We provide reliable and comprehensive car transportation services across the US to guarantee your vehicle reaches quickly and safely. A wide variety of vehicles, including luxury, vintage, and new cars as well as motorcycles, are catered to by our car shipping services. Our expertise and understanding in the field of logistics allow us to provide smooth and effective across the country auto transportation services.

How International Auto Shipping Works

To ensure a smooth and secure shipping experience, we follow a structured process that covers all aspects of transportation, from pick-up to final delivery.

Step 1: Preparation

We'll assist you in gathering all the required information and documentation before shipping your car, This includes details such as:

Vehicle Information:

We must know your vehicle's, model, year, and condition. We might inquire for more details for large or unique vehicles, such as race cars or historic cars, in order to make sure we offer the best shipping option.

Locations for Pickup and Delivery:

We'll arrange the logistics and route whether you're exporting across the USA or to specific regions. If you would rather, we can set up door-to-door service, which involves having your car picked up from your house and delivered right to your destination.

Documentation:

The title and registration of your car are among the basic documents that are needed. These documents attest to ownership and guarantee a seamless transit experience. A copy of your ID will also be required when you or someone you've chosen pick up the vehicle.

Step 2:

Car Collection

Once everything is done, one of our reliable transport carriers will come pick up your car from where it is. There are two main modes of transportation that you can select from, based on your preferences and the kind of vehicle being transported:

Transport by Open Carrier:

This is the most popular and cheapest way to ship cars around the United States. Your vehicle will be placed into an open air truck, similar to the ones you frequently see on highways transporting numerous cars. Even though this approach leaves your car exposed to the elements, it's still a popular and safe service.

Enclosed Carrier Transport:

This method could be selected if you own a vintage, exotic, or premium vehicle. Using this method protects your car from outside contaminants such as dust, rain, and debris. Although covered carriers are more expensive, they offer more security, particularly for valuable or uncommon autos.

Step 3:

Mode of transportation

Your car begins its journey to the destination after it is loaded. At this point, a number of factors will affect the total transit duration, such as:

Distance:

It will take longer to ship from coast to coast than to move a car inside a state or area. Depending on the exact route, most cross-country shipments take an average of 7 to 14 days.

Conditions of the roads and weather:

Transport schedules can be affected by weather, traffic, and closures of roads. Our staff keeps in touch with drivers to follow your car and make sure it arrives within the planned timeframe.

Availability of Carriers:

Integrated delivery, in which several vehicles travel together on a single carrier, may result in a little longer overall transit time because the carrier will need to make several stops along the way.

Step Four: Delivery

We provide two main delivery alternatives after your car arrives at its destination:

Delivery from Door to Door:

Your car will be delivered straight to the address you specify using this service, whether it your house, workplace, or another destination. As there is no need to travel to a dropping off location, this is the most convenient choice.

Delivery from Terminal to Terminal:

If you would prefer, we can set up terminal delivery if delivery from door to door is not possible. At your own pace, you can pick up your vehicle from a nearby terminal. This is usually a less expensive choice, but you might have to make a drive to the terminal.

No sales tax

We don't impose sales tax on our shipping services. Our pricing is all-encompassing, ensuring you save money when shipping with us across the United States.

No extra fees

Find Car Shipping offers transparent international car shipping rates with no hidden fees. Choose between open or enclosed door-to-door transport, along with expedited shipping options. Contact us today to discuss your preferences.

Hauling at airports

If your car needs to be transported to or from an airport, our designated trucker can facilitate the pickup and drop-off at the designated airport facility. We ensure that the carrier adheres to all loading and unloading instructions meticulously. Your vehicle will be covered by the motor carrier's cargo insurance and Find Car Shipping's contingent insurance during its journey across the country. For international shipments, marine carriers will provide details about their coverage once the vehicle departs the U.S.

Loading at ports

While we currently focus on domestic car shipping, we collaborate with international carriers to fulfill your requirements, servicing all ports nationwide. When shipping internationally, please note there might be additional charges for permits related to port pickups or drop-offs.

How much does it cost to ship a car overseas?

A number of factors affect the total cost of exporting an automobile within the United States when shipping it internationally. You may select the finest shipping option for your needs by being aware about these factors and making a well-informed choice.

Distance:
Naturally, the cost of shipping an automobile a longer distance will be higher than that of a shorter one. For example, car shipping from Florida to Georgia will cost less than shipping one from California to New York.

Type of Vehicle
The size and weight of your car can significantly affect delivery prices. Larger vehicles, such as SUVs, trucks, and vans, often cost more to transport than conventional sedans.

Method of Shipping:
The least expensive alternative is open carrier transport; enclosed carrier transport is more expensive since it offers better protection.

The season:
The year round demand for automobile shipping services is typically erratic. Peak demand periods, like the summer or the weeks surrounding holidays, may see price increases.

Delivery Schedule
Faster shipping services are available for an additional fee if you need your car to arrive within a specific timeframe. Standard shipping typically takes longer but is more affordable.

Typical Documents Required to Ship Car Overseas

1 Your Keys
2 Title and Registration

We will require the following documentation to guarantee an easy shipment process:

These records are necessary to confirm the car's ownership and guarantee that it is being moved legally throughout the United States.

Picture ID:

When the car is picked up or delivered, a government-issued photo ID (such a passport or driver's license) is needed.
