Moving Companies in Applewood, CO
Hourly pricing drives nearly every Applewood move, and several charges can quietly widen the gap between an estimate and the final bill. Pin these down before you book.
Hour Minimums
A standard two-person crew with a truck bills at $100-$120 per hour; three or four movers push that to $150-$200+ per hour. Ask how many movers your home size actually requires.
- Studio / 1-bedroom: $400-$700 (3-5 hours)
- 2-bedroom: $800-$1,400 (5-8 hours)
- 3+ bedroom: $1,500-$3,500+
Travel Charges
The clock often doesn't begin at your front door. Crews may start billing when they leave the dispatch warehouse, which can add one to two hours of labor to the invoice. Ask exactly when the timer starts.
Hidden Fees and Access Costs
Applewood's hilly pockets, narrow streets, and mature tree cover can block a standard truck. A long carry from the curb consumes billable time. Many communities in the Applewood, Golden, and Lakewood corridor also restrict overnight truck parking, weekend moves, or require elevator reservations—a parking fine or rescheduled slot will hurt your budget. Sudden weather shifts can lengthen loading time when crews protect furniture from moisture. Ask about street access and HOA rules in advance.
Liability Gaps
Basic valuation covers just $0.60 per pound per item. A 30-pound television worth $1,000 would pay out $18. Ask about Full Value Protection for anything high-value.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Jefferson County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 18% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
