Same here. One of the re-sale homes we looked at had one in the driveway...

Go figure...

Question An Aside

As I understand it Florida just passed or is processing a law protecting some users
from some Mover's abuses. Allegedly there have been cases where movers have held up
deliveries for more money, etc. I think this new law is meant to address issues like that.
I am not sure what the contents of law is but if you have any problems you may want to
look into it??

Agree with the above. I would add that I would want to see the movers insurance in case they damaged the furniture.

I don't know why your would ask here. Some guy or gal on talk of the villages told me has zero validity. I would call the villages administration. Depending on where your purchased villages home is, your moving van may need to use a particular gate or????
Can't be much fun driving around the villages lost with a huge moving van.

Lots of speculation and hearsay about pods. My deed restriction document doesn't prohibit them and I can't find anything about it on the districtgov.org website. So, where is it written that pods are not allowed?

Someone told someone that they heard it from someone that it was prohibited.

So, I interpret this sentence to mean that the moving company is offering to show you, the customer, their (the moving company's) proof of insurance, so that you know you (the customer) are protected in case of mishap.

Yes, you should verify that the moving company has sufficient insurance.

Oy vey...

No, I know the movers have insurance.

THEY wanted to know if they had to show anyone at TV, if there was some HOA that require it...

And why ask here?

Because it would seem than many, if not most of the people living here would have dealt with movers and would know if it was an issue...

Only if you will have a mortgage. If you paid cash for the house, it's your decision to have insurance or not
