel time is billed before you sign. Many Lake Mary neighborhoods are gated communities that require a Certificate of Insurance from the moving company before a truck gets past the gate, check with your HOA a week ahead and pass that requirement along.
Basic coverage included by law is minimal, about $0.60 per pound per item, so a 30-pound, $1,000 television is only covered for $18 if it's dropped. Heavy items like pianos or large safes can add $100 to $400 or more in specialty fees. Cash tips of $20 to $50 per mover are customary.

Lake Mary 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 (1.65 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.64), 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 $76,985 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Florida report $57,104. 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 Seminole County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 19% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
