Timing
When to Ship New Hampshire to Texas
New England winters and the Winter Texan calendar set the timing.
New Hampshire Winter
From December through March, snow and ice can push a pickup back a day, especially north of Concord.
Winter Texan Season
October and November are busy heading to the Valley and South Texas, and March and April bring cars back north.
Gulf Hurricane Season
From June through November, a storm can delay deliveries in Houston, Freeport, and along the coast.
Houston and Dallas Traffic
Rush hour on I-35E, I-45, and I-610 can add hours. Drivers time deliveries around it.
Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From New Hampshire to Texas?
Here's what decides the price on a trip to Texas.
Dallas vs. Houston vs. South Texas
Dallas comes first. Houston adds about 105 miles, and the Valley more.
Storage or Port Prep
Need your car held at our Freeport lot before it ships out of Port Freeport? We'll quote the storage along with the transport.
Winter Texan Parks
RV parks and 55+ communities in the Valley often restrict big trucks.
Pickup Location
Southern New Hampshire is easiest. North Country pickups add miles.
Open or Enclosed
Enclosed keeps winter salt off a nicer car on the way south.
Lead Time
Two to three weeks of notice gives us the best shot at your date.

Texas is home for us, and we price these routes to move. What we quote is what you pay, with nothing due until a carrier is assigned.

New residents have 30 days to register with their county tax office. Texas ended safety inspections for most passenger vehicles in 2025, but emissions testing still applies in the major metro counties. Check txdmv.gov for current requirements.
Vehicle Storage & Port Freeport
Need somewhere to keep your car, or shipping it overseas? We can store vehicles at our lot in Freeport, Texas, and get them ready to go to Port Freeport to be shipped.
Winter Texan Parks
RV parks and 55+ communities in McAllen, Harlingen, and Mission often restrict big trucks. The driver will meet you at the entrance.
Concord, Keene, and Upper Valley Pickups
Concord is on I-93 and I-89, Keene is on NH-9 and NH-101, and Lebanon and Hanover sit on I-89 and I-91. Rural addresses on dirt roads often mean meeting at the nearest paved road or a lot in town.
