Corridors

How carriers move through Kentucky.

I-75I-65I-64I-71I-24I-69I-264I-265

I-75 runs through northern Kentucky, Lexington and Corbin toward Knoxville. I-65 links Louisville, Elizabethtown and Bowling Green with Nashville, and I-64 crosses from Louisville through Lexington to West Virginia. I-71 connects Louisville and Cincinnati, I-24 runs through Paducah, and I-69 serves the west.

Seasons and weather

Winter ice is a bigger scheduling problem than snow, especially on hilly routes in the east. Spring storms and the Kentucky Derby crowds in Louisville in early May can also affect timing.

Why people ship cars in Kentucky

Toyota builds in Georgetown, Ford in Louisville, and the Corvette plant and National Corvette Museum are in Bowling Green, so collector and enthusiast shipping is common. Fort Knox and Fort Campbell bring military moves, and UK, UofL and WKU bring students.

FAQ

Kentucky car shipping questions.

Can you ship a Corvette to or from Bowling Green?

Yes. Bowling Green is on I-65, and enclosed transport is a popular choice for collector and new Corvettes.

Do you handle Fort Knox and Fort Campbell moves?

Yes. Pickups are usually arranged in Radcliff, Elizabethtown, Hopkinsville or Oak Grove, outside the gates.

Is eastern Kentucky harder to reach?

Mountain roads off I-64 and I-75 can mean meeting near a main highway, and the pickup window may be wider.

Which Kentucky cities do you have shipping guides for?

We have 18 city and town pages for Kentucky, including Louisville, Lexington, Bowling Green, Owensboro, South Park View, and Covington. We also ship to and from addresses anywhere else in the state.

How do I register a car after shipping it to Kentucky?

Registration is handled by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet through your county clerk. Requirements and deadlines change, so check the official site before you arrive. Keep your title, proof of insurance and the carrier's bill of lading handy.
