How to Move a Car 2000 Miles without Adding Any Mileage

Recently, I had the opportunity to make a move across country. Amongst the tasks of packing and figuring out how to move a lifetime’s belongings across country and how to get my pets to the new destination with traumatizing them, I also had to figure out how to get my prized possession – my convertible sports car – there as well.

I am not partial to long road trips, especially not alone and across country. And with the price of gas these days, it would be very expensive. And frankly, I didn’t want to put the wear and tear on my car.

I would have racked up nearly 2000 miles over a few days. This car needs to last me and putting so many miles on it in a short time was not helping that goal.

Stressed and perplexed I turned to a friend for advice. He suggested that I get a cross country car shipping quote. He explained that companies transport vehicles across country on large car movers for a fee. It takes some time and you have to entrust your vehicle to the company for the duration, but

I couldn't imagine feeling confident enough to tow the car behind a big van either. It seemed like there was no good option. The stress of finding a solution was really getting to me.

it would resolve the problem of not wanting to drive across country in the car or towing the car. I was skeptical. It sounded shady and dangerous. But with no other options, I went online to research the possibility.

Just as I suspected, there were a lot of negative opinions about companies that offer this service. But I also managed to find a list of reputable companies who all had good standing with consumer agencies. More researched reveled that shipping my car across country would cost less than $1000. And that it would be insured for the entire trip.  I decided to go for it.

The driver contacted me ahead of time to discuss where to meet to drop off my car. On the day of transfer, I met with the friendly driver who would be with my car for the entire trip and from whom I would receive the car in the end. He explained the process and told me I could contact him anytime during the shipping phase. He inspected my entire vehicle and was very thorough in noting any blemishes already on my car and promised to ensure there would be no more new ones. I signed off on the current condition and handed over the keys. About a week later, when I received my car it was in perfect condition. Just as I had left it and it had made the full 2000 mile trip without any wear or additional mileage.

The process worked out very well for me and I would recommend getting a car shipping quote for your cross country move. Just make sure to do your homework. It takes some research to find a reputable company and you should carefully read all the fine print to know what you’re getting into. Check with consumer agencies and check references. My car and I made it safely across country and you can too.
