Durham NC Movers | Neighborhood-by-Neighborhood Local & Commercial Moving
CJ Moving Services is a Durham-based, licensed and insured moving company. This is our home city, and it shows in every move. We know Durham block by block, from the historic homes of Trinity Park to the new builds near Southpoint and the offices of Research Triangle Park. Whether you're moving a downtown apartment, a full four-bedroom in Hope Valley, or an entire office, our uniformed crews arrive on time, protect your belongings, and price the job clearly before we start.
Moving Near Duke University & Research Triangle Park
A large share of Durham moves are driven by two of the region's biggest employers: Duke University / Duke Health and Research Triangle Park. We coordinate faculty, staff, and healthcare-worker relocations around start dates and shift schedules, and handle office and lab moves for RTP-area businesses with minimal downtime.
Relocating for a Duke or RTP job? We manage both local delivery and, through our licensed long-distance service, out-of-state moves into Durham.
Distance from Durham to Surrounding Triangle Cities

Durham Neighborhoods We Move Every Day
As a local company, we move Durham families and businesses across every part of the city:
- East Durham: historic and revitalizing homes; we handle older houses with care.
- Southpoint / South Durham: larger suburban homes and new construction near The Streets at Southpoint.
- Hope Valley: established, larger full-home moves.
- Duke Forest & the Duke University area: faculty, staff, and student relocations.
- Golden Belt & Downtown Durham: loft and apartment moves in converted mill buildings.
- Trinity Park & Watts-Hillandale: historic homes with narrow doorways and staircases that need padding and planning.
- Brier Creek (Durham/Raleigh line): commuter and suburban moves
Knowing these neighborhoods means we bring the right crew size, truck, and equipment for your home.
