Georgia to Virginia Auto Transport
Shipping a Car From Georgia to Virginia
Atlanta to Richmond is about 530 miles, up I-85 through Charlotte and Durham. Arlington is closer to 640, Norfolk is around 560, and Roanoke is about 420. It's one long day of driving.
This is a big military route. Sailors move between Kings Bay and Norfolk, officers and civilians go from Fort Gordon, Fort Stewart, and Robins to the Pentagon and Fort Belvoir, and Army families head to Fort Eustis. We also ship for Atlanta professionals moving to Northern Virginia's government and tech jobs, and students at UVA, Virginia Tech, and William & Mary.

Timing
When to Ship Georgia to Virginia
Military schedules and coastal weather set the calendar.
Summer PCS Season
May through August is the peak for Norfolk, the Pentagon, Fort Belvoir, and Quantico. Book as soon as you have orders.
Hurricane Season
June through November can affect Hampton Roads and the Georgia coast. Keep a little slack in your dates.
Mountain Winter
Snow on I-81 and in the Blue Ridge can slow western Virginia deliveries for a day.
Fall
Usually the smoothest time to ship.
Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Georgia to Virginia?
Here's what moves the price between Georgia and Virginia.
Distance
Most of Virginia is 420 to 650 miles from Georgia.
A Busy Lane
I-85 and I-95 carry heavy truck traffic, which keeps prices competitive.
Season
Summer PCS moves raise demand. Fall and winter are often the best value.
Delivery Area
Suburbs and bases are easy. Old Town Alexandria and tight Arlington streets usually need a meeting spot.
Vehicle Size
Pickups and full-size SUVs take more trailer space than sedans, so they cost more to ship.
Date Flexibility
A flexible window helps during PCS season.

Get My Georgia to Virginia QuoteGood to Know
Before You Ship & After You Arrive
A few Virginia-specific things worth knowing.
Registering in Virginia
New residents have 30 days to title and register with the Virginia DMV. Virginia requires an annual safety inspection, plus emissions testing in Northern Virginia. Active-duty members may keep their home-state registration. Check dmv.virginia.gov for current requirements.
Moving With the Navy
We ship for sailors and families moving from Kings Bay to Norfolk, Oceana, Little Creek, and Dam Neck.
Pentagon and NoVA Moves
We also ship for officers, civilians, and families moving from Fort Gordon, Fort Stewart, Robins, and Moody to the Pentagon, Fort Belvoir, Fort Myer, and Quantico.
Georgia Pickups
Busy metro Atlanta apartment complexes, gated subdivisions with HOA truck rules, and the narrow historic streets of downtown Savannah can keep a big carrier off your street. If so, the driver will set up a nearby meeting spot, usually a lot just off I-285, I-75, I-85, I-20, I-16, or I-95.
