Moving from Colorado to Nevada

Professional movers work great for this 700-mile journey through the Mountain West. The I-70 to I-15 route is well-traveled, and Las Vegas/Reno have good moving services. Since you're staying in similar climate zones, this is a relatively straightforward move.

You're actually staying in similar territory! Both have dry, sunny climates, though Nevada's desert heat is more intense in summer and you'll lose Colorado's mountain snow. Think less altitude, more slot machines, and way hotter summers.

If you love Colorado's outdoor lifestyle but want even lower taxes (no state income tax!) and don't mind desert instead of mountains, Nevada's great! You'll trade skiing for hiking, mountain lakes for desert adventures, and high altitude for gambling opportunities.

Plan about 4-6 weeks total, with professional movers taking 2-4 days for transport. Since you're staying in the Mountain West with similar conditions, this is usually a pretty straightforward move with reliable timing.

Desert heat can be intense! Schedule your move for spring or fall if possible, and consider climate-controlled transport for electronics, candles, or anything heat-sensitive. Also, Nevada's extremely dry air might affect wood furniture differently than Colorado's mountain humidity.
