Carrboro Moving Company Since 1976

Truckin' Movers has served Carrboro and the surrounding Orange County since 1976. Local moves, long-distance, interstate. Our crews have been doing this for over a decade on average.

Carrboro, NC Moving Company Since 1976

Carrboro is a small town with big personality, and moving here takes a mover who gets that. Truckin' Movers has been moving families in and around Carrboro since 1976. We know the tight turns on Jones Ferry Road, the parking headaches near Weaver Street Market, and the walkup apartments off Main Street where the stairwells are narrower than they look. We've carried bookcases out of old mill houses and couches into second-floor units at Carrboro Commons. After 49 years in the Triangle, there's not much we haven't seen.

Our office is in Durham, about 15 minutes east. When you call, you talk to people who live and work in this area. We'll walk through your move on the phone or in person, give you a real number, and show up on the day we said we would.

Every Kind of Move in Carrboro

We handle everything that comes through Carrboro:

  • Residential Moves: Houses, apartments, condos, duplexes. A local Carrboro move or a cross-country relocation. We do both.
  • Commercial Moves: Office and business moves along Main Street and East Main. Small businesses are the backbone of Carrboro, and we handle their moves with care.
  • Specialty Moves: Pianos, artwork, antiques, pottery wheels. If it's fragile or heavy, our specialty crew knows how to handle it.
  • Storage: Climate-controlled, secure, and flexible. Your container stays sealed until you're ready.

Moving to Carrboro from Out of State

People move to Carrboro for its walkability, its food co-op, its farmers market, and its proximity to UNC. Our long-distance moving services bring folks in from New York, DC, Boston, the Bay Area, and everywhere in between. We give you an exact delivery date, not a window.

Newcomers should know a few things. Parking in downtown Carrboro is limited, and some residential streets are too narrow for a large moving truck. We plan for that. We'll use the right size vehicle, coordinate with your landlord or property manager, and schedule around the busiest times. If you're moving in during August or May, expect UNC traffic. We'll work around it.

Why Carrboro Residents Trust Truckin' Movers

Our crew members aren't temps. They're career movers with over a decade of experience on average. They know how to protect original hardwood floors in a 1920s bungalow, how to angle a dresser through a narrow doorway in a Winmore townhome, and how to keep things moving when the parking situation gets complicated. Moving is stressful. We take the edge off by showing up prepared, handling your belongings with care, and finishing the job on time.
