Shipping Cost from Phoenix, Arizona to Colorado Springs, Colorado

Shipping furniture is expensive, typically costing $300 to over $1,000 for cross-country moves, varying greatly by size, weight, distance, and service, with small items like chairs sometimes costing $50-$200 via parcel, while large sofas can be $300-$1,500+ using LTL freight or specialized movers. Expect higher prices for long distances, heavy items, and white-glove services, but save money with disassembly or freight consolidation.

Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) Freight The carrier picks up your crated or palletized furniture and delivers it alongside other loads. While LTL shipments may make multiple stops and transfers, it's one of the cheapest methods overall for medium-sized loads.

Shipping furniture can be worth it for high-value, custom, or sentimental pieces (like antiques or designer items) where replacement costs are high, but often it's more economical and less hassle to sell low-to-mid-range furniture and buy new at your destination, especially for particleboard or mass-produced items, as shipping costs (hundreds to thousands of dollars) often exceed the item's value plus a little extra for a new purchase. The decision hinges on comparing the full cost of shipping (including potential damage/repairs) versus the cost and hassle of replacing it, factoring in size, weight, and sentimental attachment.
