Our Florida to New York Shipping Services
Open Auto Transport – $950
The most popular and affordable option for Florida-to-New York shipments. Your vehicle travels on a standard multi-car open trailer alongside 7-9 other vehicles. Fully insured, weather-exposed but safe for typical sedans, SUVs, and trucks.
Enclosed Auto Transport – $1,600
Recommended for luxury, classic, exotic, or high-value vehicles. Fully enclosed trailer protects against weather, road debris, and UV exposure over the 1,280-mile route. Approximately 68% more than open transport.
Expedited Shipping
Need your vehicle on the road fast? Expedited service guarantees pickup within 24-48 hours. Ideal for military PCS orders, urgent relocations, or tight closing dates on a car purchase. Add $150-$250 to the standard rate.
Door-to-Door Service
Every shipment is door-to-door. Our carrier picks up at your Florida address and delivers directly to your New York destination. In some cases (narrow streets, HOA restrictions), the driver may ask to meet at a nearby accessible location.
Why Ship Your Car from Florida to New York?
Compared to driving the full 1,280 miles yourself, shipping saves you:
- Hotel costs for 3+ overnight stops
- Fuel (approximately $179 at $3.50/gallon and 25 MPG)
- Meals on the road
- Wear and tear on your vehicle (about $128 in depreciation at $0.10/mile)
- Days of your time
- Risk of breakdown, accident, or theft in unfamiliar states
For most Florida-to-New York shipments, using Autos Mover at $950 costs about the same as or less than driving – and takes the exhaustion and risk off your plate.

Florida to New York Auto Transport FAQ
How long does it take to ship a car from Florida to New York?
Typical transit time is 5-7 days once the carrier picks up your vehicle. Pickup usually happens within 1-5 days of booking. Expedited service can guarantee pickup within 24-48 hours for urgent shipments.
What is the cheapest way to ship a car from Florida to New York?
Open transport at $950 is the most affordable option on this route. Booking 2-3 weeks in advance typically saves an additional 5-10%. Avoid the lowest “bait” quotes – carriers can’t profitably move cars at unrealistic rates, so low-ball bookings often sit unmatched for weeks.

No. Autos Mover requires zero upfront payment under our ZeroDown Guarantee. You pay only after a specific carrier is confirmed and dispatched for your shipment.
Is my vehicle insured during transport from Florida to New York?
Yes. Every shipment is covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance, verified before dispatch. Photograph your vehicle at pickup and review the Bill of Lading inspection report to document pre-existing condition.

Yes. We ship non-running vehicles regularly using winch-equipped trailers. Non-running service costs approximately $100-$200 more than running vehicles. Please disclose the condition accurately when booking.
