Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to ship a car from Florida to Texas?

The typical cost to ship a car from Florida to Texas ranges from $700 to $900 for standard open transport. Enclosed transport runs 40–60% higher. Final prices vary by season, vehicle size, and how flexible you are on pickup and delivery dates.

How long does it take to ship a car from Florida to Texas?

Most shipments from Florida to Texas take 2 to 3 days. Timing depends on carrier availability and whether you choose door-to-door or terminal delivery.

Is open or enclosed transport better for this route?

Open transport is the standard choice — it is less expensive and widely available on this route. Enclosed transport is worth the premium for luxury, classic, or high-value vehicles since it protects against weather and road debris.

Do I need to be present at pickup and delivery?

Yes. You or an authorized person must be present to inspect the vehicle and sign the Bill of Lading at both pickup and delivery. Take dated photos before handing over the keys.

How should I prepare my car for shipping?

Remove personal belongings, leave a quarter tank of gas, photograph any existing damage, disable toll tags and parking passes, and confirm your pickup and delivery windows with your carrier a day before.
