How carriers move through Montana.
I-90 crosses Montana from the Idaho line through Missoula, Butte, Bozeman and Billings to Wyoming. I-15 runs north–south from Idaho through Butte, Helena and Great Falls toward Canada, and I-94 heads east from Billings toward North Dakota.
Seasons and weather
Mountain passes on I-90, including Homestake Pass near Butte and Bozeman Pass, can be snowy from fall through spring. Winter often means wider delivery windows for western Montana.
Why people ship cars in Montana
Relocations to Bozeman, Missoula and the Flathead Valley have grown sharply. Montana State and the University of Montana bring students, and Malmstrom AFB in Great Falls adds military moves. Seasonal homeowners and ranch buyers ship trucks and specialty vehicles too.

Montana car shipping questions.
Why can Montana shipments take longer to schedule?
Long distances and a smaller population mean fewer carriers pass through each week. Flexible dates help a lot.
Can you ship a car to Bozeman in winter?
Yes. Bozeman is on I-90, but snow on Bozeman Pass can add a day or so.
Do you serve Malmstrom Air Force Base?
Yes. Pickups are usually arranged in Great Falls, outside the base gate.
Which Montana cities do you have shipping guides for?
We have 10 city and town pages for Montana, including Billings, Missoula, Great Falls, Bozeman, Butte, and Helena. We also ship to and from addresses anywhere else in the state.
How do I register a car after shipping it to Montana?
Registration is handled by the Montana Motor Vehicle Division through your county treasurer. 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.
