“So quick & very careful! Shaun, Devonte and Marcus were amazing! Thank you so much!”
I’m Danny Ferrer, owner of Preferred Moving Company. Miami move dates almost never cooperate. A Doral builder swears the keys will be ready Friday and delivers them a month later; a buyer nudges the closing back; a Brickell lease runs out before the next unit is habitable. Since 2011 I’ve spared families the ordeal of renting a unit themselves and shuttling a load across the metro to fill that gap.
One crew across the whole gap
We pull your things out of the old place, park them in our care, and bring them back the day the new door opens — same trucks, same faces at both ends. Rafael Ortega tracks every in-and-out date on the daily truck board, so nothing gets misplaced once the cartons are stacked away in storage.
| Crew | Rate | When it applies |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $155/hr | Loading in and out, smaller households |
| 3 movers + truck | $205/hr | Larger households, faster turnaround |
What a storage bridge runs
| Scenario | Flat rate |
|---|---|
| One-bedroom held about a month | $320 – $435 plus the storage fee |
| Three-bedroom held about a month | $690 – $940 plus the storage fee |
| Waiting out a 2-6 week lease gap | Priced to your household size |
| Riding out a builder’s late closing | Priced to your household size |
| Redelivery from our storage to the new door | Billed at the usual hourly |
Most storage bridges trace back to one of a few familiar Miami situations:
- A Doral or Miami Lakes builder runs the closing past your move-out day
- The buyer on your current home drags the paperwork out an extra week or two
- A Brickell or Aventura lease expires before the next unit is move-in ready
- A job relocation leaves you needing a spot to park the furniture for a while
Se habla espanol. Everything rides on one quote — you won’t juggle a truck invoice and a storage-facility statement landing on different days. Your cargo coverage of up to $1,000,000 per shipment stays in force every single day your belongings are in our building.
Why a fast-building metro leans on it
Doral, Miami Lakes, and the Homestead fringe never stop opening new subdivisions, and new construction is precisely where closing dates drift furthest. We’ve tucked away plenty of households for the couple of weeks a builder needed to wrap up. Renters between a Brickell or downtown lease turn to the same bridge when the next unit runs a week behind. Hurricane season gives some families one more reason — moving valuables into storage to sit out a storm.
Load-in and load-out on your dates
Delays don’t keep business hours, so both the load-in and the load-out run on evenings and weekends at the standard rate — no overtime line, ever. If a named storm kicks up near a delivery date, Rafael himself makes the reschedule call. Want it sealed before storage? Let our full-service packing team box it up first. When the new place opens, local moving covers the metro and long-distance moving takes it out of state. Add up the bridge on the moving calculator.
