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.

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.

Insurance 🔒 Every move includes basic insurance at no extra cost.

Experienced Movers for Philadelphia to Wilmington, NC Moves

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.

Skilled Moving Crews

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.

Flexible Moving Services

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.

Upfront Flat Rates

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. Learn more about our pricing here.

💡 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.

What to Expect in Wilmington, NC

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Moving to Wilmington, NC 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. 

The most affordable time to hire movers is usually from October through March, during the slower moving season. Fewer people move in the fall and winter, which often means lower prices and more open dates. Summer months (May through August) are peak season, so rates tend to rise and schedules fill up quickly. If possible, plan your move mid-month or on a weekday to save even more. 

Your moving budget depends on distance and how much you’re taking with you. Local moves typically range from $400 to $1,500, while long-distance moves can cost between $2,000 and $6,000 or more. The size of your home, the amount of packing help you need, and any large or delicate items—like pianos or antiques—can affect the total. To avoid surprises, ask for a flat-rate estimate from your moving company before booking. 

The kitchen is usually the toughest room to pack. It has many fragile and bulky items, such as dishes, glasses, small appliances, and pantry supplies. These need extra care and the right packing materials to prevent damage. Because it takes more time and organization, it’s smart to start with the kitchen early or let your movers handle it for you.
