Vehicles are easy to load and unload, making it a fast and efficient choice for St. Louis car shipping. Keep in mind that since these are open trailers, your car may pick up some dust or road grime during transit.
Learn more about open car shipping.

- Higher availability, making it easier to book your preferred date
- More fuel efficient than enclosed transportation
Cons

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 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.
Can I have my vehicle delivered directly to my home in St. Louis?
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 St. Louis. 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.
