Among the lanes A1 All Professional Movers covers out of Marion County, Miami reaches the farthest: near 315 miles south on the Florida Turnpike to the South Florida metro, all of it on one of our own rigs.
Rick’s Ocala crew packs the household, our driver carries the entire pull past Fort Pierce and West Palm, and that same crew settles it in Miami. Not one terminal stop, transfer dock, or relay hookup touches the trip.

- CrewOne Ocala team, end to end
This is genuine long-haul work, and the schedule bends to it: a daybreak pickup in Ocala to get out ahead of the heat and the storms, a long steady run down the Turnpike, and delivery that evening or the next day on the bigger households. Your belongings ride sealed in the one truck the entire distance, the crew steady on both ends.
The bookings A1 carries the long way to Miami
Career and family draw a steady current south on this lane, and Rick’s crew has packed everything from a trimmed-down villa to a full horse-country estate. The recurring reasons:
- Healthcare, finance, and trade workers taking posts in Miami, Brickell, or the broader South Florida market
- Seasonal residents relocating a second home from Marion County down toward the coast
- Households leaving a Marion Oaks or Silver Springs Shores place for the Miami suburbs near relatives
- Owners moving a full estate off NW 80th into a South Florida property in one careful trip
Reading the 315-mile Turnpike pull
✓ A1’s own crew and trucks
- When you call, Rick or someone at his Ocala desk answers in person, not a hired phone room
- On move day the amount you settle matches the written figure to the dollar, with nothing added
- One A1 All Professional Movers crew packs, loads and unloads every single job
- The load carries $1M in coverage, and your community office receives a certificate that same day
- Any claim is handled in-house, with Rick reviewing it personally
× Broker chain
- Your information bounces through a call center and then gets sold further down the chain
- Quote rebilled at delivery for “extras”
- Every time, an unfamiliar truck shows up carrying a crew you have never met
- Generic certificate, COI is a fight
- “Not our crew” runaround on damage claims
Distance drives every choice on this job. A three-bedroom or anything larger loads onto the bigger rig, letting the household cross the state in one trip; smaller apartments take the 26-foot truck.
The road itself behaves, the Turnpike unbroken the whole way, while the South Florida finish, with its tower loading-dock windows, is where real planning lands. We pull out of Ocala at daybreak so the haul gets underway before the afternoon storms gather.
The South Florida buildings, not the open Turnpike, demand the planning
About 4h 45m of seat time builds into a full day at the wheel, and Brickell and downtown Miami condos want an insurance certificate and a booked freight elevator in hand before the ramp drops. A1 is FDACS-registered on its own USDOT and MC authority, so the entire 315-mile pull counts as one regulated move with $1M of cargo coverage, fixed when we latch the doors in Ocala.
Three hundred-plus miles on one A1 figure
Long-haul or not, the number holds steady:
- About $950 to $1,600 on a two-bedroom and $1,600 to $2,650 on a three-bedroom house, the mileage already inside the figure and signed before loading
- Carry-out in Marion County and carry-in at the Miami room across the whole 315 miles
- From the first Turnpike mile to the last, $1M of cargo coverage rides the load
- Climate-controlled storage stands ready at about $95 to $230 a month should the South Florida closing date drift
Phone Rick’s office at (888) 711-4778 for a written flat figure on your Ocala-to-Miami job, and we anchor the date and the dollar amount on paper ahead of the day.
