Port Angeles, WA → Aurora, CO · Long-distance move
About 1,291 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,960–$8,870, delivery in 3–7 days, 11 carriers on the Port Angeles side and 1,183 in Aurora.
Aurora sits about 1,291 miles southeast of Port Angeles, which makes this an interstate relocation from Washington to Colorado that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $5,960 to $8,870 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 22 h 58 min.
On the Port Angeles side there are 11 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,183 around Aurora (464 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 Aurora.
Port Angeles has a population of about 20,000 and Aurora about 410,053. The two cities have comparable density (1,864 and 2,413 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Colorado does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,291 road miles (1,094 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 22 h 58 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Washington 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 $1,780 to $2,510 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,170 to $3,190. 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 Port Angeles–Aurora corridor.
