Before You Ship & After You Arrive
What to know before your car heads to Georgia.
Registering in Georgia
New residents have 30 days to title and register at the county tag office and pay a one-time title ad valorem tax. Metro Atlanta counties require emissions testing for many vehicles. Check dor.georgia.gov for current requirements.
Savannah's Historic District
Narrow squares and lanes downtown can't fit a carrier. Plan to meet at a lot nearby.
Georgia Emissions
Metro Atlanta counties require emissions testing for many vehicles.
South Jersey Pickups
Cherry Hill, Mount Laurel, Voorhees, and Vineland are near I-295, the Turnpike, and Route 55, a short run to the Philadelphia bridges. Carriers heading south pass through often, which keeps pickups here easy to schedule.
