“Guys did a great job. Chris and Nico were absolutely awesome and they took care of everything!!”
Cole Rowe here, owner of Rowes Moving Pensacola. Our interstate and cross-state work follows I-10 off the Emerald Coast — west into Mobile, Alabama, and east to the Destin area and on to Tallahassee. Tyler Braswell heads those crews, and he stays with your load from the moment it leaves your Pensacola driveway until it’s carried into the new place. One team, one leg, no swaps.
Where the price comes from
The hands-on hours load and unload at our two standard rates. Distance and the volume of your home together fix the flat figure, which Marlene hands you in writing at the curb before the truck ever reaches the interstate. Tyler packs the trailer for a single continuous run instead of a scramble at both ends.
| Crew size | Rate at each end | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $135/hr | Smaller homes and apartments |
| 3 movers + truck | $185/hr | Bigger homes, faster loading |
Our regular I-10 destinations
These are the runs our trucks make week in and week out. After Tyler has looked over your inventory and the access at both ends, your written flat quote falls somewhere in these ranges:
| Destination from Pensacola | Distance | Flat range |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile, AL | ~60 mi | $1,450 – $2,050 |
| Destin / Fort Walton Beach, FL | ~50 mi | $1,350 – $1,900 |
| Tallahassee, FL | ~200 mi | $2,300 – $3,150 |
We aren’t quoting lanes we subcontract out — our own crew drives that I-10 stretch to Mobile and Tallahassee ourselves, on our own trucks and our own authority. Coverage opens at $0.60/lb released-value, upgrades to full-value on request, and we can document up to $1,000,000 per shipment across the entire drive.
One crew, both ends of the road
Whoever loads your trailer in Pensacola is who unloads it at the far door. There’s no terminal along I-10 where your things change hands, and no outside driver you’ve never met touching your furniture. Keeping the same team on the load start to finish is how a china cabinet rides 200 miles and arrives whole. Practically, that gives you:
- Zero warehouse hand-offs and no stranger behind the wheel
- Your flat total signed at the curb before the trailer pulls away
- $0.60/lb released-value as the baseline, with full-value on the table
- Documented cargo coverage up to $1,000,000 per shipment for the full run
Working around closings and the tropics
Closing dates almost never land on a friendly weekday, which is why departing on a Sunday costs the same as departing on a Wednesday. And if a tropical system sets up on the route between June and November, Tyler calls to push the date rather than send a loaded trailer into weather. Want a ballpark first? The moving calculator will hand you one. Prefer it packed for you? Our full-service packing crew takes that on. Closings not lining up? Short-term storage spans the gap, and everything else lives on the home page.
