Terminal to Terminal Car Shipping

Terminal-to-terminal car shipping is a cost-saving auto transport method where you drop off your vehicle at a designated terminal or hub near your origin, and pick it up at a terminal near your destination. This eliminates the need for a carrier to drive to your specific address, reducing costs significantly.

Terminal-to-terminal shipping typically saves $100 to $300 compared to door-to-door service. The savings come from carriers being able to optimize their routes by loading and unloading multiple vehicles at a single hub location rather than making individual stops.

Shipping terminals are typically located in or near major metropolitan areas along interstate highways. Best American Auto Transport Inc works with terminals across the country including in California, Texas, Florida, New York, Virginia, and other major shipping hubs.

Yes. Terminal-to-terminal shipping uses the same fully insured, FMCSA-approved carriers as door-to-door service. Your vehicle is loaded, secured, and transported with the same care. Terminals are secure, fenced facilities where vehicles are stored safely until pickup.

Most terminals allow vehicles to be stored for 1 to 5 business days after arrival at no extra charge. If you need more time, extended storage may be available for an additional daily fee. We recommend arranging pickup as soon as possible after your vehicle arrives.
