Los Angeles to Denver
Denver is the longest haul we run out of Los Angeles, just over 1,015 miles north on I-15 through Utah before I-70 turns east into the Rockies, climbing through the Eisenhower Tunnel and over Vail Pass on the way into the city. Families take this route for an energy or aerospace job, a transfer near the Front Range, or a fresh start with real seasons after years in the LA basin.

Mountain driving changes the schedule
The I-70 climb into the Rockies, through the Eisenhower Tunnel at over 11,000 feet and down the far side of Vail Pass, is nothing like the flat desert miles on I-15 through Utah. Winter chain requirements can shut down a lane at a time on that stretch, so Marcus builds a two-to-three-day schedule into every Denver job and checks mountain conditions before the truck ever leaves Sun Valley.
- Our own crew carries the load the full 1,015 miles into Denver, no truck swap along the way
- Every item inventoried and padded, heavy pieces boarded for the mountain climb ahead
- Departure and route timed around I-70 chain requirements, October through April
- Short-term storage available if your Denver closing hasn’t landed yet
The longest lane, still one number
Priya prices the whole 1,015 miles after walking your Los Angeles rooms, one figure that covers the desert through Utah and the climb through the Rockies. Nothing gets added once the truck reaches the mountains.
