71%

Our data show that a staggering 71% of all household moves in the state of Colorado have been interstate ones (interstate moving) compared to 29% of local moves (short distance moving).

Intrastate movers in Colorado are regulated by the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (PUC). Each mover should have a PUC permit number to be allowed to move household goods. The PUC encourages people who are about to relocate to confirm that the moving company they are hiring is permitted in Colorado. You can check whether the moving company is licensed at the PUC site here.
