Shipping a car in Vancouver

Vancouver sits in Clark County, Washington and has about 198,992 residents, the 4th largest of the Washington cities we cover. Places this size are typically served as part of a wider regional run rather than as a dedicated trip, so the pickup date generally has more give in it than the delivery window does. Booking a few days early is what buys you a choice of dates.

Vancouver works as a standalone pickup within reach of Camas (8 mi), Washougal (15 mi) and Kelso (35 mi). A Washington run through this area may take in Camas on the same trip before heading out on I-5, I-90, and I-82. 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 Vancouver to the larger markets around it: Seattle, WA at about 165 road miles, Spokane, WA at about 340 road miles and Boise, ID at about 415 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 310 miles, quote $400 to $650 for a sedan on an open trailer, which is the frame for a quote from here rather than a price for it.

Elsewhere in Clark County we also collect in Camas and Washougal. 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 Vancouver 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.
