What Qualifies as a Long Distance Move?

What Qualifies as a Long Distance Move?If you are preparing to move out of the Tampa area, you may be wondering how far of a distance you are moving before a moving company considers it a long distance move. A move that is within the same area is considered a local move, while a move that is far away or across state lines is considered a long distance move. There are a few different factors that can determine which type of relocation a moving company will classify your move under.

A move that crosses state lines, even if the person is living near the border of the state, could still be considered a long distance move. That’s because a moving company must be granted authority from federal regulators to transport goods across state lines. Because of this, it is especially important to hire a company that is not only experienced in long distance moves but that also specifically advertises they can perform long distance moves if your relocation will cross state lines. However, even if your move out of the Tampa area is still within Florida, it is possible that it will be considered long distance since Florida is a large state. It varies from moving company to moving company, but if your move is more than 50 miles, it is possible to still be considered a long distance move.
