DENVER MOVERS

This can’t be accurately answered until we know the specifics of your move and how many belongings you need relocated. But in general, the average cost of a basic local move in Denver (with two moving professionals and a truck) will cost you between $90 and $120 per hour. For a three-bedroom home, the cost would be about $1200 altogether.

Here at Moving Proz, we charge by the amount of time your move takes, starting with an estimate based on the information you give us about your move. This estimate includes a minimum and an hourly rate per mover, but we will only bill you in 15-minute increments so you’re only paying for what you use.

We do not charge fuel or mileage surcharges, walking fees, stair fees, or any other hidden add-on fees. We do charge a fee for additional stops but only if you have not made us aware of this beforehand. We recommend advising us of any stops at the time of booking.

We take a 35% deposit when you book a local move, but long-distance moves require a 50% deposit over two installments. You will be responsible for any remaining balance at the end of your move, before the movers depart the premises.

You can also tip your movers for excellent service. A good rule of thumb is between $5 and $10/hr/mover.

This is a highly subjective decision, but there are some neighborhoods that may suit your needs better than others. For instance, if you love the hustle and bustle of city life, you may want to consider Capitol Hill, the city’s most densely populated neighborhood. There are many bars and restaurants in this area, great for college students or young professionals.

If you have a young family, on the other hand, you may want to try someplace like Greenwood Village, which is rich in history and features a safe, welcoming neighborhood. Many families with young children choose to settle here, thanks to the many outdoor activities and parks, as well as great schools.

Other neighborhoods to choose from in Denver include:

• Washington Park
• Littleton
• Central Business District
• Five Points
• Cherry Creek
• Baker
• Sloans Lake
• Highlands

Estimates show that a family of two adults and two children in Denver would need to earn a combined $92,000 per year — or $7,700 a month — in order to live comfortably. The median household income here is about $75,000 a year.

While Denver has countless beautiful and safe neighborhoods, there are some that may be considered more dangerous than others in terms of crime rate. They include:

Again, this is a highly subjective decision. U.S. News & World Report did rank Denver as the second-best city in the United States to live in 2020. If you love the mountain views, fresh air and hot job market, Denver is a great choice. However, keep in mind it has a high cost of living and high population growth. Still, the close proximity to the Rockies, pleasant weather and the opportunity to ski most months of the year all bring people closer to Denver’s strong sense of community.

If people do make the move to leave Denver, they are more likely to venture to the following destinations:

• Santa Barbara CA
• Wichita KS
• Little Rock AR
• Lincoln Nebraska
• Columbus OH
• Baltimore MD
• New Orleans LA
• Cincinnati OH
• Worcester MA
• St. Louis Metro
• Salt Lake City Metro
