The route from Scranton, PA to Longmont, CO covers roughly 1,811 miles by road, a west-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 $6,610 to $9,830 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 31 hours (4 driving days).

On the Scranton side there are 264 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (187 of them authorized for interstate work), and 80 around Longmont (21 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 Longmont.

Scranton has a population of about 76,000 and Longmont about 100,109. The two cities have comparable density (3,016 and 3,434 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Colorado is a higher-cost state than Pennsylvania, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,640 to $3,930 for a studio, $3,960 to $5,900 for a one-bedroom, $6,610 to $9,830 for a two-bedroom, $10,570 to $15,730 for a three-bedroom and $14,540 to $21,630 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Longmont from Scranton?

About 1,811 road miles (1,535 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 31 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Pennsylvania 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.

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

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,610 to $3,690 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,640 to $3,880. 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 Scranton–Longmont corridor.
