Our California to Colorado Moving Services

Whether you're relocating a one-bedroom apartment or a full family home, we handle every part of your move from California to Colorado, not just the drive between the two.

  • Residential Moves to Colorado

    We move households from across California to destinations throughout Colorado, including Denver, Colorado Springs, Boulder, and Fort Collins. We quote every move based on your actual inventory, the distance between your addresses, and the services you choose, with everything explained before you commit.

  • Commercial and Office Relocations to Colorado

    Businesses relocating operations, opening a Colorado location, or consolidating offices across state lines work with the same crew and coordinator from pickup through delivery. We plan around your operating hours and minimize downtime on both ends.

  • Packing Services — Full, Partial, or Fragile-Items-Only

    Our crew can pack your entire household, handle only fragile and high-value items, or anything in between. We bring all the necessary materials - double-wall boxes, specialty dish kits, wardrobe cartons, stretch film, and packing paper - then size the crew to match the scope of your move.

  • Full Unpacking — A Service Most Long-Distance Movers Don't Offer

    Most long-distance moving companies deliver your boxes to the driveway and consider the job finished, but we don't stop there.

    If you add unpacking, the same crew that packed and delivered your belongings unpacks every box, places items approximately where you want them, room by room, and removes all packing materials before leaving. For clients relocating across state lines with young children, demanding jobs, or limited time to spend living out of boxes, having everything unpacked can make the difference between simply arriving in Colorado and actually settling into your new home.

  • Senior Relocations to Colorado

    We regularly help older adults relocate to Colorado to be closer to family or to downsize into a smaller home. These moves call for patience and a crew that understands the move is about a life transition, not a delivery. Full unpacking is especially valued here - our team places your belongings where you want them and clears every box, so you’re not left setting up your new home on your own.

  • Furniture Disassembly, Protection, and Reassembly

    We disassemble and wrap bed frames, sectional sofas, dining tables, and modular shelving. We then reassemble these items at your new address. Hardware is bagged by item and taped in place so nothing is missing when the crew reassembles your furniture in Colorado.

  • Long-Distance Moves with Storage

    If your Colorado home isn't ready when you’re moving out of California, or you need more time to decide what you’re taking with you, we can coordinate storage on either end. Ask about short-term and long-term options when you request your estimate.

  • Adrienne Wilson

    Artemis and Dennis arrived promptly (and actually asked my permission if I was available earlier than our pre-scheduled time- I happened to be) They walked through first and asked my preferences first. They moved everything (two heavy reclining sofas, bunk beds, coffee table, futon, and other miscellaneous items) efficiently, safely, from my storage unit to my new, quaint apartment. They assembled the bunk beds. And took the quoted time (worked very fast AND it was hot AND the elevator closest to my storage unit was broken so longer walk out for them) Thank you guys! Definitely recommend!

  • Tyler Ruffino

    I loathe moving. I would prefer to just throw away 90% of my belongings and move with a backpack and one box. Best California Movers changed that. The entire process from booking to moving to paying was so easy and our movers Manu and Tim were awesome. On time, communicative, and no nonsense, all of our stuff was moved with care and without any time wasted. Unpacking boxes you would think they never moved at all, everything was exactly as packed. If you are looking for a moving company you can trust, Best California Movers is worth checking out.

  • Debbie K.

    This was an excellent experience. They took such care with every piece of furniture. You know that rare find when someone goes above and beyond, not because they are being watched, but because they just do excellent work even when no one is watching. That is what it is like to move with Best California Movers.

  • James Kim

    Art and his crew did an amazing job with our move! They were professional, efficient, and hardworking throughout the entire process. They handled our furniture and belongings with care and worked quickly without sacrificing quality. The whole team was friendly, organized, and made what could have been a stressful moving day go smoothly. I really appreciate their hard work and would highly recommend Art and his crew to anyone looking for reliable movers!

  • Renee Fulbright

    We have moved 5 times in the past 6 years and this one by far was the easiest and smoothest because of Nigel and his crew! They were on time, worked fast and nothing broke during transport. Also, best prices around. Highly recommend this team for your next move!!!!

  • Celeste R

    So glad I followed an online recommendation! These movers were prompt, professional, kind, and took excellent care with my items. The company's communication with me was outstanding - confirming with me, and allowing me flexibility when I needed it. I will absolutely recommend them to any friends who need movers.

  • Jardel Garcia

    Arthur and Rostovan did our move and did a great job! They were efficient and gentle with our furniture and belongings. I highly recommended them!

  • Justin Edwards

    Artemis and his crew came through and got the job done extremely fast and thorough. This is the second time I've used BCM and have had a great experience both times. Keep up the great work.

  • David C.

    Sam and Victor helped me with my belongings. Everything was very easy and stress free. And price was reasonable. Great moving company. Very professionals.

  • Abai P

    This was an amazing move. The guys were professional efficient, and very diligent. They did an amazing job. I can express how happy I am with this move.

  • Sam S.

    Sam and Andy, we're so helpful in moving everything I needed and did it quickly and efficiently with the utmost professionalism. I would definitely recommend using them for your upcoming move. Very affordable and willing to work with you based on your needs.

  • Arjuna C

    Dmitrii Parii, ***** *****, and their teams provided exceptional service for our 2 bedroom full service local move in ******. To be *****, I was weary of being baited by the *** algorithm and how it handles a company called Best California Movers. One might also be lead to believe they have a suspicious amount of positive reviews. And Im relieved to say I would wager they actually deserve the name. Quoting and Booking:***** *****, with follow up from his colleagues ***** and ********, made it easy to get a quote, have all my questions answered, and finally sign to book with confidence. I had several rounds of questions from initial contact to agreement review and they gave quick and detailed information, such as the cost of materials and boxes, liability for any building damage, and estimation of how long the job would take. Other companies I requested quotes for recommended 2 or 3 crew, but ***** recommended 4 off rip for a speedier move and it turned out to be a great fit for our 2 bedroom local move. The Move: Dmitrii Parii and his team did a remarkable job. Although we moved from a 2BR apartment, we actually have quite a lot of stuff from previously moving from a 3 story house. Weve hired other movers before and Dmitriis team moved the same amount in roughly half the time, and that included disassembly and reassembly of some of our key furniture such as our bed and two standing desks with mounted monitors. His team arrived within the estimated time, worked efficiently even though I offered them snacks and to take a lunch break, and handled all of our belongings carefully. He also came prepared with many tools for disassembly and reassembly. To be honest, I expected this job to take 9-10 hours based on our previous movers and they did it in 7. I also had a fair amount of questions for Dmitrii, including with regard to the final invoice, and he was a great sport about answering all of them.

  • Lauren Glass

    I was shocked how kind and supportive they were with my move! Very delicate with my stuff, not overly rushed and very efficient. Super considerate about my important items and where I ultimately wanted everything to go. Will be saving their contact for any future moves. Highly, highly recommending to my friends and family! Nigel and Sula were the best

  • Jessica ..

    Sam and Mike were amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure everything went smooth and how we were hoping. Definitely would recommend! They moved all our furniture on our big move and helped with our large TV. Great value too for how much they did.

  • Mary Martin

    abdul, Salim and more wonderful timely and experienced I would recommend them. I've used them once before which is why I came back and I will always use them for my moving needs. I can't say enough of how wonderful these people are.

  • Yisrayl Ben Yah

    Movies were there early and they finished at a good time. They did an awesome job. They went out of our way and worked with us even when we had to make changes. They did not complain about making the changes. Altogether an awesome job.

  • Philipp Hermann

    We had a fantastic experience with this moving company. The movers wrapped everything securely and handled the loading in San Jose and unloading in Truckee professionally and carefully. They were efficient, and the overall pricing felt reasonable for the distance and level of service. I’d happily recommend them to anyone planning a move. Thanks to Senol and his team, great job!

  • Thomas Linton

    Auteur and his crew came in and took care of my move with ease. They were very efficient and treated my items with care. Will definitely be calling Best California Movers when it’s time to move again

  • Marlene M.

    Roman, Max,Vokhit and Evgenii could not have been more helpful and knowledgeable about the moving process. They put my mind at ease . We finished in record time. I'm finally able to take a breath and enjoy my new home. Thank you much. I will be recommending Best California Movers to my community.

  • Christine Servida Chavarria

    Tole and the three other gentlemen who moved our home were so efficient, had great communication, upfront about fees and worked so hard with no minute wasted. It was worth every penny we paid for the move. Would use california mover again in a heartbeat!

  • Pershang Farshi 1 photo

  • Jenna Holmes

    I had the best moving experience with Tole and Stephan! They were efficient and hardworking. They were very careful with all of my items and made sure they were wrapped so that they would not be any damages. I have used this company in the past and will use them again in the future if I move again! I highly recommend.

  • Elvira Tinturin

    Roman and Sergei did an amazing job with our move! They were fast, careful, and super professional. Everything went smoothly. We’ll definitely call them again for our next move!

What Does a Move from California to Colorado Cost?

We price long-distance moves using two components: the labor required to pack, load, and unload your belongings, and the transportation cost of the trip itself, which depends on mileage, truck size, and time of year. Here are some typical ranges based on moves we've completed on this route:

Home Size Typical Range
Studio / 1-bedroom $2,200 – $4,000
2-bedroom $3,200 – $5,600
3-bedroom $4,400 – $7,200
4-bedroom $6,000 – $9,500
5+ bedroom / estate move $8,500 – $13,000+
Packing add-on Hourly at crew rate; materials priced by item
Full unpacking add-on Hourly at crew rate

You’ll get a detailed, itemized estimate upfront so you know what each part of your move costs. For larger households, we recommend an on-site or video walkthrough; this lets us assess your actual inventory and offer a flat rate for the job rather than an hourly estimate based on averages.

What affects your final cost:

  • Total inventory volume and the number of trucks required.
  • Distance between your California origin and Colorado destination.
  • Time of year - winter moves crossing mountain passes require additional routing time.
  • Packing, unpacking, and storage services added.
  • Access conditions at either address (stairs, elevators, long carries, HOA or building requirements).
  • Whether your move qualifies for an on-site assessment and flat-rate quote.

What Moving from California to Colorado Involves

A move from California to Colorado isn't a same-day drive. Depending on your California origin, the trip typically covers 1,000 to 1,300 miles and climbs several thousand feet in elevation before it's over - a different job than a local move across town.

Winter moves add a real variable: mountain passes on routes into Colorado can close or slow with weather, and a crew that hasn't planned around that will miss a delivery window. We factor in extra time into winter routing rather than promising a date we can't hold to when a storm moves through the Rockies.

Because Best California Movers operates out of hubs in North Hollywood, Poway, and Santa Clara, we can assign your move to the origin point that’s closest to your pickup address, rather than routing every California client through a single regional office. That is important for scheduling and means your shipment stays on one truck with one crew for the entire trip. We don’t hand your belongings off to another carrier or combine your shipment with other customers’ belongings to fill out the truck.

Our crews are direct employees of Best California Movers, not subcontracted labor. Every mover on your job has been background-checked and works for us directly, which matters most on a move where your belongings are on a truck for one to three days before you see them again.

What we handle before your move begins:

  • Confirming your route, delivery window, and crew assignment based on distance and season.
  • Assessing specialty items — pianos, safes, artwork, gym equipment — before moving day.
  • Coordinating storage if your Colorado address isn't ready on your move-out date.
  • Reviewing access conditions at both addresses, including stairs, elevators, and HOA requirements.
  • Building winter routing with weather buffers for mountain-pass conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Moving from California to Colorado

01 How much does it cost to move from California to Colorado?

Cost depends on your inventory volume, the distance between your specific addresses, the time of year, and any services you add, such as packing or unpacking. Most one- to three-bedroom moves fall between $2,200 and $7,200. We provide a detailed, itemized estimate before you commit, and larger households can schedule an on-site walkthrough to receive a flat-rate quote.

02 How long does a move from California to Colorado take?

Most moves take one to three days in transit, depending on your specific origin and destination and the time of year. Winter moves across mountain passes can take slightly longer when weather requires a change in route. You’ll receive a delivery window before your move is confirmed.

03 Will my belongings travel on their own truck, or will they be combined with other shipments?

Your belongings are loaded onto a dedicated truck assigned to your move. We don’t consolidate shipments with other customers’ belongings to fill a truck, and we don’t hand your shipment off to a different carrier partway through the trip.

04 Are your moving crews employees, or do you use subcontractors?

Our crews are direct, background-checked employees of Best California Movers. We don’t use subcontractors or day laborers for any move, whether local or long-distance.

05 Do you offer packing and unpacking for long-distance moves?

Yes. You can add full packing, unpacking, or both. Unpacking means our crew places your belongings in your new Colorado home and removes all packing materials before leaving, so you’re not living out of boxes for the following weeks.

06 What happens if my Colorado home isn't ready when I need to move out of California?

We coordinate short-term or long-term storage on either end of the move. If the timing between your two addresses might not line up, let us know during your estimate so we can plan accordingly.

07 Do you offer financing for a move to Colorado?

Yes. Our financing options let you spread the cost of your move over time. Ask about available plans when you request your estimate.

08 What if something is damaged during a long-distance move?

We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured. Basic valuation protection is included on every move at no additional cost, and full replacement value coverage is available for higher-value items. We’ll review your coverage options during your consultation.

09 Can you move specialty items like pianos, safes, or artwork to Colorado?

Yes. Let us know what you’re moving when you request your estimate so we can prepare the right equipment and crew size in advance.

10 How far in advance should I book a move from California to Colorado?

We recommend booking 3–4 weeks in advance, especially for moves between May and September. However, winter moves also benefit from earlier booking, since routing around mountain-pass weather sometimes requires flexibility in your pickup date.

Planning Your Move from California to Colorado?

Request a detailed, itemized quote. We'll walk you through exactly what's included - labor, transportation, and any services you add - before you make any decisions.
