Moving from Miami to Atlanta is a trade a lot of South Floridians are making right now. You keep the warm weather and the no-state-income-tax paycheck, but you swap Miami rents and hurricane season for a bigger place, real seasons, and one of the fastest-growing job markets in the country.
The hard part is the 660 miles in between. That is where you want the right crew.
At Pro Movers Miami, we handle the full trip ourselves. No brokers, no handoffs to a third-party crew somewhere off I-75. Your furniture goes on our truck, driven by our team, and delivered to your new front door in Atlanta. That is how it works every time.
Miami to Atlanta: What You’re Looking At
The drive from Miami to Atlanta runs about 660 miles up I-75 North, roughly a 10-hour trip without stops. For a loaded moving truck, once you factor in loading, rest breaks, and safe driving hours, you are looking at a one to two-day delivery window, which is standard for this distance.
Atlanta sits in Fulton County in north-central Georgia and anchors a metro area of about 6.4 million people, the ninth largest in the country. It has been one of the top metros in the nation for numeric growth, pulling in new residents from across the South and the Northeast for the same reasons you are considering it: space, jobs, and a lower monthly cost.
Why People Are Leaving Miami for Atlanta
The cost difference is real. According to Numbeo’s 2026 comparison, you would need around $8,800 in Miami to match the lifestyle roughly $7,000 buys in Atlanta once rent is included. The average one-bedroom in Atlanta runs close to $1,500, and the median metro home price sits around $395,000, well below what the same money buys in Brickell or Coral Gables.
The job market is deep and varied. Atlanta is home to more than a dozen Fortune 500 headquarters, including Delta, Coca-Cola, The Home Depot, and UPS. Add a fast-growing film and tech sector and the world’s busiest airport as a logistics anchor, and the range of work goes well beyond any single industry.
Four seasons, no cone of uncertainty. Atlanta gets mild summers, actual fall color, and the occasional light winter, all without the coastal hurricane risk and rising insurance premiums that come with South Florida living. For a lot of families, that alone tips the decision.
