Timing Your Edgemoor Move
Edgemoor sits just outside Wilmington, so pricing tracks the greater New Castle County market: local crews average about $150 an hour for two to three movers, and a full local move typically runs $561 to $4,961 depending on home size, with a two-hour minimum on nearly every job.
When You Book Matters
Moving during peak season, roughly late spring through summer, or at the start or end of a month, adds a 20 to 30 percent premium to the hourly rate. A mid-week, mid-month date is the cheapest window if your schedule is flexible.
A Few Local Details
Older residential streets and tight apartment complexes here can mean a long-carry or shuttle fee if a large truck can't park close to your door, so mention any tight access when you book. Delaware also charges no state sales tax on the invoice, though tipping is still customary, generally $4 to $6 per mover per hour or a flat $20 to $50 per person.
Give a thorough inventory rather than a rough phone estimate: a binding quote locks your price, while a non-binding one can legally increase if you end up with more than you described. Basic liability coverage is also capped by law at $0.60 per pound per item, so ask about Full Value Protection for anything valuable.
Once you know the timing angle, checking it against what the movers below actually quote is the next step.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts New Castle County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 36% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
