Quotes well below the typical range are almost always bait-and-switch. You are quoted a low price to pay the deposit, and then the price is bumped at the last minute.
Insured under federal cargo liability requirements. Coverage is part of the quote, not an add-on.
Your price holds for 28 days. Cancel free until 7 days before pickup.
Most shipments run door to door. If access is tight (narrow streets, low clearance), we will arrange a nearby meeting point.
One percent of every booking funds Clean Air Task Force, a nonprofit working on transport and energy emissions.
Great experience! It was very personalized and attentive. I had an emergency move and they managed to pick up the car just the next day after booking.
Really nice company, the whole process was fast and easy peasy.
Professional service and reasonable price considering they had to winch my car on the trailer.

Winter is the one time of year a Pennsylvania date is likely to move, and even then not for long. In a heavy storm the state takes trucks off its interstates, car carriers included, and puts them back once the worst has passed.
PennDOT restricts trucks on Pennsylvania’s interstates during heavy winter storms, and the restriction usually lifts within about a day.
The restrictions come in tiers. At the lower ones a loaded car carrier can keep going on chains, but at the top ones no commercial truck may use the road at all. They aren’t rare. Northeast Pennsylvania went through four of them between mid-January and late February 2025, and Philadelphia’s interstates were under one from two in the afternoon on December 26 that year until the next day.
A pickup or delivery that falls inside one moves to after it lifts.
If the move makes you a Pennsylvania resident, these are the state's rules for the car.
Checked September 2026 against PennDOT. Rules change; the state's own site has the final word.
One percent of every booking goes to Clean Air Task Force, a nonprofit working on policy and technology to clean up transport and energy emissions.

Pennsylvania open-carrier shipments cost $900 to $2,300. The 700 to 800 mile runs to Georgia and Illinois are $900 to $1,350, Florida is $1,000 to $1,600, and California, close to 2,900 miles off, is $1,550 to $2,300.
Most Pennsylvania shipments arrive in 2 to 8 days. Georgia and Illinois are the short runs at 2 to 4 days, Florida takes 3 to 5 and Texas 3 to 6, while Arizona needs 4 to 7 and California 5 to 8.
Pennsylvania wants a title and registration application within 20 days of the move, not of the car's arrival. The out-of-state title needs the VIN verified first, by a certified inspection mechanic or a notary, or a tracing of the VIN plate. Once the car is registered, it has ten days to pass a Pennsylvania safety inspection at an official station.
The deposit is charged 7 days before your pickup window opens; for a pickup inside 7 days it is held on your card at booking and charged when your driver is confirmed. The remaining balance is paid to the driver at delivery.
You can leave up to 100 pounds of personal items in one piece of luggage, placed in the trunk or cargo area. Some carriers will accept additional weight for an added fee; we can arrange this for you after booking.
Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.
The truck waits until the road is safe to drive, and your pickup or delivery date moves with it. We'll confirm the driver's new window with you as soon as the road reopens. Snow on the mountain passes and in the northern states, and hurricanes along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts, are the usual causes.
One to two weeks ahead is enough on most routes. Busy corridors handle shorter notice, and quieter lanes benefit from the full two weeks. Booking earlier does not lower the price; it settles your dates sooner, and the price holds for 28 days either way.
