The range is $1,700 to $1,850 on an open trailer. That is for an operable mid-size car. Kissimmee prices the same. A mid-size SUV adds about $150. A full-size pickup or three-row SUV adds about $300.

Eight to nine days in transit. It is about 3,100 miles. A loaded carrier covers roughly 300 to 400 miles in a driving day. Road days start when your pickup window closes.

Because there is no single road. Seattle to Los Angeles is one interstate the whole way. This is a diagonal across the country. Drivers piece it together from several routes. That is the honest reason behind eight to nine days.

Two common shapes. Some run west along the Gulf and then north up the coast. Others head north first and cross the middle of the country. The driver picks the one with the best load for that week. Either way the transit range holds.

Yes, and only one other lane we publish can say that. Kissimmee is a staffed office at 2095 E Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy on 407-377-6073. Lakewood is a staffed office at 5607 Boston Ave SW on 253-200-5645. Call whichever end is closer to you.

Because someone local answers at each end. On most long routes one end is ours and the far end is the carrier alone. Here both ends are staffed by our own people. That makes collection and delivery easier to coordinate.

Leaving is cheaper, and we publish both numbers. Kissimmee to Lakewood is $1,700 to $1,850. Lakewood back to Kissimmee is $1,850 to $2,000. Same road, about $150 apart.

Because Florida pulls cars in. Snowbirds and relocations fill trucks heading south. Those trucks then need loads going back out. That competition works in your favor leaving Florida.

It widens in the fall and narrows in the spring. October to December is the heaviest southbound season. March to May is the heaviest northbound one. Booking a week or two ahead helps in both windows.

Our over-2,500-mile band is $1,600 to $2,500. This lane sits near the bottom of it at $1,700. That is a good result for 3,100 miles. Volume on the route is the reason.

Yes. Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue and Everett all price the same as Lakewood. Seattle street access sometimes needs a meeting point. We agree that at booking rather than at the curb.

Yes. Spokane is about 2,900 miles from Orlando. It prices in the same range at $1,700 to $1,850. The Tri-Cities and Yakima work too. Tell us the zip code and we will confirm.

Yes, both. Portland is about 3,050 miles and Vancouver WA about 3,060. Both price at $1,700 to $1,850. They sit on the same carrier line as Lakewood.

Yes, and it is our own back yard. Our Kissimmee office is on East Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway. Celebration, Davenport, St. Cloud and Four Corners are all routine. Many of those are gated, so tell us the community name.

All covered and all straightforward. Winter Park, Maitland, Altamonte Springs, Lake Mary and Sanford sit near Interstate 4. Access is easy for a full carrier. They price the same as Orlando.

Yes. Lakeland is about 3,060 miles from Seattle and runs slightly less at $1,675 to $1,825. Winter Haven and Haines City work too. It is a short leg for the driver before he gets on his line.

We ship door to door wherever the truck fits. Most of Central Florida has wide roads and good access. Gated communities and narrow cul-de-sacs sometimes need a nearby meeting point. That costs nothing extra.

Very common here and easy to plan for. Some communities will not admit a 75-foot carrier at all. We meet you just outside the gate instead. Give us the community name at booking and we will sort it.

Sometimes, and we plan for it. Parts of Seattle are steep and narrow with cars parked both sides. A wide arterial or a store lot nearby works well. The driver calls ahead to agree the spot.

Yes, and it comes up often. Lakewood, University Place and Steilacoom have several. Same approach as Florida: we meet just outside if the gate is tight. Our Lakewood staff know most of them.

Yes, and our Lakewood office sits minutes from JBLM. We move vehicles for service members and their families constantly. Orders shift, so we stay flexible on dates. Tell us your report date and we work backwards.

Naval Base Kitsap, Naval Station Everett and NAS Whidbey Island. All price in the same range as Lakewood. Base access rules vary, so we confirm the gate and contact before the driver arrives.

Yes. We offer one for service members and their families. Mention it when you ask for a quote. We will apply it to the figure we give you.

Yes. Central Florida and the Puget Sound both have large universities. Late August and mid-May are the tightest weeks. Book early in those windows and we will have more choice of truck.

It is one of our steadier seasonal lanes. Many customers keep a car in Florida for the winter. They ship it north in spring and south in fall. Booking both legs together helps if your dates are settled.

Yes, and we recommend it when the dates are known. It locks the price on both legs. The outbound is $1,700 to $1,850 and the return $1,850 to $2,000. We will put both on one booking.

Usually yes. It needs to roll, steer and brake to load normally. A flat battery or soft tires are easy to sort first. If it will not start, tell us and we will send a winch truck instead.

We can still move it. 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.

Enclosed costs about 80 percent more than open. On this lane that is roughly $3,050 to $3,350. It suits classics, exotics and low-clearance cars. Availability is good from Central Florida.

It depends on the car. Open transport is right for most vehicles and is the basis for every figure here. For a collector car covering 3,100 miles, enclosed is worth pricing. We will quote both and let you choose.

It can affect the Florida pickup rather than the transit. The season runs June through November. Carriers pause rather than load in a storm. We keep you posted and re-dispatch quickly afterwards.

It can add a day. Mountain passes on the inland routes see snow from December through March. Drivers wait out bad conditions rather than take risks. Your car's safety comes first.

Standard is 6 days. Expedited narrows it to 3 days, which is 72 hours. Central Florida has heavy 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 3,100 miles still take eight to nine days. Federal driving-hour limits apply to every truck on the interstate.

Often within a day or two. Volume out of Central Florida is high year round. Expedited gives you the best chance of a fast assignment. Call and we will check live availability.

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. It stays on that trailer until delivery. There is no terminal and no holding lot in the middle.

Wash it so damage is easy to see. Leave about a quarter tank of fuel. Remove the SunPass or toll transponder. 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 on a trailer. A transponder in the windshield can register charges. Remove it and you avoid the whole question.

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 or a neighbor. Just give us their name and number.

That is common on this route and easy to arrange. Nominate someone at each end to hand over and receive. Many customers use a family member or a property manager. 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 when it was collected. 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 lane this busy.

Yes. You get the driver's direct number after dispatch. Call or text for a position update any time. Either 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. A diagonal like this costs more for its distance than an easy straight interstate run. Real route ranges are far more useful.

Washington gives you 30 days to register after you move. There is no emissions testing program in the state. It ended at the start of 2020. So the arrival paperwork is lighter than in most states.

No. Washington ended its emissions testing program at the beginning of 2020. That is one errand you can forget about. It makes arriving here easier than arriving in California.

Florida gives you 10 days to register the vehicle and 30 days for a license. There is no state emissions test. Proof of Florida insurance is the part people forget. Sort that before the car lands.

Yes. We collect from dealers, auctions and repair shops at both ends. Give us the stock or lot number. We also need 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 across the country use this a lot.

Usually a 75-foot to 80-foot open carrier. It holds seven to ten vehicles. That length is why gated communities and narrow streets need a plan. We match the truck to your address.

Motorcycles yes, on the right equipment. Boats and trailers are outside what we handle. Tell us what you have and we will say plainly whether we can move it.

Yes. We arrange your move with vetted carriers from our own network. That network holds more than 16,000 transport professionals. Our 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.

Call whichever end is closer. Kissimmee is 407-377-6073 and Lakewood is 253-200-5645. The national line is 888-709-9078. You will speak to a person either way.

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.
