Shipping a Car to or from Vermont

Shipping a car to or from Vermont poses many challenges, making it more expensive than shipping to or from other states. Why? Vermont’s low population density, rural roads, winter weather, to list a few, bottom line is fewer carriers pass through regularly because of these challenges.


Why Is Vermont a Challenging State for Auto Transport?

Limited Carrier Traffic

Most auto transport carriers traveling along the East Coast stick to busier routes through Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Hampshire. Vermont is often considered “out of the way” for cross-country shipments, with many carriers stopping as far north as Manchester, NH, or Boston, MA.

Sparse Interstate Coverage

The primary hub for car shipping in Vermont is White River Junction, where Interstate 89 meets Interstate 91. Moving beyond this area or venturing into northern Vermont increases shipping prices and requires you to be have more flexible timeframe to get it done. Off-interstate locations require more time and resources, leading to higher costs. The roads in Vermont are very winding, hilly and covered with trees, all are not ideal for car carriers.

Seasonal Challenges

Vermont’s winters bring icy roads and heavy snowfall, potentially delaying transport schedules. Throughout the year, rural roads and underdeveloped infrastructure in remote areas can create logistical hurdles.

  • Winter Weather: Vermont is in the top 3 states for total snowfall! This makes for icy roads during the winter months and deters car haulers from shipping cars to or from Vermont.
  • Mud Season: Spring thaw creates very challenging road conditions on dirt roads, of which Vermont has many.
  • Heavy Rainfall: Spring and summer rains may lead to localized flooding and temporary road closures.

To ensure safe and timely transport, ATP monitors updates from the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans), keeping you informed about road conditions and weather impacts.


What Does This Mean for You?

  • Higher Costs: Carriers often require higher fees to ship to or from remote Vermont locations.
  • Longer Timelines: Deliveries may take more time, especially for pickups or drop-offs in isolated areas.
  • Realistic Expectations: Understanding these challenges ahead of time is important so you know why the costs of shipping a car to or from Vermont is much higher than even nearby states!

Testimonials

Paul Koether

I transport my car every winter from Texas to Florida and back. This year is the first time it has been painless. Auto Transport did everything as promised. Mike Surgen and his driver did a great job. I plan to be a repeat customer. Not the cheapest but the best. Avoid "bargains" in auto transport.

Scott Findley

Could not have been happier with the delivery of my classic Mustang. Easy engagement and setup, great communication and delivery. Transport driver was courteous, no problems at all. Thanks for making it easy.

Keith & Debbie

Had a great experience with ATP. They were able to ship my bike in 2 days from Wisconsin to Virginia when other companies said it would take 20-28 days and they did it at a lower price. ATP was in constant communication with me via phone, email, and texting. I absolutely will use ATP for all future transportation needs. I highly recommend them.
