Hollywood, FL Movers — Beach Towers to the Lakes, and Hollywood to Anywhere
Our trucks are parked on Ravenswood Road, just north of the Hollywood city line, which makes Hollywood the nearest city we serve. Between our yard and the ocean there are four drawbridges that open for boats on a federal timetable, a Broadwalk trucks can’t use, and a 1920s street plan laid out long before 26-foot box trucks. We plan around all three. And when your move keeps going — to New York, Charlotte, Atlanta or Nashville — it’s the same truck and the same crew the whole way.

East or West of the Intracoastal?
Hollywood is two different moving jobs sharing one name. The Intracoastal Waterway splits the city, and the side your address sits on decides the truck, the crew plan and the booking window.
Barrier island: bridges, towers and the Broadwalk
- Every route onto the island crosses a drawbridge with a fixed opening timetable
- South Ocean Drive towers need a reserved service elevator and a certificate of insurance
- Broadwalk-front buildings are loaded from the street side, never the promenade
Lakes, Hills and suburbs: streets and driveways
- Hollywood Lakes streets are narrow and tree-lined — right-size the truck
- Emerald Hills and Hollywood Hills are driveway moves — the question is volume, not access
- West Hollywood rentals are fast, local and often same-week
Where in Hollywood Are You Moving?
Joseph Young founded Hollywood in 1920 as a planned resort city — a beach, a lake district, a circle at its centre and a royal-palm boulevard tying them together. A century later that plan still decides how a move gets done. Here’s how we read each district.
Hollywood Beach & the South Ocean Drive towers
The barrier island between the Intracoastal and the ocean, with the nearly 2.5-mile Broadwalk promenade along the sand. North of Hollywood Boulevard it’s low-rise — converted 1950s motels, three- and four-storey walk-ups on the numbered streets. South of the boulevard it goes vertical: Trump Hollywood at 2711 South Ocean Drive, Ocean Palms, Sian, Apogee Beach, Hyde Beach House, the Diplomat Residences, and the older Summit and Quadomain buildings.
How we move it: bridge-timed arrival, reserved dock and service elevator, certificate of insurance issued before the truck rolls. See the tower process ↓
Hollywood Lakes
The city’s oldest neighbourhood — east of US-1 between Washington and Johnson Streets, entered along royal-palm-lined Hollywood Boulevard and built around twin man-made lakes. It’s a historic district of 1920s homes on streets that are narrower than a modern truck likes, under mature banyans and palms that hang over the road.
How we move it: a 26-foot box truck, never a 53-foot trailer, parked with canopy clearance. If a street can’t take the truck at all, we plan a shuttle from the nearest wide road at the quote stage.
Downtown Hollywood & Young Circle
The circle itself with ArtsPark at its centre, the historic Hollywood Boulevard business district, newer rental buildings around the circle and older two- and three-storey apartments on the side streets. Metered street parking, a City events calendar that fills the circle on festival weekends, and Friday-evening traffic.
How we move it: we check the City’s events schedule before we confirm a downtown date and book loading-zone time around it.
Hollywood Hills & Emerald Hills
West of I-95. Hollywood Hills is mid-century single-family homes on quiet grids off Hollywood Boulevard; Emerald Hills is the larger-lot neighbourhood around its golf club, with a mix of HOA and non-HOA streets. This is where the truck fits, three- and four-bedroom moves are common, and the real question is packing volume.
How we move it: driveway loading, a crew sized to the inventory, and HOA move rules checked in advance where they apply.
West Hollywood
Dense single-family and duplex streets on the city’s west side — plenty of rentals and plenty of first-home moves.
How we move it: quick, two-mover local jobs, frequently booked within the same week. Renting? Our apartment movers page explains how rental moves work.
Hollywood’s Drawbridges Run on a Federal Timetable — We Book Around It
Every road onto Hollywood Beach crosses the Intracoastal Waterway on a drawbridge, and each one may open for boats only at the times fixed in the Code of Federal Regulations (33 CFR 117.261). A truck that reaches a raised span loses minutes — and, worse, can lose the loading-dock slot the building gave you. So we time the crossing.
| Bridge | ICW mile | May open for boats | Next slot (Florida time) | What it means for your truck |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dania Beach Boulevard | 1069.4 | :00 & :30 | — | North-end crossing from our yard |
| Sheridan Street | 1070.5 | :15 & :45 | — | Alternate north-beach route, offset 15 minutes |
| Hollywood Boulevard (SR 820) | 1072.2 | :00 & :30 | — | The main beach artery — and the busiest |
| Hallandale Beach Boulevard (SR 824) | 1074.0 | :15 & :45 | — | Southern crossing for the South Ocean Drive towers |
“Next slot” is calculated from the published schedule in your browser — it shows when a bridge may open, not live bridge status.
Why the offset matters
Two bridges work the hour and half-hour; the other two work the quarter and three-quarter hour. Because the pairs are staggered by fifteen minutes, there is always a crossing that’s nowhere near its next opening slot. We route each beach move over the bridge that’s clear when the truck needs it and set the dock time to match. It’s a small piece of planning — and it’s why our beach moves don’t run late.
Schedules can change
The U.S. Coast Guard sometimes approves temporary schedule changes for construction or events. We check current notices the week of your move, so you don’t have to.
Hollywood Sits in a County That Regulates Movers on Top of the State
Florida licenses intrastate movers through the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services under Chapter 507, Florida Statutes. Broward County adds its own movers ordinance — county registration, plus the Tri-County consumer disclosure every customer should receive before the move. And the moment a load crosses a state line, federal rules under 49 CFR Part 375 apply. Moving Hub covers all three from one office and one fleet.

Operating under Broward County’s movers ordinance, with the Tri-County consumer disclosure delivered alongside your estimate — so you read it before you decide, not after.
Our own interstate authority. The truck that loads on South Ocean Drive is the truck that unloads in Long Island or Charlotte. No hand-off to a van-line agent — we aren’t one.

A Hollywood Beach Tower Move, in the Order It Actually Happens
- Tell us the building.South Ocean Drive associations keep move-in packets with the exact certificate wording their insurer wants, the service-elevator hours and any resident deposit. We request the packet at the quote stage.
- Certificate issued to the association’s legal name.A certificate made out to a building’s nickname instead of its registered association name gets turned away at the desk. We issue it to the registered name.
- Dock and elevator reserved in writing.Most towers have one service elevator and one loading bay. We hold both, then time the bridge crossing so the truck is in the bay at the start of your window.
- Pad, protect, pad.Elevator cab pads, floor runners from bay to unit, corner guards on corridor turns — the checks building staff look for.
- Load, drive, unload.Whether the next stop is Emerald Hills or Westchester County, it’s the same crew.
The Broadwalk rule
The Broadwalk is a pedestrian and bicycle promenade — trucks can’t drive or park on it. Buildings whose only frontage is the Broadwalk (the low-rise condos on the numbered streets north of Hollywood Boulevard) are loaded from the street side, sometimes from a metered lane on Surf Road or the A1A frontage. We scout these on foot before move day and apply for a City temporary no-parking permit where one is needed.
What a Hollywood Move Costs
Beach towers add dock and elevator time, and some Hollywood Lakes streets need a shuttle, so those moves sit toward the top of each band. A plain driveway-to-driveway move in Hollywood Hills or West Hollywood usually lands at the low end.

Hollywood’s out-of-state traffic has a pattern of its own: plenty of families head north to the New York metro, New Jersey and Connecticut, and a growing share go to the Carolinas, Georgia and Tennessee. With our own interstate authority we quote these as a direct carrier — one flat, binding figure, one truck, one crew, nobody in the middle.

Hollywood Moving Questions, Answered Plainly
Still unsure about your building, your street or your date? Call the Hollywood line and a coordinator will walk you through it.
Call (754) 327-7816How much do movers cost in Hollywood, FL?
Local Hollywood moves with Moving Hub run $650–$1,300 for a studio or one-bedroom, $900–$1,900 for two to three bedrooms and $1,400–$2,600 for four or more. Beach towers sit toward the top of each band because of dock and elevator time. The price is written and does not change on move day.
Do movers in Hollywood Beach need to book the building’s elevator?
Yes. South Ocean Drive towers such as Trump Hollywood, Ocean Palms and the Diplomat Residences require a reserved service-elevator window, a certificate of insurance naming the association, and often a resident deposit. Moving Hub requests the building’s move-in packet at the quote stage and books the window before the move is confirmed.
Why do the Hollywood drawbridges matter for a move?
Every road onto Hollywood Beach crosses a drawbridge that may open for boats on a federal schedule (33 CFR 117.261). Dania Beach Boulevard and Hollywood Boulevard open on the hour and half-hour; Sheridan Street and Hallandale Beach Boulevard on the quarter and three-quarter hour. Moving Hub routes each beach move over the bridge that is clear at the crossing time so the truck keeps its dock slot.
Are Moving Hub movers licensed for Hollywood and Broward County?
Yes. Moving Hub is Florida registered mover IM150010, operates under Broward County’s movers ordinance, and holds federal USDOT 3699092 and MC 1293570 for moves that leave the state.
Can you move a house in Hollywood Lakes with the narrow streets?
Yes. We use a 26-foot truck rather than a tractor-trailer, park with clearance under the tree canopy, and where a street will not take the truck we shuttle from the nearest wide road. It is planned at the quote, not improvised on the day.
Do you move from Hollywood, FL to New York or New Jersey?
Yes, as a direct carrier under our own interstate authority. One truck and one crew load in Hollywood and deliver in New York or New Jersey; nothing is transferred to another company. See our Florida to New York route.
How far ahead should I book a Hollywood move?
Two to three weeks for a mainland house, three to four weeks for a beach tower because elevator windows fill fast from December through April, and four to six weeks for an interstate move with a fixed delivery date.
Do you serve Dania Beach and Miramar?
Yes. Our yard sits just north of Hollywood beside Dania Beach, so Dania Beach moves are next-door jobs, and Miramar is a short drive west along Pembroke Road.
Is there a travel or fuel charge for Hollywood?
No. Hollywood is the closest city to our yard, and there is no travel fee on any Hollywood address.
What is the Tri-County consumer disclosure?
It is a standard South Florida form, used under Broward County’s movers ordinance, that explains your rights as a customer, the mover’s obligations and how to file a complaint. Moving Hub delivers it with your estimate.
Can I get storage between my Hollywood move-out and move-in?
Yes. Our storage services cover the gap between leases or closings, with the same crew handling both the move-out and the move-in.
Do you handle apartment and rental moves in Hollywood?
Yes — downtown Hollywood rentals, West Hollywood duplexes and the beach walk-ups. See apartment movers for how rental-building moves work.
