Shipping a Car to or from South Carolina
We ship vehicles to and from every part of South Carolina — Charleston, Columbia, North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Rock Hill and 20 more cities with dedicated pages below. Pickup and delivery are door to door, and every quote is priced off the actual road distance between your two ZIP codes rather than a zone chart. From the Charleston area, a move to Los Angeles runs about $2,883 on an open carrier and New York about $1,044.
Pickup and delivery are door to door across the state, whether that is a driveway in Charleston, a dealership lot, a storage facility or an auction yard. Carriers are 75 to 80 feet long, so on narrow streets the driver will arrange to meet you at a nearby open lot — that is normal and does not change the price. Estimates provided are for open carrier. Add $500 for enclosed.

How much does it cost to ship a car to South Carolina?
It depends on distance. Our rate is $1.00 per mile plus a $300 base for open transport, so from Charleston a move to Chicago is about $1,183 and to Miami about $870. Enclosed adds $500. Run your own ZIP codes through the calculator for the exact number.
Which cities in South Carolina do you serve?
All of them. We have detail pages for the 25 largest — Charleston, Columbia, North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Rock Hill, Greenville and more — but pickup and delivery are available at any address in the state, including rural routes and small towns.
How long does it take to ship a car to South Carolina?
Transit runs 400 to 500 miles a day once loaded, so a move from the Midwest to South Carolina is typically 2–3 days and a coast-to-coast run is 7 to 10 days. Add one to five days for the carrier to reach you at pickup.
Do you offer enclosed transport in South Carolina?
Yes, statewide. Enclosed transport puts your vehicle in a hard-sided trailer with a lift gate and soft tie-downs, and adds $500 to the open-carrier estimate on any South Carolina route.
Can you pick up from a dealership or auction in South Carolina?
Yes. Dealership, auction, body shop, storage lot and private residence pickups are all routine. For auction pickups give us the buyer number and gate pass and we will collect the vehicle inside the free storage window.
