Using Hauling Companies
- Licensed & Insured - These are two important designations for any company that moves vehicles, usually found in the popular industry phrase, “licensed, bonded & insured.” While being bonded is important as a consumer protection, licensing and insurance are what directly impact your ability to get compensated for any damages. You can look up companies at the FMCSA website by using their Motor Carrier License number, or MC#.
- RV Shipping - Yes, some companies can, even more, your RV! This is a service that is popular among seasonal travelers and snowbirds since it allows the freedom of regional travel without having to drive your RV to your destination. Not every company will offer this service so you should look for one that has experience moving RVs, fifth wheels and oversize vehicles.
- Call Companies - The hauling industry tends to offer free quotes online for customers that want an idea of the cost of moving a car, but this should only be the first step. Once you’ve narrowed down the field to a few companies that offer the service you want at a reasonable price, pick up the phone and give them a call to verify details and ask questions. Not only will this clarify the process and the type of haulers you need, it will give you an idea of their customer service and overall professionalism.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Bloomington MN?
Shipping a vehicle to or from Bloomington MN typically costs between $600 and $1,200 for most domestic routes. Pricing is driven by distance, vehicle size, open vs enclosed transport, seasonality, and pickup timing. Bloomington’s proximity to Minneapolis and major corridors like I-35 helps keep pricing competitive. For statewide comparisons and typical rate ranges, see our Minnesota car shipping overview.
How long does car shipping take from Bloomington Minnesota?
Most Bloomington MN car shipments take 2 to 7 days after carrier pickup. Midwest regional routes are often faster, while coast-to-coast shipments can reach 7 to 10 days. Timing depends on distance, carrier availability, weather, and route density. Bloomington benefits from frequent carrier traffic due to nearby metro demand, which often shortens scheduling windows compared to rural Minnesota locations.
Do you offer door to door car shipping in Bloomington MN?
Yes, door to door car shipping is available throughout Bloomington MN and surrounding suburbs. The carrier picks up and delivers as close to your address as legally and safely possible, adjusting for local parking rules, low-clearance streets, or winter access issues. This option reduces handling and transit delays. Learn how this works in detail through our door to door auto transport service.
Can car dealerships in Bloomington MN ship vehicles out of state?
Bloomington MN car dealerships frequently ship vehicles nationwide for retail buyers, auctions, and dealer transfers. Multi-vehicle loads, flexible pickup windows, and repeat routes often lower per-car costs. Transport type, dealer lot access, and vehicle condition all affect scheduling. Many dealers choose professional auto transport over driving to reduce mileage, liability, and delivery delays during peak sales seasons.
Is enclosed auto transport available in Bloomington MN?
Enclosed auto transport is available for Bloomington MN customers shipping luxury, classic, exotic, or low-clearance vehicles. Enclosed carriers protect against road debris, weather, and winter salt exposure, which is especially valuable in Minnesota. Costs usually run 30–50 percent higher than open transport due to limited capacity and added protection. See benefits and use cases on our enclosed auto transport page.
What should I do to prepare my car for shipping from Bloomington MN?
Before shipping from Bloomington MN, wash the vehicle, document existing condition, remove personal items, and leave about one quarter tank of fuel. Disable alarms and ensure the car starts and rolls freely. Winter shipments may require clearing snow or ice before pickup. Proper preparation reduces delays and helps ensure a smooth inspection and handoff on pickup day.
