Transit is about 3 days door to door once your car is on the truck, covering roughly 1,370 miles. Pickup usually happens one to three business days after booking, so plan on five to seven days total from booking to delivery. Expedited pickup is available for a fee.

Southbound builds through September and runs hot from mid-October into December. Expect 15% to 25% over baseline in the peak weeks. The cheapest southbound window is May through July, when carrier supply outruns demand on the whole corridor. Booking seven to ten days ahead rather than same-week consistently saves another 5% to 10%.

It affects scheduling more than price. Lake-effect snow can push a pickup window out by a day or two between December and March, because carriers will not commit to a loading appointment they cannot reach. Transit south of Pennsylvania is unaffected. Booking seven to ten days out gives the dispatcher room to work around a storm.

Yes. Enclosed transport runs $2,090 to $2,550 on this lane and is the right call for classics, exotics, and anything worth $75K or more. Enclosed trailers keep off weather, road debris, and attention. We match soft-tie carriers to low-clearance show cars and hard-tie carriers to everything else.

Door-to-door pickup and delivery, $250K minimum in carrier cargo insurance, live GPS tracking from pickup through delivery, and direct contact with the driver and dispatcher. No fuel surcharges, no booking fees, no hidden insurance line. The quoted price is the price you pay.
