Groton Car Shipping on the Submarine Base Calendar

Ship A Car, Inc. arranges door-to-door vehicle transport for Groton, the Submarine Capital where I-95 crosses the Thames on the big bridge, the base on the river sets the town’s calendar, the shipyard downriver builds the boats, the pharmaceutical campus on the point hires the scientists, the old fort stands over the harbor, and the shore villages of Noank and Mystic run east along the Sound. Whether it loads outside the gate on Route 12 or at a house in Noank, your car rides with a licensed, insured carrier we checked out before it got the job.

Groton sits on I-95 between New Haven and Providence, and we plan its moves around the base calendar. The lots on Route 12 by I-95 and on Long Hill Road near the interstate leave a 75-foot rig plenty of room close to the ramp. Houses on the regular street grid get the truck at the door; base households meet it at a lot outside the gate on Route 12, since carriers do not go onto the installation, and the narrow lanes of Noank and Mystic meet it on Route 1, agreed at booking. The work here includes base families on a report date, shipyard and pharmaceutical hires with a start date, and sailors sending a car ahead of a deployment, and from December to March we allow time for nor’easters.

Speak with a coordinator now at (866) 821-4555 for pickup at any address in Groton, Mystic, Ledyard, or New London, or request an estimate by email through the quote calculator.

Why Groton Movers Choose Ship A Car

Report-Date Windows

Base households get a pickup window worked backward from the report date, and a gate-side lot on Route 12, because carriers never enter the installation.

Deployments Handled

A sailor deploying can hand off through a spouse and ship the car to family across the country; both names go on the order and the driver calls each at the right end.

Estimate by Email, Confirmed by Phone

Put your route, car and dates into the quote calculator, and a Groton estimate comes by email, followed by a specialist’s call that settles the price. The coordinator who takes the booking stays with your Groton move until the car is inspected at the other end.

What Sets Your Groton Car Shipping Price

Groton prices on the shoreline window, on I-95 between New Haven and Providence. Five things move your number:

1. The Lane

2. Where the Car Loads

3. Vehicle Size, Weight, and Condition

4. Season

5. Open or Enclosed

Cars here load on Route 12 by I-95, with base households met outside the gate and Noank and Mystic addresses met on Route 1. Groton's Miami row is the middle half of our own Connecticut to Florida open-carrier orders since 2023, for cars heading south; for Norfolk, Charlotte, San Antonio and San Diego the ranges follow what customers paid on trips of similar length in our bookings from September 2025 to August 2026.

These ranges cover a sedan on an open carrier leaving from the gate-side lot or a driveway. A full-size truck, a three-row SUV or a car that will not start costs more, and enclosed transport is about a third above these figures. For the price of your own Groton move, use the quote calculator or call (866) 821-4555. No deposit is taken until a carrier is assigned to your move.

Living in Groton: What Movers Should Know

The Base

The submarine base on the Thames rotates households on its own calendar.

The Shipyard

The yard downriver builds the boats and hires on set start dates.

The Point

The pharmaceutical campus on the point hires the scientists who fill the new subdivisions.

The Shore Villages

Noank and Mystic keep their lanes narrow, and the truck meets them on Route 1.

Please note: Groton’s Miami range is the middle half of our own Connecticut to Florida open-carrier orders since 2023, for cars headed south, while Norfolk, Charlotte, San Antonio and San Diego reflect similar-length moves booked between September 2025 and August 2026. Season, fuel and your vehicle move the real price, and the one we book for Groton is confirmed by a specialist after the calculator emails an estimate.
