Edison Park is one of the original neighborhoods of Old Fort Myers — 1940s and '50s homes shaded by banyan trees along McGregor Boulevard, just steps from the Edison & Ford Winter Estates and a short walk to the River District. Moving a historic home takes a different level of care than a standard suburban move, and that's what Two Chicks Moving specializes in here. Call for a free, no-pressure quote from someone who's actually done this move before.
Edison Park’s housing stock predates the county’s more recent construction booms by decades, and it shows in the details: original hardwood and terrazzo flooring, built-in cabinetry, plaster walls instead of drywall, and in some homes, wiring and fixtures original to the era. None of that is a problem for our crews, but it does change how we pack. We use ink-free padding on original wood surfaces, floor runners through entryways with terrazzo or hardwood, and custom crating for anything irreplaceable — art, china, mirrors — rather than treating an Edison Park move like a standard tract-home relocation.
The same banyan trees that make McGregor Boulevard one of the most photographed streets in Southwest Florida also mean tighter overhead clearance and root systems that can buckle old driveways and sidewalks. Our crews know which blocks need a smaller truck or a longer carry from the street, so we’re not improvising that on move day. If your move is heading further into Fort Myers’s core, we also service the River District and surrounding downtown area, and if it’s continuing beyond Lee County, we run it as a full long-distance move within Florida with the same crew the entire way.
Base hourly rates in Edison Park match the rest of Fort Myers — $50 to $75 per mover, per hour, with a standard two-person, four-hour job running $400 to $600. Where an Edison Park move can run longer than average is the packing phase: homes with built-ins, antique furniture, or fragile architectural pieces (light fixtures, mirrors, mantels) typically need more prep time before loading than a newer-construction home. We’ll flag that during your quote so there’s no surprise on the invoice.
For homeowners moving out of Edison Park to elsewhere in Florida, pricing is based on total weight, packing complexity, and mileage rather than an hourly rate — typically $2,000 to $4,000 for a full-service long-distance move, or $487 to $1,329 for a shorter in-state relocation. Given how often these moves involve antiques or estate items, we recommend booking your in-home walkthrough earlier than you would for a standard move, so we can plan crating and packing materials in advance.
We operate as a luxury moving company that manages every residential and commercial transition using our full-time, background-checked employees. We never source casual day labor pools or risk your property with unverified third-party contractors—ensuring absolute asset security.
We treat each and every item with the utmost care and respect. Upholstered items are sealed in ClearGuard plastic wrap before furniture pads are applied, and specialized custom crating is available for fine art, china, mirrors, and chandeliers.
Getting the best service for your move does not mean you have to pay the highest price. We charge transparent hourly rates, which means no surprises on move day. We will give you the best local rate—or we will move you for FREE!

Excellence in Motion: The Methodical Steps Behind Our Service
Not necessarily a specialty company, but you do want a crew experienced with older construction. Original hardwood, terrazzo, plaster walls, and built-in cabinetry all need different handling than a newer home, and Two Chicks Moving’s crews are trained to protect those details specifically.
Sometimes, depending on your specific block and driveway access. Our crews check truck clearance and root-buckled pavement ahead of time so we bring the right size vehicle and know whether a longer carry from the street is needed.
Earlier than a standard move — ideally 4 to 6 weeks out — so we can plan custom crating for fragile or irreplaceable pieces and schedule enough packing time before loading day.
Local moves run $50 to $75 per mover per hour, with most four-hour, two-person jobs falling between $400 and $600. Homes with extensive antiques or built-ins may need additional packing time, which we’ll estimate upfront during your quote.
Yes — this is one of our most common request types in this neighborhood. We use custom crating, ink-free padding, and floor runners specifically for historic homes with original flooring, mirrors, china, or inherited furniture.
