Areas We Cover

We can deliver vehicles to any part of the town from anywhere in America. We have extensive networks running through every state in the U.S. and major global destinations.

Services We Offer:

We will give you the best options at the most affordable rates using the most convenient shipping option:

  • The RoRo ships offer one of the cheapest moving solutions since the car will take up a small fraction of the space on the transport vessel. Loading and unloading happen by driving or wheeling them on the ship.
  • Containerized hauling offers better safety and convenience. High-end classics and vintage cars get extra protection from potential damage. You will also get extra room to keep personal and household goods as part of the cargo.

Open-air transport has the lowest costs for shipping cars to or from Paradise. Just make sure that you get a multi-car rig for the long haul across the country. It also offers one of the quickest pick-up and delivery solutions.

You might have to consider raising your budget and opt for the enclosed shifting option when you have a highly expensive vehicle. Our trucks will offer protection from the elements in addition to other advanced features that help to improve safety during handling and relocation.

You can choose to collect or deliver the vehicle for transportation in any of the following ways:

  • Terminal shipping involves dropping off and picking up the car from an appointed hauling depot in your state by auto movers.
  • Door-to-door shipping sends us to do all the running, from fetching it to having it delivered at your residence.

Types Of Vehicles We Relocate

Whether you have a vehicle that rolls on wheels, floats on water, or glides on the ice, we have shifting solutions that meet your moving needs. Some of the automobiles covered include:

  • Standard and high-end luxury cars
  • Trucks and SUVs
  • Vans and earth moving equipment
  • Boats and yachts
  • Golf carts and snowmobiles
  • ATVs and motorcycles
  • RVs and motorhomes
  • POVs for members of the military

How to prepare a car for moving?

Here are important steps to take before having your car shipped:

  • Give the vehicle a thorough wash.
  • Make a record of the pre-existing damage and take dated photographs as well.
  • Remove personal items, household goods, and other valuables from the car.
  • Remove all the non-permanent accessories from inside the vehicle, especially where the insurance package does not offer protection.
  • Use a protective cover on the loose parts on the exterior and get the detachable one removed so that they don't suffer damage during the handling process.
  • You need to leave a little fuel in the gas tank so that the relocator can drive the vehicle when loading/unloading. Avoid keeping too much because it will only add unnecessary weight to the car.
  • Keep the tires well inflated, the battery fully charged, and the fluids topped off.
  • Disable the alarm system to keep it from causing unnecessary interruptions during the trip.
  • If you have toll tags, and parking passes inside the vehicle, get them deactivated or removed to prevent the vehicle from running unnecessary charges while traveling on the truck.
  • You should let the driver know of any mechanical problems and oddities using a special note.
  • Prepare a spare set of keys that you will give to the driver at the collection.
  • Prepare the paperwork and check the local DOT for other regulations on shipping cars to or from Paradise.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does car shipping cost from Paradise, CA?

As of August 18, 2026, Paradise, CA car shipping on open transport runs about $500-$900 regionally, $800-$1,300 for medium-distance moves, and $1,200-$1,800 cross-country. These bands assume a standard running passenger vehicle; larger vehicles, enclosed service, inoperable loading, and difficult pickup access can raise the quote. Distance sets the baseline, while demand on the exact lane also matters. A1's car shipping rates guide explains the main quote inputs.

How long does Paradise car shipping take?

Paradise car shipping usually takes 1-3 loaded transit days regionally, 3-7 days on medium-distance routes, and 7-10 days cross-country. Loaded transit begins after the vehicle is on the truck; standard pickup scheduling can add about 1-5 days beforehand, depending on the lane and carrier availability. Weather, required stops, and rerouting can extend longer trips. Treat the delivery date as an estimate until the driver confirms the final appointment.

Is enclosed auto transport recommended in Paradise, CA?

Enclosed auto transport is a good fit for Paradise shipments involving classic, exotic, luxury, restored, or low-clearance vehicles when exterior protection matters most. Covered trailers reduce exposure to weather, dust, and road debris, while open transport is usually the lower-cost choice for ordinary daily drivers. Enclosed carriers also have less available capacity, so matching can take longer on lower-volume lanes. A1's enclosed auto transport page explains the equipment and protection differences.

Can you ship a car to or from Paradise if it does not run?

Yes, a non-running car can be shipped to or from Paradise if its condition is disclosed before the carrier is assigned. Tell the dispatcher whether the vehicle rolls, steers, brakes, has four usable wheels, and can be reached by loading equipment. A winch-equipped trailer can handle many inoperable vehicles; cars that cannot roll or are badly damaged may need a forklift, flatbed, or another specialized setup. Accurate condition details help the driver arrive with equipment that can load the vehicle safely.

Do you offer door-to-door car shipping in Paradise, CA?

Yes, door-to-door car shipping is available in Paradise when the carrier has clear, safe access to the pickup or delivery street. Paradise planning documents identify Skyway, Clark Road/State Route 191, Neal Road, and Pentz Road as southern approaches, with Old Skyway serving the north; they also describe the town as lying between steep canyon systems. A1's door-to-door auto transport service may use a nearby wider meeting point when the exact street cannot safely accommodate a large carrier.

Can I track my car shipment to or from Paradise, CA?

Yes, you can track a Paradise car shipment after pickup using the shipment details provided through A1's tracking process. A1's car shipping tracker accepts a VIN or booking ID for shipment status, route progress, and estimated delivery information. Update frequency can vary because some carriers provide live or near-real-time GPS while others use dispatch or driver checkpoints. Keep your booking number handy and contact the transport coordinator if an update is delayed or the delivery appointment changes.

Frederick Henderson
Tracked it the whole way
★★★★★

I shipped my new KIA Carnival out to Paradise and it went pretty smoothly. Pickup happened within a day or so, and I even switched from enclosed to open carrier without much trouble. I kept checking it app a few times a day and could see exactly where it was, which was pretty cool. The driver reached out the day before delivery, and it showed up in the same condition as when it left.

Amanda Morrow
Super helpful the whole time
★★★★★

They were really professional and just easy to deal with from start to finish. I had a lot of questions and they never seemed bothered, always answered clearly which helped me relax about the whole car shipping process. Once I booked, everything kind of just fell into place without any issues. Pickup was right on time and it got delivered quicker than I expected, in perfect shape.

Greg Edward
Updates made a difference
★★★★★

First time using a shipping company and I was honestly impressed. Lisa was great, friendly and stayed helpful the entire time, especially with keeping me updated as my date got closer. I’ve used other transport services before and never got that level of communication. It gave me time to get everything ready instead of rushing last minute.

Brian Redford
Everything lined up perfectly
★★★★★

From the start, things just went how they said they would. I spent a lot of time comparing options before choosing them, mostly because of pricing and how they communicated. They stuck to their quote and even came in lower than others I checked. The carrier team was easy to work with, showed up early for pickup and delivery too. Vehicle arrived in perfect condition, no issues at all.
