The Lapeer-to-Tampa run is the classic Michigan snowbird trip, and we make it all winter for retirees and families trading hard northern cold for the Gulf Coast. It is about 1,210 miles, and we ride I-75 almost the entire way, straight down through Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia into the Tampa Bay area. Plan on three to four days door to door, depending on the load and the delivery date you need in Florida.
On a haul this long, who actually drives the truck is the whole question. Pronto holds its own US DOT and MC authority, so our crew loads your home here, drives the full 1,210 miles, and unloads it in Tampa, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, or one of the 55-plus communities around the bay. There is no national van line, no shared trailer holding three other families’ goods, and no warehouse where your boxes wait a week for space.
Many of these are downsizing moves into a Florida condo or a gated community, so we run a careful walkthrough and write a binding quote that holds for the whole trip. We time the delivery so the truck is not idling outside a community before your closing, and our office sends the association its certificate of insurance ahead of the date.
Every mile on our own truck
We will also schedule the Lapeer pickup so your Michigan place is empty in time for its own closing. From driveway to driveway it is a single Pronto crew, a GPS-tracked truck, and one binding price, with the $125 deposit credited to your total.
