Bethlehem, PA → Longmont, CO · Cross-country move
About 1,838 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,650–$9,900, delivery in 5–10 days, 402 carriers on the Bethlehem side and 80 in Longmont.
Moving from Bethlehem to Longmont is a cross-country move of roughly 1,838 road miles, heading west from Pennsylvania 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 $6,650 to $9,900 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 32 hours (4 driving days).
On the Bethlehem side there are 402 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (297 of them authorized for interstate work), and 80 around Longmont (21 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 Longmont.
Bethlehem has a population of about 78,000 and Longmont about 100,109. The two cities have comparable density (3,964 and 3,434 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Colorado is a higher-cost state than Pennsylvania, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 1,838 road miles (1,557 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 32 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Pennsylvania 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 $2,640 to $3,720 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,660 to $3,910. 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 Bethlehem–Longmont corridor.
