Dallas–Fort Worth Car Shipping
Car Shipping To & From Dallas–Fort Worth
Dallas–Fort Worth is one of the fastest-growing metros in the country, with major companies relocating headquarters and employees to Plano, Frisco, Irving, and Fort Worth every year. That makes DFW one of the busiest places in Texas to ship a car.
The Metroplex sits where I-35, I-30, I-20, and I-45 come together, so carriers pass through daily on their way to California, Florida, the Midwest, and the East Coast. Whether you're relocating for work, sending a car to a student at SMU or TCU, or shipping a vehicle you bought from a DFW dealer, we match you with a vetted, insured carrier already running your route.
We service the entire Metroplex. Every shipment is door-to-door, comes with a final-price quote, and has $0 due at booking.

Local Know-How
Getting Around DFW
The Metroplex is a web of interstates and toll roads. I-35E runs through Dallas and I-35W through Fort Worth, I-30 and I-20 connect the two cities, and I-635 (LBJ Freeway) loops north Dallas. US-75, the Dallas North Tollway, and the President George Bush Turnpike serve Plano, Frisco, and the northern suburbs.
Most suburban DFW addresses are easy for carriers to reach. Uptown high-rises, gated communities, and HOA neighborhoods with truck rules may need a nearby meeting spot, and your driver will call ahead to plan it.

Good to Know
Dallas–Fort Worth Car Shipping Tips
A few local things that can affect your Dallas–Fort Worth shipment.
Moving to DFW?
New Texas residents generally have 30 days to register at the county tax office. Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton, and other DFW counties require an emissions test first. Check TxDMV for current requirements.
Hail Season
DFW gets some of the most frequent hailstorms of any major U.S. metro, especially in spring. Enclosed transport protects your vehicle, and carriers may adjust timing when severe storms are in the forecast.
Corporate Relocations
Many companies move employees to Plano, Frisco, Irving, and Fort Worth. If your employer is covering your move, we can work with your timeline and paperwork.
Students & Military
We ship vehicles for students at SMU, TCU, UT Dallas, UT Arlington, and UNT, and for service members at NAS Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth.

How Much Does Dallas–Fort Worth Car Shipping Cost?
Here's what determines the price of shipping a car to or from Dallas–Fort Worth.
Distance & Route
DFW sits on major interstates, so routes to California, Florida, and the Midwest are busy and efficient.
Exact Address
Suburban addresses near the highways are easiest to reach. High-rises and gated communities may need extra planning.
Season & Weather
Summer moving season and spring storm season can both affect carrier availability and price.
Open or Enclosed
Open transport is the most affordable and how most cars travel this route. Enclosed costs more but shields your vehicle from weather and road debris.
Vehicle Size
Full-size trucks and SUVs take more trailer space and weight capacity than sedans, so they cost a bit more to ship.
Pickup Flexibility
A flexible pickup window gives us more carriers to choose from — which usually means a better price and a faster match.
Your Quote Is Your Final Price
Some companies advertise a low number to win your booking, then raise it once your car is waiting on a truck. We don't. The price we quote is the price you pay — with $0 due when you book.

FAQ
Dallas–Fort Worth Car Shipping FAQs
How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Dallas–Fort Worth?
The price depends on distance, route, vehicle size, open or enclosed transport, season, and how flexible your dates are. Routes along I-20, I-30, and I-35 are usually the most cost-effective. Request a free quote and we'll give you a final price — not an estimate that changes later.
How long does car shipping from Dallas take?
It depends mostly on distance. Trips to Oklahoma or Louisiana often take 1 to 3 days after pickup, Dallas to Florida commonly takes about 3 to 5 days, and Dallas to California or the Northeast takes about 3 to 7 days.
Do you service Fort Worth and the suburbs?
Yes. We service the entire Metroplex, including Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Irving, Denton, Southlake, Mansfield, and Rockwall.
Does hail season affect car shipping in DFW?
It can. Spring hailstorms are common in DFW, and carriers may delay pickups or deliveries when severe weather is in the forecast. Enclosed transport keeps your vehicle protected from hail.
What do I need to register my car after moving to Dallas?
New Texas residents generally have 30 days to register at the county tax office. Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton, and other DFW counties require an emissions test first. Check TxDMV for the latest requirements.
Can you ship a car for a corporate relocation to DFW?
Yes. We work with relocating employees and their companies on timing, paperwork, and billing. Share your start date when you request a quote.
Can you ship a car I bought from a DFW dealer?
Yes. We pick up from dealerships and auction lots across the Metroplex and deliver door-to-door anywhere in the lower 48.
Do you ship cars from DFW to other Texas cities?
Yes. We handle in-state moves like Dallas to Houston, Austin, San Antonio, or the Rio Grande Valley. Every shipment is door-to-door.
Is my car insured during transport?
Yes. Every carrier we work with is required to carry active cargo insurance. Your vehicle's condition is documented on the Bill of Lading at pickup and checked again at delivery. Personal items left in the vehicle are not covered.
Do I have to pay upfront?
No. There's $0 due at booking. Once a carrier is assigned, you can either pay a small deposit and the remaining balance directly to the driver at delivery, or pay in full at that point so nothing is due at delivery.
