OPEN car shipping

Open car shipping is the most popular transport method on the market. This shipping option is used by most customers and even dealerships to deliver cars to their lots. With open transport, loading and unloading vehicles is easy, making for a quick and affordable process. Cars on open transport trailers might pick up some dirt during transit, but this is a normal part of the process. The truckers in our network handle every vehicle carefully for a safe delivery.

ENCLOSED car shipping

If you have a prized hot rod in your collection, a customized Jeep or specialty vehicles like ATVs or golf carts, then enclosed shipping is for you. For vehicles with low ground clearance, you’ll likely need a hydraulic lift gate to load and unload them, and that equipment is only available with enclosed car shipping. Enclosed transport also protects your vehicle from most weather and road hazards, offering additional peace of mind when shipping to or from Delaware.

Top 5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Delaware

  • Delaware has three toll roads, located in Newark, Middletown and Dover. Make sure you have your E-ZPass set up or cash on hand if you’re traveling one of these roads. If you’re shipping your car to or from Delaware, remove your E-Zpass to avoid fees during transport.
  • If you’re moving to Delaware, you have 60 days to title and register your vehicle after becoming a resident in the state. Get registered as soon as you can to avoid fees or penalties.
  • In addition to registering your vehicle, you’ll also need the minimum Delaware liability insurance coverage, along with a valid Delaware insurance ID card.
  • Delaware requires all drivers to pass a biennial emissions test (that’s once every other year). Inspections are free of charge.
  • Driving in Delaware is generally smooth, as the state doesn’t get much hazardous weather. It’s always smart to slow down and stay alert during rain or winter, especially during the snowy seasons up north.

Delaware car shipping FAQs

A simple way to save money is by opting for open auto transport rather than enclosed. You can also save money by keeping your pickup date flexible, meeting your truck driver near a main route and avoiding seasonal demand.

We suggest the car is clean so that any existing damage is fully visible. Remove any personal items, especially anything of value. Also remove automatic toll devices and disable any kind of security system which could give the trucker trouble when loading or unloading the vehicle. Finally, leave a quarter tank of gas in the vehicle to be sure there is enough for loading and unloading.

Yes, your vehicle will be covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance. Additionally, Montway has its own contingent cargo insurance which protects you for up to $250,000 should the trucker’s policy fail to fully cover a valid claim.

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 specialized equipment will need to be used to load and unload it on and off the truck. If your inoperable vehicle is not able to roll, break and steer it will require added equipment and work, which will be an additional expense.

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 Delaware. 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.

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.
