What customers say about shipping a car to or from Pittsburgh with Montway:
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
This was my second time using Montway to arrange enclosed transport of my Corvette. Montway did a great job picking up & delivering my vehicle. Thank you Montway!
I have used Montway twice, and they were excellent both times with my nice cars. I used enclosed transport.
Had to ship my son’s van from Dunedin, FL to the Air Force base in CA. From start to finish Montway Auto Transport was amazing! Fast, affordable, and the communication was flawless!
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.

OPEN car shipping
Open transport is the most common shipping method, used by individuals shipping their vehicles, dealerships, manufacturers, and more. Because vehicles can be easily loaded, unloaded, and arranged on open trailers, this is a cost-effective and efficient method for Pittsburgh car shipping near you. These trailers are uncovered, so cars may arrive at their destination with dust and dirt from the road.
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
Enclosed transport is the preferred method for shipping classic, exotic, or luxury vehicles. With enclosed shipping, vehicles are protected from road hazards and inclement weather, offering you additional peace of mind. Enclosed trailers are also often equipped with hydraulic ramps and lift gates, which may be required to load and unload 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

5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Pittsburgh
- There are toll roads throughout the greater Pittsburgh area and the state of Pennsylvania. They can be paid by plate, the PA Toll Pay App, or E-ZPass. If you already have an E-ZPass or toll transponder, remember to remove it before shipping your vehicle to avoid undue tolls during transit.
- If you’re moving to Pittsburgh and becoming a permanent resident, you will need to register your vehicle within 20 days of moving to Pennsylvania.
- Pennsylvania requires all registered vehicles to have a minimum liability insurance coverage. You will be required to provide proof of insurance when registering your vehicle in the state.
- Vehicles registered in Allegheny, Beaver, Washington, and Westmoreland counties must take an emissions test. This includes the Pittsburgh region.
- If you’re transporting an ATV or snowmobile to the state of Pennsylvania, you can register your vehicles by calling the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources at 1-866-545-2476.

Pittsburgh car shipping FAQs
How much does it cost to ship a car from Pittsburgh?
When shipping your vehicle to or from Pittsburgh, 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 in 2025 from Pittsburgh would cost about $1.85/mile. Medium distances (500-1,500 miles) average $0.91/mile, which means traveling 1,100 miles from Pittsburgh to Oklahoma City, would cost about $1,000. For longer distances (1,500+) the rate drops to approximately $0.59 per mile.
Is my car insured while transporting it to or from Pittsburgh Beach?
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.
How should I prepare my car for shipment?
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. If you’re shipping an electric vehicle, ensure the battery charge is between 40-60%.
What’s the cheapest way to ship a car to or from Pittsburgh?
A simple way to save money on your Pittsburgh 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. Discover more interesting cheap car shipping tips to help keep money in your pocket.
Can I have my vehicle delivered directly to my home in Pittsburgh?
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 Pittsburgh. 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.
