Moving to Delaware? Ship Your Car with Number 1 Auto Transport

When You’re The First State, you don’t settle for second-best in car transport. The Number One state wants the Number 1 Auto Transport company.

Delaware is a tiny state – only Rhode Island is smaller – and even at its widest point, it is only 35 miles across. With the tallest point of only 447.85 feet, it’s also one of the flattest states. That being said, plenty is going on inside the state.

  • First, 0ver 50% of all U.S. publicly traded companies, and 63% of the Fortune 500 companies, are incorporated in Delaware. Why? Because Delaware has the most business-friendly corporation laws in America.
  • There are more corporations than people in Delaware! In 2018, there were over one million corporations, according to the Division of Corporations, but the estimated population was only 967,000.
  • Also, Delaware ranks 9th in millionaires per capita – one in 15 residents is worth one million or more.
  • Finally, much of this is because Delaware is considered the Chemical Capital of the World. DowDuPont, number 35 on the Fortune 500 List of the largest United States public corporations, is headquartered in Wilmington. Also, AstraZeneca, Syngenta, Agilent Technologies, and more have a large presence in the state.


There’s plenty to enjoy in Delaware as well – no one wants to be all work, no-play. In Wilmington, the Riverfront is a thriving waterside district of parks, boutiques, restaurants, and more. Along the coast, towns like Dewey and Lewes provide weekend getaways for people. Rehoboth Beach is known for being one of the most family-friendly and LGBTQ-friendly beaches in the United States. Finally, Dover’s capital is home to the First Ste Heritage Park, where you can see Colonial-era landmarks.

Enclosed Auto Transport to Delaware

As a mid-Atlantic state and being open to the ocean, Delaware can get hit hard by tropical storms in the spring and summer and then blizzards in the winter. This means having an auto transport company that knows how to move and protect your major investment, regardless of the weather. By transporting your car through Delaware in enclosed auto transport, you’ll avoid wind-blown debris and abrasive sand from the beaches that can damage your car’s exterior. Due to the harsh Delaware weather, having your car shipped to Delaware in an enclosed carrier is a smart investment.

The safest way to transport your car to Delaware is within an enclosed auto transport. There are two options for shipping your car via enclosed auto transport:

  • Soft-Sided Enclosed Auto Transport – The heavy canvas covering the carriers protects your car from wind-blown debris, rain, sleet, snow, and other elements.
  • Hard-Sided Enclosed Auto Transport – Also, hard-sided carriers offer protection in the unlikely event your car is exposed to possible damage during transportation.

Thinking about using open auto transport for shipping your car to Delaware? Open carriers are the same double-decker car carriers the dealerships use. Thus, your vehicle will be secured with state-of-the-art equipment and arrive within seven days of departure. Finally, open auto transport is an affordable way of shipping your car, thus protecting it from road vibration and mileage.

Lowboy Carriers to Delaware

With so much growth in the chemical and real estate sectors and constant work in the tourism meccas, cities from Seaford to Smyrna see construction booms. This means heavy equipment needs to be hauled across Delaware from one job site to the next, one city to another. A successful construction team will want to partner with a transport company that moves dozers, graders, excavators, and more quickly, safely, and securely – keeping teams and projects on schedule. Delaware construction crews rely on lowboy carriers to move their necessary heavy equipment and require a lowboy team that is experienced and capable. Number 1 Auto Transport’s lowboy carriers are ideal for moving the heavy equipment to complete the projects driving growth.

Transporting heavy equipment is a serious business. Our veteran lowboy carrier drivers are trained to handle oversized loads and high gross tonnage. Number 1 Auto’s drivers are skilled in moving heavy equipment in and out of job sites and navigating busy highways with unique loads.

The Steps We Take When Shipping a Car to Delaware…

The best way to answer the question of “How to ship my car to Delaware” is to show you how we operate our auto shipping business. We know car owners won’t trust just any car shipping company to move their vehicle across states – they want to experience and reputation. Here’s how we do it:

  1. First, once your order is placed, we’ll start the moving your car to Delaware process. This usually happens within a week. We’ll continue updating you on important information, including the time and date of pickup, tracking number, and the truck driver’s number.
  2. Then, the truck driver will call you to finalize delivery plans. All Number 1 Auto drivers strive to take care of all vehicles carried as if they are their own. Protecting your car against any damage from delivery is their ultimate concern. You’ll also sign and receive a Bill of Lading before the driver leaves.
  3. Finally, once the vehicle arrives in Delaware, you and the driver will inspect the vehicle for any damage. This is also the time when you will sign the final inspection report. It’s that simple!

Shipping a Car from Delaware

Delaware is sandwiched between the Port of New York and New Jersey – the third-largest port in the country and the largest and busiest East Coast port – and the Port of Virginia, the second-largest East Coast Port. With so many imports and domestics coming in through these ports, it’s no wonder that there are hundreds of car carriers set up to ship vehicles from Virginia or New York and New Jersey to cities up and down the coast, including major Delaware car destinations such as Dover, Wilmington, Newark, and Middletown. These ports are major shipping hubs from across the United States, which is great news for all our military members at Dover Air Force Base. It’s easy to bring in their car or truck no matter where they’re being transferred from!
