OPEN car shipping

Open carriers dominate White Plains vehicle shipping due to its substantially lower rates paired with consistent availability. Your car shares space on an open-air hauler with other vehicles heading in similar directions, which keeps costs manageable and scheduling flexible for suburban pickups. During transport, your vehicle sits exposed to whatever weather hits the route, like rain, snow, or dust swept up from wind.

ENCLOSED car shipping

White Plains’ affluent location means plenty of high-value vehicles that warrant enclosed protection. Six-figure luxury sedans common in the area, meticulously maintained vintage cars, or exotic sports models all justify the premium pricing for covered transport. While in transit, enclosed trailers shield your vehicle from weather and road debris, and also accommodate lowered performance vehicles with ramps and hydraulic lift gates.

5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from White Plains

  • If moving to White Plains, you have 30 days after establishing New York residency to get a state license. Stop by the local DMV sooner rather than later to avoid fines and other penalties.
  • 511NY is helpful for White Plains commuters to monitor traffic conditions, especially during morning and evening rush hours.
  • Westchester County runs on E-ZPass. You’ll hit tolls on the New York State Thruway (I-87), bridges into Manhattan, and various parkways throughout the region. If you’re shipping your vehicle out of White Plains, remove your E-ZPass transponder and pause your account to avoid toll charges while your car is being transported.
  • Metro-North Railroad connects White Plains directly to Grand Central Terminal, making car-free commuting to Manhattan feasible. Many White Plains residents use a single-car household strategy, relying on trains or NYC commutes while keeping one vehicle for local errands and weekend activities.

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 White Plains 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.
