Timing
When to Ship Kansas to West Virginia
Mountain weather and game days set the timing.
Mountain Snow
Snow and ice on mountain roads can slow deliveries from December through March, especially to higher towns.
Game Days
WVU and Marshall home football games fill Morgantown and Huntington in the fall. Plan a weekday delivery.
Hunting Season
Fall is busy for Kansans shipping trucks to hunting land. Book a week or two ahead.
Spring & Summer
Usually the smoothest time to ship.
Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Kansas to West Virginia?
Here's what affects the price between Kansas and West Virginia.
Distance
Most of West Virginia is 750 to 900 miles from Kansas City.
Mountain Roads
Hollows, switchbacks, and hilltop driveways can be tough for a big carrier. A nearby meeting spot keeps costs down.
Fewer Direct Trucks
West Virginia sees fewer direct carriers, so a flexible window helps.
Open or Enclosed
Open is the standard. Enclosed keeps winter salt off a nicer car.
Vehicle Size
Pickups and full-size SUVs take more trailer space than sedans, so they cost more to ship.
Date Flexibility
A flexible window lets us catch a truck already heading east.

Before You Ship & After You Arrive
A few West Virginia-specific things worth knowing.
Registering in West Virginia
New residents have 30 days to title and register with the WV DMV. West Virginia requires an annual safety inspection. Check transportation.wv.gov/dmv for current requirements.
WVU and Marshall Moves
Sending a car to a student in Morgantown or Huntington? Give us the move-in date and we'll plan around it.
Rural and Mountain Deliveries
Narrow hollow roads and steep driveways can keep a big carrier out. The driver will set up a meeting spot on a paved road in town.
Kansas Pickups
HOA truck rules in Overland Park, Olathe, and Leawood subdivisions, game-day traffic in Lawrence and Manhattan, tight older streets in Wichita's College Hill and Riverside, and long gravel section roads out west 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-35, I-70, I-135, I-435, or the Kansas Turnpike.

Can you deliver to a rural home in the mountains?
Sometimes. If the road is too narrow or steep for a carrier, the driver will meet you at a paved spot nearby.
Does West Virginia require a vehicle inspection?
Yes. West Virginia requires a safety inspection, and new residents also pay a one-time privilege tax when titling.
Is it cheaper to ship or drive from Kansas to West Virginia?
Driving 800 miles is a long day or two. If you're flying or moving two cars, shipping saves the trip.
Can you ship a car from West Virginia back to Kansas?
Yes. Request a quote with your West Virginia pickup address and your Kansas delivery address. Every shipment is door-to-door.
Is my car insured during transport?
Yes. Every carrier we work with must carry active cargo insurance. Your car's condition is recorded on the Bill of Lading at pickup and checked again at delivery. Personal items left in the car 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 balance to the driver at delivery by cash or check, or pay in full at that point.
