Best Gandy-Sun Bay South, FL Moving Company
Gandy-Sun Bay South is a South Tampa neighborhood on the Interbay Peninsula, inside the City of Tampa. The city spells it Gandy/Sun Bay South and lists its borders as Gandy Boulevard to the north, Tampa Bay to the west, S. MacDill Avenue to the east, and Interbay Boulevard, Everett Avenue and Manhattan Avenue to the south. Most locals simply call it South of Gandy. It is close to MacDill Air Force Base, the Gandy Bridge and the rest of South Tampa.
This is one of the fastest-changing parts of Tampa. Older one-story homes sit next to new townhomes, and the Westshore Marina District has brought waterfront apartments, townhomes and shops near the Gandy Bridge. The Westshore Yacht Club area adds condo buildings and homes by the bay. For condo and apartment moves, we book the elevator, send the building our insurance paperwork, and work within your move-in window. For townhomes, we plan for extra flights of stairs and bring the right tools to take large furniture apart.
MacDill Air Force Base sits just to the south, so many of our moves here are for military families. We handle military moves both local and long-distance and can plan around your report date. The neighborhood is low and close to the water, so many new homes are raised with extra stairs. Summer brings heat and afternoon storms, and Gandy Boulevard traffic gets heavy at rush hour, so we like early starts. We also check where the truck can park, since some newer streets are narrow and townhome rows often share tight driveways.
People love living this close to the water. Salt Shack on the Bay and Hula Bay Club on Tyson Avenue draw crowds by car and by boat, and Gandy Park South has great views of the bridge. Picnic Island Park and Ballast Point Park are a short drive away. Kids attend schools like Chiaramonte Elementary, Lanier Elementary and Robinson High. Our Tampa crew is in South of Gandy all the time, moving renters, first-time buyers and families who are upsizing.
We also serve nearby Interbay and Ballast Point, along with the rest of South Tampa. A & M Friendly Movers is family-owned since 2015, and we move every Gandy-Sun Bay South home like it is our own. 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.
