Our driver arrived the day after talking to the Montway rep. He carefully loaded our car in his enclosed carrier. The next evening, he arrived with the car in the same shape it departed in.
On time, enclosed trailer, great communication, and got the car safely delivered. I would use Montway again.
Enclosed carrier, skillful driver, on time, delivered in perfect condition and a great price. Very happy

I have used Montway twice, and they were excellent both times with my nice cars. I used enclosed transport.

We recently used Montway Auto Transport to transport our car 1,330 miles from Wisconsin to Florida and back and the experience was virtually flawless from start to finish.
Montway and the carrier transported my vehicle from Englewood, FL to Nashua, NH. This is the second time I’ve used them and plan to do so again next winter. We were very pleased with them.
I used them to transport 2 Harley Davidson motorcycles from Oregon to Texas. They were both great experiences. Super nice, professional people from scheduling to delivery. I highly recommend Montway.

OPEN car shipping
Open transport is the most popular shipping option due to its safety, dependability, and the large number of available trailers. Since vehicles are easily loaded, unloaded, and positioned on these open trailers, it’s a cost-effective and efficient method for Baltimore car shipping. As these trailers are uncovered, cars might arrive with some road dust and dirt.
Learn more about open car shipping.
Pros
- More affordable than shipping in an enclosed trailer
- Higher availability, making it easier to book your preferred date
- More fuel efficient than enclosed transportation
Cons
- Vehicles are exposed to the elements during transit
- Trailers often cannot accommodate vehicles with low ground clearance
- Less security and protection from vandalism
ENCLOSED car shipping
For classic, exotic, or luxury vehicles, enclosed transport is the optimal choice. Enclosed shipping safeguards vehicles from road hazards and harsh weather, providing enhanced security. These trailers feature hydraulic ramps and lift gates, which are often needed for loading and unloading vehicles with low ground clearance.
Learn more about enclosed car shipping.
Pros
- Vehicles are more protected from the elements and vandalism
- Often equipped with ramps to load vehicles with lower ground clearance
- Accommodates multiple vehicle types, including motorcycles
Cons
- Less affordable than shipping a vehicle on an open trailer
- Lower availability can make scheduling pickup and dropoff more difficult
- Enclosed carriers move fewer cars at once, which may drive up the cost

4 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Baltimore
- If you’re moving to Baltimore as a permanent resident, you’ll need to register your vehicle within 60 days of relocating and pass a vehicle safety inspection.
- Vehicle insurance is mandatory in Baltimore and throughout the state of Maryland. Drivers are also required to carry a minimum of insurance.
- Familiarize yourself with toll locations around Baltimore and the state of Maryland. Payments are collected through E-ZPass, Pay-By-Plate, and video tolling. Be sure to remove your E-ZPass when shipping your vehicle to avoid undue fees during transit.
- Vehicles registered in the state of Maryland need to take an emissions test every 2 years. These tests will usually coincide with the vehicle’s registration renewal date. Hybrid vehicles must get a smog check once they are 3 years old.
Baltimore car shipping FAQs
How much does it cost to ship a car from Baltimore?
When shipping your vehicle to or from Baltimore, several factors influence the cost. The type of vehicle, chosen shipping method, and distance all play significant roles in determining the price.
For example, shipping a vehicle up to 500 miles from Baltimore would cost about $1.85/mile. Medium distances (500-1,500 miles) average $0.91/mile, which means traveling 1,300 miles from Baltimore to Oklahoma City, would cost about $1,183. For longer distances (1,500+) the rate drops to approximately $0.59 per mile.

How do I pay for my Baltimore auto transport service?
You can choose to pay in full online, Montway accepts all major credit cards and PayPal. You can also pay in cash at the time of delivery. If you choose to pay in cash, there is a small partial payment of $249 or less (depending on the distance of your shipment) when you place your order to secure your car’s spot on a truck.
Can I ship personal items in my car?
With Montway you can have one piece of luggage in the trunk free of charge. This could be a box, suitcase or bag, weighing no more than 100 lbs.
Can I have my vehicle delivered directly to my home in Baltimore?
With Montway’s door-to-door service, you can have your car picked up anywhere in the U.S. and dropped off at your home address in the Baltimore area. Keep in mind that local streets may need to accommodate a car carrier trailer that can be up to 80 feet in length and weigh 80 tons. Your driver will work with you to find a safe meeting place near your home if your location isn’t legally or physically accessible.
Can I still ship my vehicle if it isn’t running?
Yes! Even if your car, truck, van or other vehicle is inoperable, we are still able to transport it. Be sure to indicate this when booking your shipment, since a specialized winch will need to be used to load and unload it on and off the truck. The added equipment and work will be an additional expense.
