Moving from Charleston to Annapolis is a long-distance move of roughly 551 road miles, heading northeast from South Carolina to Maryland.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $3,600 to $5,350 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 10 h 12 min.
On the Charleston side there are 180 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (89 of them authorized for interstate work), and 199 around Annapolis (100 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Annapolis.
Charleston has a population of about 159,423 and Annapolis about 41,000. Annapolis is the denser city (5,664 people per square mile versus 1,309 in Charleston), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Maryland is a higher-cost state than South Carolina, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
