Estimated cost by home size
Straight-line distance is about 64 miles; the driving route will be longer. Ranges come from the same calibrated model behind our interactive moving cost calculator, interpolated for this distance. How the model works is documented on the calculator methodology page.
| Home size | Professional movers | Moving container | Freight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | $400.00 – $850.00 | $250.00 – $375.00 | $200.00 – $300.00 |
| 1 bedroom | $525.00 – $1,075.00 | $325.00 – $450.00 | $250.00 – $375.00 |
| 2 bedrooms | $825.00 – $1,700.00 | $500.00 – $725.00 | $400.00 – $600.00 |
| 3 bedrooms | $1,150.00 – $2,400.00 | $700.00 – $1,025.00 | $575.00 – $850.00 |
| 4 bedrooms | $1,575.00 – $3,350.00 | $950.00 – $1,450.00 | $775.00 – $1,175.00 |
Estimates for planning, not quotes. A 5+ bedroom home starts from the 4-bedroom range and runs higher. With professional movers the crew loads and drives; with a container or freight, you load and they drive.
How much does it cost to move from Colorado Springs to Denver?
Moving a 2-bedroom home from Colorado Springs to Denver costs about $825 to $1,700 with full-service movers, or $500 to $725 if you load a moving container yourself. The cities sit about 64 straight-line miles apart, which prices as a local move. A studio starts near $400, while a 4-bedroom home can reach $3,350.
Is moving from Colorado Springs to Denver an interstate move?
No. Both cities are in Colorado, so the move is intrastate and falls under Colorado's own rules for movers rather than the federal rules for interstate carriers; check how the state licenses movers before you book. Under 100 miles, crews bill by the hour rather than by weight and distance, so packing before they arrive saves real money.
What a Colorado Springs to Denver move costs and why
At roughly 64 miles, Colorado Springs to Denver is priced as a local move, and local moves follow different rules from everything else in the table above. Instead of weighing your belongings, movers bill by the hour per crew member, so the real question is how many hours the job takes. A well-packed apartment where every box is sealed and labelled before the crew arrives loads dramatically faster than one where packing finishes while the truck waits. Elevator access, parking distance, and flights of stairs all add hours, and hours are the whole bill. The distance itself barely matters at this range; two able movers can drive it and still finish the same day.
Movers, container, or freight on this route
The three tiers in the table are three answers to who does the loading and who does the driving. With full-service movers at $825 to $1,700 for a 2-bedroom home, the crew does both. A container at $500 to $725 means you load and unload while the company drives, and freight at $400 to $600 is the same trade at a bigger scale with a commercial trailer.
On this route the container option keeps roughly $325 to $975 in your pocket against full service, which is the honest market price of loading a home yourself. Whether that trade makes sense depends on the sofa, the stairs, and who you can bribe with pizza. If the answer is nobody, the full-service premium is buying something real.
Bringing the number down
Weight is the lever you control. The gap between a 2-bedroom and a 1-bedroom shipment on this route is $300 to $625, which is what decluttering before the move is actually worth in cash. Selling or donating the furniture you were lukewarm about anyway, and not paying to ship boxes you will not open, moves the bill from one row of the table toward the one above it.
Timing still moves the price at this range, just through the hourly rate. Mid-week, mid-month dates book cheaper crews than the month-end weekends when every lease in the city turns over, and an off-season date helps further. Being genuinely packed before the crew arrives is worth more than any calendar trick, because on a local move you are paying for every minute.
Beyond the transport itself, budget for the costs that never appear in a quote: packing supplies, deposits overlapping between two homes, access fees for stairs or long carries, and the first restock at the destination. Our guide to the moving costs nobody budgets for itemises them, and this comparison of movers, containers, and truck rentals covers the service choice in more depth.

Frequently asked questions
For a 2-bedroom home, $825 to $1,700 with professional movers, $500 to $725 with a moving container, or $400 to $600 with freight. A studio starts around $400 to $850 and a 4-bedroom home runs $1,575 to $3,350. These are planning ranges from our calibrated model, not quotes.
About 64 miles in a straight line between the two city centers, which is the basis our cost model is calibrated on. The driving route is longer, and this corridor prices as a local move.
Yes, if you do the loading. On this route a container saves roughly $325 to $975 against full-service movers for a 2-bedroom home. The trade is your own labor at both ends and usually a few extra days in transit.
Around $1,150 to $2,400 with professional movers. Packing services, storage between dates, stairs, and peak-season dates are not in that range and commonly add 20 to 50 percent, so treat it as the base price of the move itself.
