Long distance hauling companies
Selecting a relocator to manage your long distance move to or from Montrose, Colorado, is important. There's no question that shifting long distance is a big life transition, and you want to find the right partner for the project. One of the items to pay attention to is the choice of insurance.
Moving insurance is regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (known as FMCSA), which requires that the vendors offer you two choices. As provided in the estimate, the cost of the move will include basic relocation coverage at no additional charge and an option for a more comprehensive valuation for an additional fee
Many consumers trying to save money while relocating will choose the primary value option without considering the potential impact this may have if something in the shipment is lost or broken. Be aware that the reimbursement amount with the basic (free) coverage is limited and may not be adequate. Review the terms carefully before you decide.
Local Relocators
Local hauler often have minimum charges, usually a certain number of hours. When you request an estimate for your local move in Montrose, if your project is expected to require fewer than the mover's minimum, they will let you know. Ask them if you can use the remaining time for packing or some other purpose since you will be paying for it regardless. Also, always ask about additional fees for fuel, equipment use, and anything else added on top of the hourly charges.
Approximate Cost for hauling
The recommended way of finding out what your upcoming move will cost is to gather estimates from at least three reputable moving companies. Meet with each shifter so you know they are legitimate, and ask them to inspect the shipment as a basis for the rate quote. As you compare the bids, ensure that they are similar enough for a valid comparison (for example, they include similar services and are each either binding or nonbinding, not a mix.)

Frequently Asked Questions
Montrose moves are most comfortable in early summer and early fall when temperatures are mild and crews can load quickly without weather delays. Winter moves remain common, but snow and icy roads can add 1–2 hours to loading or delivery. Timing also depends on the size of your home, access to driveways, daylight hours, and whether elevators or long carries are required. Local moves within the valley typically occur within the same day, while longer intrastate routes may require a flexible delivery window.
Colorado intrastate movers must hold a permit with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission, while any state-to-state move falls under FMCSA oversight. You can verify a mover’s authority using the FMCSA’s public database. Regulation ensures compliance with insurance, vehicle safety, and tariff rules. Factors affecting your move include whether it is a local, intrastate, or interstate route, the crew size needed, and any building or HOA access instructions.
Most Montrose households source boxes from specialty suppliers, hardware stores, or online marketplaces. For standardized options that fit common packing workflows, review our guide to moving supplies through our moving boxes resource. The number of boxes you need varies by home size, fragile-item volume, and whether movers are providing partial or full packing.
Yes. Montrose residents often use short-term storage when staging a home, completing renovations, or awaiting final keys. Crews typically load items into a secure facility for a few days up to several weeks. Capacity depends on home size, climate-control needs, and whether large items such as pianos or safes require special handling. Storage is commonly paired with a full service moving option to streamline loading and re-delivery.
For Colorado-based intrastate moves, complaints can be submitted to the Colorado Public Utilities Commission. For interstate moves, the FMCSA handles loss, delay, and fraud reports. Keep copies of the bill of lading, inventory, and all correspondence. Complaints typically hinge on delivery windows, disputed weight tickets, or unauthorized charges. Review our guidance on protecting your shipment with an interstate moving service when crossing state lines.
