Centennial, CO → Surprise, AZ · Long-distance move
About 692 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,050–$6,030, delivery in 2–5 days, 826 carriers on the Centennial side and 435 in Surprise.
Moving from Centennial to Surprise is a long-distance move of roughly 692 road miles, heading southwest from Colorado to Arizona.
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 $4,050 to $6,030 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 12 h 38 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 435 around Surprise (213 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 Surprise.
Centennial has a population of about 108,658 and Surprise about 175,304. Centennial is considerably denser (3,650 people per square mile versus 1,298), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 692 road miles (586 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 12 h 38 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 Colorado into Arizona 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 $1,010 to $1,430 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,640 to $2,410. 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–Surprise corridor.
