Reverse: Wilmington → Concord

Moving from Concord to Wilmington is a long-distance move of roughly 838 road miles, heading southwest from New Hampshire to North Carolina.

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 $4,330 to $6,440 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 15 h 9 min.

On the Concord side there are 52 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (40 of them authorized for interstate work), and 93 around Wilmington (53 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 Wilmington.

Concord has a population of about 45,000 and Wilmington about 126,809. Wilmington is the denser city (2,246 people per square mile versus 688 in Concord), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in North Carolina than in New Hampshire, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that North Carolina does collect a state income tax, unlike New Hampshire, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Concord to Wilmington?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,730 to $2,570 for a studio, $2,600 to $3,860 for a one-bedroom, $4,330 to $6,440 for a two-bedroom, $6,920 to $10,300 for a three-bedroom and $9,520 to $14,160 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Wilmington from Concord?

About 838 road miles (710 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 9 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from New Hampshire into North Carolina makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Concord to Wilmington?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,160 to $1,640 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,770 to $2,600. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Concord–Wilmington corridor.
