Reverse: Portsmouth → Palm Coast

Moving from Palm Coast to Portsmouth is a long-distance move of roughly 1,297 road miles, heading northeast from Florida to New Hampshire.

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 $5,630 to $8,370 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 23 h 4 min.

On the Palm Coast side there are 66 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (28 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.

Palm Coast has a population of about 109,886 and Portsmouth about 23,000. Portsmouth is the denser city (1,402 people per square mile versus 936 in Palm Coast), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Verify the carrier's USDOT and MC numbers on the FMCSA site before paying a deposit.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Palm Coast to Portsmouth?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,250 to $3,350 for a studio, $3,380 to $5,020 for a one-bedroom, $5,630 to $8,370 for a two-bedroom, $9,000 to $13,400 for a three-bedroom and $12,380 to $18,420 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Portsmouth from Palm Coast?

About 1,297 road miles (1,099 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 23 h 4 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Florida into New Hampshire 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 Palm Coast to Portsmouth?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,780 to $2,520 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,180 to $3,200. 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 Palm Coast–Portsmouth corridor.
