01 Overview

High-Rise and Apartment Moving Through Strict HOA Buildings

The oceanfront and Intracoastal towers across the Palm Beaches do not let just anyone roll a truck up to the dock. They demand certificates of insurance, freight-elevator reservations, dock-time slots and tight move-in windows, and they turn crews away that show up unprepared. Sawgrass Moving and Relocation handles these buildings week in and week out, so the red tape is our job, not yours.

From Boca Raton to Wellington, Palm Beach County movers sets the entire move as one written number — the figure on the estimate is the figure on move day.

The Paperwork, Handled Before Move Day

Most condo associations from West Palm Beach down to Boca require a certificate of insurance naming the HOA before you move a single box. Our office manager, Carmen Ruiz, issues that COI with the exact wording your building wants and gets it on file ahead of time. We also book the freight elevator in your name, lock the loading-dock slot and confirm the building’s allowed days and hours, because plenty of towers only permit moves on weekday windows and blackout weekends entirely.

Crews Built for Towers and Walk-Ups

Our high-rise and stairs chief, Kyle Stockton, sizes the crew to the building. A long carry from a distant dock, an elevator with a weight cap, a third-floor walk-up with no lift at all, each one changes how many movers go out. We hang elevator pads where management requires them and lay lobby and corridor protection so the building stays clean and you stay on good terms with the association. In wet season we hit the dock at dawn so the load is up before the afternoon storms soak the loading area.

One Flat Number, Our Own Crew

Sawgrass runs its own trucks and bilingual crews under Florida FDACS registration and USDOT/MC authority; we never broker your move to an outside carrier. For pricing you can run hourly at $165 for two movers and a truck or $225 for three, with no one-hour minimum, or settle the job on a flat rate that opens at $425 for a studio or one-bedroom. A $115 charge holds the date and is later set against your final bill. Released-value coverage is $0.60 per pound standard, full-value is available, and cargo protection runs to $1,000,000 per shipment.

What’s included

  • Certificate of insurance issued to your building's HOA or management before move day, naming the association as required
  • Freight-elevator reservation and loading-dock time slot coordinated for oceanfront and Intracoastal towers
  • Compliance with strict condo move-in windows, weekday-only rules and after-hours blackout times
  • Stair-capable crews led by our high-rise chief for walk-ups and units above the freight cap
  • Lobby and corridor floor protection plus elevator pad hanging where the building requires it
  • Dawn dock arrivals in wet season so the load clears before afternoon storms and the dock dries

How the price gets set

It starts with a short walkthrough or video survey, and from your real inventory we write one flat Palm Beach County rate — no hourly clock hiding anywhere in it. What that quote reads is the whole price, with nothing tacked on once the truck is loaded or the storm rolls through.

02 How we protect your move

Your belongings get handled as carefully as we would handle our own

Pads, shrink film, and floor runners ride on every truck — ready to wrap furniture, guard terrazzo and tile against a sudden afternoon downpour, and cushion the fragile pieces whether the job is a CBS home on slab in a 55-plus community, a Wellington country-club estate, or an oceanfront tower with a freight-elevator reservation.

Quilted pads

Every dresser, table, and headboard is blanketed right where it stands, and that padding goes on well ahead of the moment anything rolls toward the doorway.

Stretch film

Drawers stay shut and upholstery stays clean — wrapped tight against the humidity and any sudden wet-season downpour on the haul from your door to the truck and back.

Floor & doorway guards

Runners go down, rails get wrapped, and jambs get padded as the very first thing we do — so by the time we drive off, your tile, railings, and trim are exactly as untouched as they were that morning.

Built-to-fit crating

Mirrors, glass tabletops, framed art, and flat screens each earn a crate assembled right there in the room, sized corner to corner for an exact, snug fit.

Break-down & rebuild

Bed frames, dining tables, and sectionals come apart so they ride safely, and once they clear the doorway of your new home our crew reassembles every one.

Straps, dollies & gear

A freight-elevator high-rise, a tight condo corridor, or the heaviest single item you own — each one calls up the matching tie-downs and rigging from our truck, and none of that equipment is ever left behind.

03 Why us

Whatever name is painted on the truck is the same name signed on your contract

Book Sawgrass and the truck at your curb is ours, the paperwork is ours, and the bilingual crew wheeling your sofa onto the condo freight elevator draws a Palm Beach County paycheck from us — your move is never sold off. A broker runs the opposite way: they shop your job to whoever underbids that week, then vanish from the picture.

Sawgrass Moving and Relocation
  • The trucks belong to us and so do the full-time, background-checked movers riding in them — we never staff a job with day labor scraped off a listing board
  • Whatever figure we put on paper is the figure you settle — locked in, signed, and exact to the dollar
  • One unchanged crew, from the first box hoisted onto the truck to the last one carried through your new door
  • Florida (FDACS) intrastate moving registration, USDOT/MC on the books for interstate runs, and every single job backed by full insurance and up to $1,000,000 in cargo coverage
  • One Lake Worth office and one point of contact, from your first call to the last box set down
What a broker does
  • Hands your move off to whatever outfit happens to undercut the rest that week
  • Allows the price to balloon the day of the move, padded with extras that were never raised beforehand
  • Sends a crew you have not exchanged a single word with up your staircase, your whole household in their hands
  • Keeps it vague about which insurance policy actually covers a TV that hits the floor
  • Stands a call center in your way, so reaching whoever eventually turns up to load is a maze

Questions we hear about this service

My oceanfront condo association needs a certificate of insurance before I can move in. Do you provide that?
Yes, and we do it routinely for the towers along the ocean and the Intracoastal. Send us your building's COI requirements and the exact wording the HOA wants and our office manager issues the certificate naming the association before your move date. We will not show up to a building we are not cleared to enter.
How do the freight-elevator and dock reservations work?
Most high-rises only allow moves during a set window with the freight elevator booked in your name and a dock-time slot assigned. We coordinate both with building management ahead of time and pad the elevator if they require it, so the crew arrives inside your slot and works straight through without holding up other residents.
What if my unit is a walk-up or the building has a tight move window?
Those are our specialty. Our high-rise and stairs chief plans the crew size for the climb and the clock, so a tight weekday window or a flight of stairs does not blow up your move. We have the bodies to keep it moving and finish inside the building's allowed time.
