Pickup & delivery
Local considerations for Washington.
Neighborhood rules
HOA rules, cul-de-sacs and low trees are common in Washington's neighborhoods. A nearby shopping-center lot or main road is the usual backup.
Winter prep
Winter storms can delay pickups. Rinse off road salt before the inspection so the condition report is accurate, and make sure the battery is strong.
Off the interstate
With I-295 about 8 miles away, some carriers will ask to meet closer to the highway. Door-to-door pickup is still the default whenever the truck can reach you.

Yes. Most addresses in Washington can be served door to door. If HOA rules or narrow streets get in the way, we'll set a nearby meeting point instead.
How far ahead should I book car shipping in Washington?
Booking a week or two ahead usually gives you the most options. Holiday weeks and month-end moving days book up first.

Can you ship a car out of Washington in winter?

Should I choose open or enclosed transport in Washington?
Open transport works well for most everyday cars and is the more affordable option. Enclosed transport protects luxury, classic or freshly detailed vehicles from salt air near the coast along the way.
