Affordable Movers in Florissant, CO
Ballard’s is a labor-only moving company. You arrange the truck — U-Haul, Penske, or Budget — or leave the rental to us. Either way, our crew handles all the loading and unloading. $200 an hour, two-hour minimum, licensed and insured in Colorado. That’s the whole model.
Florissant sits along Highway 24 between Woodland Park and Divide — gateway to Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, neighbor to Lake George and Cripple Creek to the west and south. People who choose to live here aren’t looking for subdivisions. They want acreage, privacy, and room to breathe. The properties reflect it: multiple acres, horse facilities, outbuildings, dense pine forest right up to the fence line. It’s a specific kind of place, and the people who pick it know exactly why.
Moving here demands planning that most crews skip. Long gravel driveways limit your truck options. Dense tree canopy cuts down on staging room. Spread-out properties mean longer carries from front door to truck. We account for all of it before we leave Colorado Springs — right truck size, right crew, right game plan. No one shows up and improvises.
Truck rentals run $19.95–$49.95. Our labor is $200 an hour with a two-hour minimum. Most Florissant moves wrap in two to three hours. Compare that to what a full-service company charges for a rural mountain job and the math is clear.
We run Highway 24 constantly — Woodland Park, Divide, Florissant, on toward Lake George and Cripple Creek. This is regular territory, not a long-haul exception. No drive-time charges, no travel fees. Licensed and insured in Colorado. The rate we quote is the rate you pay.

The Smarter Way to Move
Why Florissant Residents Choose Labor-Only Moving
Most moving companies don’t serve Florissant. The ones that do charge premium rates for the distance and the terrain. Ballard’s takes a different approach. Arrange for a U-Haul, Penske, or Budget truck — typically $19.95–$49.95 depending on size — or let us handle the rental. Either way, you pay a straightforward hourly labor rate with no travel surcharges and
People who live in Florissant are self-reliant by nature. They handle what they can handle and they hire professionals for the rest. Labor-only moving fits that mindset perfectly: you coordinate the truck, we handle the heavy lifting. No middleman, no inflated full-service quote, no paying for services you don’t need.
We run Highway 24 through Woodland Park and Divide constantly. Florissant is a natural extension of the route we already know. When we quote a Florissant move, we’re pricing it based on real knowledge of the area — not adding a guesswork surcharge because it’s unfamiliar territory.
Small cabin or large rural property, light load or full household — the model is the same: our experienced crew, your truck, no hidden fees, and no surprises when the job wraps up.
