Furniture & big-item delivery, Charlotte to Durham.

I-85 runs the entire way from Charlotte to Durham without handing you off to another interstate. It's the Triangle run for anyone who'd rather skip Raleigh's traffic altogether.

About 146 miles via I-85. Post your guitar, bike, couch or Marketplace find with a delivery window and it rides along from about $105 (large item, 3-day window, either direction) instead of a mover’s minimum or a carrier’s oversize surcharge.

Launching October 2026. Join the waitlist and you’ll know the moment this route goes live.

What travels Charlotte–Durham

Duke's calendar drives much of this: rooms furnished in August, emptied in May, and downtown's apartment churn in between. Chapel Hill next door adds more of the same, single dressers and sofas going further than a friend's pickup will volunteer for.

The drive itself

Uninterrupted I-85 through the Triad. Slightly shorter than the Raleigh run and it avoids the I-40 merge entirely.

What it’ll cost on this route

Upfront estimates by item size and delivery window, the same price in either direction. No quotes, no haggling. The low end is a flexible 3-day window; the high end is next-day. You pay only once delivery is photo-confirmed.

Small

A chair, a bike, a few boxes

$45–60

by window width

Medium

A dresser, a table, a mini-fridge

$70–90

by window width

Most common

Large

A couch, a mattress, a kayak

$105–135

by window width

Extra large

A sectional, a big appliance

$150–195

by window width

Couch, by window:3-day window ≈ $1052-day window ≈ $1201-day window ≈ $135

For drivers

Driving Charlotte–Durham anyway? A couch here pays you $89–115.

That’s your ~85% of the sender’s price: the low end on a relaxed 3-day window, the high end when they paid for next-day. It lands within two days of drop-off, and founding drivers get first claim on Charlotte–Durham jobs at launch.

How it works

  1. 01

    Snap it, drop two pins

    A photo of your item and the two addresses. No measuring tape, no packaging, no freight forms.

  2. 02

    A driver headed there says yes

    Someone already making this exact drive claims your job. ID-verified, every single time.

  3. 03

    Photo-confirmed, door to door

    Pickup and drop-off are photo-verified with codes. Payment sits in escrow until it arrives.

Your options for a Charlotte–Durham one-item move

Renting a truck

A one-way rental plus fuel both ways plus your whole day. It works. It's just a lot of logistics for one couch.

Full-service movers

Built for whole homes, so single-item jobs hit their minimum charge. Great at what they do; oversized for one dresser.

LTL freight

Means pallets, terminals, and quotes. Fine for a business shipping regularly, a headache for a Marketplace find.

A driver already going there

Someone is driving these 146 miles today regardless. You pay for the space your item takes, about $105 for a couch on a 3-day window.
