OPEN car shipping

Most cars shipped to or from Edison travel in open trailers. Open car shipping is safe and reliable, plus its wide availability reduces wait times and keeps costs down. The only downside to open trailers is vehicles are not protected from weather or road debris, so they may arrive ready for a wash.

ENCLOSED car shipping

If you’re shipping a rare or high-value vehicle, enclosed transport offers the highest level of care. Enclosed trailers protect against weather and road debris that open trailers cannot. Plus these trailers are often equipped with specialized ramps and lifts making loading low-clearance vehicles much safer.

5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Edison

  • Before shipping your car to or from New Jersey, make sure your insurance policy meets the state’s minimum requirements. New Jersey requires all registered vehicles to have liability insurance coverage.
  • New Jersey has an extensive network of toll roads, so be aware of any tolls your vehicle may encounter during transport. Remove any E-ZPass transponders or toll tags from.
  • If you’re relocating to New Jersey permanently, you’ll need to register your vehicle in the state. It’s important to complete the registration process within 60 days to ensure compliance with the state’s regulations.
  • New Jersey has specific requirements for vehicle inspections and emissions testing to promote road safety and environmental preservation. If your vehicle is due for an inspection or emissions testing, it’s recommended to have it done before or shortly after arrival in New Jersey.
  • Drive smart and stay informed—get to know New Jersey’s driving and car ownership laws if you’re shipping your vehicle to the state. This includes local traffic rules, vehicle and any unique regulations or requirements that may differ from your previous state.

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.

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 (or battery charge between 45 and 65% for EVs) to be sure it can be loaded and unloaded.

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.

A simple way to save money on your Edison car shipping 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.
