Reverse: Portland → Hampton

The route from Hampton, VA to Portland, ME covers roughly 657 miles by road, a northeast-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $3,900 to $5,810 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 12 h 2 min.

On the Hampton side there are 157 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (88 of them authorized for interstate work), and 113 around Portland (63 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 Portland.

Hampton has a population of about 137,315 and Portland about 69,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,663 and 3,176 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Hampton to Portland?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,560 to $2,320 for a studio, $2,340 to $3,480 for a one-bedroom, $3,900 to $5,810 for a two-bedroom, $6,250 to $9,290 for a three-bedroom and $8,590 to $12,780 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Portland from Hampton?

About 657 road miles (557 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 12 h 2 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 Virginia into Maine 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 Hampton to Portland?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $970 to $1,380 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,610 to $2,360. 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 Hampton–Portland corridor.
