Auto Transport in Charlotte
Charlotte is the largest city in North Carolina with a population of about 943,476, and we run vehicles in and out of it year round.

For overseas moves, Port of Savannah is roughly 252 miles away and handles both roll-on/roll-off and container bookings.
Every quote we give for Charlotte is calculated the same way: the estimated road distance between your pickup ZIP and your delivery ZIP, at $1 per mile, plus a $300 base fee. That price covers door-to-door pickup and delivery, carrier dispatch and insurance verification. Estimates provided are for open carrier. Add $500 for enclosed.

Pickup and delivery
Auto carriers run 75 to 80 feet long. On most Charlotte streets the driver can come to the address directly. Where a street is too narrow, has low branches or sits inside a gated community, the driver will call ahead and arrange to meet you at a nearby shopping centre or open lot. That is standard practice and it does not change what you pay.
Shipping overseas from Charlotte
For international moves, Port of Savannah is about 252 miles from Charlotte. We handle the domestic leg to the port and coordinate roll-on/roll-off or container booking from there. Customs filing has to be submitted at least 72 hours before the vessel sails, so start earlier than you think. More on international shipping →

What Customers Say
Used them for our seasonal move to Florida two years running. Booked three weeks out both times, car showed up clean and on schedule. The dispatcher actually answers the phone, which is more than I can say for the big brokers.
Enclosed transport for a 1969 Camaro. Lift gate, soft straps, driver knew what he was doing and sent photos at pickup. Worth the extra $500 for a car I have had for 30 years.
My daughter needed her car at school in Texas and I was not driving it down. Quote took ten seconds on the website, booked the same day, delivered to her apartment complex four days later.
