Portsmouth sits about 599 miles northeast of Hampton, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to New Hampshire that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $3,860 to $5,750 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 11 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 51 around Portsmouth (38 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 Portsmouth.
Hampton has a population of about 137,315 and Portsmouth about 23,000. Hampton is considerably denser (2,663 people per square mile versus 1,402), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. New Hampshire levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.
