Research Triangle Relocation and Tech Workforce Pet Transportation

Researchers and engineers moving from Boston, San Francisco, or Washington DC to the Triangle (or departing for similar hubs) book GoGoPets to avoid the breed restrictions and cargo weather holds at Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

NC State University and Duke University medical centers add a graduate-student and postdoctoral layer to the relocation market. May and August are peak months. Moves to the Northeast (Philadelphia, New York, Boston) and to West Coast tech hubs (San Francisco, Seattle) are the most common long-distance bookings from Raleigh.
