top snowbird destinations

Snowbirds are the lucky ones that get to enjoy the best of both worlds. They get to live in their hometowns and duck out to warmer destinations when things start to get cold up north. Each year as the temps up north begin to drop, North Americans from the United States and Canada to sunny, warm places to avoid the frigidity of winter.  To this group, commonly referred to as snowbirds, a seasonal migration offers them the chance to keep their hometown ties with family and friends in place while enjoying the balmy tropical life.

If you are a snowbird or hope to be one in the future, you’ll surely understand how many logistical details it entails to spend 50 percent of the year in one part and the globe and 50 percent in another! From setting up wi-fi to booking flights to transporting cars, there is lots to do before heading south for the winter.  Many snowbirds are taking advantage of auto transport as a convenient and affordable way to ship their cars, SUVs and motorcycles from north to south (and back again).

Here are the top reasons snowbirds love auto transport

  • Safety – Making the long drive from the north to the south can be too long to behind the wheel for many drivers of all ages. Especially as many areas experience icy road conditions, the winter-fleeing road trip might be best left to a professional driver.
  • Convenience – Having your car, SUV or motorcycle onsite at your winter home will save snowbirds money on cabs as well as allow for freedom and convenience.
  • Time-saving – Snowbirds can make the most of their winter vacay by flying into their snowbird nest and leaving the long road trip up to their car shipping service.
  • Affordable – The cost of gas adds up. Factor in the cost of meals and accommodation and snowbirds often find that car shipping is cheaper than making the trek yourself.
