What went wrong on this run: of 43 reviews, 37% mention damage and 26% a delay or a no-show. Reviewer-reported, counted by phrase.
Who makes this move
Florida does not tax wages.
Census movers both ways. ACS 2024 counts 9,358 people who moved from Florida to Maryland, with a margin of plus or minus 2,214. The reverse flow is larger: 16,358 people moved from Maryland to Florida in the same year. Those figures are headcounts of movers, and they stop there.
Price levels sit close. BEA price parity for 2024 uses US equals 100. Florida is 103.4 and Maryland is 105.0. Both sit a little above the US mark, and Maryland sits a little above Florida. The index compares price levels, and it is not a moving quote.
Wage tax differs. Florida does not tax wages. Maryland taxes wages. This page does not give rates. Treat the wage line as a question for a tax preparer, and treat the truck bill as a question for the mover you hire.
What the job looks like
Plan on days on the road rather than a same-day handoff.
Most common run. The most common run in our file is Miami to Baltimore, 1,091 miles, about 20 hours of driving. Plan on days on the road rather than a same-day handoff. The order sets a delivery window for when the truck may arrive.
How the price is built. Long-distance household goods moves are priced by weight and miles, which is why quotes on this run can spread out. In our file, 43 reviews show a median reported price of $3,990 across 43 priced reviews. The middle half runs from $2,600 to $6,255. Prices mix home sizes and distances.
What goes wrong. Of those reviews, 37% mention damage and 26% mention a delay or no-show. A delay or no-show is a schedule miss, and damage is a handling miss. Neither share is a forecast for your load. Ask for the delivery window in writing before you treat a date as firm.
Before you book
Haulest is not a carrier and does not book the truck for you.
Check the carrier first. Interstate household moves need a mover with an active USDOT number and FMCSA household-goods authority. Look the number up in the license lookup before you pay anyone. Haulest is not a carrier and does not book the truck for you.
Get the estimate type in writing. Ask for a binding estimate or a not-to-exceed estimate, and read it with the estimate guide. On a non-binding estimate the mover must deliver on payment of 110 percent of the estimate, which the 110 percent rule spells out. Do not treat a spoken range as the signed deal.
Write down the window and the deposit. The delivery window belongs on the order for service, in writing, before load day. Deposit terms belong there too; use the deposit guide so a cash request is not the only record. If the window is missing, the date in a text is not the contract.

Ask out loud
Questions people ask
- How many people moved from Florida to Maryland?
- ACS 2024 counts 9,358 people who moved from Florida to Maryland, with a margin of plus or minus 2,214. In the other direction, 16,358 people moved from Maryland to Florida. The counts do not say why anyone left.
- How far is the most common Florida to Maryland run?
- The most common run in our file is Miami to Baltimore, 1,091 miles, about 20 hours of driving. Delivery is a window set on the order for service, not a clock-time drop. Plan the days around that written window.
- What prices show up in reviews for this run?
- Across 43 priced reviews, the median reported price is $3,990. The middle half of those prices runs from $2,600 to $6,255. Prices mix home sizes and distances, so the median is not a quote for your house.
- How often do reviews mention damage or a delay?
- Of 43 reviews in our file, 37% mention damage and 26% mention a delay or no-show. Those shares describe past reports on this run, not your shipment. Put the delivery window in writing so a late truck is a contract issue.
- What should I confirm before I pay a deposit?
- Confirm an active USDOT number and FMCSA household-goods authority before you send money. On a non-binding estimate the mover must deliver on payment of 110 percent of the estimate. Get the estimate type, the delivery window, and the deposit terms in writing.
