Moving in Oviedo

Oviedo is a Seminole County city of about 40,000 people, roughly 20 minutes from downtown Orlando by way of SR 417 and SR 408. It sits next to the University of Central Florida and its research park, along the Econlockhatchee River and Lake Jesup. Its downtown is known for the free-roaming chickens that locals call the roosters. Toro Movers is a family-owned company founded in 2024, and our crews work in English and Spanish.

What shapes an Oviedo move

Because of UCF and the research park, Oviedo has a mix of long-term homeowners and students and young professionals who move on a shorter cycle. The neighborhoods fall into a few groups.

  • Alafaya Woods, an established neighborhood near Alafaya Trail and the university
  • Twin Rivers, a large community that includes a golf course
  • Kingsbridge, a mature neighborhood near Mitchell Hammock Road, with some Long Lake sections
  • Live Oak Reserve, a newer master-planned community with lakefront and conservation areas
  • Oviedo on the Park, a walkable town-center area near Center Lake Park, with townhomes and single-family homes
  • Lake Jesup and Black Hammock, a rural area with acreage and no HOA

Each type has a different challenge. Student rentals near Alafaya Trail can fill with moves in the same weeks, so book early if you are moving in August or May. In Live Oak Reserve and other newer HOA communities, parking and driveway rules matter. Rural lots near Lake Jesup often have long dirt or gravel drives, so tell us about the surface.

History you can see

Oviedo was a citrus and celery farming town. Two of its historic districts, Nelson and Company and the Estes Celery Precooler, reflect that history. Downtown has older buildings, and State Road 434 runs through it. If you are moving to or from an older downtown address, send us the street address and we will plan the approach.

Roads and timing

SR 417 and SR 408 are the two key routes to Orlando, with SR 434 (Broadway Street) crossing the center of town. Alafaya Trail is the major road toward UCF. Weekday mornings and the late afternoon peak are busy on SR 434 and Alafaya Trail, so for an out-of-town or Orlando destination we usually avoid those hours.

Summer storms are common in Central Florida, so we check the forecast the morning of the move.

FAQ

Oviedo FAQs

If both Oviedo stops are in Central Florida and you want the truck included, start with a move that brings the truck. If you already have the rental, start with a labor-only crew. If the hard part is the floor and the dock, start with apartment access in Oviedo.

Do you move students near UCF?

Yes. Send the building, floor and elevator rules, and tell us if the move must be completed before a lease deadline.

What about the roosters downtown?

They are a local attraction and are not a problem for a truck, but give us an exact address so we can plan a safe approach.

Can you handle a long dirt driveway near Lake Jesup?

Yes. Describe the surface and the length, and we will decide whether to use a smaller truck.
