Centennial, CO → Kent, WA · Long-distance move
About 1,203 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,720–$8,500, delivery in 3–7 days, 826 carriers on the Centennial side and 646 in Kent.
Kent sits about 1,203 miles northwest of Centennial, which makes this an interstate relocation from Colorado to Washington 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 $5,720 to $8,500 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 27 min.
On the Centennial side there are 826 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (318 of them authorized for interstate work), and 646 around Kent (317 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 Kent.
Centennial has a population of about 108,658 and Kent about 134,871. The two cities have comparable density (3,650 and 4,041 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 1,203 road miles (1,020 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 27 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 Colorado into Washington 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 $2,380 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,090 to $3,080. 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 Centennial–Kent corridor.
