Car shipping in Virginia

Virginia is home to many famous beaches that must be seen and experienced. While some enjoy lying in the sand catching rays or splashing in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, others prefer to drive up the coast with the wind in their hair. And what better way to take a joy ride than in a classic vehicle? 

If you live in Virginia and purchase a classic car from another state, you need to figure out how to get the vehicle to your home. Vintage or classic vehicles are by definition older and enthusiasts know to avoid putting too many miles on them—meaning you won’t want to drive it across the country just to get it home. Classic car shipping is an ideal way to safely move your new prized possession.

What to consider when shipping a car in Virginia

Shipping a classic car requires special considerations beyond those of shipping a standard vehicle. After all, you want to protect your older, more fragile car from weather and the elements while in transit. This is why enclosed transport is generally recommended. An enclosed truck or trailer provides peace of mind knowing the vehicle has more protection against the elements. 

Open transport works well for everyday vehicles such as sedans, SUVs or trucks. This type of transport is also the most common and cost-effective. Over 90% of truckers operate an open auto transport trailer, which means there are more carriers available to pick up your car. To understand your options and figure out what vehicle shipping method best accommodates your needs, work with a professional auto transport company.

Choose the best Virginia auto transport company

Unless you’re an expert in auto shipping and have all the equipment of an experienced carrier, we recommend teaming up with professionals.

Find one who has extensive experience and a high number of positive online customer reviews to prove they have a solid reputation in auto transportation.

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

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!

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!
