How to move a car cross country

Last updated 2026-07-10 · MovePlan Editorial Team

Learning how to move a car cross country comes down to driving it or shipping it. Auto transport saves wear and time, while driving saves money if you have the days.

Step: Decide between driving it or using auto transport
Step: Get several quotes from licensed car shippers
Step: Verify the carrier on the FMCSA website
Step: Choose open or enclosed transport based on the vehicle
Step: Photograph the car and note existing damage before pickup
Step: Remove valuables and personal items from the car
Step: Confirm pickup and delivery windows in writing
Step: Inspect the car against your photos on delivery

Shipping or driving a vehicle long distance.

When: Book auto transport 2 to 4 weeks before the move.

Watch out: Do not hand over a car without a written inspection report; without it, you have no proof of damage that happens in transit.
