I live in Ormond Beach Florida. Bought a 5th wheel in Lake Wales and need to get it moved Easter weekend.
Don’t know where the proper place to post this.
Thanks. 32 ft Jayco seismic 2014

Where is the 5er and where do you want it towed to? those are the first questions I would ask. If locally maybe you can find a friend to move it otherwise you may need a professional towing service to move it.

Talk to someone at you local RV dealership. I'm sure they can recommend a transport company to haul it down for you.

As mentioned, go to an RV dealer and ask for recommendations.

Try this guy???
Don't know anything but he advertises on Craigslist in Lakeland area.

Would make sure either his or your insurance will cover any problems.

You've got a few RV dealers not far from you there, hit one of them up to see who they use. I know La Mesa has two dealerships near-ish to you, the Daytona one is likely closest (not that it really matters). They move rigs between their two locations, I'm sure they know someone.
Giant RV, also in Daytona, probably knows someone also.
If I'm not too mistaken I think there is a 'small' RV dealer or two there in Ormond, you might just drop in to see what they have to say.

Unfortunately, LaMesa closed the Daytona store some time ago. There are still numerous dealers in the area that should be able to help. Try Daytona RV on Ridgewood Port Orange. They helped me a few times with other things. Even try LaMesa in Sanford, they move their product around. Best of luck.
If we were still in the area, we would talk.
Might want to check your mileage again. Just checked on Google Maps, 195.

Lots of independent RV movers out there. Check Yelp for one.
About 125 miles on I-4 around Orlando. Nice trip.
