What is door-to-door car shipping?
With door-to-door service, the service provider picks your vehicle up at your origin address and delivers it to your destination address — the simplest experience for most people. It works on both open and enclosed transport.
When a full-size trailer can’t reach a specific street (narrow lanes, low bridges, or gated communities), the driver arranges a nearby meeting point like a wide street or shopping-center lot. CarShipConnect connects you with licensed, insured auto-transport service providers offering door-to-door service.

FAQ
Common questions
What does door-to-door car shipping mean?
The carrier picks your vehicle up at (or very near) your origin address and delivers it to your destination address, instead of using terminals. It’s the most convenient and most common option.
Will the truck come right to my door?
As close as it safely can. Full-size service providers can’t enter narrow streets, low-clearance areas, or gated communities, so the driver may meet you at a nearby wide street or large parking lot.
Does door-to-door cost more than terminal-to-terminal?
Often slightly more for the added convenience, but many routes price them similarly. Terminal-to-terminal can save money if you’re able to drop off and pick up yourself.
