Aurora, CO → Pueblo, CO · Short-haul move
About 117 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,160–$3,210, delivery in 1–2 days, 1,183 carriers on the Aurora side and 44 in Pueblo.
Pueblo sits about 117 miles south of Aurora, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a short-haul move.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 43 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $2,160 and $3,210, before packing or storage.
On the Aurora side there are 1,183 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (464 of them authorized for interstate work), and 44 around Pueblo (20 interstate). For an in-state 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 Pueblo.
Aurora has a population of about 410,053 and Pueblo about 110,404. The two cities have comparable density (2,413 and 2,019 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 117 road miles (99 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 43 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
No. Because both Aurora and Pueblo are in Colorado, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $270 to $380 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,120 to $1,650. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Aurora–Pueblo corridor.
