Why Choose Car Shipping in Maine?

Avoid Harsh Driving Conditions

Maine is known for its snowy winters and icy roads, which can make long drives treacherous. Shipping your car ensures it avoids harsh weather conditions, protecting its condition and keeping you safe.

Save Time on Long Distances

Maine’s location in the northeastern United States means it can take hours—or even days—to drive to other states. Whether you’re moving to or from Maine, car shipping saves you valuable time while reducing wear and tear on your vehicle.

Rural and Remote Accessibility

Many areas in Maine are rural or remote, making transportation logistics challenging. With our door-to-door car shipping service, we handle all the details and ensure your vehicle is delivered directly to your location, no matter how off-the-beaten-path it may be.


Popular Routes for Maine Car Shipping

Maine’s location makes it a prime state for regional and interstate car shipping. Here are some of the most popular routes we handle:

  • Maine to Florida: Snowbirds frequently ship their cars to Florida for the winter months.
  • Maine to New York/New Jersey: Whether it’s for relocations or vehicle purchases, this is a highly requested route.
  • Maine to California: For cross-country moves, our professional team ensures your vehicle arrives safely on the West Coast.
  • Maine to Canada: With Maine bordering Canada, we also facilitate vehicle transport across the border for international customers.

Maine-Specific Considerations for Car Shipping

Seasonal Shipping Challenges

Maine’s winters can bring heavy snowfall, ice storms, and freezing temperatures, which may affect shipping timelines. Planning ahead and opting for enclosed transport can help protect your vehicle from harsh winter conditions.

In contrast, Maine’s summers see increased demand for car shipping, particularly in coastal areas like Bar Harbor and Kennebunkport, as vacationers and seasonal residents move their vehicles. Booking early during peak seasons ensures availability and the best rates.

Rural Deliveries

With large portions of the state being rural, access to certain areas may require additional planning. Our experienced team coordinates with local carriers to navigate Maine’s unique geography, ensuring even the most remote locations are covered.

Tips for Shipping a Car to or from Maine

Plan Ahead

Shipping your car can take time, especially during peak seasons or in remote areas. Book your transport at least 2–3 weeks in advance to secure the best rates and availability.

Choose the Right Transport Option

  • Open Auto Transport: A cost-effective option for standard vehicles.
  • Enclosed Auto Transport: The best choice for high-value or delicate vehicles needing maximum protection.

Prepare Your Vehicle

Before your car is picked up, clean it thoroughly, remove all personal items, and ensure the gas tank is about ¼ full. Document the vehicle’s condition with photos to ensure transparency at delivery.

Check Weather Conditions

If you’re shipping during Maine’s winter months, consider how snow and ice might impact timelines. Enclosed transport is especially beneficial during this time.
