OPEN car shipping

Many choose open shipping for Lubbock car transport due to its economics and logistics. Exposed multi-car haulers cost substantially less than enclosed alternatives while maintaining solid availability even in this somewhat iunique market. Your vehicle rides uncovered during the journey, which means it may accumulate some dust along the way.

ENCLOSED car shipping

Premium vehicles demand premium protection, which is where enclosed trailers come in. With this method, showroom-condition classics, luxury cars, and other high-value vehicles stay covered for the entire journey, staying clean and free of damage that can be caused by road debris and weather.

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

  • Texas gives you a 30-day registration window after buying a vehicle or establishing Lubbock residency.
  • Converting your out-of-state license to a Texas one isn’t urgent—you get 90 days after residency kicks in.
  • Lubbock weather swings dramatically. Summers hit triple digits while winter ice storms can shut down the city. Prepare your vehicle for temperature extremes with quality tires and regular maintenance, especially if you’re moving from milder climates.
  • Discover the Hub City through the City of Lubbock website. Explore Buddy Holly’s birthplace history, catch Red Raiders games at Texas Tech, visit the windmill collection at the American Wind Power Center, or experience authentic West Texas culture on the courthouse square downtown.
  • While you don't need a toll tag in Lubbock, you will need one if you travel to the state's major cities, as they have extensive toll road networks.

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 Lubbock 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.
