Carrollwood sits along Dale Mabry Highway in northwest Tampa, and after running jobs through this part of Hillsborough County since 2015, our crew reads it as two distinct neighborhoods stitched together. Brett and Greg started B and G Movers right here in Tampa Bay, and to this day every booking rides on our own trucks with our own W-2 crew. The same people who wrap your dining table at pickup are the ones carrying it through your front door at the other end. Nothing gets handed off, nothing gets relayed to a stranger with a rental rig.
One ZIP code, two very different driveways
The lakeside side of Carrollwood, around Original Carrollwood and the older stretches of Carrollwood Village, leans toward single-family lots with deep shade canopies, mature oaks, and curving residential lanes. Those addresses give us room at the curb but reward an early arrival, because branches hang low and parking tightens fast on a weekday morning. The other face of the area runs along the condo and townhome corridors closer to the Veterans Expressway, where shared entries, gated lots, and posted visitor parking change how we stage the truck. We scout your exact setup before a box leaves the house, then plan the walk, the elevator window, and the loading spot around it.
- Lakeside lots: our crew tucks the truck against the nearest clear curb and pads the longer walk so shaded, tree-lined approaches off Original Carrollwood never slow the day.
- Townhome corridors: for shared entries near the Veterans Expressway we confirm visitor parking and reserve the loading window with building management ahead of time.
- Florida heat: with 90-plus afternoons and near-daily summer thunderstorms rolling through, Brett and Greg send crews out at first light to stay ahead of the heat and the rain alike.
- Slab homes: ground-floor, no-basement layouts let us move fast, while second-floor townhome bedrooms get an extra hand so stairs don’t eat the schedule.
A written price before we lift a thing
✓ Our own trucks, staffed by movers on the B and G Movers payroll
- Call and Brett, Greg or someone else at our Westshore office answers in person, never a rented call floor
- The total on the written estimate is what you pay at the door — no move-day surcharge bolted on, no padded line items slid into the invoice.
- One B and G Movers crew packs, loads and unloads the whole way through
- Every load carries $1M of coverage, and any certificate of insurance your HOA or high-rise requires goes out the same day
- If something goes sideways, Brett and Greg handle the claim themselves, and it stays inside our Westshore office
× Broker chain
- Run those same details through a broker and they ricochet around a call floor before getting sold to whoever bids lowest.
- Unexpected “extras” added to the invoice the second the truck arrives
- An unfamiliar truck shows up carrying a crew of strangers
- The certificate of insurance and the building paperwork land on you to track down
- Broken items waved off with a “that was not our subcontractor” excuse
We put your number on paper before move day instead of guessing at the curb. Flat pricing runs a studio $420 to $660, a one-bedroom $660 to $1,080, two bedrooms $1,080 to $1,780, three bedrooms $1,780 to $2,900, and four bedrooms $2,850 to $4,500. Prefer to pay by the hour? That runs $125/hr for two movers, $170/hr for three, and $215/hr for four. Got a piano? An upright is $285 to $460 and a baby grand $480 to $840, both folded into the quote up front. When a closing date slides or a building won’t release keys on time, climate-controlled storage holds your goods at roughly $110 to $260 a month by volume.
How your belongings are protected on paper
Every load we haul carries $1 million in cargo coverage. The default valuation is released value at sixty cents per pound, and you can step up to full-value protection for an added 1 to 3 percent if you want repair or replacement on a damaged item. Should anything go wrong, federal rules give you a full nine months after delivery to file your claim, and our office walks you through it.
When the job leaves Carrollwood for good, the same B and G crew stays behind the wheel for the long lanes: Orlando up I-4, Miami and Jacksonville down and across I-75, and Atlanta straight north on I-75. The hands that loaded your sofa in Tampa Bay are the same ones rolling it into the new place, with no outside hauler swapped in along the way. Ready to lock a date? Call [bc_phone].
