Greeley, CO → Laramie, WY · Short-haul move
About 89 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,480–$2,200, delivery in 1–2 days, 112 carriers on the Greeley side and 8 in Laramie.
Moving from Greeley to Laramie is a short-haul move of roughly 89 road miles, heading northwest from Colorado to Wyoming.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 14 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,480 and $2,200, before packing or storage.
On the Greeley side there are 112 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (61 of them authorized for interstate work), and 8 around Laramie (7 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 Laramie.
Greeley has a population of about 115,073 and Laramie about 32,000. Greeley is considerably denser (2,225 people per square mile versus 1,707), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Wyoming than in Colorado, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Wyoming levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 89 road miles (76 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 14 min.
For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
Yes. Crossing from Colorado into Wyoming 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 $240 to $340 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,100 to $1,620. 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 Greeley–Laramie corridor.
