What Is the Least Expensive Car Transport method?
The open-air carrier method is one of the most cost-effective interstate shipping methods. By employing this shipping method, you can stay within your budget while still having your vehicle delivered safely and on time. It is less expensive since we transport multiple cars on the same trailer, as opposed to the enclosed technique, which transports just one car at a time. The enclosed option is more expensive if you want to restrict your exposure to natural elements and dust.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Maryland to Ohio car shipping usually cost?
Most Maryland to Ohio shipments fall between $500–$900, depending on distance, vehicle size, carrier type, and seasonal demand. Shorter routes toward northern Ohio often price at the lower end, while oversized vehicles or enclosed carriers trend higher. Using a national carrier with consistent Midwest lanes helps stabilize rates, especially during winter slowdowns. For deeper pricing ranges and cost factors, review our car shipping rates.
How long does it take to ship a car from Maryland to Ohio?
Transit time is typically 2–4 days. Carriers frequently run I-70 and I-76 corridors, which keeps delivery windows predictable. Delays are most common during peak moves (May–August) and during snow events around the Appalachian region. Pickup timing adds 1–2 days depending on truck availability and whether you request standard or expedited options.
Is open or enclosed transport better for Maryland to Ohio routes?
Open carriers work for most vehicles and offer the best value. Enclosed transport is recommended for luxury, collectible, or low-clearance vehicles because it provides added protection and gentler loading. Weather along the I-70 corridor can be unpredictable in winter, so some owners choose enclosed during that season. Learn more about premium protection options in our enclosed guide.
Do I need to prepare my vehicle in any special way before Maryland to Ohio shipping?
Yes. Carriers typically require a quarter tank of fuel, removed personal items, and accessible keys. A quick inspection of tire pressure, battery charge, and cosmetic marks helps streamline pickup. In winter, ensure your antifreeze and battery are in good condition since trucks may stage vehicles outdoors before loading.
Can I ship an inoperable vehicle from Maryland to Ohio?
Yes, but it requires a truck equipped with a winch. Rates for inoperable vehicles are typically $100–$150 higher because loading takes longer and requires specialized equipment. When requesting a quote, note whether the vehicle rolls, steers, and brakes, as this determines appropriate loading support. Additional details are available in our inoperable auto transport guidelines.
