Fort Lauderdale Movers

Broward County Moving Company

Known as the "Venice of America," Fort Lauderdale is one of the three primary cities in the South Florida metro area, boasting a population of over 180,000.

The city gets its nickname from its intricate canal system and waterways. The waterways are such a major part of being a Fort Lauderdale resident, that the city has over 100 marinas and boatyards and over 40,000 resident yachts.

In short, if boating is your thing, Ft. Lauderdale is your city!

Ft. Lauderdale City History

As the city's name implies, Fort Lauderdale was initially founded as a series of forts during the Seminole Wars of the 1830s. The name "Lauderdale" is derrived from Major William Lauderdale, the commander who built the first fort in the area.

The city is zoned in between Interstate 95 to the west and Federal Highway to the East, with Commercial and Davie Boulevards bordering Ft. Lauderdale to the north and south. The Florida East Coast Railway runs right through the center of the city.
