Key West sits about 952 miles south of Durham, which makes this an interstate relocation from North Carolina to Florida that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $4,480 to $6,670 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 17 h 7 min.
On the Durham side there are 338 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (194 of them authorized for interstate work), and 7 around Key West (2 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Key West.
Durham has a population of about 305,561 and Key West about 25,000. Key West is the denser city (4,723 people per square mile versus 2,513 in Durham), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Florida levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.
