Bellevue, WA → Centennial, CO · Long-distance move
About 1,208 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,730–$8,520, delivery in 3–7 days, 694 carriers on the Bellevue side and 826 in Centennial.
Moving from Bellevue to Centennial is a long-distance move of roughly 1,208 road miles, heading southeast from Washington to Colorado.
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 $5,730 to $8,520 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 21 h 32 min.
On the Bellevue side there are 694 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (279 of them authorized for interstate work), and 826 around Centennial (318 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 Centennial.
Bellevue has a population of about 154,193 and Centennial about 108,658. The two cities have comparable density (4,533 and 3,650 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Colorado does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,208 road miles (1,024 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 32 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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.
Yes. Crossing from Washington into Colorado makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,690 to $2,390 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,100 to $3,090. 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 Bellevue–Centennial corridor.
