Pluto is now moving away from the Sun, and was at its closest back in 1989 (between 1979 and 1999 it was in fact closer to the Sun than Neptune.) Pluto will again be at perihelion (its closest point to the Sun) in 2237!
The distance between the planets Neptune and Pluto is approximately 1,416,450 kilometers. Although, Neptune and Pluto are neighbors, no matter how these planets rotate, they will always be billions of miles apart.
Pluto will be closer to the Sun than Neptune starting in January 2227 to February 2247.
Pluto is an average of 5,913,520,000 km (39.5AU) from the Sun.

This distance varies every day as Saturn and Pluto take up different positions in their respective orbits.
Neptune is the planet that typically lies between Pluto and Uranus. However, during some parts of it's orbit, Pluto will be closer to the sun than Neptune is (i.e. Neptune is no longer between Uranus and Pluto; instead, Pluto is between Uranus and Neptune).In fact, as of February 11th, 1999, Pluto passed Neptune, thereby making Neptune the furthest planet from the Sun. Neptune will continue to be the further than Pluto until April 5th, 2231.
Neptune is in between Uranus and the former planet Pluto. :)

The orbit of Pluto crosses that of Neptune and so it is possible for the distance between the two to be very small. At their furthers, the distance is close to 12 billion km.

Neptune is the eighth and furthest planet from the Sun.

Since Pluto has a highly elliptical orbit, it can be between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, or it can be beyond the orbit of Neptune.

Firstly, Pluto actually has an oval-shaped orbit so you can not determine the the distance from the Sun because it will be different. Secondly, because of the egg-shaped orbit Pluto crosses over from Neptune making Neptune the 9th planet and Pluto the 8th planet. Hope this helps! :)
Neptune
The gravitational pull between them causes Pluto to come near neptune. Did you know that when Pluto goes to go around the sun, it goes through Neptunes system. (Neptune has rings)
