Frequently asked questions

How much do movers cost in Colorado?

Local movers in Colorado typically charge $140 to $240 per hour depending on crew size. A two-bedroom local move usually totals $1,150 to $1,720; a 1,000-mile interstate move of the same home runs $4,990 to $7,430.

Which Colorado cities have the most moving companies?

On this platform Denver (1,411), Aurora (1,183), Lakewood (1,122), Centennial (826), Thornton (718) lead the state by number of FMCSA-registered household-goods carriers.

Do I need a licensed mover for a move within Colorado?

Moves that stay inside Colorado are regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Most states require intrastate movers to hold a state permit or registration in addition to a USDOT number; the company cards on each city page show the USDOT number so you can verify it.
