Cost Traps to Check Before You Book
A Severance move can go sideways over hour minimums, hidden line items, and licensing gaps. Start with the numbers that affect the final bill.
Hour minimums
Full-service moves in Colorado average around $120 per hour, and most local crews enforce a 2-to-3-hour minimum. Ask whether travel time counts toward that minimum or bills separately.
Labor-only rates
Loading and unloading help generally runs $89 to $175 per hour depending on crew size. Confirm whether the price covers a two-person crew or changes with additional workers.
Job-size estimates
Typical local estimates: $300–$600 for a studio or one-bedroom, $700–$1,400 for a two-bedroom, and $1,000–$2,500+ for a three- to four-bedroom home, depending on volume and stairs.
Hidden costs and licensing
Plan on $4 to $5 per mover per hour for tips, more for heavy lifting. Ask if gratuity is built into the quote or expected on site. Colorado regulates intrastate movers through the PUC; request the moving company’s active PUC number before you sign.
Renting a truck yourself runs $54 to $124 per day before fuel and mileage, which may work better for small loads. Severance’s plains wind and HOA parking rules can also complicate unloading—ask how the crew will secure loose items and where the truck can legally park.

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 Weld County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 29% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
