Davenport is a city in Polk County, Florida, United States. It is part of the LakelandWinter Haven Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 9,043 at the 2020 Census. The city's population has increased dramatically since the 2010 Census, when the population was 2,888.

History

[edit]

The settlement in the area now known as Davenport was established in 1838 when the US military set up Fort Davenport during the Second Seminole War, about 12 miles north of the present site of Davenport. The fort was one of a number built at 20 mile intervals along a trail from Fort Brooke to Fort Mellon. The fort only lasted a few years.[4] The fort was named for Colonel William Davenport, who served as the local U.S. commander in the war.[5] There is no known documentary evidence to support an alternative claim that the city was named for a railroad conductor.[5][6]

The modern city of Davenport had its start in the 1880s when the South Florida Railroad was extended to that point.[7] The settlement was first known as Horse Creek, for the creek first recorded on a US Army survey of 1849 which flows past the site to enter Snell Creek and eventually Lake Hatchineha in the Kissimmee River system.[8] A post office was established at Horse Creek in 1884, and the name of the post office was changed to Davenport in 1886.[5][9] Davenport was incorporated in 1915.[9]

The South Florida Railroad opened a station half a mile north of the present site of the city. The railroad line was acquired by the Plant System in 1893, and the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad in 1902. In 1926, it was replaced by a new station in the downtown area. It was later closed in the 1970s. From 1958 to 1986 there was a second station, the Vertagreen Railroad Station, opened only for the transportation of fertilizer and not for public use.[10]

Economy

[edit]

The area around Davenport in northeast Polk County used to be centered on the remote Circus World amusement park. It was redeveloped in 1987 into Boardwalk and Baseball and included a minor league baseball park that would attract spring training and minor league baseball teams for the Kansas City Royals, earning the area the moniker "Baseball City". The amusement park failed in 1990, and the Royals left for Arizona and the Cactus League in 2003. The Baseball City name is now extinct, and the area around the stadium (which was demolished in 2005) has been redeveloped into Posner Park, a large outdoor shopping mall.

Transportation

[edit]
  • I-4 – Located 8 miles north of town, this freeway provides access westward to Lakeland and Tampa, and eastward to the Walt Disney World Resort and Orlando.
  • US 17 / US 92 – This main north/south route cuts through the center of town, leading northward to Kissimmee and southward to Haines City.
  • US 27 – Located a few miles west of town, US 27 provides access to I-4 going northward, and leads southward to Haines City and Lake Wales.

Railroads have always been a part of Davenport's history, and freight and passenger trains still run through the city, although the railroad stations have been closed for many years. The former ACL main line which ran through the city is now part of the CSX Carters Subdivision.

A moving company, also known as a removalist or van line, is a company specializes in assisting individuals and businesses with relocating their goods from one location to another. Moving companies may offer additional or all-inclusive services for relocations, like packing, loading, moving, unloading, unpacking, and arranging of items to be shifted. Additional services may include cleaning services for houses, offices or warehousing facilities.

Overview

[edit]

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2007, 40 million United States citizens had moved annually over the previous decade.[1] Of these movers, 84.5% relocated within their own state, 12.5% moved to another state, and 2.3% moved to another country.[2]

The U.S. Department of Defense is the largest household goods shipper in the world with the Personal Property Program accounting for 20% of all moves.[3]

A 2020 OnePoll survey showed that 64% of participants consider their recent move to be one of the most stressful events they have ever encountered.[4]

Pricing and services

[edit]

United States and Canada

[edit]

In the U.S. and Canada, the cost for long-distance moves is generally determined by several factors:

  • Weight of the items to be moved
  • Distance between the original and new location
  • Speed of the move
  • Timing of the move, including the specific time of year or month

Some movers also offer consolidated shipping, which reduces costs by transporting several clients' items in the same shipment.

United Kingdom and Australia

[edit]

In the United Kingdom and Australia, the price is based on the volume of the items rather than their weight.[5] Some movers may offer flat rate pricing.

DIY moving

[edit]

The use of truck rental services, or simply borrowing similar hardware, is referred to as DIY moving. Individuals or families may rent a truck or trailer large enough to transport their household goods. They may also acquire moving equipment such as dollies, furniture pads, and cargo belts to facilitate the move and protect their belongings.

Packing and materials

[edit]

The moving process also involves finding or buying materials such as boxes, paper, tape, and bubble wrap with which to pack boxable and/or protect fragile household goods and to consolidate the carrying and stacking on moving day. Self-service moving companies offer another viable option: the person moving buys space on one or more trailers or shipping containers. These containers are then driven by professionals to the new location.

Frequently Asked Questions

In short, no. Having $20k saved up to move out is ideal, it gives you extra cash for deposits and whatever else you might need. However, you cannot intend to live on $20,000. To give you a different idea about how much that is, that averages about $9 an hour, which is hard to live on.

Do You Tip Your Movers When They Load or Unload? With moving, as with so many tippable services, it's usually best to offer a tip after the job is completed. This means waiting until your belongings have been unloaded at your destination.

The main reason such a huge amount of people move house on a Friday is that it's the gateway to the weekend. Booking Friday off work to move means a healthy three days to get settled and unpacked in your new home. Moving house on a Friday will mean less disruption to the housing chain if you're buying a house. Oct 17, 2024
