For the derived category of bounded complexes of sheaves on a smooth projective surface, Bridgeland and Arcara-Bertram constructed Bridgeland stability conditions $(Z_m , \mathcal{P}_m)$ parametrized by $m \in (0, {+\infty})$. In this paper, we show that the set of mini-walls in $(0, {+\infty})$ of a fixed numerical type is locally finite. In addition, we strengthen a result of Bayer by proving that the moduli of polynomial Bridgeland semistable objects of a fixed numerical type coincides with the moduli of $(Z_m , \mathcal{P}_m)$-semistable objects whenever $m$ is larger than a universal constant depending only on the numerical type. We further identify the moduli of polynomial Bridgeland semistable objects with the Gieseker/Simpson moduli spaces and the Uhlenbeck compactification spaces.
