Route overview
Northeast out of Atlanta on I-85, through upstate South Carolina, Charlotte, Greensboro and Durham to Petersburg, Virginia. There I-95 takes over for Richmond, Washington, Baltimore, Delaware and the New Jersey Turnpike into New York.
The back half is the slow half. I-95 from Washington to New York is one of the most congested stretches of interstate in the country, and rush hour around Washington and Baltimore can eat hours of a driver’s day. A Northeast snowstorm can also push back a winter delivery.
In New York, a car coming off the truck needs a legal place to go right away. Before the delivery window opens, have a garage spot lined up or know which side of the street is legal that day.

Guides for a move of this type
- How to Prepare Your Car for Shipping An hour of prep a day or two before pickup keeps the pickup inspection quick and the delivery inspection simple.
- Door-to-Door or Terminal Car Shipping? Door-to-door pickup saves trips and storage fees; terminal drop-off can suit tight streets or flexible dates. How each one works and when to choose it.
- The Bill of Lading in Car Shipping The Bill of Lading is the condition report you sign at pickup and delivery. What goes on it, how to mark damage and why it decides any claim.
Recommended service
Pickup and delivery at your addresses, no terminal trip.
