I cannot recommend WellKnown enough. The team arrived EARLY, packed quickly, and graciously moved all of my things into my new 5th floor walkup without a single complaint.

If you’re moving from Philadelphia to Wilmington, WellKnown Moving Company can help. We have teams based in both cities and offer long-distance moving at a flat rate with no hidden fees. From start to finish, our trained movers handle everything to make sure your items arrive safely and on schedule.

We are certified by the FMCSA, so we’re approved for both home and business moves. Many of our customers leave positive reviews about our work. Whether you're moving to downtown Wilmington, Trolley Square, or a quiet neighborhood like Greenville, we’ll take care of it for a fair price.

Insurance Included – No Extra Charge

All moves include basic insurance at no extra cost. Your items will be covered during the move.

Experienced Movers from Philadelphia to Wilmington

Our team leaders have at least three years of experience with long-distance moving. Every team member is trained and goes through a background check. We use proper equipment and safe packing methods to move everything, including large or delicate items like pianos or safes.

We Know the Philadelphia–Wilmington Route

We often travel on I-95 and are familiar with both cities. We understand the process for getting permits in Center City Philadelphia and how to deal with building access in Wilmington. We can also provide Certificates of Insurance (COIs) if a building asks for one.

Moving Services That Match Your Plans

Before moving day, we’ll go over the details with you—how much you’re moving, whether you need help with packing, overnight storage and if there are any special needs. We’ll send the right number of movers and bring the equipment required. If you only need to move a few pieces of furniture, want to share a truck to save money, or need short-term storage, we offer those services too.

Flat-Rate Pricing with No Surprises

We charge one fixed price, which won’t change even if there are stairs or small changes in the route. Only extra-large items, like pianos or industrial machines, may cost more. You’ll place a deposit to reserve your moving date, and you can get a full refund if you cancel at least two weeks in advance. Learn more about pricing.

Tip: Wilmington is less crowded than Philadelphia, but it’s still a good idea to arrange parking early—especially near downtown or apartment buildings.

Thinking About Living in Wilmington, DE?

Wilmington is a smaller city and more affordable than many nearby places. It’s close to major cities on the East Coast and has more job options now than before. You’ll find a mix of old neighborhoods and newer areas with shops and restaurants. Some popular places are the Delaware Art Museum, Riverfront Market, and Brandywine Park.

Many banks, law firms, and large employers are based in Wilmington because of Delaware’s business rules. Companies like JPMorgan Chase, Capital One, AstraZeneca, and ChristianaCare offer jobs in different areas.

Wilmington also has good train and bus service through Amtrak and SEPTA, which makes it easy to get to Philadelphia, New York, or Washington, D.C. With lower taxes and quieter streets than Philly, it’s a good place for families, young professionals, and retirees.

Plan and Customize Your Move

We develop a customized long-distance moving plan and determine the timing of the move. At this stage you need to decide whether you are doing the packing yourself or using our professional packing service. If you need additional services or special pricing, we'll find out during the call.

Loading and Transportation

On the appointed day and time, we arrive at the location in Philadelphia. If a packing service has been arranged, we carry out the packing on the same day or a day or several days in advance of the move. We load all the things into the truck, wrapping and disassembling the furniture beforehand. The presence of the customer during this process is highly desirable.

Arrange On-Time Delivery & Unpacking

Then we move straight to the final location in Wilmington, DE or make a stop at the storage, if this service has been purchased. We carefully unload all your belongings, leave them in the pre-agreed locations and collect the furniture. If arranged, we help unpack all items.

Post-Move Support

Afterward, we are available to provide counseling and help with any questions you may have after the move. If you find your belongings missing or damaged, please contact us as soon as possible. We will solve everything!

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Moving to Wilmington with us ensures that your moving plan includes all the essential costs required by the movers. There's no need to worry about separate charges for the truck, tools, furniture assembly or disassembly, or even moving heavy items – it's all covered. We also offer flexibility with additional services: you can supply your own packing materials, or we can provide them. Plus, if you prefer, we can handle packing for specific items only. Visit our pricing page to learn more! 

Make a list of special items (or just memorize them) that movers need to pay attention to. First of all, these are heavy items (e.g. a piano, a bed, a big dresser). We need to know at least the approximate dimensions and weight. In the second place are fragile and valuable items, antiques, paintings, TV set, etc. This will help us to be better prepared. We also recommend that you clearly define whether you need additional services. If you are not sure yet, we will be happy to advise you. 

Movers usually cost less on weekdays, especially from Monday to Thursday. Since many people move on weekends or at the start or end of the month, picking a weekday in the middle of the month can help you get a better price because there’s less demand. 

The best place to live in Delaware depends on what matters most to you. Wilmington is a solid choice if you’re looking for job opportunities, public transport, and city life. Newark, where the University of Delaware is located, is a favorite for families and young adults who want a mix of school, work, and community. If you’re looking for a quieter place with newer homes and strong schools, Middletown could be a good match. And if you like the beach and a slower pace, towns like Rehoboth Beach and Lewes are popular, especially with retirees. 

If the movers didn’t do a good job, not tipping isn’t seen as rude. But if they worked hard and handled your things with care, tipping is a common way to say thanks. It’s not something you have to do, but many people give cash at the end of the move to show appreciation, especially if the movers were on time, careful, and worked through any problems.
