"Great communication throughout the entire process. Booking the service was easy online, and their follow-through is great. The drivers who collected and dropped off the vehicle were courteous and respectful. They did a thorough walk-around of the vehicle before loading and after delivery."

"Fast, friendly & professional ! From online quote to sales and office admin to delivery driver is nothing short of 100% satisfaction . Truck delivery from MA to VA in a days time and with 4” of snow in VA. The truck arrived in perfect condition!"

"Extremely good service. Easy to book. Quick response in setting up the transport of a vehicle from PA to SC. Priced other transport services and price was lowest with RoadRunner. Also pickup and delivery was door to door and happened quickly. I highly recommend"

Service Type

Open or Enclosed Transport for Massachusetts to South Carolina?

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.
