Best Riverview, FL Moving Company
Riverview is one of the biggest and fastest-growing communities in Hillsborough County, with more than 110,000 people living between the Alafia River and Big Bend Road. It started as a small river town in the 1880s, and today it stretches from older streets along Riverview Drive to brand-new subdivisions off Boyette Road and US 301. Our Tampa crew moves families here every week, and we know how different one side of Riverview can be from the other. Bell Creek Nature Preserve and Winthrop Town Centre are local favorites.
Most homes in Riverview are one- and two-story houses and townhomes inside HOA communities. Many neighborhoods have rules on where a moving truck can park, what hours crews can work, and how long a portable storage container can sit in the driveway. Some also require a gate code or a heads-up to the management office. Tell us your community’s rules and we will plan the move around them, so move-in day stays friendly with the new neighbors and you do not get a warning letter the first week.
Traffic is the other big factor here. US 301, Big Bend Road, Boyette Road, and the I-75 exits get busy at rush hour, and the average Riverview commute is about 35 minutes each way. We schedule start times to beat the worst of it and route trucks around school pickup lines when we can. Weekends near the Big Bend Road shopping centers can get busy too. In summer we also plan for heat and afternoon thunderstorms by wrapping furniture well, keeping floors covered, and loading fast when the sky turns dark.
Every kind of move comes through Riverview. Young families move into new builds near Sumner High School, empty nesters downsize into homes in walkable Winthrop, and people relocate here from other states. We handle full-service packing and unpacking, furniture disassembly and setup, and moves across town or across the country. We also pack fragile items like TVs, mirrors, and artwork with extra care. For a move within Riverview, we can often finish the whole job in a single day.
We also work in nearby Brandon, Gibsonton, and Progress Village, so if your new home is just across the river or down US 301, the same crew can handle it. Family-owned since 2015, A & M Friendly Movers treats every Riverview move like we are helping our own neighbors. Our mission is simple: quality, professional service at a fair price. Home is where the heart is, and moving is where it starts. Call 813-544-0048 for a free quote.

★★★★★
“Excellent experience! We have moved 11 times and once overseas and A&M is in the top two moves! They communicate well and there are no curveballs. Chris, Zack & “Ox” were hard working, courteous and professional. They moved us quickly and took great care with our property. When initially speaking with Matt, he realized I was a Veteran and he immediately offered a Veteran’s discount. I would highly recommend A&M Friendly Movers because they live their name!”

“We had a wonderful experience with the team at A&M movers. The office was easy to communicate with as they handle inquiries by both phone and text. The crew at our move today was very professional and efficient. They were very careful with our belongings and meticulously wrapped all of our furniture. Highly recommend this team for your move!”

Moving in Riverview: Local Tips From Our Crew
Parking, trash pickup, traffic and building rules can make or break moving day in Riverview. Here’s what we plan around.
Bulky Item Pickup
Riverview is unincorporated Hillsborough County, so furniture, mattresses, and appliances left after a move need a fee-based special bulky pickup, which you must call (813) 272-5680 to schedule before setting items at the curb.
Trash Day & Boxes
Carts and yard waste can go out no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before collection, and moving boxes are counted in bundles of 20 per bulky item, so recycle what you can.
Traffic & Routes
I-75 forms Riverview’s western edge with exits 246, 250, 254, and 256, and US 301 runs through the west side. We plan routes and start times around commuter traffic on those corridors.
New Construction & HOAs
Riverview grew about 51% between 2010 and 2020 (71,050 to 107,396 residents), so many moves are into new-build subdivisions. Confirm your closing date, gate codes, and HOA move rules ahead of time, since most communities require them.
Weather & Hurricane Season
Hurricane season runs June 1–Nov 30, peaking around Sept 10, and Tampa Bay summers are long and hot. Book early in the day and keep a backup date during peak storm weeks.
What Shapes Your Riverview Move Cost
No surprises. Here is exactly what goes into your quote, so you can plan with confidence.
Home Size
How many rooms and how much furniture. A condo and a four-bedroom house are very different jobs.
Distance
Across town, across Hillsborough County, or out of state. Local moves are hourly; long-distance moves are priced upfront.
Access
Rush-hour traffic on US 301, Big Bend Road and I-75, plus HOA rules on truck parking and move hours, affect timing more than stairs or elevators in Riverview.
Add-Ons
Packing, storage, furniture assembly, and heavy items like pianos and safes.
