Anybody have any idea how much it would cost to ship a car from New Jersey to Arizona? I am transfering to Arizona and I need to get my mustang out there by late August. Anybody know?
Oh man I would love to drive it but I know if I do I will get caught doing something stupid, like 120 on some long strech of highway and then I wouldnt be able to drive it anymore Plus mom wont let me, trust me, i asked.
I've had 2 vehicles shipped; one from Iowa to Virginia, the other from Oklahoma to Virginia.
You need to do some planning before you call anybody for quotes, such as: Do you want it shipped enclosed, or on an open trailer; at both departure and arrival points, is there access for an 18 wheeler, either literally right at your door, or maybe down the street; do you want door to door service, or would you be willing to take the car to a terminal for shipping, and pick it up at a terminal on the other end? Do you want the car covered, or separated from others perhaps on top of it, to ensure no fluids could leak down onto your paint? Once you make those decisions, you've already narrowed down the field a bit. From there, go to hemmings.com, and look under transport. The one thing you really want is an owner-operator which is fully insured and bonded, and does very detailed inspection reports on both ends. You do NOT want someone that brokers the deal for you, as that's setting up an insurance nightmare if anything goes wrong.
As for cost, it's a bit more than a couple hundred dollars. For a top-flight shipper, enclosed, door to door, at that distance, I'd guesstimate you're looking at $800-$900, maybe a bit more. But, for the money, comes peace of mind.
I shipped a car from Scottsdale, AZ to Albany, NY and it was $1100... So somewhere around there I'm guessing. You could drive for maybe $200-$300 in gas money.
