Planning a Move from Philadelphia to Wilmington, NC? WellKnown Moving Company is ready to help you start this next step. With teams based in both Philadelphia and North Carolina, we handle long-distance moves at a clear, flat rate—no hidden fees. Our trained movers organize every detail, so you can relax and focus on your new home. We’re fully licensed by the FMCSA and have plenty of positive reviews from customers who’ve made the same move. Most trips from Philadelphia to Wilmington take about two to three days, depending on your schedule. Whether you’re moving downtown, to Riverlights, or a nearby neighborhood, we’ll help you get there smoothly.
Insurance 🔒 Every move includes basic insurance at no extra cost.
We know the route from Philadelphia to Wilmington well, including major highways like I-95 and I-40. Our team plans around traffic and local restrictions to make sure everything runs on time. We’re familiar with both cities—from Philadelphia’s historic neighborhoods to Wilmington’s coastal communities. If your new building needs a Certificate of Insurance (COI) or has special parking or elevator requirements, we’ll handle it. We also move customers to nearby areas such as Leland, Carolina Beach, and Hampstead.
Each move includes a crew leader with at least three years of long-distance experience. All movers are trained, background-checked, and equipped to handle large, fragile, or heavy items safely. Our trucks are fully stocked with protective gear to keep your belongings secure from start to finish.
Before moving day, we’ll contact you to confirm what you’re bringing, what needs packing, and any special requests for transport or storage. Based on that, we’ll assign the right team and equipment. You can also choose additional options—such as furniture-only moving or using a shared truck to reduce costs.
We offer a fixed price for the entire move. Minor details—like a few extra stairs or a short distance change—won’t affect your total. Only oversized or unusually heavy items (such as large appliances or pianos) might cost a bit more. A small deposit secures your date, and if you cancel at least two weeks ahead, we’ll refund it.

💡 Moving Tip: In Wilmington, check with your building or neighborhood management about parking or loading zones before moving day—it can help the move go faster.
Wilmington offers a coastal lifestyle with plenty to enjoy—beaches, parks, and a growing job market in education, healthcare, and film production. Explore the Riverwalk downtown, visit Wrightsville Beach, or take a weekend trip to Carolina Beach State Park.
The city has a relaxed pace, with shorter commutes than larger metro areas. Summers are warm, but ocean breezes keep things comfortable. Compared to Philadelphia, housing tends to be more affordable, and neighborhoods like Masonboro, Ogden, and Monkey Junction offer a mix of comfort and convenience.
