Durham to Winston-Salem Moving Company Since 1976

Truckin' Movers provides professional long-distance moving services to and from Winston-Salem. With nearly five decades of experience, we handle every detail of your relocation.

Durham to Winston-Salem Moving Company Since 1976

Winston-Salem is about 80 miles west of Durham on I-85 and I-40. In a loaded moving truck, that's around 2 hours. You head west on I-85 past Burlington and Greensboro, then take I-40 West into Forsyth County. It's flat highway the whole way. Same-day delivery is the norm on this route, not the exception.

We've been moving people between Durham and Winston-Salem since the late 1970s. People relocate for Wake Forest University, for the medical center jobs at Atrium Health, for the Innovation Quarter's growing tech scene. The Twin City has its own identity, separate from Greensboro and the rest of the Triad, and we've gotten to know it well over 49 years of running this corridor.

What the Move Looks Like

We load your belongings into a container at your Durham home. Everything goes in once. The truck heads west on I-85/I-40, and we unload at your Winston-Salem address. For a typical 2 or 3-bedroom home, the whole job is done in a single day. Load in the morning, deliver by afternoon. Larger homes with full packing services might take two days, but you'll have exact dates before we start.

If your closings don't line up, we store your sealed container in our climate-controlled facility in Durham County. When your Winston-Salem home is ready, we deliver and unload. No reloading, no warehouse shuffling. Your stuff stays in the same container the whole time.

Winston-Salem Neighborhoods We Know

Ardmore is one of the most popular neighborhoods for Durham transplants. It's Winston-Salem's version of a walkable, historic district with 1920s and 1930s bungalows on tree-lined streets. The homes have character, which also means narrow doorways and older staircases. Our crews know how to work those spaces without damaging the walls or the woodwork.

West End is the historic district close to downtown, with larger homes and mature landscaping. Buena Vista is upscale with big lots and good schools. Washington Park has an artsy feel, smaller homes, and tight street parking that takes some truck planning. Outside the city limits, Clemmons and Lewisville are popular suburban picks with newer construction and easy truck access.

The Triad Corridor

The I-85/I-40 stretch between Durham and Winston-Salem is one of the busiest corridors in North Carolina, and we know every mile of it. The road splits near Greensboro, with I-40 heading west into Forsyth County. Our drivers make this transition regularly and know the traffic patterns at the interchange.
