Car Shipping from Florida to Virginia

The Florida-to-Virginia lane is a 850-mile route we run year-round, with typical door-to-door delivery in 3 to 5 days. Expect open-carrier pricing between $550 and $850; larger vehicles, inoperable cars, and tight pickup windows sit at the upper end of that range.

Popular pickup and delivery areas

On the Florida side, most shipments start in the Miami, Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville metro areas, though our carrier network covers every county in the state. Deliveries in Virginia concentrate around Richmond and Virginia Beach. Door-to-door service means the driver gets as close to your address as the truck can safely and legally operate; on narrow residential streets, you'll typically meet at a nearby parking lot or wide cross-street.

How the route runs

Carriers on this lane primarily follow the I-95 East Coast corridor. This is a mid-length lane: long enough that federal hours-of-service rules require overnight stops, short enough that a single carrier usually handles it end to end in 3 to 5 days.

Pricing and timing tips

Rates on this lane are steadiest outside summer; June through August brings the most competing freight, so a little date flexibility saves real money then. Open transport is the right choice for most vehicles. For exotics, classics, or anything with custom paint, enclosed transport typically adds 30-40% but shields the car from weather and road debris for all 850 miles. Either way, your shipment is covered by $100,000 cargo insurance, tracked by GPS, and you pay nothing up front.
