We're not a moving company but we know the best movers
Truckin' Movers Corporation
On October 22, 1976, with $300 and a lot of hope, two college friends launched Truckin’ Movers Corporation. Their goal was to produce higher quality moves for a lot less money. They believed that a local, family-owned and operated full-service moving company would be better suited to providing personalized customer care than the big-name companies which at the time dominated the industry.
Back in the 1970s, the moving industry was heavily regulated by both State and Federal governments. By limiting the number of business licenses issued to movers and enforcing strict territory boundaries, regulations prevented competition in the moving industry and kept the cost of moving artificially high. Pioneering a unique concept in long-distance moving, Truckin’ Movers was able to legally circumvent government regulations.

Truckin’ Movers has called the North Carolina Triangle home since 1976. It is our honor to move your family locally in Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Hillsborough, Pittsboro, Apex, Cary, and their environs.
Our local movers are professionally trained to give your furniture, electronics, and other precious items the ultimate “white glove” service. We treat your belongings with the care and respect they deserve—for the same price as what other moving companies charge for their most basic moving services.
At Truckin’ Movers, your household moves green! Our commitment to a business model that incorporates green technologies and approaches means that moving with a smaller carbon footprint doesn’t have to cost you more. As a locally owned and operated small business, you can also have the peace of mind of knowing that your patronage of Truckin’ Movers supports your local economy.
At Truckin’ Movers, our full-time move consultants are international moving services experts. We can efficiently move any size shipment, anywhere in the world. Since 1976, we’ve helped families with their international relocation to every continent except Antarctica!
We have decades of experience as international packers and movers. We prepare all customs documents needed for your goods to leave the country. Once the shipment has departed the United States, we email you the “ocean bill of lading” and instructions for clearing customs at the destination.
For temporary international moves, we offer a number of storage solutions, from short to long term, including storage in our green-designed storage warehouse.
Moving an office, technology center, or warehouse takes more than a truck and some muscle. Even the simplest commercial move needs to be well organized. Unlike residential movers, no one person knows the contents of every employee of the company. Additionally, medical facilities and high-tech companies have much more expensive property that needs special care when moving.
Truckin’ Movers is proud to be a leader in green storage and moving services. As a triple-bottom-line company, tending not only to profit but also to people and the planet, we believe in taking every step to preserve this beautiful planet we all call home. Since 1976, we have woven green technologies and innovative approaches into our business practices, ensuring that moving and storing green doesn’t cost you more.
Our outstanding reputation is just one of the reasons why UNC, Duke, and NC State moving teachers and other professionals rely on us for everything from local distance move to logistical support and everything in between.
For local moves, the trucks we use are the largest trucks you can get with only two axles. They are like the largest size U-haul truck, only a little longer and taller. For long-distance moves, we use many different sizes of straight trucks and tractor-trailers. Most of the time we use straight trucks and half-sized 28’ long semi-trailers that can get close to most locations. Our goal is to use equipment that can get close enough to your home so that a shuttle-truck, and hence double-handling of your items, is not required.
Yes, most definitely! We make certain the moving crew always has more pads than needed. Proper padding is the key to a damage-free move. We are very thorough with the padding, and the charge for padding material is already included in our moving rates.
Yes, absolutely. Please decide in advance where the furniture will be placed. Our guys are happy to put it exactly where you want, but to keep the move on schedule they only want to put each piece down one time.
Yes, but only when necessary. Please let us know what you need disassembled and reassembled and we will include this service in your move price. There are some set exceptions to this. We recommend that the customer take apart and reassemble any cribs. Items like home gyms, pool tables, and play-sets are best handled by the vendor from whom they were purchased. Also please be aware that our movers only reassemble items that they have disassembled.
It is very rare that rain will actually stop us from completing a move. The crew has cloth pads, and will keep the furniture covered and carpets protected. This allows us to continue moving in moderate to light rain.In a hard downpour the crew will try to take a lunch break until the rain slows down or stops. If the crew must wait on the job site for the rain to lighten up, that wait time is charged at 1/2 the hourly rate -- we only need to cover the cost of the movers during this time.
