Moving Companies in Burns, WY
Burns is a small town in Laramie County without its own moving-company storefronts, so crews usually come from Cheyenne, roughly 25 to 30 miles west, to cover local jobs.
What a local move costs
- Average hourly rate: $99 per mover
- Most companies set a 2 to 3 hour minimum, plus a travel fee since Burns sits outside Cheyenne
- Studio or 1-bedroom: $400 - $700
- 2 to 3-bedroom home: $900 - $2,200
- 4+ bedroom home: $2,300 - $3,500+
- Peak season, May through September, adds 20% - 30% to the price
Since crews are traveling in from Cheyenne rather than based in town, it helps to book a few days ahead and confirm both the crew size and the truck size, since a larger household needs more than the standard two-mover team. Ask movers to put the travel or service radius fee in writing before moving day rather than letting it get added afterward, since that is the most common source of price surprises for a rural address like Burns.
Booking outside the busy months and confirming those fees up front are the easiest ways to keep the bill down. The listings below cover movers that regularly reach the Burns area.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Laramie County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 62% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
