Ship your car to your new home

Moving across the state or across the country? Coordinate your car’s transportation separately — through licensed and insured carriers — while you focus on the move.

More than packing boxes

Moving to a new home often involves more than packing and arranging transportation for your household belongings. If you’re relocating to another city or across the country, getting your vehicle to the new destination is another important part of the process.

Driving it yourself may seem simplest, but a long-distance move can mean hundreds or even thousands of miles on the road — plus fuel, accommodation, meals, tolls, and time away from other moving responsibilities. Vehicle shipping lets you coordinate your car’s transportation separately while you focus on the relocation.

Nationwide coverage

KA MegaTrans coordinates vehicle transportation through a network of licensed and insured carriers, helping individuals and families move to a new home.

Why ship your car when relocating?

The decision usually comes down to distance, convenience, and personal circumstances. For a short move, driving may be practical. Across several states, long hours behind the wheel, overnight stops, fuel expenses, and extra mileage can make driving less convenient than expected.

A professional carrier handles the drive

For households with multiple vehicles, arranging transportation for one or more cars avoids coordinating several long-distance drives and simplifies the whole move.

Planning your shipment around your moving date

Timing is one of the most important parts of relocation shipping. Your pickup and delivery schedule should be planned alongside your moving date, travel arrangements, and expected arrival at the new home. Start early rather than waiting until the last few days — it gives our team more time to review the route, check carrier availability, and coordinate a suitable pickup window.

Plan early

Pickup window

The time needed to arrange collection after booking.

Transit time

Begins once the carrier has picked up your vehicle.

Need it by a certain date?

Delivery estimates depend on distance, traffic, weather, road conditions, and the carrier’s schedule. Share your preferred dates when requesting a quote.

Choosing between open and enclosed transport

Open transport

The most common method — your vehicle rides on an open-air carrier alongside others. Generally more economical and suitable for most standard cars, SUVs, and pickups.

Enclosed transport

A covered trailer adds protection from weather and road exposure. Often selected for luxury, classic, exotic, and collectible vehicles.

Check the fit

Enclosed trailers have strict interior dimensions. Lifted trucks, oversized SUVs, and some modified vehicles may not fit — actual measurements should be checked first.

Can you ship more than one vehicle?

Yes. If your household has multiple vehicles, you can request transportation for more than one at the same time — one booking request is easier to manage.

Whether the vehicles travel together depends on carrier capacity, route availability, vehicle dimensions, and scheduling. When requesting a quote, include each vehicle’s year, make, model, operating condition, and any modifications.

What should you prepare before moving?

Remove or secure personal belongings

Check the vehicle’s condition

Take photographs from every side

Prepare keys and operating instructions

Personal belongings are generally permitted up to 100 lbs, secured in the trunk or below the window line. Additional charges may apply above this allowance. Remove valuables, important documents, cash, and irreplaceable possessions.

Tell your agent about special requirements

Mechanical issues, aftermarket modifications, or oversized tires can change the carrier and equipment needed — share them before dispatch.

At pickup, the driver inspects the vehicle and records its visible condition on the Bill of Lading (BOL). Review it carefully before signing and keep a copy.

What does vehicle shipping cost during a relocation?

There is no single fixed price. Transportation cost depends on:

Distance

Route

Vehicle size & weight

Operating condition

Transport method

Carrier availability

Pickup & delivery access

Longer distances increase the total cost, though the cost per mile may decrease. Popular corridors often have more carrier availability than remote locations. Modified, oversized, or inoperable vehicles may need extra equipment, and enclosed transport typically costs more than open.

The best way to understand your cost is to request a quote with your actual pickup and delivery addresses and accurate vehicle information.
