Louisiana to Vermont Auto Transport
Shipping a Car From Louisiana to Vermont
New Orleans to Burlington is about 1,490 miles, up I-59 and I-81 and north through Albany. Brattleboro is around 1,425, Rutland about 1,430, Stowe close to 1,525, Baton Rouge to Burlington roughly 1,560, and Shreveport to Burlington around 1,650. Most cars arrive 4 to 6 days after pickup.
Louisiana to Vermont moves are usually families relocating to Burlington, buyers of ski and country homes, and students at UVM and Middlebury. Few trucks run this lane directly, so Vermont cars often ride with other New England loads. Winter and mud season take the most planning.

The Route
How Cars Get From Louisiana to Vermont
Burlington loads take I-59 to Chattanooga and I-81 up to Scranton, then cross to Albany and ride I-87 north before cutting across Lake Champlain country into Burlington. Rutland is a short run east of Albany.
Brattleboro and southern Vermont are reached on I-91 from Hartford. Montpelier and Stowe are off I-89, and ski towns and mountain roads take extra planning from December through mud season.

Timing
When to Ship Louisiana to Vermont
Vermont's long winter and mud season set the timing.
Winter
From December through March, snow can push a delivery back a day, especially in the mountains.
Mud Season
In March and April, dirt roads turn soft. Expect to meet on pavement.
Foliage Season
Late September and October bring heavy weekend traffic. Weekday delivery is easier.
Hurricane Season
From June through November, a Gulf storm can delay a Louisiana pickup a day or more. If one is in the forecast, we'll reschedule around it.
Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Louisiana to Vermont?
Here's what affects price on a Louisiana to Vermont shipment.
Distance
At 1,400 to 1,650 miles, this is a long multi-day haul.
Less-Traveled Lane
Vermont cars often ride with other New England loads, so flexible dates help.
Dirt and Mountain Roads
Many Vermont homes are on dirt roads that a loaded carrier can't use.
Vehicle Size
Pickups and SUVs take more trailer space than a sedan.
Open or Enclosed
Enclosed keeps winter salt off a nicer car.
Lead Time
Two or three weeks of notice gives us the best shot at your date.

Before You Ship & After You Arrive
What to know before your car heads to Vermont.
Registering in Vermont
New residents have 60 days to register with the Vermont DMV. Vermont requires an annual safety inspection, which includes an emissions check for newer vehicles. Check dmv.vermont.gov for current requirements.
Dirt Roads and Ski Homes
Steep driveways and dirt roads keep carriers off many Vermont properties. The driver will meet you in the nearest town or on a paved road.
Vermont Inspection
Within 15 days of registering, you'll need a Vermont inspection, which includes an emissions check on newer cars.
New Orleans and Northshore Pickups
The French Quarter, Marigny, Uptown, and Mid-City have narrow streets, low oak limbs, and curbside parking that a full-size car hauler can't get through. Metairie, Kenner, and the Northshore suburbs around Mandeville and Covington are usually easier. If your street won't work, the driver will meet you at a nearby lot off I-10, I-610, or I-12.
