The route from Colorado Springs, CO to Salt Lake City, UT covers roughly 475 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the regional long-distance 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 $3,460 to $5,140 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 8 h 53 min.

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 531 around Salt Lake City (306 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 Salt Lake City.

Colorado Springs has a population of about 494,743 and Salt Lake City about 218,428. Colorado Springs is considerably denser (2,451 people per square mile versus 1,811), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Colorado Springs to Salt Lake City?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,380 to $2,060 for a studio, $2,070 to $3,090 for a one-bedroom, $3,460 to $5,140 for a two-bedroom, $5,530 to $8,230 for a three-bedroom and $7,610 to $11,320 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Salt Lake City from Colorado Springs?

About 475 road miles (403 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h 53 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Utah 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 Salt Lake City?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $790 to $1,110 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,440 to $2,120. 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–Salt Lake City corridor.
