OPEN car shipping
An open trailer is a safe and reliable option and the most common type of transport used for Texas car shipping near you. With open transport, cars can easily be arranged and quickly loaded and unloaded, making this option efficient and cost-effective. Vehicles are not protected from weather and road conditions and may accumulate a bit of dirt during their journey, which is to be expected.
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 best for classic, exotic or luxury cars as well as motorcycles and powersports. Vehicles with low ground clearance may also require enclosed shipping, as the driver may need a hydraulic lift gate or ramp to load them onto the truck. Enclosed transport protects your vehicle from most weather and road hazards, offering additional peace of mind when shipping your prized possession.
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
- Enclosed carriers move fewer cars at once, which may drive up the cost

Top 5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Texas
- Vehicle registration. If you’re moving to Texas permanently and intend to establish residency, you will need to register your vehicle in the state. Texas requires vehicle registration within 30 days of moving to the state. Make sure to check the specific requirements and necessary documentation with the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
- Toll roads. Texas has an extensive toll road network, and so you should be aware of any tolls your vehicle may encounter during transport. Remove any tags or passes from your vehicle before shipment so you don’t incur tolls during transport.
- Insurance requirements. Texas requires all registered vehicles to have a minimum liability insurance coverage. Before shipping your car to Texas, ensure that your insurance policy meets the state’s requirements. You may need to contact your insurance provider to update your policy and ensure that your vehicle is adequately covered during transport and once it arrives in Texas.
- Vehicle inspection and emissions. Texas has specific requirements for vehicle inspections and emissions in order to ensure roadworthiness and environmental compliance. If your vehicle is due for an inspection or emissions testing, it’s recommended to have it done before or shortly after arrival in Texas
- Driving and car ownership in Texas. If you’re shipping your vehicle to Texas, it’s helpful to familiarize yourself with the state’s driving and car ownership laws. This includes understanding Texas traffic rules, vehicle registration renewal processes and any unique regulations or requirements that may differ from your previous state. The Texas DMV website provides detailed information on driving laws and car ownership guidelines for your reference.

Texas car shipping FAQs
What types of vehicles can I ship to or from Texas?
Montway ships all standard types of vehicles such as coupes, sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, minivans, and regular cargo and passenger vans. We can even arrange transport for EVs, motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, golf carts, snowmobiles and other vehicle types.
Can I ship a vehicle to or from Texas even 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 specialized equipment may be required to load and unload it on and off the truck. If your inoperable vehicle is not able to roll, break and steer it will require added equipment and work, which will be an additional expense.
What’s the cheapest way to ship a car to or from Texas?
A simple way to save money 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.
Can I have my vehicle delivered directly to my home in Texas?
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 Texas. 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 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.
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.
