From a customer who moved Virginia to Florida

“Gorilla Haulers completed my long distance interstate move with precision professionalism, and no stress. I needed to move the contents from three separate storage locations around northern Virginia to new home in Florida. Wilson and his crew picked up everything from each location and even provided additional packing to protect my furnishings. Mike and his delivery team showed up within 3 days on time and moved everything into my home in just a few hours either zero damage. I highly recommend Gorilla Haulers. Local company and very professional..”

Florida deliveryFor a Florida condo, confirm elevator reservations, loading hours, and any paperwork needed for movers. Give us your first available delivery date separately from your flight or drive south. If your closing or lease start is uncertain, discuss storage before pickup.
