Centennial, CO → Monroe, LA · Long-distance move
About 1,020 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,700–$6,990, delivery in 3–7 days, 826 carriers on the Centennial side and 49 in Monroe.
Moving from Centennial to Monroe is a long-distance move of roughly 1,020 road miles, heading southeast from Colorado to Louisiana.
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 $4,700 to $6,990 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 18 h 17 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 49 around Monroe (26 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 Monroe.
Centennial has a population of about 108,658 and Monroe about 46,000. Centennial is considerably denser (3,650 people per square mile versus 1,604), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Louisiana than in Colorado, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,020 road miles (864 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 18 h 17 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 Louisiana 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 $1,500 to $2,110 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,930 to $2,840. 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–Monroe corridor.
