The route from Thornton, CO to Prescott, AZ covers roughly 652 miles by road, a southwest-bound trip that falls into the long-distance 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 $3,950 to $5,870 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 11 h 57 min.
On the Thornton side there are 718 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (266 of them authorized for interstate work), and 32 around Prescott (13 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 Prescott.
Thornton has a population of about 147,766 and Prescott about 47,000. Thornton is considerably denser (3,952 people per square mile versus 931), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
