Moving from Wisconsin to Florida

Moving from Wisconsin to Florida

Are you considering moving from Wisconsin to Florida? You are definitely not alone in your choice!

Florida is one of the states with continuous population growth. Every year The Sunshine State welcomes flocks of new transplants who quickly get used to the subtropical climate and all the perks that come with it.

What are the main things to consider as you plan your move? Where to begin? This post will guide you through some major steps. We will also share our expertise on how to ship your car from Wisconsin to Florida.

What do I need to know before moving to Florida?

If Wisconsin has been your home for a long time, it will be a relief to move to a warmer state with more than 300 days of sun a year. Be aware of the humidity and hurricanes,however, especially if you plan to move to Southern Florida. Following the hurricane safety measures and investing in a few simple solutions you will keep yourself hurricane-ready.

Florida is famous for its golf fields and beaches. However, there are many other activities that you can engage in. Kayaking, hiking, going on a hot air balloon trip, or watching a baseball game are other exciting activities to explore in your free time.

Moreover, unlike the 6.27% income tax in Wisconsin, which is one of the highest for individuals, Florida does not have any state income taxes. The good news does not end here. Florida also offers more opportunities in the job market than Wisconsin. The hospitality, administration, transportation, and health care industries are the ones that employ the most people. Therefore, if your professional interests lie in these industries, you will have lots of great opportunities to shine.

Florida is also one of the most diverse states in the US, and we can truly consider it a melting pod of cultures. Therefore, get ready to indulge in delicious food enjoy various cultures and music.

How much does it cost to move from Wisconsin to Florida?

Long answer short: it depends. The main factors to affect moving costs depend on the size of the apartment or house, type of service, packing materials, and the exact distance.

For example, moving a studio can cost from $1,400 to $1,700. Whereas moving a three-bedroom apartment would cost between $2,400 and $3,000. As you see, this is a wide range. Thus, there are plenty of opportunities to save money if you allow for some flexibility in timing, provide your own packaging as well as load and unload your belongings.

Corsia Logistics has extensive experience working with moving companies. We can easily recommend a  reliable company in case you would like to check your options.

How can I ship my car from Wisconsin to Florida?

Shipping your car from Wisconsin to Florida is the best option.

 

Driving, especially in the midst of moving, is a questionable alternative. The long-distance will add wear and tear to your car. Then factor in the time that you will need to get to your destination. To that, add road trip expenses that may include gas, lodging, and a possibility of a car breakdown or a costly speeding ticket.

On the other hand, maybe it is your first time shipping a car and you are not sure how to proceed. Below are few tips to follow to ensure a stress-free process:

Take time to research car shipping companies.

Do not immediately choose the cheapest options, as there is definitely more to price when it comes to these services. The quality of the service, transparency, adequate licensing, and shipping insurance are some of the things to keep in mind as you research companies.

Ask questions and get familiar with the type of auto shipping services that best fit your car.

For example, if you are shipping a luxury car, then most probably you should choose an enclosed carrier to protect it from road dust or weather conditions.

When requesting a quote, be ready to provide the exact distance, vehicle details, and your time-frame.

All these factors not only will impact the price, but also will help the agents help you select the best fit services for your particular situation.

If you are on a budget, it is a good idea to plan in advance and consider shipping your car in a non-busy season. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. An agent with your best interest in mind will help you plan accordingly.

Make sure your car is ready for shipping.  A few simples things will you avoid surprises at pick up and during transport.

Arrange for the pick up time and location and enjoy your flight to Florida.

Corsia was highly recommended by a friend in the automobile industry. We needed to transport a cargo van from Seattle to Florida. We contacted Corsia who quickly arranged transport within just a few days. Communication was outstanding! Just a few email confirmations and we were all set. Mike was great and arrived right on time and delivered to Florida on schedule. Tip-avoid the hornets nest of auto brokers on line and just contact Corsia for a truly great experience!

Corsia has been amazing. Their prices are really competitive but more importantly their customer service has been 5-Star. Elena followed up with me every step of the way, making sure there was no miscommunication between me & the driver. We are using them to ship a 2nd vehicle & would not hesitate to use them again!

I have recently used Corsia for long time family car with sentimental value that was moved I have recently used Corsia for shipment of my vehicle from Oregon to Arizona by recommendation from other family member who also used Corsia in the past. I am very pleased on the service and the communication throughout shipment. Ken was my direct contact and kept me informed along the move The car was picked up and delivered as communicated. I did use a enclosed mover and the driver was also clean cut professional and treated car as his own. I would definitely recommend Corsia again with the experience I have had. Thank you. T

Corsia rep (Elena) was very proactive. Helped ship a car from CA to GA. She checked in with me via email quote and several phone calls to find me the best possible quote for the fastest available service. After several communications, Corsia was able to schedule a vehicle pickup the next day. The driver communicated well, and the vehicle arrived in final destination faster than we expected in perfect condition. I highly recommend using Corsia's reliable, efficient service.

Thanks, Corsia! Pickup was so clean, efficient, and wonderful -- my only recommendation is to make sure you schedule it during the day so you can fully review the car in the daylight. Drop off was equally wonderful, and the whole trip went down without a hitch (pun intended!). Seriously, Corsia delivered my Jeep from CT to California with no issues or bumps in the road!

Truly positive experience

Corsia Memphis to LA, mid-size SUV. I looked at 4 different companies amd Corsia was the most responsive of them. While being responsive, they were not unduly aggressive: when I indicated that I need to wait a month before making a decision they stopped contacting me and only came back with a reminder when I really needed it. Once I decided to engage Corsia they found me a transport within two days and the car was delivered (from Memphis to LA) in another two days. I had a truly positive experience.

Working with Corsia Logistics was a great experience. Working with Corsia Logistics was wonderful. They were able to find a driver right away to transport our car. They were in constant communication as to when the car was getting picked up and dropped off. The driver also communicated with me as to when he would arrive. I would highly recommend Corsia Logistics.

Excellent Organization

Corsia was an excellent company to work with while I transferred my car across the US. A friend of mine suggested I use them as they had been very organized and trustworthy with her own car. I researched a few different place but decided to go with Corsia and I'm so glad I did! Any questions I had throughout the process they answered quickly and clearly. I would definitely use them again in the future and recommend them for others to use.
