Moving from Wilmington to Philadelphia is a local move of roughly 33 road miles, heading northeast from Delaware to Pennsylvania.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 1 h 2 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,190 and $1,760, before packing or storage.
On the Wilmington side there are 315 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (214 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,658 around Philadelphia (1,138 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 Philadelphia.
Wilmington has a population of about 71,000 and Philadelphia about 1.6 million. Philadelphia is the denser city (11,933 people per square mile versus 6,507 in Wilmington), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
