How long does New York City car shipping take?

Pickup in New York City usually happens 1 to 3 business days after you lock the rate. Transit time depends on distance: short lanes are 2 to 4 days, mid distance is 3 to 5 days, cross country is 7 to 10 days. We give you a real window when you book, not a vague promise.

Is the $99 deposit refundable?

The $99 deposit locks your rate and starts the dispatch process. It is fully refundable until a carrier is assigned to your load. Once we dispatch a carrier and the driver is on the way to New York City, the deposit covers our broker work. The balance is always paid to the carrier on delivery.

Do you pick up at my address in New York City?

Yes. We do door to door pickup and delivery for every New York City shipment. The carrier comes to your driveway, apartment building, dealership, or storage yard. If a side street is too tight for a 75 foot car hauler we will meet at a nearby parking lot, but you tell us where, not the other way around.

Open carrier or enclosed trailer?

Open carriers move about 95 percent of all cars in the US, including new cars from the factory. They are safe, weather tested, and cheaper. Enclosed trailers are for classics, exotics, low ground clearance cars, and anything you do not want exposed to road dust. We will recommend the right one for your vehicle when you quote.

Is my car insured during transport?

Yes. Every carrier we dispatch carries active cargo and liability insurance. You see the carrier's insurance certificate before the truck rolls. If anything happens in transit, you file a claim against the carrier's policy and we help you do it.

What is the most popular lane out of New York City?

New York City to Los Angeles is one of our most run routes. We dispatch trucks on that lane most weeks. If your route is something different, we still run it. Most cities in the lower 48 are 5 to 10 day delivery from New York City.

Can I get a quote without giving my email?

Yes. Our quote form gives you a real price in 30 seconds with no email gate and no phone gate. You only share contact info when you are ready to lock the rate with the $99 deposit. Look around first, no spam.

New York City sits inside a bigger network

Most people shipping a car out of New York City are not committed to New York City specifically. They are moving to or from a region, and the pickup point is negotiable by an hour or two. That matters, because a neighbouring metro on a heavier corridor can be cheaper and faster than the closest one, and a driver already routed through the area costs less than one sent for you.
