Nationwide Auto Transport

Ship A Car ASAP provides nationwide auto transport across all 50 states. We coordinate both regional and cross-country vehicle shipments for individuals, dealerships, auctions, and businesses.

Transit times vary based on distance, route demand, weather, and carrier availability. Regional shipments typically move faster than coast-to-coast routes. When you request a quote, we evaluate the route and vehicle details to determine the appropriate carrier equipment and expected timing.

Door-to-Door Auto Transport

Door-to-door auto transport means your vehicle is picked up and delivered as close to your requested addresses as a carrier can safely and legally access. This is the most common shipping method in the United States.

Some locations may require a nearby meeting point due to access restrictions such as low bridges, narrow streets, weight limits, HOA rules, or local ordinances. If an adjustment is needed, we coordinate a convenient nearby location for both the customer and the driver.

Door-to-door service is used for relocations, seasonal moves, online vehicle purchases, dealership transfers, and business logistics. Open and enclosed options are available depending on the level of protection requested.

Enclosed Auto Transport

Enclosed auto transport is recommended for vehicles that require additional protection from weather, road debris, and exposure during transit. Vehicles are shipped inside fully enclosed trailers. This option is commonly selected for luxury, exotic, classic, collector, and high-value vehicles.

Enclosed transport typically costs more than open transport due to limited trailer capacity and specialized equipment requirements.

Common reasons customers choose enclosed transport

• Protection: Reduced exposure to weather and road debris.
• High-value vehicles: Often selected for luxury, classic, collector, and exotic vehicles.
• Privacy: Vehicles are less visible during transit.
• Special handling: May be used for low-clearance or specialty vehicles depending on equipment.

Non-Running & Inoperable Vehicles

Non-running or inoperable vehicles can be shipped if they can roll, brake, and steer. These vehicles cannot be driven on and off the trailer under their own power, so specialized loading equipment may be required.

Inoperable vehicles may include a dead battery, flat tire, transmission issues, missing keys, or other mechanical problems. It is important to disclose the vehicle’s condition in advance so the proper equipment and carrier can be assigned. Additional charges may apply depending on condition, accessibility, and loading requirements.

Non-running vehicle shipping options

• Specialized loading: Winches, forklifts, or other equipment when needed.
• Open or enclosed: Choose the level of protection required.
• Door-to-door coordination: Pickup and delivery as close to addresses as equipment allows.

Car Auction Transport

We coordinate transport for vehicles purchased through major auctions and dealer-only auctions. Auction shipments often have strict removal timelines, and storage fees may apply if a vehicle is not picked up within the auction’s required timeframe.

What we coordinate for auction shipments

• Pickup scheduling: Coordinating pickup windows and facility requirements, when applicable.
• Timed removal: Prioritizing pickup planning to help reduce the risk of storage fees.
• Nationwide delivery: Shipping from auction locations to destinations across the United States.

Examples of common timelines (varies by location)

• Manheim: commonly 3 days
• Copart: commonly 5 days
• IAA: commonly 4 days
• Other auctions: timelines vary by facility

When requesting a quote, provide the auction name and location so we can account for timelines and pickup requirements.

Dealer Services

Ship A Car ASAP coordinates transport services for dealerships, including inventory moves, dealer trades, auction purchases, and out-of-state deliveries. Shipping allows dealerships to relocate inventory without adding mileage and helps move vehicles between locations efficiently.

Common dealer transport needs

• Dealer trades: Moving vehicles between dealerships.
• Inventory relocation: Transferring units between store locations.
• Auction logistics: Coordinating auction pickups and deliveries.
• Out-of-state deliveries: Supporting retail sales that require delivery to another state.
• Single and multi-vehicle moves: Coordinating shipments based on volume and route.

For dealer and repeat-lane needs, provide pickup and delivery locations, vehicle list, and preferred timing so we can coordinate the appropriate carrier and equipment.
