MOVING DAY! | Moving to Orlando, Florida Vlog

- The day is here! Join us for our moving journey from New York to Orlando, Florida! Moving to Florida is something we always wanted to do and now, we're officially Florida residents! We split our trip into two days, stopping in Florence, South Carolina for the night. The drive wasn't too bad and stopping along the way definitely helped. Once we arrived at the house, our pod from 1-800-Pack Rat arrived and we started to bring some smaller items inside. The next day, we hired help to unload the pod and there were SO many boxes to unpack! Little by little, we're unpacking and have made great progress to this point. Bunny, our cat, loves his new home and is adjusting quite well! We'll keep you updated with how things are going in the coming weeks.

My parents moved from New York to Florida 30 years ago now, and they still love it to this day.
Happy to hear that! I’m sure we’ll feel the same way!
The amount of content they are gonna make in Orlando is gonna be awesome !
Hope you come along for the ride!
Congrats on making the move!! Can’t wait to see everything you have coming up. Winnie loved watching Bunny. We need more Bunny in the future lol
Thank you! There will certainly be more Bunny in the future now that he’s living with us!
Yay congrats! Glad the move went well
Thank you! Happy to be here! 🏡
Welcome to Florida y’all!
Thanks!
My wife and I just moved from Pennsylvania to Orlando in June !!! We aren’t as sad haha. Welcome to Orlando. Subscribed ! 👍🏽🙌🏽
Congrats on the move!! It’s great here, we’re loving it so far! Appreciate you watching and subscribing!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs no problem. We went to Disney springs on Saturday it was amazing
A lot of my family moved to Orlando from up north. I settled in Jacksonville
Hope you’re enjoying it there! Thanks for watching 👍🏻
@@MattAndAlexVlogsI sure am! Don’t miss the snow one bit lol
Nice vlog, welcome to Florida👍! I live here too in So Flo 😊
Thank you! We’re loving it so far!
Bunny looks tall like a big cat!
Haha he's pretty long! The amount of hair he has makes him look even bigger 🤣
Hi guys, congratulations on the house. I'm building my house in Minneola with dreamfinders. Have you guys had any issues with your build since closing or any warranty issues? Any info or advice you can give me would be very helpful. I'm building the avalon with bonus+. thanks you. 😁
Congrats! When it comes time for you walkthroughs, make sure you document EVERYTHING. Dealing with warranty has been a mess, but luckily, our home didn’t have as many issues as a lot of our neighbors. People by us have been dealing with termites, flooding, water under the tiles, etc. it’s been a nightmare over here in our community.
@@MattAndAlexVlogs Thanks. Yes walk through and being there with the inspectors during construction will help. Are you in central Orlando or more like Clearmont area? And has anyone said where flooding comes from? I was gonna put down wood and I'll be in the hills of Minneola.
Congratulations on your new house and move to Florida! We are in NJ and are planning to move to Florida , we love your channel and your enthusiasm. How was your experience with PackRat and getting a moving pod? Thanks! 😊
Thank you! Best of luck to you on the move!
We personally had a very good experience with PackRat. We received a lower quote from another company and they matched it, no questions asked. Everything came on time as communicated 👍🏻
@@MattAndAlexVlogs thank you very much! 😊
I take pictures of state signs as we travel. Actually, I take photos of everything. Traffic will hit in FLorida.
You are lucky you are newlyweds, my wife and I were in our first house for 34 years, you just can’t believe how much “STUFF” you accumulate in 34 years of marriage. You kitchen looks great, I can’t wait for the house tour. Enjoy your new home and I hope Bunny gets acclimated to the her new home.
Congratulations guys, quick question did you guys stop for the night in a hotel in SC, if so which one? Thanks for your help.
Thank you! We did stop in Florence, SC for a night. We stayed at a Home 2 Suites, right off of 95.
Thank you guys very much, me and my family are moving to Orlando this week so we will be stopping in SC for the night as well.
Congrats and best of luck!
Bunny has to be on the blog more!!
Oh he will! He’s a star now 😂
What company did you hire for moving your stuff
We used 1-800 PACK RAT for our pod container
Sob is so weird I went in one day
We can only imagine lol
6:53 Man your nose👃is humungofus as fucc lmao 🤣
Hey, thanks man!! Appreciate it!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs btw I love ❤ your video
Miss you both already! Love how the house came out - can’t wait to see everything in person! Looking forward to future house videos 💗💗
Thank you! Miss you too! 😃
Congratulations 🎊🎉 on the move, your home looks beautiful! Thank you for sharing! Cannot wait to move down from New Jersey to Orlando area! 2 more years to retirement! Woohoo! 🙌
Thank you! 2 years will go by quickly!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs You are most welcome, you are right 2 years will go by quickly,
I hope my wife and I can move there soon. We were looking last year and it just wasn't time yet. We live near Harrisburg pa, so not far from you guys. Did you take i95 the whole way, or did you take 81 part of the way? Also what part of Orlando did you move? My stepbrother lives in Minneola and it's booming like lake Nona and other Orlando suburbs.
We hope so too! We took 95 down the whole way (mostly). We’re in Clermont, another area that has boomed so much in the last year or so.
@@MattAndAlexVlogs Yeah I guess i95 would be easier for you. I just avoid it until virginia lol. Claremont is really nice also. Congratulations on you're move.
Oh Gosh....
Florida is filling up too much population here now!!!!
The housing shortages along the Gulf Coast bis awful......
Not sure how many more new residents Florida can take much longer....
Our population is getting out of control in Florida...
Congratulations I am in SW Florida, come visit Anna Maria Island.....
It's gorgeous, I love this area to live in Florida along the Gulf Coast......
Safe Travels...
Certainly a lot of people relocating here! We’re actually going to Anna Maria Island for our anniversary in July! Looking forward to experiencing it 👍🏻
Yeah, if you are going to live in Orlando, you're going to need a Sun Pass. It's hard to get to the airport without using a toll road. To be fair, I4 is a complete mess so I don't mind paying the fees as much. Welcome to Orlando. I have lived here for about 10 years - in Florida for about 12 (lived in Jacksonville before Orlando). I really like the weather and love no state income tax!
Thanks, Jason! Happy to finally be here!
Just got a sun pass !! He’s right
G-UNIT!!!😂🙌 this was so fun to watch you guys on your journey down to FL. My parents said the same thing about moving with their little dog, they felt so bad they were confusing her with all the hotels and long roadtrip! Hope you guys are feeling more settled in, and bunny too 💛 Your home is BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you so much!! Bunny did great overall and is settling in nicely, as are we! G-unit! 😂
Congratulations, we ended up buying a new build in. Clermont instead of Horizons West. We hope to be moving early next spring. We currently live in Massachusetts and can’t wait to leave !
Thank you! Congrats to you, too! You’re going to love Clermont 👍🏻🍊
@@MattAndAlexVlogs we are moving to Ridgeview across from Lake Luisa State Park !
Congratulations, moving is such a pain from one part of town to the other. I can not even imagine moving cross country. Best of luck with the new house
Thank you so much! Wasn’t easy, but we got here!
So So happy for you guys!! The hard part is over! Enjoy 🥰
Thank you, Caitlyn! Hope to see you guys soon! 😄
You guys have the Juliska berry & thread! Nice! I have both white & chambray (mixed other types of juliska).
Yes! Love that set!
We are trying to move tp Florida from mn. Want to go to ocala area. Love bunny carrier where did you get? We need for our cat . Is that food next to him . Did you al have Joba first or any tips you can give would be appreciated. Congratulations on your move
Best of luck to you! Our jobs were lined up prior to the move, so that was a smooth process. We got Bunny’s carrier on Amazon!
I’m saving up my money to move to Jacksonville Florida
I’m currently in Brooklyn ny
Best of luck to you!!
Orlando is not a good place to live... it's nice in the beginning because you think it's disney but it's not..you guys should move to Naples ft Myers Clearwater or south FL. ORLANDO IS. BAD...
We’re outside of Orlando itself and our town is beautiful! We love it!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs don’t pay attention to this negative comments. I live in the Orlando for 23 yrs. You guys did great choosing Clermont just outside of Orlando, which is great because you get that residential vibe in Clermont and the city vibe and theme parks just a few minutes away in Orlando. Excellent choice. 👌
We’re so happy! Love the area!
So happy for you guys! It's fun, emotional and such a great feeling. Don't forget to hit up Calabrias for dinner 😋 Going to keep bugging you til you try it lol. Bunny in the dishwasher was the highlight of this vlog 😄
Thank you! You’re the second person who’s mentioned Calabria’s this week, so we’ll definitely have to try it out!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs Also Donut King down highway 27. Amazing!!!!!!
What do you guys do for jobs?
We both work remotely from home
more Bunny content please....but we're so happy you guys made it and can't wait to see you soon!
Bunny is in high demand! 😂 Looking forward to seeing you both!
I'm originally from New Jersey and my fiance and I took that long drive to move here to Orlando a little over a month ago and boy it was a very long trip and very emotional. We did the full 17 hours without sleep and it was very emotional leaving my family behind. Our car looked just like yours with our sweet Bella girl(dog) stuffed in the back too. So glad you had a safe drive and welcome to Florida. We welcome you with open arms🤗
Not many people prepare you for the emotions of making a move this big. So many feelings! We’re happy to finally be here ☀️
I just subscribed to your channel. I love you, guys! I think you guys are great and I wish you the best on your move. I also just finished watching your Epcot 2022 food and wine festival video. I wish you the best of luck. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much, Elizabeth! We appreciate you watching! 👍🏻
Congrats on the big move Matt and Alex. Your fellow New York neighbor will miss you guys 😂😂 can’t wait to see more theme park content once you both are settled in. Maybe it’s time for these New Yorkers to make the great migration to Florida like everyone else!!😂🤣
Thank you! Sounds like a good plan!
Fun Times, New Adventures. How many square feet is the new Home? Bigger or smaller, then what you had before? I've been looking at Homes around WDW, too.
Fun times, indeed! We weren’t in a house before, so this is a lot more space than what we previously were living in! Definitely a place we’ll be at for many years to come 👍🏻
I feel you skipped important stuff. What was the cost, where did you move to. Nobody cares about you unpacking.
The feedback on this video would say otherwise, but thanks for watching. We won’t be disclosing exactly where we moved to or the cost of our home. Some things are meant to be kept private. If you’re looking for pricing info/insights within the Orlando area, we suggest connecting with a realtor 👍🏻
New fan here. You have dreamed of this and I can't wait to get out of Florida. I never ever wanted to live here. I crave cold and snow. LOL
That makes one of us! 😂😂
@@MattAndAlexVlogs LOL
Let’s see the outside of the house and neighborhood.
It looks very nice. Good luck.
What do you do for “day” jobs?
Thank you, Jeff! Certain things are going to be kept private, but we’ll continue to showcase our area. Hope you understand!
Happy when people move to the big cities instead of the better small cities with private places to go .
All about what people prefer. We’re in a smaller city within Orlando, so it’s the best of both worlds!
Congratulations on y’all wonderful Journey I can’t wait till I move there
Thank you! Wishing you the best!
Welcome to Orlando 👋🏼
Thanks so much! So excited to be here ☺️
Congratulations on the move! Fellow NYers here, but made a move to PA 6 years ago so we know how you guys felt when you left your childhood homes behind.
Been binge watching you Hawaii videos this weekend as we plan on making the trip next spring. Thank you for the great coverage, it’s been very helpful and informative!
Thanks so much for watching, Matt! Glad you’re finding the videos helpful!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs we are! We are going to the same two islands and coming from the east coast so the information was what we are looking for. Don’t want to hijack this since this video is on a completely different topic, maybe I’ll ask a question or two about your experience in the comments on the Hawaii videos 👍
This is my dream with my husband and cats haha one day soon! Best wishes!
Thank you! Hopefully one day you’ll be here as well! ☀️
So happy for you both. I cried with you Alex. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! Lots of emotions!
I have to ask, how did Bunny make out with the litter box in her carrier? Did you have to get Bunny and sedatives for the trip?
He didn’t use the litter box in the car at all, he just laid down the whole way. We didn’t get any prescriptions from the vet for him, but we got him CBD treats and oil, which worked wonders
@@MattAndAlexVlogs Thanks for the info, I never thought about that route to take.
How are things going for you since you moved?
Everything’s been great, thank you! Loving it so far 😎
Psssst…. Blur out those Red speed limits.
😂😂
So exciting! Congratulations again.
Thank you so much! 👍🏻
Making a big mistake moving to Orlando I’m from jersey living in Tampa
Orlando is where we want to be! Tampa is a great city too 👍🏻
@@MattAndAlexVlogs what area
Woooooo!!! Welcome welcome!!
Thank you!! So exciting!
Orlando is too crowded
Not when you’re from NYC 😂
Sad cause you can't enjoy like one used to be able to enjoy. 20 cars at the red light
I’ll be moving there next year
That’s great! You’ll love it!
