Vehicle Transport Companies

Shop Around - Before settling on which company to use when shipping you car, it’s a good practice to contact a few businesses and get a cost estimate. Free price quotes are the industry standard and you should be cautious about working with any shipper that doesn’t offer them. Once you’ve collected a few quotes from competing companies, you’ll be able to more easily compare prices and services to find the best option. While getting a good deal is always a top priority for customers, we encourage our readers to look beyond the price and evaluate shippers based on customers service and performance history as well. Companies that offer prices that are far below those of competitors usually do so for a reason: either they have service of a lesser quality or will tack on additional fees to make up the difference.

Specialty Services - If you’re shipping a car or small truck, almost any company will be able to transport your vehicle. However, there are a handful of services that require specialization in the auto transport business. If you need any of the following options, your first priority should be to make sure it’s a service offered by the shippers you contact.

a big vehicle carrier
  • Use of storage facilities
  • Enclosed auto transport
  • Oversize & heavy duty vehicle transport
  • Off-road vehicle shipping (dirt bikes, ATVs)
  • Transport of SUVs, vans or buses
  • Express shipping & rush jobs
  • Shipping inoperable vehicles
  • Machinery & construction equipment
  • International auto shipping
  • Transport for boats and planes

Review the Contract - Once you’ve settled on a company that you’re comfortable with, it’s time to review the terms of the contract. Remember that the contract is the final word in the transport industry-any type of verbal agreement or website deals are not applicable if they are not included in the wording of the contract. Make sure the shipper gives you the contract in writing, whether that means fixing it to you or sending you a digital copy via email. It is extremely important that you carefully review all the terms and conditions to make sure that the service being provided matches with your expectations. Any questions you have about the wording, services or pricing of the shipment should be addressed before signing anything and agreeing to work with a company.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to ship a car to or from New Brunswick, NJ?

Car shipping to or from New Brunswick typically costs $400 to $1,100, depending on distance, vehicle size, carrier type, and seasonal demand. Routes along Interstate 95 and nearby metro corridors are priced lower due to carrier density. Winter snow events and summer relocation peaks can raise rates. For broader benchmarks across the state, review our New Jersey car shipping guide.

How long does car shipping take in New Brunswick, New Jersey?

Most New Brunswick car shipments take 2 to 7 days. Northeast regional routes often arrive within 2 to 4 days, while cross-country moves may take a full week. Transit time depends on pickup scheduling, traffic around Rutgers and downtown corridors, weather, and final delivery access. Expedited service can shorten timelines when carriers are immediately available.

Do car shipping companies in New Jersey offer door-to-door service in New Brunswick?

Yes, most car shipping companies in New Jersey provide door-to-door transport in New Brunswick. Carriers pick up and deliver as close as legally possible, adjusting for narrow streets, campus traffic, or parking restrictions near residential zones. If access is limited, a nearby meeting point is arranged. Learn how door-to-door auto transport works in urban areas.

Can I ship a car from New Brunswick to another state?

Yes, interstate car shipping from New Brunswick is routine. Carriers frequently move vehicles to and from New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, and the Midwest. Pricing is influenced by total mileage, route popularity, and delivery timing. Longer hauls are often cheaper per mile due to optimized routes and shared loads.

Is open or enclosed transport better for New Brunswick car shipping?

Open transport is the most common and economical option, ideal for daily vehicles. Enclosed transport offers added protection from road debris, salt exposure, and weather, making it better for luxury, classic, or low-clearance cars. Seasonal snow and rain in central New Jersey increase enclosed demand. Compare protection benefits on our enclosed auto transport page.

How do I prepare my car for shipping from New Brunswick, NJ?

Before pickup, clean the vehicle, remove personal items, leave about a quarter tank of fuel, and document existing condition with photos. Disable alarms and ensure the car rolls and brakes properly. Accurate preparation helps avoid delays and supports smooth inspection at pickup and delivery.
