Indiana to New Jersey Auto Transport
Shipping a Car From Indiana to New Jersey
Indianapolis to Newark is about 700 miles, east on I-70 and across Pennsylvania on I-80 or the Turnpike. Princeton is closer to 650. It's one long day or two easy ones.
Indianapolis and Central Jersey are both pharmaceutical hubs, so scientists, sales reps, and executives move between them regularly. We also ship for finance and consulting transfers to North Jersey and New York, students at Princeton and Rutgers, and New Jerseyans moving to Indianapolis for lower taxes and housing costs.

Mountain winters and summer at the Shore shape this route.

Jersey Shore Summers
Memorial Day to Labor Day, traffic on the Parkway and in Shore towns slows everything down. Midweek is best.

June through August is busiest. Book a week or two ahead.
Fall

Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Indiana to New Jersey?
Here's what moves the price between Indiana and New Jersey.
How Far North or South
Cherry Hill and Princeton run about 620 to 660 miles from Indianapolis; Bergen County a bit more.
Turnpike and Bridge Tolls
Pennsylvania and New Jersey Turnpike tolls ride along with the truck and are included up front.
Parking-Tight Towns
Hoboken, Jersey City, and many Shore towns leave no room for a hauler, so a nearby lot is the norm.
Summer at the Shore
Memorial Day to Labor Day deliveries to Shore towns book up fast.
Bigger Vehicles
Three-row SUVs and pickups claim more of the trailer and cost more to move.
Covered Trailer Option
A covered trailer keeps winter salt and grit off a collector or luxury car.

Before You Ship & After You Arrive
A few New Jersey-specific things worth knowing.
Registering in New Jersey
New residents have 60 days to title and register with the NJ MVC. Most cars need an emissions inspection every two years. Check nj.gov/mvc for current requirements.
Pharma Transfers

City Deliveries
Hoboken and Jersey City streets are too tight for a car carrier. The driver will set up a nearby meeting spot.
Indiana Pickups
HOA truck rules in Carmel and Fishers subdivisions, busy apartment complexes around Indianapolis, game-day traffic in Bloomington and West Lafayette, and long gravel lanes in farm country 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-65, I-69, I-70, I-74, I-465, or the Toll Road.

FAQ
Indiana to New Jersey Car Shipping FAQs
How long does it take to ship a car from Indiana to New Jersey?
Usually 2 to 3 days after pickup.
How much does it cost to ship a car from Indiana to New Jersey?
It depends on your exact pickup and delivery locations, vehicle size, open or enclosed transport, and the season. Request a free quote and you'll get a final price, good for 7 days.
Can you deliver to Hoboken or Jersey City?
Usually to a nearby lot or wide street rather than your door. Those streets are too tight for a car carrier.
Does New Jersey require a vehicle inspection?
Most cars need an emissions inspection every two years. Check with the MVC for your vehicle.
Is it cheaper to ship or drive from Indiana to New Jersey?
Driving 700 miles is a long day on the Turnpikes. If you're moving two cars or flying, shipping saves the trip.
Can you ship a car from New Jersey back to Indiana?
Yes. Request a quote with your New Jersey pickup address and your Indiana delivery address. It's door-to-door either way.
Is my car insured during transport?
Yes. Every carrier we work with is required to carry active cargo insurance. Your car's condition is documented on the Bill of Lading at pickup and checked again at delivery. Personal items left in the vehicle aren't covered.
Do I have to pay upfront?
No. There's $0 due at booking. Once a carrier is assigned, you can pay a deposit and the rest to the driver at delivery by cash or check, or pay in full at that point.
