Should You Ship Your Car When Moving?
Shipping your vehicle can simplify a long-distance move by eliminating the need to drive it hundreds or thousands of miles to your new home. Instead, a professional auto carrier picks up the vehicle and transports it to an agreed location near your destination while you travel separately.
For families moving with multiple vehicles, young children, pets, moving trucks, or complicated travel plans, professional car shipping can remove an entire piece of the relocation process. It can also help avoid adding unnecessary mileage, fuel costs, hotel stays, meals, and additional wear to your vehicle during a long-distance move.
When Car Shipping Makes Sense During a Move
Professional vehicle transportation can be especially useful when you’re moving several states away or across the country. Families often choose to ship a vehicle when they have more cars than available drivers, are flying to their new home, are already driving a rental or moving truck, or simply don’t want to turn their relocation into a multi-day road trip.
Car shipping can also make sense when coordinating a corporate relocation, moving for a new job, relocating closer to family, purchasing a new home out of state, retiring to another part of the country, or managing different departure and arrival dates between family members.
Coordinating Car Shipping With Your Moving Schedule
Your household belongings and your vehicle don’t necessarily need to follow the same schedule. Auto transport pickup and delivery windows can be coordinated around your anticipated moving dates, allowing you to plan how and when the vehicle fits into the larger relocation.
If you need your vehicle immediately after arriving, scheduling transportation early can provide greater flexibility. In other situations, customers may choose to have their vehicle picked up before they leave or delivered after they’ve had time to settle into their new home.
Crestline’s team can discuss your moving timeline, pickup location, destination, and travel plans to help determine the transportation approach that makes the most sense for your relocation.

- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Car Shipping for Moving FAQs
Is it better to ship or drive my car when moving?
It depends on the distance, your moving schedule, number of vehicles, travel preferences, and budget. Driving may make sense for shorter relocations, while shipping can be especially convenient for long-distance moves where you want to avoid additional mileage, travel days, hotels, fuel, and wear on the vehicle.
How far in advance should I schedule car shipping for a move?
It’s best to begin arranging transportation once your moving dates and destination are reasonably established. Scheduling early generally provides more flexibility around your preferred pickup window, particularly during busy moving seasons and on high-demand routes.
Can Crestline ship multiple cars for my family?
Yes. Crestline can coordinate transportation for multiple household vehicles. This can be particularly useful when a family owns more vehicles than it has available drivers or when everyone plans to travel together to the new home.
Can my car be picked up at my old house and delivered to my new house?
Crestline provides door-to-door auto transport whenever the locations are safely and legally accessible to the carrier. If a residential street, neighborhood, or other location cannot accommodate a large transport truck, pickup or delivery can usually be coordinated at a nearby accessible location.
Can I put moving boxes and personal belongings in my car while it is being shipped?
Auto carriers are primarily transporting your vehicle, not household goods. Personal-item restrictions can vary based on the carrier and transportation requirements, so you should discuss any items you intend to leave inside the vehicle with Crestline before pickup rather than assuming they can be transported.
