Door-to-door car shipping with fully insured carriers. No upfront payment.
Fernley's growth as a warehouse and distribution hub east of Reno drives steady relocation traffic into this Nevada community. The Tesla Gigafactory area nearby generates additional demand to ship a car to Fernley, as workers relocate from out of state. These employment-driven moves account for much of the Fernley auto transport activity in the region.
Despite sitting along the I-80 corridor, Fernley sees limited carrier routing compared to Reno or Sparks. Most carriers traveling I-80 between Reno and Salt Lake City pass through without scheduled stops, so car shipping companies Fernley customers work with typically need advance coordination to arrange a detour. Pricing reflects this lower route demand and the additional mileage carriers absorb.
Fernley's rural access profile means some residential streets or newer subdivision roads may not accommodate full-size transport trailers. In those cases, meeting the carrier at a nearby commercial lot along I-80—such as near the Truck Inn or an accessible parking area off Exit 46—can simplify the pickup process.

At pickup, the driver and you complete a joint vehicle inspection. Every scratch, dent, and existing mark is documented on the Bill of Lading. At delivery, you must carefully compare the vehicle's condition against this record before signing the delivery receipt. If you notice any new damage, note it on the Bill of Lading before you sign. Once you sign the delivery receipt without noting damage, it becomes extremely difficult to file and win a claim. This is the single most important step in protecting yourself during the transport process.
Fernley's distance from major carrier hubs is the primary cost driver. Limited route demand through this part of Nevada means carriers factor in detour mileage from the Reno corridor. Vehicle type, season, and destination distance also shape pricing. Request a quote for your specific route.
Fernley's low carrier volume along I-80 east of Reno means matching your shipment to an available carrier can take longer than in metro markets. Flexible scheduling helps secure a route assignment sooner. Select your route above for timing details.
Yes on paved roads where carrier equipment can safely navigate. Some newer Fernley subdivisions have narrow streets or cul-de-sacs that limit trailer access. In those situations, a nearby meeting point along I-80 or a commercial lot in town may be arranged as an alternative.
Open transport works well for most vehicles shipping through Fernley, and Nevada's dry climate poses minimal weather risk during transit. Enclosed carriers offer added protection for high-value, classic, or luxury vehicles. However, enclosed availability is more limited than open transport and pricing is typically higher, especially in a low-volume market like Fernley.
Nevada sees year-round auto transport demand without major seasonal shifts, so Fernley auto transport timing depends more on carrier routing than weather. Booking during periods of lower national demand—typically late fall through early winter—may improve carrier options and reduce wait times for this smaller market.
Someone 18 or older must be present at both ends to authorize the shipment and sign the Bill of Lading. If you cannot attend personally, designate a trusted representative — a friend, family member, or dealership contact — to handle the vehicle inspection and paperwork on your behalf.
Yes. Every carrier in our network carries cargo insurance as required by their FMCSA operating authority. Coverage specifics are confirmed before dispatch. At both pickup and delivery, you complete a joint vehicle inspection documented on a Bill of Lading — this protects you if any issue arises.
Yes, we transport non-running vehicles to Fernley. The vehicle needs to roll, steer, and brake for standard loading. Vehicles that cannot roll may require a winch or forklift at additional cost. Mention the vehicle's condition when requesting your quote.
Wash the exterior so scratches and dents are visible during inspection. Remove toll transponders, parking passes, and loose interior items. Leave roughly a quarter tank of fuel. Disable aftermarket alarms. Take dated photos of all sides, roof, and odometer before the carrier arrives for your records.
Most carriers allow personal belongings in the trunk or cargo area up to about 100 pounds. Items must stay below the window line and cannot be fragile or high-value. Personal items are not covered under carrier cargo insurance, so keep the vehicle as empty as practical.
