Shipping a car in St. Petersburg
St. Petersburg is one of the larger markets in Pinellas County, Florida, with roughly 267,102 residents, the 5th largest of the Florida cities we cover. In a city this size the harder part of a booking is usually access rather than finding a truck: a full-size car hauler runs about 75 feet and needs somewhere it can legally stop and turn. Confirm the loading point when you book rather than leaving it to the driver on the day.
St. Petersburg works as a standalone pickup within reach of Clearwater (15 mi), Tampa (15 mi) and Bradenton (20 mi). A Florida run through this area may take in Clearwater on the same trip before heading out on I-75, I-95, and Florida's Turnpike. That is why pickup is quoted as a window of days rather than a set hour: the arrival time depends on the stops booked around yours.
Distances from St. Petersburg to the larger markets around it: Jacksonville, FL at about 225 road miles, Miami, FL at about 245 road miles and Savannah, GA at about 370 road miles. Distance decides more of a long-distance rate than anything else, so those numbers are where a quote starts. Our published corridors of comparable length, 105 to 375 miles, quote $400 to $700 for a sedan on an open trailer, which is the frame for a quote from here rather than a price for it.
Elsewhere in Pinellas County we also collect in Clearwater. A booking that shares a truck with a neighbouring pickup is usually the cheaper option, so it is worth mentioning if you are moving more than one vehicle.

Before you book
Carrier checks and vehicle preparation are the same for a St. Petersburg pickup as for any other, so they are covered once rather than on every city page. Before pickup, ask for the carrier's MC or USDOT number to look up on FMCSA SAFER and for its cargo insurance certificate. How to prepare your car for shipping covers the wash, fuel level and personal items, and the Bill of Lading guide explains the condition report you sign at both ends.
