Boulder Movers

As Boulder residential movers, we know both SoBo and NoBo: South Boulder’s hilly terrain and North Boulder’s modern townhomes. Our local movers in Boulder are available for apartment and house-to-house moves, whether it is for a CU Boulder student, a senior or a family.

Best Movers in Boulder, Colorado
We know which Boulder neighborhoods require a smaller truck or a second crew for steep driveways or tight turns. You won’t need to explain, it’s our backyard too. Every local move means full access to a team and the necessary equipment to ensure a successful Boulder move. We protect floors and walls, and handle your move like it’s our own.
CU Boulder Student Moves
We help CU Boulder students move in and out every semester. Most of those moves are in and out of older apartments on The Hill, where the alleys are tight, parking is scarce and many buildings have no elevator, so we plan the truck size and crew for the building before moving day.
Parents moving a student from out of town can book and coordinate everything by phone at (720) 297-9904. If a student only needs a few pieces carried from one Hill apartment to another, ask about our packing and labor-only service.

Meet Our Founder
“I’ve been in the moving industry since I was 18, back in the early ’90s, and by the time I started Fischer Van Lines in 2004, I knew exactly what mattered most to people during a move. It’s not about just moving, it’s about trust, honesty, and having someone who actually cares about your stuff. That’s how I’ve built this moving company, on real relationships and real value.
We’re based in Denver, but we’re in Boulder all the time. We help CU Boulder students move in and out every semester, navigate the older streets in Chautauqua, and haul furniture up steep driveways in the foothills.
Boulder has its quirks, and we know how to work with them. Folks here care about their homes and their community, and that’s something we’ve built Fischer Van Lines on. With us, we’ll treat every Boulder move like our own.”
- Jeff Fischer, Founder of Fischer Van Lines

Does a moving company in Boulder need a permit to park the truck?
Mainly on metered blocks and in Neighborhood Parking Permit (NPP) zones. Pay stations cover downtown, University Hill and Boulder Junction. There, the City of Boulder issues Special Activity permits that let a moving truck stay past the posted limit. Requests are due at least five business days ahead, with the signed moving contract on business letterhead. In NPP zones, a vehicle without a permit gets the posted limit once a day. Limits are two or three hours, mostly on weekdays. NPP households get 25 free Day Passes a year, and one can be linked to the truck’s plate. Our moving truck and container rules guide has the full Boulder rules.
