Progress Village Movers for Growing Families and New Builds

Progress Village has more than doubled in a decade, with new subdivisions going up around the original 1950s village. Our Progress Village movers plan around HOA rules, brand-new streets, and kids' schedules, then take I-75 or the local roads to wherever you are headed.

Why Progress Village Families Choose Our Movers

Moves planned around school schedules, HOAs, and new construction.

Ready for New Construction

Many homes here are brand new, and builders and HOAs set their own move-in rules. We confirm the closing date, protect new floors and paint, and find streets GPS does not know yet, the same way we handle new builds next door in Riverview.

Planned Around Family Schedules

About a third of households here have kids, so we can time loading around school hours and set the beds up first at the new house. Moves north into Palm River-Clair Mel get the same plan.

Written Estimates Before Move Day

We look at the house first and put the estimate in writing, so the price is settled before the truck is booked. It is the same process our moving company in Tampa uses across Hillsborough County.

Moving Services From Our Progress Village Movers

Local Moving

Moves inside Progress Village, or a short run to Riverview, Brandon, or Palm River, are billed by the hour. I-75 on the eastern edge gives us quick routes north and south, including moves out to Apollo Beach.

Residential Moving

Homes range from single-story houses in the original village to two-story new builds with fresh floors and paint. Our residential movers pad doorways and protect floors so the new house still looks new after move day.

Apartment Moving

Townhome and rental communities here set their own move hours and parking rules. We get them from management ahead of time and staff the stairs so the move stays inside the window.

Multiple movers organize and stack Skyway Moving & Storage boxes inside a truck, preparing for loading or unloading.

Packing Services

We pack full homes or just the kitchen and kids’ rooms, labeling each box by room so the nursery and bedrooms come off the truck first.

Plan a Progress Village Move With Kids

About one in three Progress Village households has children, according to the 2020 Census. Pick your kids' ages and when you are moving to build a plan that keeps the day calm and the school switch simple.

Kids moving with you
When you are moving

Every family

  • Pack a first-night box for each child with sheets, pajamas, a favorite toy, and chargers, and keep it in your car.
  • Set up kids' beds first at the new house so bedtime feels normal on night one.
  • Keep children and pets out of the carry path with a sitter, a neighbor, or a closed room.

Under 5

  • Pack the nursery or toddler room last and unpack it first.
  • Bring the crib or toddler bed hardware in a labeled bag so our crew can reassemble it right away.

Ages 5 to 10

  • Let them pack and label one box of their own things.
  • Lamb Elementary sits on the southern edge of Progress Village. Confirm the school zone for your address with Hillsborough County Public Schools before you enroll.

Ages 11 to 13

  • Progress Village Middle Magnet School of the Arts is on the community's southern edge. Magnet programs usually have their own application process, so ask the district early.
  • Give them a floor plan of the new room and let them decide where the bed and desk go.

Ages 14 to 18

  • High school zones vary across this part of the county, so check your exact address with Hillsborough County Public Schools.
  • Get the Wi-Fi running on day one and let teens unpack their own rooms.

Moving during the school year

  • A Friday or weekend move means fewer missed school days.
  • Ask the current school to send records ahead so enrollment is ready when you arrive.

Moving over the summer

  • Summer dates fill fast with other family moves, so book early.
  • Start early in the day to beat the heat and the afternoon storms.

Want the kids' rooms packed for you? Our packing services can handle them the day before, and our residential movers set the beds up first at the new house.

Parts of Progress Village We Move

A 1950s planned village surrounded by some of the newest streets in the county.

The Original Village

Progress Village was founded in the late 1950s as a planned community offering affordable homes to Black families, many displaced by redevelopment in Tampa. Its original single-story homes sit on established streets.

Around Progress Village Park

The community park on Progress Boulevard sits among the original streets. Driveways and curbside parking here usually give the truck an easy spot close to the door.

Newer Subdivisions

The population grew from about 5,400 in 2010 to more than 11,000 in 2020, much of it in new subdivisions. Expect HOA move rules, fresh construction, and streets GPS may not show yet.

Near the Schools

Lamb Elementary and Progress Village Middle Magnet School of the Arts sit on the southern edge. Moves near them go smoother outside drop-off and pickup times.

Along I-75

I-75 forms the eastern edge, with quick routes north toward I-4 and south toward SouthShore. Homes on this side are well placed for long distance moves.

Townhomes and Rentals

Townhome and rental communities in the newer sections set their own move hours and parking rules. We get those from management before we book the truck.

We also move households nearby in Riverview, Palm River-Clair Mel, Brandon, Apollo Beach, Mango and Fish Hawk.

Your Movers Handle Move Day

The crew arrives on time with the map pin you sent, loads to plan, and sets up beds first at the new house.

Moving Into a New Build in Progress Village

Progress Village more than doubled between 2010 and 2020, and a lot of that growth is new construction. If your next home is fresh from the builder, these are the steps that keep closing day and move day from colliding.

Homestead exemption applications are filed with the Hillsborough County Property Appraiser. Need somewhere to keep things if the builder pushes your date? Our storage solutions hold everything until the house is ready.

Planning a Move in Seffner

An interstate, a busy boulevard, and a lot of old trees shape how a move here runs.

I-4 and I-75
I-4 runs along Seffner's northern edge, and the I-4 and I-75 interchange sits just to the west. Both back up at rush hour, so we set drive times around them, especially for moves into Tampa, about 13 miles away.
MLK Boulevard
The southern boundary and the main east-west road. Where a house fronts it, we load from the driveway or a side street instead of the boulevard.
Tree canopy
Seffner is known for its towering live oaks. Low limbs over a driveway can stop a full-size truck, so we check clearance at the estimate and plan a shuttle vehicle if needed.
Soft ground after storms
Summer afternoon storms soften grass and sandy yards fast. We keep the truck on pavement or packed ground and carry the extra distance rather than risk getting stuck.
Sinkhole coverage
West-central Florida is known for sinkhole activity. If you are buying, ask your inspector and insurance agent how sinkhole coverage works on the policy before closing.
County services and storm zones
Seffner is unincorporated Hillsborough County, so county services, including trash pickup, apply. Look up your new address at HCFL.gov/HEAT to see its evacuation zone.
