Grand Junction, CO → Key West, FL · Cross-country move
About 2,188 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,300–$10,860, delivery in 5–10 days, 67 carriers on the Grand Junction side and 7 in Key West.
The route from Grand Junction, CO to Key West, FL covers roughly 2,188 miles by road, a southeast-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 $7,300 to $10,860 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 38 hours (5 driving days).
On the Grand Junction side there are 67 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (30 of them authorized for interstate work), and 7 around Key West (2 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 Key West.
Grand Junction has a population of about 70,000 and Key West about 25,000. Key West is the denser city (4,723 people per square mile versus 1,614 in Grand Junction), 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.

About 2,188 road miles (1,855 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 38 hours (5 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 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,000 to $4,230 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,970 to $4,370. 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 Grand Junction–Key West corridor.
