What to Expect When Moving from California to Colorado
Travel Route
Planning your route gives you an idea of prices per mile. The most common way from California to Colorado is I-70 East, which starts in north Cali and stretches through all the way to Denver.
This route covers around 1,200 miles, depending on your starting point, and takes around 16 to 18 hours of driving, depending on your speed. I-70 is a scenic route with the Sierra Nevada mountains views, the desert of Utah, and the Rocky Mountains as you approach Colorado, a great road trip.
If you’re starting from southern California, you might take I-15 North to I-70 East, which is another option bus less scenic..
Lifestyle
Prepare for a nice change of pace between California and Colorado. Take a deep breath of mountain air and be ready to slow down. Enjoy the journey
Adjustment Tips
Moving from the hustle and bustle that CA offers to the calm and cool of the mountain air in Colorado is a wonderful life improvement. You will love the proximity to the best ski resorts and we know you’ll have your season’s passes ready in no time.

Cross Country Moving
A long distance move takes a lot of planning, preparation, and coordination. Fortunately, the team at Moving APT offers all three – and more.
When you book your California to Colorado moving company, you want a team you can trust. You need to be sure they’ll show up on time, go where they’re supposed to go, and handle all your stuff with care while they’re at it. That’s why we vet all our movers, and that’s why we do a little secret shopping to make sure they’re staying honest and staying sharp.
Full Packing
Sure, you’ve seen the “life hacks” about using old Amazon boxes to pack up all your stuff, but are you really gonna trust cardboard that’s been sitting around for three years? Don’t be cheap, and don’t be reckless. Pay the pros to handle the packing, and make sure you’re getting the best packing services in California.
What makes Moving APT so awesome when it comes to packing? High-quality boxes and padding supplies. Specialized equipment for loading and hauling. Extra TLC for high-value stuff like art and antiques. Custom crating for those awkward-shaped, awkward-sized items. The list goes on.
Storage Solutions
You can’t keep a moving truck in your driveway forever. The neighbors won’t like it, and your movers have places to go. Good thing Moving APT offers top rated Colorado storage, too.
If you need more time to get unpacked and get situated, we get it. That’s why we offer secure, on-site storage for all that extra stuff. You get more time to rearrange your new place at your own pace, and when you need that last box or missing end table, we’ll run it over to you so you don’t have to make any extra trips. More flexibility, and more security. That’s what you get with Moving APT.
Corporate Relocation
You’ve got a million things to keep track of at work. Don’t make “moving our entire operations” a million and one.
We’ve got you covered if you need a corporate move done right. Our California commercial movers know their way around mom-and-pops and international HQs alike. Whether you’ve got inventory to pack up, machinery or appliances to load, or just one of those weirdo tech-bro playgrounds in the middle of your office (think pool tables, arcade cabinets, and massage chairs), we can pack it, haul it, and get it unloaded and unpacked with minimal fuss.

Answering California to Colorado Moving FAQs
Moving in California can take anywhere from 7 to 21 days. There are a number of different factors at play here, but like the price of your move, it all comes down to the miles and the mass.
Drivers aren’t allowed to clock more than 400 miles of interstate travel per day. That 400-per-day rule is a good way to figure out the baseline for your move’s duration.
But aside from rules and regulations, movers typically bundle smaller moves together to avoid wasted space in a truck or trailer.
It keeps costs down (and your stuff will be safely separated), but there may be delays for pickups and deliveries if you’re just moving a small amount of belongings.
If you want to really prepare for moving day, we recommend starting early. Like, WAY EARLY. Start planning at least two or three months in advance, and try to downsize as much as possible before you start shopping for moving quotes. If you’re doing your own packing, start with your least-used items, and slowly work your way to your most-used items.
PS: If you’re looking for more last-minute advice, we recommend putting all your daily essentials in one easy-to-access backpack or suitcase. That way you won’t have to dig through tons of boxes just to find your toothbrush.
The cheapest way to move is to DIY. At least, on paper. Unfortunately, after you rent a truck, pay for gas, shell out extra money for food and lodging, and skip out on all those paychecks so you can wrap, pack, load, and haul all by yourself, your savings may not be what you expected. It may cost a little extra, but a full service move is way more efficient.
Legit moving companies will be certified by the Department of Transportation (DOT), and if they operate across state lines, they’ll need to be certified by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as well. When you’re on their website, look for a DOT number and an MC number. If you can’t find them, don’t be afraid to ask!
