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.
This is the fourth year I have used Montway to transport my motorcycle from Chicago to La Jolla, CA and back. They did a great job providing enclosed transportation for my motorcycle.

Vehicles are easily loaded, unloaded, and arranged on open carriers, making them an efficient and budget-friendly choice.

Learn more about open car shipping.
Pros

- 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

- Less security and protection from vandalism

4 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Louisville
- If you’re moving to Louisville from another state and becoming a Kentucky resident, you’ll need to transfer your out-of-state driver’s license within 30 days. All vehicles must be registered within 15 days of arriving in Kentucky.
- There are toll roads and bridges throughout Louisville and the state of Kentucky. If you have a RiverLink toll transponder, remove it while your car is being shipped to avoid incurring fees during transport.
- All motor vehicle owners in Kentucky must carry minimum liability coverage: $25,000 for all claims for bodily injury damages sustained by any one person and at least $50,000 for all bodily injury damages, as well as $25,000 for all property damage. Alternatively, a policy with a single limit of $60,000.00 is acceptable
- Sending a car to a student at a Kentucky university, college, or technical school? Good news! The student is not required to transfer their license, but must have their student ID with them while driving.

Louisville car shipping FAQs
How much does it cost to ship a car from Louisville?
When shipping your vehicle to or from Louisville, 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 Louisville would cost about $1.85/mile. Medium distances (500-1,500 miles) average $0.91/mile, which means traveling 750 miles from Louisville to Oklahoma City, would cost about $683. For longer distances (1,500+) the rate drops to approximately $0.59 per mile.
How do I get a quote for car shipping?

How do I pay for my Louisville 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 ship one piece of luggage free of charge. It must be secured in a box, suitcase, or bag, weighing no more than 100 lbs. For safety, the luggage must be stored in the trunk or back seat below window-level.
Can I have my vehicle delivered directly to my home in Louisville?
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 Louisville.
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.
