Bismarck, ND → Pueblo, CO · Long-distance move
About 734 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,080–$6,070, delivery in 2–5 days, 42 carriers on the Bismarck side and 44 in Pueblo.
Pueblo sits about 734 miles south of Bismarck, which makes this an interstate relocation from North Dakota to Colorado that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $4,080 to $6,070 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 13 h 21 min.
On the Bismarck side there are 42 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (32 of them authorized for interstate work), and 44 around Pueblo (20 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 Pueblo.
Bismarck has a population of about 76,000 and Pueblo about 110,404. The two cities have comparable density (2,123 and 2,019 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Colorado is a higher-cost state than North Dakota, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 734 road miles (622 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 13 h 21 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 North Dakota 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 $1,050 to $1,490 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,680 to $2,460. 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 Bismarck–Pueblo corridor.
