Reverse: Lakewood → Longmont

Lakewood sits about 38 miles south of Longmont, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a local move.

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 11 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,290 and $1,920, before packing or storage.

On the Longmont side there are 80 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (21 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,122 around Lakewood (405 interstate). For an in-state 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 Lakewood.

Longmont has a population of about 100,109 and Lakewood about 156,927. The two cities have comparable density (3,434 and 3,586 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Longmont to Lakewood?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $690 to $1,030 for a studio, $810 to $1,200 for a one-bedroom, $1,290 to $1,920 for a two-bedroom, $1,990 to $2,960 for a three-bedroom and $2,960 to $4,410 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lakewood from Longmont?

About 38 road miles (33 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 11 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Longmont and Lakewood are in Colorado, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Longmont to Lakewood?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $190 to $270 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,050 to $1,550. 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 Longmont–Lakewood corridor.
