“Totally worth the cost and they took care of the items.”
Mike M.
I’m Danny Ferrer, and I run the crews at Preferred Moving Company. When I ask families what caught them off guard, the answer is nearly always the same: the boxing. One kitchen quietly devours a whole evening nobody set aside. That’s why we treat packing as a craft of its own rather than a chore squeezed in beside the loading. Miami-Dade homes have kept us busy at it since 2011.
The materials come with the job
Wardrobe cartons for the closets, unprinted paper for the stemware, boxes and tape for the rest — none of it lands as a separate charge. There’s no hardware-store run on your part and no supply invoice on ours. Marcus Delgado heads the fragile-heavy work and builds a crate for anything that has no business riding in an ordinary box. A standard pack covers:
- Kitchens and pantries, glassware through the spice shelf
- Artwork, mirrors, china, and framed pieces, crated where the item calls for it
- Wardrobes rolled onto hanging rails so shirts and dresses never leave the hanger
- Books, vinyl, and the stubborn built-in that defeats a factory carton

Gables estates versus Doral new-builds
Coral Gables and Pinecrest homes are full of built-ins, heirloom glass, and closets no carton was cut to fit. Out in the Doral and Miami Lakes subdivisions the challenge flips to sheer volume: spare bedrooms, a bonus room, a loaded two-car garage. Two different puzzles, and one bilingual crew that maps the plan while we walk your rooms together.
Box it today, load it tomorrow
Packing needn’t wait for move morning. Plenty of families book us for a weeknight so the Saturday load-out stays unhurried, and that after-hours work never bumps the total. Once the tape is down, local moving covers a cross-metro hop while long-distance moving takes you out of Florida. Not ready to move the boxes yet? Short-term storage minds them until you are.
