Pickup & delivery

Local considerations for Colorado Springs.

Base access

Civilian carriers usually can't drive onto Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base and the U.S. Air Force Academy. Plan to meet off-base in Colorado Springs, and line up dates with your report or departure date if you're on PCS orders.

Street access

A full-size carrier often can't fit on residential streets in denser parts of Colorado Springs. Expect to meet at a nearby wide street or a large parking lot. We'll confirm the spot before pickup day.

Mountain weather

At about 6,300 feet, storms can close passes into Colorado Springs for a day at a time. Open carriers wait them out, and enclosed transport is worth considering for low-clearance cars.

Highway handoff

If your street is hard to reach, a large lot near I-BUS25 is often the quickest handoff point in Colorado Springs.

FAQ

Car shipping questions about Colorado Springs.

Do you offer door-to-door car shipping in Colorado Springs, CO?

Yes. We arrange door-to-door service in Colorado Springs wherever a carrier can safely stop. In denser neighborhoods, that may be a nearby wide street or parking lot. We'll confirm the exact spot before pickup.

How far ahead should I book car shipping in Colorado Springs?

Booking a week or two ahead usually gives you the most options. In Colorado Springs, summer is peak PCS season around Fort Carson.

Can you ship a car from Colorado Springs to Denver, CO?

Yes. Colorado Springs to Denver is about 62 miles in a straight line, and the road distance is longer. We'll quote the route both ways and give you a timing window before you book.

Can a carrier pick up at Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base and the U.S. Air Force Academy?

Usually not on the installation itself. Civilian carriers generally can't get on base, so pickup is set at an address or public lot off-base in Colorado Springs. Have your orders handy if your dates depend on a report date.

Can you ship a car out of Colorado Springs in winter?

Yes. Snow can push a pickup back by a day, but carriers run all winter. If the car is a classic or low-clearance model, enclosed transport keeps it away from salt and slush.

Should I choose open or enclosed transport in Colorado Springs?

Open transport works well for most everyday cars and is the more affordable option. Enclosed transport protects luxury, classic or freshly detailed vehicles from road salt and winter grime along the way.
