Delaware Car Shipping
Car Shipping To, From & Within Delaware
Delaware may be small, but it sits right on I-95 between Philadelphia and Baltimore — one of the busiest car shipping corridors on the East Coast. That makes it easy for carriers to pick up and deliver in Wilmington, Newark, Dover, and down to the beaches.
Whether you're relocating to Wilmington for work, moving to a retirement community in Sussex County, sending a car to a student at the University of Delaware, or heading to Florida for the winter, we match your vehicle with a vetted, insured carrier already running your route.
Every Delaware shipment is door-to-door, comes with a final-price quote, and has $0 due at booking.

Getting Around
Delaware Highways & Corridors
I-95 crosses northern Delaware between Philadelphia and Baltimore, with I-495 offering a bypass around Wilmington. The Delaware Memorial Bridge connects to New Jersey and the Turnpike, and DE-1 and US-13 run south through Dover toward the beaches.
Because the state is so compact, in-state moves are quick — Wilmington to Rehoboth Beach is about 90 miles. Summer beach traffic on DE-1 can slow pickups and deliveries in Sussex County, so a little flexibility helps.

Delaware Car Shipping Tips
A few Delaware-specific things that can affect your shipment.
Moving to Delaware?
New residents must title and register their vehicles within 60 days of becoming a Delaware resident, and vehicles with an out-of-state title must pass a Delaware DMV inspection first. Check the Delaware DMV for current requirements.
Snowbird Season
Delaware to Florida is a popular snowbird route. Southbound demand peaks October through December, and northbound peaks in late March and April — book a few weeks ahead.
Beach Season
Summer traffic along DE-1 and in the beach towns can slow pickups and deliveries in Sussex County. Weekday appointments are usually easier.
Military Moves
We ship vehicles for service members and families stationed at Dover Air Force Base.
Pricing
How Much Does Delaware Car Shipping Cost?
Here's what determines the price of shipping a car to, from, or within Delaware.
Distance & Route
Delaware's spot on I-95 keeps routes north and south busy and efficient.
Direction & Season
Shipping to Florida in the fall — or back in the spring — runs with the snowbird rush and typically costs more.
Location
Addresses near I-95 and DE-1 are easiest to reach. Beach-town streets can be tight in summer.
Open or Enclosed
Open transport is the most affordable. Enclosed costs more but shields your vehicle from weather and debris.
Vehicle Size
Full-size trucks and SUVs take more trailer space and weight capacity than sedans.
Pickup Flexibility
A flexible pickup window gives us more carriers to choose from — which usually means a better price.
Your Quote Is Your Final Price
Some companies advertise a low number to win your booking, then raise it once your car is waiting on a truck. We don't. The price we quote is the price you pay — with $0 due when you book.

FAQ
Delaware Car Shipping FAQs
How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Delaware?
The price depends on distance, route, vehicle size, open or enclosed transport, season, and how flexible your dates are. Routes along I-95 are usually the most cost-effective. Request a free quote and we'll give you a final price — not an estimate that changes later.
How long does car shipping to or from Delaware take?
It depends mostly on distance. Trips to nearby states often take 1 to 2 days after pickup, while Delaware to Florida commonly takes about 2 to 5 days and cross-country routes about 6 to 10 days.
How long do I have to register my car after moving to Delaware?
New residents must title and register within 60 days of becoming a Delaware resident. Vehicles with an out-of-state title need to pass a DMV inspection first. Check the Delaware DMV for the latest requirements.
Can you ship my car from Delaware to Florida for the winter?
Yes. Delaware to Florida is a popular snowbird route. Book 2 to 4 weeks ahead for fall pickups, and let us know your spring plans so we can quote the trip home too.
Do you deliver to Rehoboth Beach and the Delaware beaches?
Yes. We ship to Rehoboth Beach, Lewes, Bethany Beach, Fenwick Island, and the rest of Sussex County. In busy summer months, your driver may arrange a nearby meeting spot if streets are tight.
Can you ship a car for a military move to Dover Air Force Base?
Yes. We ship vehicles for service members and families moving to or from Dover Air Force Base. Share your report date when you request a quote.
Do you ship cars between Delaware and nearby states?
Yes. We handle short moves to Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey as well as long-distance routes. Every shipment is door-to-door.
Is my car insured during transport?
Yes. Every carrier we work with is required to carry active cargo insurance. Your vehicle's condition is documented on the Bill of Lading at pickup and checked again at delivery. Personal items left in the vehicle are not covered.
Do I have to pay upfront?
No. There's $0 due at booking. Once a carrier is assigned, you can either pay a small deposit and the remaining balance directly to the driver at delivery, or pay in full at that point so nothing is due at delivery.
