Reverse: Fort Lauderdale → Colorado Springs

Moving from Colorado Springs to Fort Lauderdale is a cross-country move of roughly 1,975 road miles, heading southeast from Colorado to Florida.

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 $6,940 to $10,330 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 34 hours (4 driving days).

On the Colorado Springs side there are 247 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (70 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,841 around Fort Lauderdale (706 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 Fort Lauderdale.

Colorado Springs has a population of about 494,743 and Fort Lauderdale about 188,677. Fort Lauderdale is the denser city (5,282 people per square mile versus 2,451 in Colorado Springs), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Florida levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Colorado Springs to Fort Lauderdale?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,780 to $4,130 for a studio, $4,170 to $6,200 for a one-bedroom, $6,940 to $10,330 for a two-bedroom, $11,110 to $16,530 for a three-bedroom and $15,280 to $22,730 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Fort Lauderdale from Colorado Springs?

About 1,975 road miles (1,674 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 34 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Colorado into Florida 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Colorado Springs to Fort Lauderdale?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,780 to $3,920 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,780 to $4,090. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Colorado Springs–Fort Lauderdale corridor.
