Car shipping to and from Colorado
Moving to Colorado, leaving it, or shipping a car within the state? Post the trip once and verified carriers and brokers send written quotes to your private dashboard. No spam calls.
Shipping a car in Colorado
I-70 west of Denver crosses the Eisenhower–Johnson tunnels at about 11,000 feet, and winter storms and chain laws on that stretch can slow trucks by a day or more. Front Range cities along I-25, from Fort Collins to Colorado Springs, are easier to serve all year, and Colorado Springs' Army and Space Force bases bring regular military moves.
Main routes: I-25, I-70 and I-76.
Cities we serve include Denver, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins and Grand Junction, plus every other town in Colorado: if a truck can reach it, you can post it.

Popular routes to and from Colorado
When to ship to and from Colorado
Winter weather
Winters in Colorado bring snow and road salt, roughly December to March. Carriers keep running, but a storm can push pickup or delivery by a day or two. A car on an open carrier will arrive salty, so plan a wash.
Mountain passes
Routes through Colorado can cross mountain passes where winter storms and chain laws slow trucks. Building a spare day or two into a winter pickup window takes the pressure off.
Peak moving season
June to August is the busiest moving season in North America: school-year moves, new jobs and military transfers all land in summer. Posting early gives you more quotes and more choice of dates.
Moving to Colorado?
Once the car arrives, register it with the Colorado DMV (county motor vehicle offices). Ask what it needs for a vehicle registered somewhere else (often a VIN check, an inspection or an emissions test) before your old plates or insurance run out.
Shipping across the Canadian border? Only companies that handle cross-border work will quote, and you'll need the ownership or title, ID and a signed authorization letter; permanent imports have extra steps. Each cross-border route page explains the paperwork.
