Covering all areas of Durham
Durham is a historic cathedral city with a mix of student accommodation near the university, Victorian terraces in the inner areas, and family housing in the surrounding suburbs and villages. Whether you’re moving into or out of shared housing near Durham University, relocating from an established family home in Framwellgate Moor or Gilesgate, or downsizing to a smaller property, we help you find local drivers who know the area and can assist with your move.
We cover all types of moves across Durham and the nearby villages. If you need a full house move, help clearing a flat at the end of a student tenancy, assistance shifting furniture between properties, or someone to deliver appliances, we connect you to drivers with the right van for the job. Moves here range from compact student lets to larger family homes in areas like Nevilles Cross and Shincliffe, with drivers experienced in navigating the city’s historic streets.
We also cover nearby areas including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, County Durham, Darlington, and Gateshead. Durham’s position on the A1(M) and East Coast Main Line makes it well connected for moves across the North East. Local drivers regularly help with relocations around the city centre, Durham University colleges, and the retail areas near the Arnison Centre in Pity Me. The narrow streets around the Market Place and North Road see regular moving activity, while residential areas like Carrville, Belmont, and Bowburn have steady demand. The student calendar creates busy periods in September and June, but family moves happen throughout the year in the established suburbs.
The wider North East region is easy to reach from Durham. Drivers based here regularly help with moves across County Durham and into neighbouring areas like Tyneside and Teesside, whether you’re heading to a nearby city or relocating further afield. We make it simple to compare available drivers, choose the right van size, and find someone who suits your specific requirements.
