Most movers quote one price and hand you a higher bill when the move is done. We lock your rate before we touch a single item, with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or long-carry fees. You rent the truck, and our Jacksonville movers handle every box, appliance, and piece of furniture.

Every move carries $1,000 in damage protection, and every mover is licensed, trained, and background-checked. If a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled start, $50 comes off your bill. You get a real moving crew, and university students get paid.

We handle each box, piece of furniture, and flight of stairs. All you need to do is drive the truck.

03

You've moved in!

With Undergrads, you simply pay for the hours worked, with no additional fees at the end. And if a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled time, we will deduct $50 from your payment.

HOW PRICING WORKS

How Jacksonville move quoting works and why fast workers cost less!

Your hourly rate is set before we arrive. Then the only thing left is the clock. Most movers pay their staff the same if the job takes 3 hours or 5, so there's no incentive to move fast. Our crews are university student athletes, booked back to back, so the work is fast. Use our Jacksonville Moving Calculator, built from 40,000+ completed moves across our markets. It has a built-in quote verifier so you can see if your quote from a different moving company is in line with what you should expect. Looking for movers today? Check out our Jacksonville last-minute and same-day movers.

The difference between the low and high end of moving quotes usually boils down to one thing: how fast your crew moves.

How we keep prices low:

  • The hourly charge is fixed before we arrive, and there are no surprise bills after the move
  • The faster they go, the lower your total is. Our movers are young and fit, so they work fast
  • Show-Up Guarantee: $50 off if your mover is 30 minutes late
  • No hidden fees. No gasoline surcharge. No fees if your move involves stairs.

The efficiency insight that most people miss

Most people think it costs less to use fewer movers, yet it's normally the reverse. A 3-person crew that wraps in 3 hours costs less than 2 movers that take 5. This is because your movers are always at top performance. With fewer people, movers become fatigued and the pace drops off. When athletes do their best work in the 3 to 4 hour timeframe, we make moves and everybody wins.

THE POWER MOVE

Our Jacksonville movers do the heavy lifting

You just rent the truck

U-Haul has 23,000+ locations across the US, and most customers in Jacksonville are within 5 miles of one. Any truck up to 26 foot runs on a standard driver's license, with no CDL or commercial license required.

What driving one actually feels like

  • You sit higher than any SUV. You can see the full road ahead and every lane.
  • No minimum speed. Go 45 mph the whole way. Take every exit slowly. No one cares.
  • You'll need one new skill: turn wide at intersections. Otherwise, it's pretty simple.
  • Pick up on your phone via U-Haul's Truck Share 24/7, with no counter, no paperwork, no wait.

“I was genuinely scared, until I started driving it. Just slow down, take the foot off the gas before going downhill, brake slowly, don't hug the curb while turning.” From a first-time mover.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE

What to know about moving in Jacksonville

Jacksonville is the largest city by area in the contiguous United States, which means move distances within the city can be substantial, a move from Mandarin to the Northside is 30+ miles. Factor this into your time estimate; cross-city moves regularly take 5-6 hours in Jacksonville even for a 1BR, because drive time between locations is built into the hourly rate clock. University of North Florida move-in (mid-August) and Jaguars home game Sundays are the two specific booking constraints unique to Jacksonville. UNF apartments near Kernan Boulevard fill 3-4 weeks out for move-in weekend. Jaguars home games at TIAA Bank Field create a parking lockout zone that affects the Southside and Downtown areas; if your move-in is on a game Sunday, plan it to finish before 10am or start it after the game ends. Riverside and Avondale are Jacksonville's historic districts, popular for renters and buyers alike, but with specific constraints. Streets like Forbes Street, Park Street, and sections of Riverside Avenue have on-street parking that is actively used; there's often no space to stage a moving truck without blocking traffic. A 20-ft truck is the practical maximum for many interior Riverside/Avondale blocks. San Marco's riverfront apartment buildings, including towers on the north end of San Marco Boulevard, require freight elevator reservations 48 hours ahead and enforce moves within building-assigned windows. For Mandarin and Southside (where the majority of Jacksonville's corporate housing is concentrated for Navy Federal, Deutsche Bank, and Fidelity employees), truck access is standard and booking flexibility is higher, same-week moves are available most of the year outside of peak August.

Peak season

May, June, August, September

Weekend slots fill 2–3 weeks out during peak months. Book early.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked about Jacksonville moves

How much does it cost to move in Jacksonville?

Every move is priced by the hour. The rate is locked before we start, with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or hidden add-ons. Two movers run $112 per hour, and most moves run $200–$350 total for a 2-person crew over 2 to 3 hours. Larger homes that need a third mover or more hours run higher, with the rate locked before we start. Truck rental is separate if you need one. If we finish early, you pay less.

Do I need to provide a truck?

We're labor-only movers. You rent the truck from U-Haul, Penske, or Budget. We handle all the loading, unloading, and heavy lifting. We'll tell you the exact size to get and can book it for you if you want.

Is there anything your movers won't move?

Especially heavy or bulky safes and pianos are best left to movers who specialize in those items. Keyboards, obviously, aren't an issue. Gun safes and firearms are best left to you. Contractually, our movers won't touch them.

What's the Show-Up Guarantee?

We're confident enough in our show rate to put $50 behind every booking. We've completed 140+ moves in Jacksonville. If a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled start, let us know and we'll knock $50 off your final bill.

Are your movers background-checked?

Yes. Every Undergrads mover is a background-checked university student. They work under their real names, connected to their university email.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Undergrads is a fully licensed and insured moving company in every market we serve, including Jacksonville. Every move includes $1,000 in damage protection. If you're moving into a high-rise or building that requires a Certificate of Insurance (COI), contact us. We handle COI requests before move day.

What neighborhoods in Jacksonville do you serve?

We serve all areas of Jacksonville including Downtown, San Marco, Riverside, Five Points, and more. If you're anywhere in the Jacksonville metro area, we can likely help. Call (904) 906-5417 if you're unsure.

How quickly can you schedule a move?

Same-week scheduling is available in Jacksonville most of the year. Weekend dates in peak season (May–September) fill fast; book early if you have a fixed date. We're available 7 days a week.

Can I cancel or reschedule my move?

Yes. Cancellation is free 48 hours before your move, and rescheduling costs nothing with the same notice. The $5 reservation simply holds your date; you pay for the move after it happens.
