The range is $1,350 to $1,550 on an open trailer. That is for an operable mid-size car over about 1,560 miles. A mid-size SUV adds about $150. A full-size pickup or three-row SUV adds about $300.

Four to five days in transit. Road days start when your pickup window closes. A loaded carrier covers roughly 300 to 400 miles in a driving day, and 1,560 miles fits comfortably in four.

No, and that is unusual. Dallas to New York is $1,350 to $1,550. New York back to Dallas is measured at $1,350 to $1,600. Same floor, and only $50 between the ceilings.

Because two opposite forces cancel out. New York is expensive to leave, which pushes the westbound price up. Dallas is cheap to leave, which pulls the eastbound price down. On this pair they roughly offset.

From our own published figures on four pages. Our New York to Dallas run is measured from real dispatch history at $1,350 to $1,600. Our Dallas to Raleigh page shows Dallas outbound at $1,025 to $1,225 against Raleigh inbound at $1,325 to $1,475.

Correct, and that is good news. On lanes with a wide gap you can save real money by shipping the cheap way. Here the price is the price, so you can book on the date that suits you.

Yes, at both, and more than on any other route we publish. Four of our six service areas sit on this lane. McKinney is at the Dallas end. The Bronx, Huntington Station and Iselin are at the New York end.

McKinney is about 30 miles north of downtown Dallas in Collin County. The Bronx and Huntington Station cover the city and Long Island. Iselin is in Middlesex County, New Jersey, about 20 miles from Manhattan.

It means we work that ground regularly and know the access. Gated communities, narrow streets, permit parking and building rules get answered quickly rather than discovered on the day.

The same $1,350 to $1,550. Fort Worth is about 1,590 miles, close enough to price identically. Arlington, Irving and Grand Prairie all sit in between.

Also $1,350 to $1,550, over about 1,540 miles. That northern arc is where our own service area sits, so access questions get answered fast.

About $1,325 to $1,525 over roughly 1,545 miles. New Jersey prices slightly under Manhattan because a carrier can reach it without working city streets. Iselin is one of our service areas.

About $1,350 to $1,550, the same as Manhattan. Both are service areas of ours, which is why we are comfortable quoting them as firmly as the city itself.

About $1,350 to $1,600 over roughly 1,585 miles, in 4 to 6 days. Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester and Rockland all price together. The extra day reflects the run out past the city.

About $1,300 to $1,500 over roughly 1,465 miles, in 4 to 5 days. It sits about 100 miles short of New York on the same corridor, so it prices just under.

About $1,450 to $1,650 over roughly 1,750 miles, in 5 to 6 days. Providence, Worcester and Hartford price with it.

About $1,200 to $1,400 over roughly 1,320 miles, in 4 to 5 days. It is the cheapest East Coast row on this page.

About $1,250 to $1,450 over roughly 1,400 miles, in 4 to 5 days. Upstate New York runs a different line from the city and prices a little under it.

Yes. Houston to New York City is about 1,630 miles at $1,400 to $1,600. Austin is about 1,750 miles at $1,450 to $1,650. Houston is also one of our six service areas.

Most drivers run Interstate 30 east out of Dallas, pick up Interstate 40 or Interstate 81 northeast, then Interstate 78 or Interstate 95 into the metro. Some route through Memphis and Virginia instead.

Our 1,500 to 2,500 mile band is $1,250 to $2,100. This route sits in the lower part of it at $1,350. Steady demand in both directions is the reason.

We ship door to door wherever the truck fits. The metroplex has wide roads and good highway access, which makes it one of the easier collections in the country. Older neighborhoods near downtown sometimes need a meeting point.

It needs a plan, and we make one. Manhattan streets and many outer-borough blocks cannot take a 75-foot carrier. We agree a wide meeting point nearby, often in Queens, the Bronx or New Jersey. It costs nothing extra.

Sometimes, at street level and by arrangement. More often we hand the car over just outside the dense grid and that is quicker for everyone. Our Bronx service area covers this daily.

Both are covered and both price the same as Manhattan. Access varies block by block, so tell us the street at booking and we will plan the handover.

We hand the car over at street level or in an open part of the lot. Parking structures have clearances a carrier cannot enter. Tell us the building name at booking.

Yes, by size and weight. The table figures cover a mid-size car. A mid-size SUV or crossover adds about $150. A full-size pickup or three-row SUV adds about $300. Roof boxes and lift kits may add more.

Enclosed costs about 80 percent more than open. On this route that is roughly $2,450 to $2,800. It suits classics, exotics and low-clearance cars. Availability is good on this corridor.

It depends on the car rather than the distance. Open transport is right for most vehicles and is the basis for every figure here. For a collector car or a fresh restoration, enclosed is worth pricing. We will quote both.

Yes, often. The carrier needs a winch and the car must roll and steer. The extra cost starts at $200 and rises with the work involved. Tell us the exact condition up front.

Carrier Cargo Insurance covers it. The policy belongs to the carrier moving your vehicle. We confirm the coverage is active before dispatch. You can ask for a copy of the certificate.

No. It goes from your address straight onto the carrier and stays there until delivery. There is no terminal and no holding lot in the middle.

Standard is 6 days. Expedited narrows it to 3 days, which is 72 hours. Dallas has deep carrier traffic, so most collections happen early in the window.

It speeds up the pickup, not the road. Expedited gets a truck assigned sooner. The 1,560 miles still take 4 to 5 days, because federal driving-hour limits apply to every truck on the interstate.

Often within a day or two. The metroplex is one of the busiest freight markets in the country. Expedited gives you the best chance of a fast assignment. Call and we will check live.

It can add a day. Ice through Arkansas, Tennessee and the Appalachians runs from December through March, and Northeast storms can hold a delivery. Carriers wait rather than take risks.

Late summer for family moves and university terms, then again in spring. Texas and the Northeast exchange people steadily all year. Booking a week or two ahead helps in the busy windows.

Wash it so damage is easy to see. Leave about a quarter tank of fuel. Remove your TollTag or E-ZPass. Fold in the mirrors and retract the antenna. Take photos from every angle.

Yes, take it out before pickup. The car will pass toll gantries while riding on a trailer, and both Texas and the Northeast have plenty. Remove it and the question disappears.

Usually yes, within reason. Keep them in the trunk and below the window line. Carrier Cargo Insurance covers the vehicle rather than your belongings. Under 100 pounds is a good guide.

Someone over 18 must be present at both ends. That person signs the inspection report. It can be a friend, a relative, a neighbor or a building superintendent. Just give us their name and number.

Very common on this route and easy to arrange. Nominate someone at each end to hand over and receive. A family member, a colleague or a doorman all work. We just need contact details.

It is the inspection report and the transport contract in one. You and the driver both sign it at pickup. It records the car's condition at collection. Sign it again at delivery and keep your copy.

A deposit books the carrier. The balance is due at delivery. Cash, certified check or money order all work with the driver. We take cards for the deposit.

Then you owe nothing and your deposit comes back in full. We would rather be straight with you than hold your money. It is rare on a corridor this busy.

Yes. You get the driver's direct number after dispatch. Call or text for a position update any time. Our office can also check for you.

No. The Smart Price Promise holds the figure we quoted. That stands as long as the vehicle, the route, the condition and the details stay the same. Change the car or the address and we requote openly.

Because not all quotes include everything. Some leave out carrier insurance or fuel. Some quote a figure no driver will accept. Ours covers door to door service, Carrier Cargo Insurance and fuel.

We publish ranges for real routes instead. A flat formula misleads people badly here. A Manhattan delivery costs more for its distance than a Dallas suburb pickup. Real route ranges are far more useful.

New York gives you 30 days after establishing residency. There is a safety and emissions inspection, and you will need New York insurance before the DMV will register the vehicle. Book the appointment early.

Yes, an annual safety inspection, with an emissions check included in most of the state. Stations do both in one visit. A newly registered vehicle needs it promptly.

Texas gives you 30 days to register, with a vehicle inspection first and both done at the county tax office. Ask us and we will quote the New York to Dallas direction for you.

Yes. SMU, TCU, UT Dallas and North Texas at one end. NYU, Columbia, Fordham, Hofstra and Stony Brook at the other. Late August and mid-May are the tightest weeks.

Yes. Mention it when you ask for a quote and we will apply it. Parking is tight at both ends, so tell us your date early.

Yes, and we offer a military discount. Naval Air Station Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base is at the Texas end. West Point and the New York installations are at the other. We stay flexible when orders shift.

Yes, at both ends. Dallas and the New York metro both run very active auction markets. Give us the stock or lot number, the site's hours and a contact name. Gate release rules vary, so details help.

Yes, and it often saves money. Two vehicles on the same truck share the trip. Tell us both at quote time. Families relocating between these metros use this a lot.

Usually a 75-foot to 80-foot open carrier. It holds seven to ten vehicles. That length is why New York delivery often needs a meeting point. We match the truck to your address.

Yes. This page prices New York, Long Island, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, Baltimore, Buffalo and Rochester. Anywhere else in the Northeast we will quote on the phone.

Yes. We arrange your move with vetted carriers from our own network. That network holds more than 16,000 transport professionals. Our own staff manage the booking start to finish.

We check authority, insurance and safety history. Every carrier must hold active cargo coverage. We review the record before they touch your car. Carriers who let customers down do not get repeat work.

Our USDOT number is 2887232. Our MC number is 969368. Both are public records you can look up on FMCSA SAFER. We are happy for you to check.

Not at present. We serve the lower 48 states only. Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico are outside our network. Anywhere in the continental U.S. is fine.

Use the form on this page or call 888-709-9078. We need both zip codes and the vehicle details. Tell us your earliest date. You will get a real range, not a placeholder.
