Despite spending 35 years in South Florida, my family moves every 1-2 years. This experience has given me a lot of knowledge in what questions to ask when selecting a mover and how to prepare for a move. I even used Bellhop to move from Florida to Colorado in 2021. I spend my free time with my family, hiking, exploring breweries and new restaurants in the area.
