If you go to Colorado, you will be high both in terms of mountain peaks and legal recreational pot. For these and many other reasons, more and more Americans decide to move to a Centennial State. If you are one of them and need professional Colorado movers, we at Cross Country Moving Company can help you with that. Colorful Colorado has its nickname not only because of its incredible and diverse nature but also because of its interesting culture, history, and customs. If you are an outdoor enthusiast who loves nature but yet wants to live in urban and vibrant cities, you made an excellent choice. The Centennial State has it all, and the wilderness is often just minutes away from significant economic centers and urban life. In fact, this state is one of the best for starting a new business, and it has one of the lowest unemployment rates in a country — no wonder the majority of people who decide to move here are young and people with families.
The Highest State is just one of many nicknames “natives” (Coloradans call themself natives) refer to when they talk about The Centennial State. It got that nickname because some of the highest peaks in the USA (outside of Alaska) are located here. The Centennial State has 75% of the US land area with an altitude over 10,000 feet and 56 fourteeners – peaks higher than 14,000 feet. So if you love skiing, hiking, fishing, or snowboarding, the Highest State will blow you away with its nature. Centennial State has 222 wildlife areas.
A thriving economy and beautiful family-friendly cities are not the only things that lure so many people here. Housing options are incredible and affordable, and in addition to all that, you can rest assured that your kids will have access to excellent public schools. The cities are not that crowded, and there is a lot of space, so most cities are still growing and spreading. Talking about entertainment, you will not be bored at all. Some of the best and most bizarre festivals, like Frozen Dead Man Festival or Mike the Headless Chicken Festival, are held here, and you simply have to participate in all of them once you move here. Coloradans are very proud of their rich history and origins, and to be fair, they have a lot to show for.
Before we start talking about the best cities to live in, we should mention that state median household income is above the national average. So if some of the cities seem a bit expensive, bear this information in mind. For instance, if you move to Denver, your living costs will be higher, but your salary will be too. When we talk about the best places to live in Centennial State, the top-notch places to live are Denver’s suburbs – Holly Hills, Cherry Creek, Superior, North Park Hill, and Inverness.
Most people here own their houses, and the median home value goes from $400,000 to $600,000. All in all, there are plenty of beautiful cities you can choose from and live there. Here are some of the finest:
The Centennial state has a lot to offer to its visitors the whole year round. From amazing hikes in Rocky Mountains National Park to endless plains covered with corn and grain, there are no sights you won’t like here, even without hard-working hikes. You can go to Aspen, the world’s greatest ski resort, and just enjoy the scenery. Or, if you have a taste for history, you will be happy to hear that some of the oldest settlements are going way back to 14,000 years. Furthermore, Native Americans whose ancestors built those sites still live here.
Also, the state shares its Dinosaur National Monument with its neighbor Utah, and there are more than 1500 dinosaur bones at the site. If you love good concerts, you should see one at the Red Rock Amphitheater, an open-air stage made of rocks. It was probably used by the Ute tribe back in the day. Plant lovers can enjoy a beautiful botanical garden in Denver, but those that are more of an adrenaline type aren’t forgotten.
There are all kinds of extreme off-road sports to try out. And once you move here, you will have to start planning out hiking to your fourteeners. But before all that, let’s plan out your relocation and check out CCMC, one of the best cross-country moving companies in Colorado, and what we have to offer.
Now, if you decided to move to this great state, it is time to figure out how you will do it. It will be helpful to mention that even though the state is at a high altitude and surrounded by the Rocky Mountains, it has a lot of sunny days as well. Denver has more than 300 sunny days a year. The good news is that it doesn’t rain a lot, but it can be snowy. So you will have to bring both your winter gear and summer equipment, and there isn’t a better way to do it than with the help of professionals.
We at Cross Country Moving Company know how stressful and chaotic relocation can be. It will take a lot of your time and energy, especially if you don’t have other arrangements all sorted out (like finding a place to live.) With our team of trained professionals, you will relocate your entire house without any stress, and best of all, you won’t have to take a day off your work and lose money in such a way. With our cross-country moving service, you will have a team of professional cross-country movers, a truck for your belongings, and dedicated moving agents who will be in charge of your relocation once you hire us. Our long-distance movers will disassemble and reassemble all your bulky and heavy furniture, put protective materials on it, put it in a truck, and unload it in your new home.
Also, don’t hesitate to contact our agent and ask for a free estimate of your move. With our long-distance moving company, there are no hidden costs. We base our price on the inventory list you provide us, and once we give you a quote, there will be no changes, except if you decide to add something or take something away from the list.
Do you wish that we pack only your glassware? Or maybe you want our professionals to pack your entire house? You can choose a packing service you find most convenient for your relocation and budget at our company. There are two types of additional services we offer – full and partial packing. Our team will pack everything on your list with full service, your clothes, dishes, small, large, and bulky items. It is similar with partial service, only the number of boxes can’t exceed 15, or we’ll consider it a full service. We will bring appropriate packing materials with us like boxes, bubble wrap, blankets, and others.
If you are not in the mood to drive all the way to the Highest State, you can always hire us for auto shipping service. If you are relocating with family, you probably own more than one car, and you will need to hire someone for your long-distance moving. With our services, you get to choose between two types of trailers, open and enclosed. Both options have their advantages, so you should choose which one is better for you.
An open trailer is most commonly used to ship cars. If you have more than one vehicle, this option is better because it is cheaper, and you get to have your cars at the same time at your new location. The only problem is that your car will need a wash after the trip because of outside factors, like weather conditions and road debris. An enclosed trailer is a bit expensive, but it will keep your car safe from all the elements. This option is excellent if you have a sport or luxurious car.
There are two types of pick-up and delivery options for you to choose from – door-to-door and terminal-to-terminal. With door-to-door, our crew will come to your house and pick your car there, and the delivery will be at your doorstep as well. This is a more expensive option, but it doesn’t require you to do anything except be present or send someone else to be there. With another option, you will have to take your car to the nearest terminal and pick it up at your new location. This option is cheaper, but you will have to drive to the terminal and back.
Sometimes people decide to relocate to a new state but don’t want to move all their stuff right away. For example, you wish to move but didn’t find a place to live, so you decide to stay at a friend’s place until you do. For these situations, we offer our customers storage units free of charge for the whole month. You can rest assured that your belongings will be safe at our top-notch facilities. Our facilities have the best video surveillance system and climate control, so you can relax and not worry about the conditions.
If some of the moving companies in Colorado you came across during your search do not have insurance, that is a huge red flag for fraud. Every legit company in this business has it. Our company will provide you with mandatory or basic moving insurance which covers 60 cents per pound of damaged goods. If this is insufficient for you, you can choose the full value replacement policy, which means you will get compensation for the item’s full value, but it only covers stuff that the CCMC crew packed.
And if you choose our car shipping service, your vehicles will be covered up to $100,000 for an open trailer and $500,000 for an enclosed one.
