Door-to-door Anaconda car shipping under the smelter stack, with Georgetown Lake cabin cars met in town and south-side hill streets met at the bottom.
Ship A Car, Inc. arranges door-to-door vehicle transport for Anaconda, the old smelter town at the head of the Deer Lodge Valley, where the stack still stands on the hill above the east end, the company-built grids climb toward the mountains on the south side, Highway 1 meets I-90 fifteen minutes from town with Butte twenty-five minutes east, Georgetown Lake and the ski hill sit half an hour west up the pass, and a house costs far less than one in Missoula or Bozeman. The carrier hauling your car, into the valley or out of it, is licensed and insured, and we vetted it before handing over the job.
Pickups here are planned together with Butte: I-90 and I-15 meet twenty-five minutes east, Highway 1 out to the interstate is an easy run for a full-length car hauler, and the hand-off happens in town or at a Butte lot, whichever fits the driver’s route. In town, the lots along Commercial Avenue at the east end, or the wide pavement on Highway 1 heading out toward the interstate, give a loaded trailer room to stop. The flat grids take the truck to the driveway; a south-side street climbing toward the mountain meets it at the bottom, and a Georgetown Lake cabin meets it down in Anaconda, all settled at booking. We move families settling in the valley for the price of a house, retirees, new hires reporting to the Butte mine on a start date, and lake households, and from November to April we tell you up front how a storm on the pass could shift the plan.
Speak with a coordinator now at (866) 821-4555 for pickup at any address in Anaconda, Opportunity, Warm Springs, or Deer Lodge, or request an estimate by email through the quote calculator.
Moves that begin beyond the Deer Lodge Valley are covered in our Montana car shipping guide, with statewide routes, seasons and price ranges.
A 75-foot rig does not run the pass to Georgetown Lake loaded, so a lake or cabin address meets the truck in Anaconda, half an hour from the door and on the carriers’ route.
Twenty-five minutes from the junction of two interstates puts Anaconda on the Butte window, 2-3 days to load, with the hand-off in town or at the Butte lots.
Type in the route, the vehicle and your dates, and the quote calculator emails an Anaconda estimate; a specialist then calls to confirm the price. The coordinator who takes your first call keeps the move until the car is inspected at delivery.
Anaconda prices on the Butte window, twenty-five minutes off the I-90/I-15 junction. Five things move your number:
What does a car move to or from Anaconda cost? The table answers first: all five rows, Las Vegas, Wichita, San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, show the middle half of what customers paid for open-carrier sedan moves of similar length in our bookings between September 2025 and August 2026.
The ranges assume a sedan on an open trailer. Expect more for a pickup, a three-row SUV or a car that will not start, and about a third more for an enclosed trailer. Get an emailed estimate for your own Anaconda move from the quote calculator or call (866) 821-4555. No deposit is taken until a carrier is assigned to your move.
The smelter stack still stands on the hill above the east end, taller than any building in the state.
It carries the town to I-90 in fifteen minutes and to Butte in twenty-five, and the rig runs it without trouble.
Georgetown Lake and the ski hill sit half an hour west up the pass, and their cars meet the truck in town.
A house on the old company grid costs far less than one in Missoula or Bozeman, and that draws newcomers to the valley.
Please note: These Anaconda figures, for Las Vegas, Wichita, San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, come from open-carrier sedan moves of similar length in our bookings between September 2025 and August 2026. Fuel, season and the vehicle itself change the final price, and the booked Anaconda price is the one a specialist confirms, not the emailed estimate.
