OPEN car shipping

Most Santa Fe vehicles ship on an open carrier. It’s a cost-effective method that still provides reliable transport service. Since your car travels uncovered, it may accumulate some level of dust and debris over the course of the journey—all of which can be removed with a car wash upon arrival.

ENCLOSED car shipping

It’s not shocking to see premium vehicles driving through Santa Fe’s historic plaza streets. Enclosed transport protects these vehicles, with full coverage that blocks out brutal sun, extreme weather conditions, and road grime. Hydraulic loading also eliminates scraping damage for low clearance cars.

5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Santa Fe

  • Santa Fe has multiple MVD locations where you can apply for a New Mexico license and register your vehicle. Bring your title, insurance, and proof of Santa Fe residency.
  • Altitude affects everything at 7,000 feet, including your vehicle. Engine performance changes, tire pressure fluctuates, fluids evaporate faster in thin air. If relocating from sea level, budget for altitude-related adjustments and more frequent maintenance checks.
  • High value-vehicles and collectibles ship here regularly. To shield these models from brutal sun that can damage interiors and finishes, we recommend enclosed transport.
  • If relocating for state government work, understand that the state capitol parking downtown is limited and requires permits for employees. Finding parking involves waitlists and costs—many state workers live outside downtown and commute.
  • The New Mexico Department of Transportation provides real-time road conditions, essential for monitoring mountain weather.

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 Santa Fe 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.
