OPEN car shipping

Open carriers handle most Yonkers vehicle moves because the economics work: significantly cheaper rates with reliable availability. Your car rides on an exposed multi-vehicle hauler alongside others, streamlining scheduling and keeping logistics manageable. The exposure means weather and road conditions may create some dirt, salt, or grime accumulation, so factor in time for a thorough wash after your vehicle arrives.

ENCLOSED car shipping

Some Yonkers vehicles justify enclosed protection. High-value cars, meticulously maintained classics, or luxury models all warrant the enclosed premium, as these trailers block road salt, winter precipitation, debris, and other corrosive elements. They also have hydraulic loading systems to prevent damage on low-clearance sports cars or modified vehicles, eliminating scraping risks during loading and unloading.

5 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Yonkers

  • Once you establish New York residency, you have 30 days to exchange your out-of-state license. This can be done at the Yonkers DMV office.
  • Yonkers’s hilly terrain and narrow residential streets create unique parking challenges. Many neighborhoods enforce alternate-side parking for street cleaning, and some areas require residential permits. Research parking rules for your specific neighborhood to avoid getting ticketed.
  • Stay up-to-date on local events and news, contact various government departments, and find employment opportunities on the City of Yonkers website
  • You’ll hit tolls on the New York State Thruway, bridges into Manhattan, and various Westchester parkways. If you’re shipping your vehicle out of Yonkers, remove the E-ZPass tag from your windshield and freeze your account to avoid phantom toll charges during transport.
  • Metro-North’s Hudson Line stops at multiple stations in Yonkers, connecting you to Grand Central in under 40 minutes. Many locals ditch car commuting entirely, relying on trains for Manhattan jobs while keeping vehicles strictly for local errands and weekend trips.

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 Yonkers 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.
