Military & Government Moves

Colorado Springs' Military Moving Experts

Colorado Springs is home to one of the largest concentrations of military personnel and installations in the United States. More than 40,000 active duty service members call this city home and thousands of them receive PCS orders every summer. Johnson has been the trusted moving partner for Colorado Springs military families for generations.

As a DOD-approved carrier, we understand every aspect of military relocation: entitlements, weight tickets, advance unaccompanied baggage, excess baggage coordination, storage in transit, and the compressed timelines that PCS orders impose on families who are already dealing with enough.

Peterson Space Force Base

Home of Space Operations Command (SpOC) and the 21st Space Wing. One of the highest-volume PCS installations in Colorado Springs.

Fort Carson

Home of the 4th Infantry Division. The largest Army installation in Colorado and a major driver of military family relocations year-round.

United States Air Force Academy

Faculty, staff, and cadet family moves in and out of the Academy require advance coordination and specific access protocols we know well.

Local Expertise

What It Takes to Move in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs has moving challenges that are genuinely specific to this city — military timelines, mountain access, and one of the most rapidly growing metro areas in Colorado.

The June–July PCS Surge

June and July in Colorado Springs are unlike any other time in any other Colorado city. PCS orders across five major installations create an extraordinary compression of moving demand in a very short window. Our crews staff and schedule specifically for this surge every year, but even so, June and July book out early. If you have PCS orders, call us the day you receive them.

Woodland Park & Teller County Access

Moving to or from Woodland Park, Divide, or Cripple Creek means navigating US-24's grade changes and the Ute Pass, a technically demanding route for large moving trucks. Green Mountain Falls and Cascade add narrow residential access on top of the grade. Our crews plan equipment and timing specifically for Teller County moves.

Northgate & Falcon New Construction

The Northgate corridor and Falcon/Peyton area are among the fastest-growing new construction communities in Colorado. Builder delays and phased move-in schedules are common, our climate-controlled storage on Sinton Road bridges the gap between your current home sale and your new home delivery, just minutes away on I-25.

Military Base Access & COI

Moving to on-base housing at Fort Carson, Peterson SFB, or the Air Force Academy requires base access coordination, vehicle passes, and, for some installations, Certificate of Insurance (COI) documentation from the moving company. Johnson handles all base access paperwork as a routine part of every on-post military move.

Colorado Springs' Wind & Weather

Colorado Springs sits in a high-plains wind corridor with regular gusts, dramatic temperature swings, and afternoon thunderstorms that can develop quickly. Our crews monitor weather and build contingency plans into every move, especially for Cheyenne Canyon, the Broadmoor, and the mountain foothills communities where weather changes fastest.

Defense Tech & Aerospace Moves

Colorado Springs has become one of the country's leading defense technology, space, and cybersecurity hubs, with companies like L3Harris, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and dozens of Space Command contractors establishing or growing operations here. Johnson handles commercial moves for the defense tech sector with the security-awareness and professionalism these clients expect.

Frequently asked questions

Colorado Springs Moving & Storage FAQ

Yes. Johnson is DOD-approved and has decades of experience with PCS moves from every major Colorado Springs installation — Peterson Space Force Base, Schriever Space Force Base, Fort Carson, the United States Air Force Academy, and Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Station. We understand military entitlements, weight ticket requirements, advance and excess unaccompanied baggage, and the compressed timelines that PCS orders demand. If you've just received orders, call us immediately — June and July book out fast.

Yes. Johnson serves all of El Paso County and the surrounding region — including Monument, Palmer Lake, Black Forest, Falcon, Peyton, Manitou Springs, Woodland Park, Divide, Fountain, and Security-Widefield. We also regularly serve Pueblo, Pueblo West, Canon City, Florence, and communities along the I-25 corridor from Castle Rock south to Walsenburg and into the Arkansas River Valley.

Our facility at 4225 Sinton Road features 40,000 square feet of climate-controlled, full-service storage with direct I-25 access, an autoloading ramp, and a full-length public truck scale that handles trucks up to 70 feet and 120,000 lbs. We are also a DOD-approved Storage in Transit (SIT) facility — meaning we can formally hold military shipments between PCS duty stations under Department of Defense requirements. This combination makes us uniquely equipped for both residential and military storage needs in Colorado Springs.

We are a licensed carrier — not a broker. Johnson Storage & Moving operates under USDOT #077949 as an authorized agent for United Van Lines. We employ our own drivers, moving crews, and packers. You are never handed off to a third-party moving company — the crew that estimates your move is the same company that executes it.

Yes. In addition to full-service residential and military storage, Johnson Warehousing offers dedicated commercial warehouse space in Colorado Springs for businesses needing logistics, distribution, and inventory management. Our Sinton Road facility has direct I-25 access and a full-length truck scale — making it ideal for freight-intensive commercial operations. Visit johnsonwarehousing.com for commercial warehousing details and availability.

Colorado Springs has two overlapping peak seasons — the standard Colorado summer peak (May–August) and the military PCS surge (June–July). The combination makes June and July the most compressed moving months in the city, with demand across five major installations hitting simultaneously. We recommend booking 5–7 weeks in advance during these months — and immediately upon receiving PCS orders. Colorado Springs' mild climate makes fall and spring excellent times to move with more schedule availability.

Yes. Johnson serves the full I-25 corridor south of Colorado Springs — including Pueblo, Pueblo West, Canon City, Florence, Penrose, Salida, and Buena Vista. We also cover the Wet Mountain Valley communities of Westcliffe and Silver Cliff, and serve communities along the Raton Pass corridor into northern New Mexico, connecting to our Albuquerque sister location.
