TX to FL Move

We are looking to move our 32x54 home from Dallas to Orlando. Can anyone provide a reference for a reliable transportation company and/or approximate costs, please?

Florida requires wind zone 2 or 3 homes in almost ALL of the state. Because of that requirement it is not always possible to move a home into Florida..

Costs w2ill be high..First there is the cost of breakdown and packing for shipment, of course the freight costs and then the cost of a proper set up to meet Florida code..A complete move of a 1000 miles would end up between 7 and 12 thousand. That is only a guess.. Most folks sell their home and buy another in their destination. Good Luck..
