Moving from Hawaii to Florida
What to Know Before You Move
Weather & Climate – Florida shares Hawaii’s sunshine but adds hotter summers, higher humidity, and hurricane risks. Be ready with storm prep and insurance coverage.
Housing Styles – Miami high-rises, Orlando suburbs, Tampa waterfront homes, and Jacksonville ranches each have unique HOA or building rules. We’ll help coordinate move-in logistics, including permits or elevator reservations.
Transportation – Florida is car-centric. Most movers choose to ship their vehicles, especially if heading to suburbs like Orlando or Tampa.
Cost of Living – Housing and groceries can be more affordable than Hawaii, but insurance (especially for coastal homes) and utilities (from year-round AC) are higher.
Moving from Florida to Hawaii
What to Know Before You Move
Island Lifestyle – Trade the fast pace of Miami or Orlando for Hawaii’s slower rhythm, strong sense of community, and traditions rooted in aloha.
Home Size Adjustments – Florida homes tend to be larger. Many movers downsize before relocating to Hawaii, saving on shipping and fitting comfortably into island-style housing.
Car Shipping – If you rely on your car in Florida, you’ll likely want to ship it to Hawaii. Alternatively, Hawaii’s used car market is strong if you choose to buy upon arrival.
Cost Shifts – Expect higher prices for groceries, gas, and utilities in Hawaii—but no need for hurricane shutters, year-round AC, or flood insurance.
Lifestyle Change – Say goodbye to long commutes and theme-park weekends, and hello to hiking, surfing, paddling, and island exploration.
