Boulder, CO → Colorado Springs, CO · Short-haul move
About 99 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,600–$2,380, delivery in 1–2 days, 120 carriers on the Boulder side and 247 in Colorado Springs.
Colorado Springs sits about 99 miles south of Boulder, 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 24 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,600 and $2,380, before packing or storage.
On the Boulder side there are 120 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (30 of them authorized for interstate work), and 247 around Colorado Springs (70 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 Colorado Springs.
Boulder has a population of about 105,689 and Colorado Springs about 494,743. Boulder is considerably denser (4,116 people per square mile versus 2,451), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $920 to $1,380 for a studio, $1,040 to $1,550 for a one-bedroom, $1,600 to $2,380 for a two-bedroom, $2,380 to $3,550 for a three-bedroom and $3,440 to $5,120 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.
About 99 road miles (84 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 24 min.
For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
No. Because both Boulder and Colorado Springs 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 $250 to $350 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,110 to $1,630. 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 Boulder–Colorado Springs corridor.
