Door-to-door New York City car shipping planned borough by borough, with corridor and pier-lot meeting points, alternate-side timing, and real New York bands.
Ship A Car, Inc. arranges door-to-door vehicle transport for New York City, the largest city in the country, where more cars ship in and out than anywhere else, the bridges and the Cross Bronx carry the trucks while the parkways ban them, a Staten Island driveway takes a hauler like any suburb, a Queens or Brooklyn block wants a wide corridor, Manhattan wants a plan, and every autumn a fleet of New York cars heads for Florida and comes back in the spring. Your car rides with a licensed, insured carrier we vet before it is assigned.
New York ships cars like five cities wearing one name, and the plan is built around which one you are in. Carriers arrive daily from every region and the windows run short, but a 75-foot hauler cannot work a Manhattan side street, idle on a bus lane, or clear a parkway bridge, so the meeting point is fixed up front: a wide crosstown corridor, a West Side pier lot, an outer-borough avenue, or the New Jersey side, whichever puts the truck and your schedule in the same easy place. Snowbirds on the Florida turnaround, postings abroad and new jobs across the country, and cars sent to a parent who retired south are the shipments we see most. Staten Island and the outer-borough houses take the truck to the door; the dense blocks meet it on the corridor, and pickups are timed so the car is never trapped on the wrong side of an alternate-side day.
Speak with a coordinator now at (866) 821-4555 for pickup at any address in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, or Staten Island, or price the exact route in seconds with the instant calculator.

More vehicles ship in and out of the metro than anywhere else, so carriers arrive daily from every region and the competition keeps the corridor’s prices honest.
We time the pickup so a street-parked car is not trapped on the wrong side of a cleaning day or boxed into a snow-emergency route.
Enter your lane, vehicle, and dates in the instant calculator and dispatch books from that figure. One coordinator handles the move from booking to the delivery inspection.
New York prices as the deepest carrier market in the country, with every region’s trucks arriving daily. Five things move your number:
The price question comes first on every New York call. New York books enough orders on each of these lanes for a reliable middle, so the bands below are standard-sedan open-transport lanes into and out of New York that we have booked since 2023, shown as the middle of the market rather than the cheapest or the most expensive order.
Planning figures, not a quote. Enclosed adds about a third, the Florida turnarounds and summer firm every lane, and a pickup or a non-running car prices above a sedan. For the real number on your route use the instant calculator or call (866) 821-4555. No deposit is taken until a carrier is assigned to your move.
A Staten Island driveway, a Queens block, and a Manhattan avenue each ship a car a different way.
Most Manhattan households skip the car, which is why the ones that own one usually move it properly.
Street parking runs on the cleaning-day calendar, and shipping a car means beating it.
Every autumn a fleet of New York cars heads south, and every spring it returns.
Please note: Estimates on this page are middle-of-the-market bands for standard sedans on open carriers from New York lanes booked since 2023. Season, fuel, route, and vehicle move the real number; your calculator quote is the accurate figure.
