Timing
When to Ship Washington to Vermont
Northern-tier winters and mud season set the timing.
Snoqualmie Pass
From November through March, snow and chain rules on I-90 over Snoqualmie Pass can push a Seattle pickup back a day.
Montana Passes
Snow on I-90 over Lookout Pass and the Montana passes can hold an eastbound truck a day in winter.
Green Mountain Winter
From December through March, snow on I-89, US-7, and the mountain gaps can slow deliveries a day.
Mud Season
In April, dirt roads across Vermont turn to mud and some are posted against heavy trucks.
Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Washington to Vermont?
Here's what decides the price on a trip to Vermont.
Distance
At roughly 2,950 to 3,100 miles, this is about as long as a haul gets.
Very Few Trucks
Very few carriers run Washington to Vermont directly, so flexible dates help.
Southern vs. Northern Vermont
Bennington and Brattleboro come first. Burlington and Stowe add 85 to 150 miles.

Much of rural Vermont is dirt road, which often means meeting in town.

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.
Ski Town Roads
Steep drives around Stowe and Killington aren't safe for a loaded carrier in snow. Plan to meet at a resort lot or in town.
Wet Snow and Salt
Vermont winters are snowier and saltier than western Washington's. Winter tires and an undercarriage wash help.
Spokane Pickups
Spokane, Spokane Valley, and Liberty Lake sit right on I-90, the main route east. Most addresses have room for a carrier, though gravel roads outside town mean meeting on pavement.
