No more ice storms or slushy winters. Summers are hotter and more humid than Philly — air conditioning is a year-round necessity. Hurricane season runs June–November.

Florida has no state income tax vs PA’s 3.07%. Property taxes generally lower in Florida. 30-day vehicle + license re-registration after establishing FL residency.
Specific tips for Philadelphia movers

- Book 6+ weeks ahead for Philadelphia-to-Orlando long-distance moves
- Consider splitting your move: DIY driving in your own vehicle + pros driving your stuff
