Using Elkhart Vehicle Transport Companies
Hawaii & Alaska - Not all vehicle shipping companies are equipped to move a car outside of the continental United States. Since cars sent to Hawaii or Alaska must be transported by boat, it is considered something of a specialized service, similar to shipping a car to another country. Vehicles that are transported to either location can be shipped in a few different ways. The most common is called “RORO” transport, which stands for “roll on, roll of.” With RORO shipping, the vehicle is driven onto the transport ship and secured for travel, then driven off the boat upon arrival. The other popular method is called containerized car shipping. Twenty-foot containers are widely used in the shipping industry and can be perfect if you need to transport a car along with other items like personal belongings or furniture.

Seasonal Auto Transport - Many of our customers are seasonal travelers that want to take their car, camper or RV with them, but don’t want to put a lot of miles on the vehicle. For those living in colder climates, hiring an auto shipper is an especially good option since winter months create rougher driving conditions and can potentially cause mechanical issues. If there’s any danger of heavy snowfall or hail, an enclosed transport carrier is the best option to completely protect your car from the elements. Some car shippers, including this one, offer discounts to seasonal travelers and snowbirds, especially if they need roundtrip auto transport and book both ends at the same time.

Military POV Transport - We move hundreds of cars annually for members of the armed services and proudly offer discounts to those in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard. Many of our military customers seek out our services because they’ve received a PCS order that sends them across the country or overseas. Because of the requirements and paperwork involved, it’s best to work only with a company that has ample experience in moving cars for the military.
(Important note: The government will pay for the shipment of a single vehicle under certain circumstances, but there are restrictions on the type of vehicle, weight, modifications, and time limits for shipping.)
