What is "car relocation" and who is it for?
Moving your car from one address to another with the help of professional auto carriers is known as car relocation. It's perfect for:
Job relocations and household moves (HR/corporate benefits welcome)
Military PCS transfers (discounts for active and retired personnel may be applicable)
Online buyers and sellers (private parties, auctions, and dealers)
Fleets (units for sales, maintenance, and remarketing)
In contrast to DIY (do it yourself) driving, professional transport avoids wear and tear, miles, and hotel/fuel expenses while maintaining a predictable schedule with actual ETAs.
How our car relocation service works
Step 1: Instant quote & options
For an all-inclusive price, enter the vehicle's details, dates, and route. Pick between enclosed (liftgates, soft straps, protected trailer) or open (fastest availability, best price).
Step 2: Carrier assignment
We match your job with a DOT/MC-licensed driver who has already been vetted and is operating in your lane.
Step 3: Pickup coordination
Your driver confirms access by texting or calling. We set up a nearby, truck-friendly meeting place if a big rig can't safely reach your street due to narrow roads or HOA/municipal limits.
Step 4: On the road
Depending on routing and stops, long-haul carriers usually travel between 500 and 700 miles per day; we provide ETA updates as they go.
Step 5 — Delivery & sign-off
Examine the area on foot, make a note on the Bill of Lading (BOL), compare it to the pickup photos, and sign.
Open vs. Enclosed: which should I choose?
Open transport
Most widely accessible and reasonably priced, ideal for trucks, SUVs, and daily drivers.
See open transport
Enclosed transport
Superior protection (liftgates, soft straps, trailers with hard or soft sides). Because there are fewer trucks and specialized handling, expect higher pricing than with open.
See enclosed transportHow long will car relocation take?
Timing following pickup is influenced by demand, weather, routing, and distance:
500-1,000 miles: roughly two to four days
1,000-1,800 miles: roughly three to six days
Over 2,000 miles (cross-country) in 5-8 days
These bands result from loading/unloading time plus the average carrier progress of 500-700 miles per day.
