Tampa Car Shipping

The county seat of Hillsborough County, Tampa is a city that can be found on the western coast of Florida bordering the Gulf of Mexico. With a population of over 390,000 people, Tampa is the third largest city in Florida. A regular destination for car shipping, Tampa is an extremely popular place to visit and to work in.

Tampa Bay is an area that has been inhabited by different people for thousands of years, and the Spanish first explored the area in the early 16^th century. The U.S gained control of Florida in 1821 when the land was purchased from Spain, and the first permanent settlement – Fort Brooke – was established in 1824 in what is now Downtown Tampa.

Florida became a state in 1845, and Tampa was incorporated in 1849 as the Village of Tampa, subsequently reincorporated as a town 6 years later. After the Civil War, the city and its economy needed to be rebuilt, and railroad links in the 1880s helped with this. Phosphate and cigar exports bolstered the economy, with the cigar industry peaking in 1929 producing over a half-billion cigars.

An air force base was established in response to World War II, and the University of South Florida opened in 1960. Growth for businesses, offices, and homes continued with the largest recent growth beginning in 1988 with the development of New Tampa.

For people moving to the area permanently to live, of for temporary jobs or to become a student, a car transport service is vital to reduce the stress encountered when moving cross country.

Tampa is now a major cultural and business center in Florida and is home to both an MLB team and an NFL team – the Tampa Rays and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The temperature in Tampa has never reached 100 degrees, and during the summer Tampa is often cooler than other cities in Florida due to its position on the Gulf of Mexico. The average daily highs reach the mid-to-upper 80s. In winter there is very little chance of snow, and the daily highs are in the low 70s, dropping to the high 50s at night.

Car transport to Florida is popular during winter as many people choose to move to cities like Tampa to avoid poor weather conditions found in other cities around the country. Cheap car shipping makes the move much easier.
