After moving the dryer across the room I have noticed moisture on the floor around the dryer. It is properly vented, and never did this before. Any suggestions?

Yes, the reason you have condensation on the floor is because the vent is clogged to the outside. You need to clear it out. Tom ApplianceEducator.com

If the vent is clear and the vent louvers are opening correctly.
Check that the vent pipe is sealed at the dryer's exhaust.
If the unit is on a concrete slab and the above is OK, try the following. Let the floor dry. Get a 1 foot square or so piece of clear plastic (no holes) Tape this down onto the floor where the moisture is the worst. Run the dryer. If the moisture is on top of the plastic it is from the dryer. If it is under the plastic you are pulling moisture up through the slab. |

I guess when i moved it back in the room the duct moved side ways causing a small gap. the exhaust duct must be sticking straight out. check the screw to make sure it tight.
