Long-distance moving companies in Boulder, Colorado
If you are planning a long distance move to or from Boulder, Colorado, you are probably excited and apprehensive at the same time. It’s a significant life transition, with a lot of work involved. One of the major tasks is finding a suitable mover. Once you get that settled, you can move on to the fun parts…. like finding a new dentist.
But how can you be sure the mover you hire is legitimate? Three Movers recommends that you visit the website created by FMCSA—the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. They oversee interstate movers and help consumers avoid moving fraud.
FMCSA requires that interstate movers register with them, and the company will have a Motor Carrier ID number to demonstrate their compliance. You can check on the site to review their safety record and any customer complaints.
While on the FMCSA website, look for some of the informative materials available there. You will find resources about estimates, insurance, and other relevant topics, plus tips on avoiding moving industry scams.
Local Boulder, Colorado movers
Movers that work exclusively within the State of Colorado aren’t subject to FMCSA oversight, so it’s up to you to determine whether they are qualified to handle your local relocation in Boulder, Colorado. The Colorado Public Utilities Commission issues permits to movers but doesn’t require them to submit information on their operations.
It’s a good idea to request a copy of the company business license and insurance coverage and to check with the Better Business Bureau for reviews from recent customers.
How much will it cost to move to or from Boulder, Colorado?
Experts recommend that you get at least three estimates from reputable companies before choosing a vendor for your move. Check that the bids offer the same service level, so the comparison is appropriate. The factors that determine the price of a move are the shipment’s size and the trip’s distance. As a result, local jobs are far less expensive in most cases than long distance projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Accurate Are Your Moving Estimates? Are They Considered Final?
The accuracy of moving statements acquired via web forms or phone calls may usually reach as high as 90%. But before a moving company supplies you with a final written report, an on-site inspection is mandatory. Assessments include counting the number of bedrooms in your household and weighing your items.
What’s The Best Time To Move In Boulder, Colorado? How Far Ahead Should I Plan My Move?
Before moving to Boulder, Colorado, you should check the recommended times to contact a moving company and when to move to the city. If you’re moving locally, you may contact the company within two to four weeks. If you’re moving from the far end of the city or another state, we suggest that you contact a moving company within three to six weeks.
You must avoid moving into Boulder, CO, the US, from May to July. These are the busiest months, and tourists are more likely to visit so that travel costs may go higher due to its demand. You are encouraged to move to Boulder in December when tourists aren’t as jampacked. These are the least expensive months to travel costs due to their low demand.
I Don’t Have Enough Boxes To Package Up My Belongings. Where Can I Find Moving Boxes in Boulder, Colorado?
If you’re looking for additional boxes to pack your belongings, you may get them at the following places:
● Supermarket
● Bookstores
● Retailers
You may also ask your friends and relatives if they have boxes that they don’t use anymore so you can save on costs. Packing your items doesn’t need to be expensive.
Is There Anything That a Moving Crew Won’t Accept to Load?
Before engaging with a moving organization, you should know which things they will not permit you to bring. To prevent that, here’s a list of prohibited items:
● Fertilizers
● Motor Oil
● Household Cleaners
● Pesticides
● Paints and Nail Polish Remover
● Scuba Tanks
● Propane Tanks
● Some Batteries
● Charcoal
● Aerosols
Who Regulates Moving Companies In Boulder, Colorado? Where Can I Verify A Movers’ License?
The Colorado Public Utilities Commission controls interstate movers and must meet particular standards before operating. Interstate movers must be certified by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
The Public Utilities Commission regulates household goods movers per title 40, article 10.1, C.R.S. and Commission rules. The Commission takes action against moving companies for:
a) exceeding the terms or conditions of the permit
b) refusing to obey a rule
I Had An Emergency, And Now I Need A Last-Minute Move. Is That Possible?
Yes, a last-minute move is possible, but you must consider several factors such as:
● Peak Period. Are you moving during Westminster’s most eventful month? Moving during the busiest period of a city is usually more costly due to the transportation’s demand.
● The volume and weight of the items you’re moving.
● Distance. How far is your destination?
● The availability of moving companies. As we mentioned, you must consider if you’re moving during the busiest period. Moves made during this month take months of reservation.
What Documents Do I Need To Have On Me On The Day Of The Move?
The moving team manager will ask you to present your Insurance Certificate, Bill, Estimate, and Inventory List during the moving day. In case an emergency arises, you also have to prepare your personal documents, such as:
● Your Driver’s License
● Your Vehicle Registration Record (if you have one)
● Your Passport
You don’t need to bring all of the items listed above, but you have to carry at least one so once an authoritative figure asks for it, you can show it to them
