Laramie, WY → Fort Collins, CO · Short-haul move
About 70 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,390–$2,060, delivery in 1–2 days, 8 carriers on the Laramie side and 104 in Fort Collins.
Moving from Laramie to Fort Collins is a short-haul move of roughly 70 road miles, heading southeast from Wyoming to Colorado.
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 1 h 54 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,390 and $2,060, before packing or storage.
On the Laramie side there are 8 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (7 of them authorized for interstate work), and 104 around Fort Collins (46 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 Collins.
Laramie has a population of about 32,000 and Fort Collins about 171,500. Fort Collins is the denser city (2,969 people per square mile versus 1,707 in Laramie), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Colorado is a higher-cost state than Wyoming, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that Colorado does collect a state income tax, unlike Wyoming, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 70 road miles (60 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 54 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 Wyoming into Colorado 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 $220 to $310 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,080 to $1,590. 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 Laramie–Fort Collins corridor.
