Cheyenne, WY → Danbury, CT · Cross-country move
About 1,909 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,830–$10,170, delivery in 5–10 days, 31 carriers on the Cheyenne side and 135 in Danbury.
The route from Cheyenne, WY to Danbury, CT covers roughly 1,909 miles by road, a east-bound trip that falls into the cross-country move category for pricing purposes.
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 $6,830 to $10,170 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 33 hours (4 driving days).
On the Cheyenne side there are 31 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (23 of them authorized for interstate work), and 135 around Danbury (97 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 Danbury.
Cheyenne has a population of about 66,000 and Danbury about 87,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,792 and 2,059 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Connecticut is a higher-cost state than Wyoming, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that Connecticut does collect a state income tax, unlike Wyoming, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,909 road miles (1,617 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 33 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Wyoming into Connecticut 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 $2,710 to $3,830 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,720 to $4,010. 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 Cheyenne–Danbury corridor.
