Alabama Car Shipping Services
Open Auto Transport
Open transport is the standard, most affordable way to ship a vehicle. Your car rides on an
exposed multi-car carrier alongside other vehicles. It's widely used across Alabama and reliable
for the vast majority of vehicles on most routes.
Enclosed Auto Transport
For luxury cars, classics, or any high-value vehicle, enclosed transport provides full protection in a sealed trailer. We recommend it for collector vehicles and any shipment where condition is critical, particularly during Alabama's humid summer months.
Door-to-Door Car Shipping
We arrange pickup and delivery at your address in most Alabama cities and towns. Birmingham,
Huntsville, Mobile, and Montgomery are all accessible for door-to-door service. For downtown
areas with limited access, we coordinate a nearby pickup point.
Expedited Car Shipping
When you need faster service, our expedited option moves pickup to within 24 to 48 hours.
Useful for aerospace or manufacturing job relocation deadlines.
Classic and Collector Car Shipping
Alabama has a strong car culture, particularly with the rise of automotive manufacturing in the
state. We ship vintage and high-value vehicles using enclosed transport with experienced,
careful carriers.
Dealer and Manufacturing Industry Transport
With major automotive plants located throughout Alabama, we work with dealers and
businesses connected to the manufacturing sector to move vehicles reliably and on schedule.
Motorcycle Shipping
We ship motorcycles to and from Alabama using enclosed crating or soft-tie systems,
regardless of make or model.

Shipping a Car To or From Birmingham
Birmingham is Alabama’s largest city and primary auto transport hub. I-65, I-20, and I-59 all
converge here, giving carriers excellent access in every direction. The city’s healthcare, finance,
and manufacturing sectors keep relocation activity steady year-round.
The Birmingham metro includes Hoover, Vestavia Hills, and Mountain Brook — all accessible
for door-to-door service. Downtown areas may require a nearby lot for larger carriers, which we
coordinate ahead of time.
- Nexgen Auto Transport
Shipping from Huntsville, Mobile, Montgomery, and Other Alabama Cities
Huntsville, home to NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and a growing tech and aerospace sector, has strong carrier coverage via I-565 and I-65. The city’s rapid growth has driven significant relocation demand from across the country.
Mobile, on the Gulf Coast, sees consistent seasonal vehicle movement and benefits from I-10 and I-65 access. Montgomery, the state capital, is well-served via I-65 and I-85. Smaller Alabama cities and rural areas can all be serviced, with pickup windows running a bit longer for the most remote locations.

Who Ships Cars to and from Alabama?
College Students
University of Alabama, Auburn University, and the University of Alabama at Birmingham all draw
out-of-state students. Shipping a car to campus is far more practical than a long drive.
Automotive Manufacturing Workers
Alabama has become a major hub for automotive manufacturing, with several plants operating
throughout the state. We work with employees relocating for manufacturing jobs regularly.
Aerospace and Tech Professionals
Huntsville's aerospace and defense industry, anchored by NASA and major contractors, draws
professionals from across the country. Shipping the car is often part of a broader relocation
when accepting a new position.
Gulf Coast Seasonal Residents
Mobile and the broader Alabama Gulf Coast see seasonal vehicle movement as residents and
visitors come and go throughout the year.
Military Families
Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery and Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville generate significant
PCS-related vehicle shipping demand. We work with military families on their relocation
timelines and ship to and from every base in the country.

photographing your vehicle before pickup.
Do I need to be present at pickup and delivery?
Yes — you or a designated contact must sign the Bill of Lading at both ends of the shipment.
