Everything You Need to Know About the State of Kansas (KS)
Kansas whose capital is Topeka is bordered by Nebraska in the north; Missouri in the east; Oklahoma in the south; and Colorado in the west. The state is divided into 105 counties with 628 cities. Its largest county by surface area is Butler County. The state is equidistant from both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.
Kansas, situated on the American Great Plains, gained statehood as the 34th in the country on January 29, 1861. Its path to statehood was a long one filled with blood. The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 opened both territories to settlement and allowed the new settlers to decide whether the states would be admitted into the union as “free” or “slave”. The north and south competed to send the most settlers into the region and this quickly resulted in violence. Hence the appellation “Bleeding Kansas”.
In 1954, Kansas became a battleground of the civil rights movement when the pivotal Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka case was decided in the Supreme Court. This resulted in the abolishment of the “separate but equal” doctrine in public schools. Kansas is also known for its contributions to jazz music and barbecue.
Kansas has some nicknames including Sunflower State, Wheat State, and Jayhawk State of the country. The state’s motto is “Ad Astra per Aspera” which means “to the stars through difficulties” which simulates its history of struggle.
Fort Riley, an army installation of the United States was established in 1853 near the Kansas River. Its purpose was to protect settlers and traders along the Oregon and Santa Fe Trails. In 1866, the 7th Cavalry was organized at the fort under General George Armstrong Custer. General Custer went on to lead the regiment in the infamous attack on Sioux and Cheyenne tribes at the Battle of Little Bighorn in June of 1876.
When French astronomer Pierre Janssen first discovered the helium element on the sun in 1868, people believed it to be one of the rarest elements. It was not until 1905 that faculty members at the University of Kansas in Lawrence identified helium as a common element on the earth. This occurred when the faculty members began experimenting with gas from a newly drilled well in Dexter.
Referred to as “The Wheat Capital of the World,” Kansas is the leading producer of wheat in the United States. In 2009, Sumner County produced 9 million bushels of wheat.
Meade’s Ranch in Osborne County, Kansas, is the Geodetic Center of North America. A geodetic center is the point of reference that surveys all property lines and boundaries. Also known as the North American Datum, this triangulation station for the United States, Canada, and Mexico was identified in 1901.
Although the origin remains unclear, the terms “Jayhawk” and “Jayhawker” were originally used to describe raiders and looters during the period of unrest. This followed the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 when the Kansa settlers decided on the issue of slavery. Free-state proponents later used the term solely as a label for free-state proponents, and it eventually became associated with all Kansans.
During the civil war, Kansas suffered the highest rate of fatal casualties of any Union state.
Car Shipping To Kansas
Factors Affecting the Cost of Shipping to Kansas
1. Size of Vehicle
The size and weight of the vehicle greatly impact the cost of shipping. Vehicles with greater weights and larger sizes typically cost higher than smaller-sized vehicles. Heavy-duty vehicles usually require special accommodations such as more head space. Hence, they cost more than regular cars. Transporting larger vehicles demands higher fuel consumption which in turn leads to higher costs of shipment.
2. Timing
The cost of shipping vehicles varies at different times of the year. Winter and summer are usually the most expensive periods for car shipping. Summer is the most conducive weather to ship and this results in higher demand for shipping companies. The increased demand consequently leads to increased costs of shipping.
Shipping during winter tends to be more difficult due to the often slippery state of roads in this weather. This results in the increased cost of shipping vehicles to Kansas.
3. Location
The distance covered while shipping a vehicle affects its shipping cost. The farther the vehicle’s location from Kansas, the higher the cost. Shipping vehicles from farther locations means a longer time is spent in transit and this in turn leads to higher fuel consumption and increased costs.
Additionally, the location it is being shipped from determines its cost. Popular and largely populated areas cost less than areas that are not frequently visited. Areas not frequently visited are oftentimes difficult to access.
4. Carrier Options
There are two ways your vehicle can be shipped:
Open Carrier
This method transports a higher number of vehicles at the same time. While this method is significantly cheaper, it leaves your vehicle exposed to harsh weather elements. It is also a faster method and is offered by most cat shipping companies in Kansas.
Enclosed Carrier
This method comes at a higher price but provides greater protection for your vehicle. The enclosed carrier option is recommended if you plan to ship a high-end vehicle such as an exotic or antique car to Kansas. It ensures that your vehicle is not exposed to rain, sun, or even dust.
Also, the delivery method plays a critical role in the cost of shipping. Terminal-to-terminal deliveries are usually cheaper than door-to-door deliveries.
Choosing the Ideal Car Shipping Company in Kansas
Finding the best car shipping company is very important as it determines if you get a positive car shipping experience. Factors to consider before choosing a car shipping company in Kansas include:
1. Insurance Coverage
Inquiries should be made to confirm that the intended company will provide insurance for your vehicle in the event of any damage in the car shipping process. Car shipping companies are legally obliged to have liability insurance.
The liability insurance covers damages done to your vehicle in the process of loading, unloading, and transportation. It however does not cover damages from the vehicle’s normal operation such as worn-out parts.
There are varying insurance options and the condition of your vehicle determines which option is most suitable.
2. Payment Options
Most companies require a small deposit at the time of dispatch and full payment on delivery of your vehicle with cash or a certified check at the point of pick-up or drop-off. At other times, discounts are offered when payment is made beforehand. Always be wary of companies who want a full payment prior to dispatch.
3. Cancellation Policy
In the event that you have to cancel your order, ensure that the cancellation policy of your shipping company is favourable to you. Some companies require a deposit to be paid in advance while some only ask for a nominal fee.
Also, some companies will hold on to a part of your deposit when cancellation is made after the shipment has been booked or if the carrier has already been dispatched.
Although cancellation fees are to be deducted, they should not be overcharged.
4. Ease of Communication
Before selecting a car shipping company, observe their ability to communicate. Ensure that their contact support staff are patient enough to explain all procedures to you. This eliminates every form of ambiguity and makes conflict resolution easier if the need arises.
Before you Ship Your Car
While the shipping company does the bulk of the work, there are a few things you ought to do before your car is put on the auto carrier.
They are:
Ensure the gas tank is only a quarter filled. This reduces the overall weight of your car which in turn reduces your shipping costs. A quarter-filled tank is sufficient to load and offload your car from pick-up to drop-off.
Inspect and ascertain there are no leaks in your car. If any is found, fix it before dropping it off. Dispatching a leaking car can damage other cars and some carrier companies will outrightly refuse to dispatch such cars.
Choose the most suitable shipping option for your car.

The state’s only major commercial (Class C) airport is Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport. It is located along the US-54 on the western edge of the city. The Manhattan Regional Airport in Manhattan is another one of its airports. It provides daily flights to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. This makes it the second-largest commercial airport in the state. Most air travelers in north-eastern Kansas fly out of Kansas City International Airport located in Platte County, Missouri. They also make use of the Topeka Regional Airport in the state’s capital.
In the state’s south-eastern region, people often use Tulsa International Airport in Tulsa, Oklahoma, or the Joplin Regional Airport in Joplin, Missouri. For those in the far western part of the state, Denver International Airport is a popular option. Connecting flights are also available from smaller Kansas airports in Dodge City, Garden City, Hays, Hutchinson, Liberal, or Salina.
Dotted across the state are smaller regional and municipal airports, including the Lawrence Municipal Airport. The Lawrence Municipal Airport houses many aircraft for the city of Lawrence, the University of Kansas, Miami County Airport, Wamego Airport, Osage City Municipal Airport, (which is the headquarters of Skydive Kansas), Garden City Regional Airport, Manhattan Regional Airport, and Dodge City Regional Airport.
The Southwest Chief Amtrak route runs through the state from Chicago to Los Angeles. Rail stops in Kansas are Lawrence, Topeka, Newton, Hutchinson, Dodge City, and Garden City. An Amtrak Thruway Motorcoach connects Newton and Wichita to the Heartland Flyer in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Amtrak is proposing to modify the Southwest Chief from its status as a direct passenger rail operation. Plans call for shortening the route from Los Angeles to Albuquerque. Thruway buses would replace the train on the route between Albuquerque and Dodge City, where train services east to Chicago would resume.
Apart from passenger carrying, Kansas also carries out its freight services through four Class I railroads; Amtrak, BNSF, Kansas City Southern, and Union Pacific, as well as many short-line railroads.
Two Interstate highways serve the Kansas state. The highways have one beltway, two spur routes, and three bypasses, with over 874 miles (1,407 km) in all. Interstate 70 (I-70) was the first section of the interstate to be opened in the nation. It was opened on the 14th of November 1956 and is located just west of Topeka.
I-70 is a major east-west route connecting Denver, Colorado, and Kansas City, Missouri. Cities along this route (from west to east) include Colby, Hays, Salina, Junction City, Topeka, Lawrence, Bonner Springs, and Kansas City.
I-35 is a major north-south route connecting Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and Des Moines, Iowa. Cities along this route (from south to north) include Wichita, El Dorado, Emporia, Ottawa, and Kansas City (and suburbs).
Spur routes serve as connections between the two major routes. I-135, a north-south route, connects I-35 at Wichita to I-70 at Salina. I-335, a southwest-northeast route, connects I-35 at Emporia to I-70 at Topeka. I-335 and portions of I-35 and I-70 make up the Kansas Turnpike.
Bypasses include I-470 around Topeka, I-235 around Wichita, and I-670 in downtown Kansas City. I-435 is a beltway around the Kansas City metropolitan area while I-635 bypasses Kansas City.
U.S. Route 69 (US-69) travels south to north, from Oklahoma to Missouri. The highway passes through the eastern section of Kansas, traveling through Baxter Springs, Pittsburgh, Frontenac, Fort Scott, Louisburg, and the Kansas City area.
Kansas also has the country’s third-largest state highway system after Texas and California. This is because of the high number of counties and county seats (105) and their intertwining.
By dialing short-code 511, callers will get access to information about road conditions, construction, closures, detours, and weather conditions for the state highway system. Weather and road condition information is updated every 15 minutes.
Kansas has access to 122 miles of the Missouri River along the northeast corner of the state. There are eight commercial terminals located near Atchison, Leavenworth, Lansing, White Cloud, and Kansas City. The Port of Kansas City, Woodswether Terminal, is located within a mile of downtown Kansas City and the interstate highway loop at river mile 367.1 on the south bank of the Missouri River.
Foodstuffs, fertilizer, scrap steel, cement, and other raw materials, as well as machinery, make up the bulk of shipments. The shipping season generally lasts between eight and nine months.
The Port of Catoosa, an inland seaport located near Tulsa, Oklahoma, is approximately 50 miles from the Kansas border. South Kansas, Oklahoma Railroad, and the BNSF Railway provide direct rail access to the Port. It is a year-round, economical alternative to other means of traveling. It is especially advantageous to businesses manufacturing large goods that need to be assembled before shipping.

Pepper Long is a dedicated worker that stays on the phone until her customers needs are met. Not only is she courteous, professional, and a joy to deal with, but her time is used wisely and she arranged for my '47 Indian chief to be delivered ahead of schedule with a professional driver, keeping me in the loop as to where and when the arrival would happen. The Indian was secured greatly covered in blankets with not a scratch on it. Ask for Pepper and rest assured you'll be in good hands!

I had a car shipped to my son stationed in Hawaii in the army. Lawrence was extremely helpful and patient walking me through the process. I was very nervous as the car was my deceased husbands 2001 Monte. It had lot of sentimental value. It got there 1 week sooner than expected. Thank you!

I had a truck I needed to ship from California to Texas. I check around to see who had he better rate and Service. I found Ship a Car Inc was the one for me. They were a little high in price, but you can’t beat the service. The Agent I was working with was Bob. He held my hand throughout the whole process. Even after my truck was delivered, he call me up to see if everything went OK and If I had any questions. Would I use Ship a Car Inc again? Yes, for sure. Ask for Bob.

This was my first time ever transporting a car and I have nothing but great things to say about the experience! My contact, Bob, was unbelievably helpful. Walked me though everything and made it unbelievably easy! The driver showed up to the exact location and was very professional. The transportation from origin to destination was very fast as well. My only complaint was I was not given a photo of my driver so it took a couple of minutes to verify that the guy picking up my car was the correct person. But the driver was very understanding and super helpful in the verification process. I would recommend this comanpy to anyone transporting their vehicle to any part of the country, especially if this is your first time ever trying to do so.

I couldn't have asked for better service. Janet was friendly, had a sense of humor, and got the job done. Within a few hours of my call, I had my car scheduled to be picked up the same day, at a cost that was lower than all the other "instant quote" places. I was waiting for 2 weeks for the dealership to find a shipper- she explained simply why it wasn't working, and fixed it. Couldn't be happier, money well spent here.

I recently purchased a Cutlass Supreme and initially used another carrier. I called my initial carrier to get a status and was told it would take 4 weeks to have my car picked up. I cancelled my order and I contacted Ship a Car. I spoke to Willie and made arrangements to have my car transported via an enclosed carrier. Within an hour, Willie called me back and my car was picked up that night and arrived in NY in 2 days. The car arrived with no issues. Willie was responsive and communicated all the steps the entire way. I would highly recommend them.

I can't say enough good things about this company and specifically Bob Moran. Bob has now helped me with shipping two of my family's vehicles (MI to CA in 2016 and CA to NY). The first time I worked with him he was saving me because another company never showed up. And today when I worked with him he helped me get our car to NY where my fiancé has just started his new job. I spoke to him for the first time about it this morning and we have the car getting picked up at my home tomorrow morning. He made me feel like family and made something (shipping your car across the country), that I consider being stressful, so simple and easy. I am beyond impressed with Bob's customer service and the work he does. Any time I hear that someone needs to ship a car I will be throwing Bob's information at them and maybe even offer to set it up for them because it was that pleasant of an experience. Thank you so much, Bob! Looking forward to working with you again in the future.

I needed to transport my car from Kentucky to Nevada. I requested a quote and received one via email. I then received a phone call from Bob M. Bob worked with me explaining the process for shipping a car and once I had sent in my paperwork he went to work finding a driver to transport my car. When the first driver's dispatcher called to let me know my driver's truck broke down, I immediately called Bob and explained the situation. He got to work finding a new driver for my car. Having Bob on my side, to arrange this transport was a huge relief to me and I was glad to know that things would be taken care of. My car arrived on time (actually it was there before I was expecting it) and l was very pleased with this company. I would highly recommend them and Bob M. to anyone looking to ship a vehicle safely and with no worries. Thank you.

Shipped two vehicles from Nevada to Kansas
Kristina V and Ship A Car booking people made our transport experience... A positive experience. Can not say enough about the calm, confident manner they had with handling details and getting our vehicles moved to their new home.. It is so stressful finding people that you can trust to do what they say they can do... This was just a wonderful blessing to us... Everything went smooth and delivery was GREAT! These two vehicles had to come 1577 miles. Cost was fair for shipping both vehicles... Just can not express, the sincere, happiness we felt to see these vehicles reach their final home... These people KNOW what they are doing to help others... I appreciate them helping us out... It was a remarkable, good experience finding this service.

Unlike some of the other reviewers I had an excellent experience with this company. I was getting quotes from several companies. I spoke with Justin and he offered me a quote that was a little higher then another place but he said he could ship my car to CA fast. He called me shortly after and had everything set up. I was nervous bc this was my first time having to ship a car and I was moving it across the country. I had to call him back a couple times as questions came up and he always answered. Even on Saturday. The pick up day came and my car was picked up no issues. It was delivered in the exact timeframe that justin quoted. My uncle had to meet the driver at a shopping plaza but that was ok bc I was warned that the truck may be too big to get down my street. Justin called afterwards to make sure everything went as planned. No damage to the car. Will use again when I have to ship the car back east next year.

Where do I start! I am completely satisfied with the service from the get-go. You were extremely helpful and answered any question I had and I didn't have to wait, you responded almost immediately. You found me a driver 2 days before my car had to be picked and my car was delivered in 2 days, I can see why Ship A Car in rated #1. Not only for there on time promises but for there customer service, interaction, and satisfaction. I will definitely keep Ship A Car as my one and only choice when I decided to ship a car again, and I will be doing this again soon. I will also be requesting you next time as well! Let me know how I can pass this info onto your supervisor so I can let him know how satisfied I am with everything you did for me.
Lastly, the driver was also very easy to get a hold of. Weather it was a text or phone call he was extremely easy to contact. He was very flexible as well. Due to work I didn't think I would be able to make it to Green Bay when the driver delivered the car so I shared this with my driver. I asked him if it would be ok to re-route my car to Coleman where I live instead of Green Bay because it was easier for my work schedule. Once I made my request he called me and said that was not a problem at all and he was extremely friendly about it, what a relief for me. I appreciate all the flexibility and friendliness that was directed toward me from the get-go. Please relay this message to the drivers supervisor as well. Thanks again and let me know how I can help your company by submitting reviews! Have a great week.

I booked vehicle transport with Ship A car Inc, twice in the past month. The first, the seller cancelled the sale the day that the hauler was scheduled for pick up. YIKES! Contacted Lisa from Ship A Car and she handled everything. I found another BMW K75 for sale, bought it..., and the first call that I made was to Lisa from Ship A Car. Once again, Lisa and Ship A Car Inc. handled everything exceptionally well. Vehicle pick-up and delivery by a company specializing in motorcycle transport. The vehicle arrived earlier than expected (2 days instead of 4) and in perfect condition. Lisa was great at communicating via email and phone (even for a customer that doesn't have an umbilical to his phone.) Would use them again..., in a second!

We strongly recommend contacting a shipping company directly. For the $225 fee we had little or no communication from pick-up (we were able to find the name/number of the driver we were told was going to pick up our bike -- but he was unaware he was supposed to pick it up and wouldn't have on the scheduled day had we not contacted him) until delivery unless we initiated and tracked down individuals, most of who were drivers and unable to assist us as to located the bike and determining a deliver date. The estimated delivery date was off by a full week and attempts to find a more accurate delivery date was unsuccessful (though we did manage to contact a driver that left the bike in Oklahoma City -- though courtesous and wanting to be helpful, couldn't help us). We received less than 24 hours notice of delivery. Finally, even the payment instructions were in error so that when the bike was finally delivered, the form of payment (a cashier's check as we were instructed to prepare) was not correct. We ended up paying by credit card, not a problem, but seems like a simple detail that a brokerage company should be aware of. Instead, we wasted time one evening to go to our bank to secure an unnecessary cashier's check. My advice? Bypass this broker company and contact shipper directly. We gained no advantage or service worth the $225 on top of the $525 to ship the bike. We could have saved $225 OR spent the combined $750 on renting a truck, fuel and one night hotel to transport it ourselves with more predictability.

Ship a car did a wonderful job shipping my cousins car. Sam was so nice and helpful with dealing with my father. My father was trying to take care of this transaction and make all the arrangements. I was the middle person to just clarify some things. Sam took the time to explain to me of everything that was happening and told me what was required from me/my dad. It takes a lot of patience for someone to figure out the details of delivering a car. I will probably use this company if I ever need to ship a car. Thank you ship a car and also thank you Sam for the great service!!!!!

This was my first time using Ship A Car, and overall it was a really good experience. I shipped my Lexus from Manhattan to Michigan. Initially, I was really nervous about sending my vehicle. I went with Ship A Car after reading through some of their positive reviews. The only reason I rated them as a 4 instead of a 5 was because of a $200 price jump. I was informed this might happen due to the delivery destination, but still, extra costs are extra costs. Other than that, I had an excellent experience. They did a really good job with handling my Lexus. The shipment took about 2 days. There was no damage and the vehicle wasn't dirty when I received it. I would recommend them.

The hallmark of a good company is not if there is ever a problem but HOW they handle the problem. Turns out the problem I had was initially a major pain and hardship to both of us due to the unscrupulousness of the subcontractor. It happens. They figured out how to circumvent a checks and balances process. Ship a Car realized that, changed their process, and took care of the situation. Kudos to them. Now...would ship again in a heartbeat. Thank you all. Ps. When you ship takes well before and after pics. Don't let the shipper driver rush you. It's your multi-thousand dollar possession. Good luck all.

Len walked me through the process and answered the million questions I had like a consumate professional.
I felt very comfortable making a decision to let them haul my cars. I felt very informed by all parties involved. I felt like my cars were in safe hands. The delivery was early and the pickup was on time. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good experience.

We were very pleased with the services that Ship a Car Inc. delivered. Ms. Janet was such of great support with guiding us throughout the whole process. We felt very well informed especially since this was out first experience with transporting a vehicle.

SHIP A CAR is pretty straight forward. They're a little more expensive than other quotes out there. They assured me they would pick up and drop the car off at a certain place and time and actually followed through. Other car shipping services don't seem to be as reliable. The outside of the car was a bit dirty which is understandable since they shipped it cross-country, so we just got it washed. I would recommend people to use them.

I had been looking for someone to ship my car for three weeks. I needed my car shipped from Alabama to Texas. The pickup location was kind of out of the way so I feel like that is why it was a longer process! However ship a car inc was the third company I found and had someone to pick my car up within a week! The price was a little higher but I felt that was due to the pickup location of my car. It was picked up on Thursday and delivered the next day! The only issue I ran into was a language barrier with the driver. However, he was very nice and understanding! I will book with this company again.

Bob was AMAZING! I was in such a bind and had just found out some bad news about my dad's health. Bob was very understanding and turned my situation into a positive one. He was very quick at responding back to me and very knowledgeable. It put my mind at ease and all I had to do was sit back and wait for my car to come. It took little time to travel from WA to VA and the driver was very nice as well. Bob called to check up on how the delivery went and that in itself was really nice! Showed me he truly cares about his customers! I will definitely be using this service again and have already recommended Bob to a few friends. I can't thank Bob enough for being a Knowledgeable and caring person!

As it was our first time shipping a car, we had lots of questions. I worked with Dana Briones who was very helpful. The car as promised arrived with no issues.

Contacted Nicole at "Ship a Car" about transporting vehicle from MI to NC. She had a driver dispatched in a 24 hours! Costs was reasonable, but most importantly, the actual costs didn't change from the quoted costs. Excellent Service. Thx Nicole.
