Relocation FAQ
Helpful Answers Before You Move
Which city or town should I contact first? 
Start with the municipality for your exact property address: Daytona Beach, Daytona Beach Shores, Ponce Inlet, Port Orange, or another Volusia County city. Utilities, permitting, garbage, and emergency contacts may vary by address.
Where do new residents handle driver license and vehicle services?
Use the Volusia County Tax Collector and Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles resources for driver license, REAL ID, tag, title, registration, documentation, and appointment requirements.
How do I find current utility providers?
Confirm by exact address. Daytona Beach Shores, Ponce Inlet, Daytona Beach, and Port Orange each publish utility guidance, but water, sewer, garbage, and billing responsibilities can depend on location.
Should I rely on printed phone numbers for relocation tasks?
Use printed numbers only as a starting point. Government offices, branch services, hours, and phone trees change, so official websites should be treated as the current source.
