"I transported 2 Jeep Grand Cherokees from CA to PA and could not have been more pleased. Equipment was top notch, driver was professional and exceedingly courteous, prices were in line and fair and vehicles arrived on time and in perfect condition."

"I had to have 2 vehicles picked up at a business in Tennessee and shipped to my shop in Philly. Very reasonable rates. Smooth transaction. Scheduled transport online. Received update messages (email/text) during entire transport. No problems."

"Road Runner was able to help us when another company that we had previously arranged with told us they couldn’t pick up our car just hours before they were supposed to arrive."

"I had an extremely positive experience with RoadRunner! The first thing I'd like to mention is that this company is a broker, but it's all done behind the scenes so you won't be inundated with calls and texts from multiple companies - RoadRunner will just reach out to you once an available carrier…"

Service Type

Open or Enclosed Transport for Connecticut to Pennsylvania?

Open car transport is the standard choice for most shipments and the most economical way to ship a daily driver, SUV, or truck. Your car rides with 8–10 others on a multi-vehicle trailer, driven on via built-in ramps and secured to the deck for the trip — the same way dealers move new inventory. See open auto transport for details.

Enclosed car shipping earns its premium of roughly 50% when the vehicle itself calls for it: luxury, classic, and exotic cars, a vehicle fresh off the dealer lot with no road miles, or anything you would not want exposed to weather and road debris. If you're weighing the two, our guide to the difference between enclosed and open auto transport covers it in detail.

Expedited shipping is also available when the calendar is not negotiable: guaranteed pickup windows and direct driver routes that get your vehicle there faster. It is the option time-sensitive moves lean on, from military relocations to students starting a new semester.

Getting Ready

Before the carrier arrives

Three things to handle between booking and pickup day. They take an hour in total and make both handoffs smooth.

1

Schedule in advance

Book 7–14 days ahead for the best rates, and 2–3 weeks during peak season, when carrier space is tightest.

2

Prep and empty the vehicle

Wash the car, leave about a quarter tank of fuel, and remove personal items. Anything left inside is not protected against loss or damage in transit.

3

Inspect at pickup and delivery

Walk around the vehicle with the driver at both ends, photograph its condition, and note anything new on the Bill of Lading before signing.
