Missouri Car Shipping

The cost of shipping a car to Missouri depends on several factors, including distance, location, trailer type, vehicle details, and seasonality. Prices fluctuate throughout the year, and busy seasons may lead to slightly higher costs. In order to get the most accurate quote, you should provide the following information: your car’s type and specifications, origin and destination cities, flexible shipping dates (if possible), and preferred trailer type (open or enclosed).

Most pickup windows are 24-72 hours from when the vehicle is ready to be picked up. In remote areas, it could take up to 5 days. Here are some estimated transit times based on distance:

• Under 1,000 miles: 2-3 days
• 1,000-1,750 miles: 4-6 days
• 1,750-2,500 miles: 7-10 days

While some personal belongings can be transported inside your vehicle for your convenience, there are restrictions. The total weight must be under 100 pounds, and for security reasons, they should be stored in the trunk or back seat, remaining below the window line. It’s important to note that any personal belongings shipped within the car are not covered by the standard transport insurance in case of damage or loss.

It’s recommended to wash your car so the transport carrier can do a proper inspection at pickup. Remove any toll tags so you don’t incur fees while in transit. It’s also best to remove any loose parts to prevent any damage during transport.
