Car shipping in South Carolina

South Carolina was one of the original 13 colonies, named after King Charles I of England (Carolus is Latin for Charles). Rich in history, with a desirable climate, beautiful beach towns and delicious cuisine, South Carolina is a popular destination for travelers or those looking to move to a one-of-a-kind locale.

Did we mention the diverse and delicious cuisine? From oysters and the “lowcountry boil” to barbecue and grits, you’ll never go hungry in South Carolina. Whether it’s the food, culture or lifestyle that brings you to the state, there is so much to see—and you’ll need a way to get around in order to check all the “to-dos” off your list.

What to consider when shipping a car in South Carolina

Want to get your car to South Carolina for an upcoming move or vacation? You may think driving there yourself is the smartest and cheapest option, but that’s not necessarily the case. Especially if you live on the west coast, the drive east can take days. (For reference, the average drive time from California to South Carolina is 37 hours.) This means many stops for gas, food, lodging and to stretch your legs; not to mention a lot of wear on your vehicle. 

Instead, professional car shippers can get your car, truck or motorcycle across the country for you, easing stress and saving time. Transport distance, time of year, vehicle make and model, and locations will all factor into your final shipping cost.

Choose the best South Carolina auto transport company

Also important in the car shipping process is finding a company to provide the service. When looking online, you’ll likely come across hundreds of carrier options. How are you supposed to know which is the best one for you? You can read online reviews, ask friends and family for recommendations, submit quotes on a bunch of different websites (look out for lead aggregators!)-or, make it easier by leaving the work to an auto transport company. 

Shippers work with you to understand your specific vehicle and shipping needs, then crawl their networks to find the best match. GAS Motorsports is the leading auto transport company in the country, taking a personalized approach and helping thousands of satisfied clients every year.

Testimonials

Our client loves us because of our quality work

If there were a 5+ rating I would use it! Roman and his team have been moving our cars between Washington and California every season for the past 5+ years. In the past we had used other services and had problems. We have never had an issue with GAS.

Best experience ever. I’ve shipped 8 cars from Seattle to Southern California and Gas is by far the most professional and the quickest I’ve ever used. Their pricing is excellent and their customer service is even better
You guys rock! Thank you so much for making this process seamless

Alan Zoltie
Customer

First time shipping a car out-of-state; obviously nervous and apprehensive. Roman thoroughly explained the process and keep me posted on actual pick up date & time.  Car arrived in Denver in the exact same condition it left Bellingham. Will certainly used GAS Motorsport again. DF

Dave Fleming
Customer

Very flexible, delivered my vehicle on a revised date and within minutes of ETA. Communications were excellent from start to finish and made the transition seem less. Would use their service again!

Washington to California

Marty Owens
Customer

I moved 2 vehicles with them. Fast service at a fair price. I liked that my cars were stored inside their secure shop until pick up. Once on the truck they sent me photos and contact info for the driver. Highly recommended!
