I have given them written 24 hour notice each time via text message I have shown the apartment.
OK, good. Then you didn't breach anything.

The property is a duplex and we live on site so I know they have not been at home for a week and a half. Neither co-tenant works and they were always home. Do you think a 5 day or a 30 day eviction would be better if they do not vacate?

Wouldn't matter. If your situation is not resolved by a move out and surrender of keys by the last day of this month, you'll be wise to seek possession in accordance with the statute.

Obviously, you CAN do whatever you want, but not without potential consequences if you don't follow the statutes and court procedures.

If I have no way to serve them papers since they are not on the property, then what?

Rules of civil procedure often allow service by publication if service is otherwise impossible. But that generally requires asking for and receiving consent from the court.

I am just extremely worried that they have abandoned and will be stuck with storage fees and a 6 month process.

A very real risk that every landlord takes when he becomes a landlord. Been there.
