Ship a Car to Another State

If you’re looking to ship your car to another state, the easiest option to recommend is using a car hauler. Hiring an auto transport company, which utilizes either open or enclosed trailers, is the most common and affordable option available. There are tons of car hauling companies and tens of thousands of individual drivers throughout the entire country, so it’s pretty easy to find one in your area that can accommodate your needs, both in terms of availability and price range. There are two types of car hauling.

Open car transport involves loading your car into an open trailer, usually along with several other cars, and transported while being exposed to the elements of the open road (including dirt, rain, snow, etc). Despite these conditions, open car transport is considered very safe, and is in fact the most common method of car shipping. It’s also the most affordable option and considered the norm for auto transportation.

Potential drawbacks: While open car transport can save you lots of time and money, it offers less protection than enclosed car transport. And though your vehicle is still insured during transit, those looking for better peace of mind may want to explore other shipping options.

This shipping method involves loading your vehicle into an enclosed trailer, which offers some additional protection during transport. While it does cost more, it completely protects your car from getting dirty or damaged during the transportation process. Enclosed car shipping is very popular with owners of higher value vehicles, like luxury or vintage models. If you’re looking to maximize the level of protection for your vehicle during transportation, then this may be the best option for you.

Potential drawbacks: Since it is considered a premium service, this shipping method is more expensive than open car hauling. If you’re under a tight budget, then we recommend going with open car shipping instead.

This add-on service greatly simplifies the shipping process. Typically, shipping a vehicle involves delivering your vehicle to the carrier by meeting them at a shipping terminal. However, this might pose an issue if you aren’t located anywhere near a shipping terminal. But with door-to-door transport, your delivery drive instead comes straight to you, completely cutting out the need for a shipping terminal entirely. We recommend this service to anyone who wants to minimize their time and energy spent on car shipping, while maximizing convenience.

This service, while usually only reserved for open car hauling, though in some cases we have been able to add it to an enclosed auto transport service.

This service is intended for those who own vintage, luxury, or otherwise higher-value vehicles that require special handling. With this add-on option, our team will provide the highest level of care possible including additional tracking, regular check-ins during transit, and special handling via enclosed car transport shipping services.
