Planning the shipping of a car from Florida to Michigan
NX proudly provides services to customers looking for Florida to Michigan auto transport. We are local to Florida, and are known for specifically catering to those making both permanent and seasonal shipments. If you are a "snowbird" spending the winters in sunny Florida, you are getting ready to head back and need a reliable and trusted company.
October and November are the most expensive times of the year to ship a car on this route due to the high demand during snowbird season.
Rates typically drop significantly in early spring because the snowbird season ends and many people begin shipping their cars in the opposite direction, from Florida to Michigan. Carriers prefer to have their trailers full to avoid losing money.
However, fewer people ship cars from Florida to Michigan in the spring, so carriers are more willing to lower rates to fill their trailers as they head back south to pick up another load. Essentially, the demand to ship cars from Florida to New York is much higher in early spring, leading to lower rates for the reverse route.
Whether you are shipping a car from Florida to Michigan during the busy snowbird season in late fall or during the slower early spring period, you can book a transport order with us within seven days of when your car will be ready for pick-up. We have strong relationships with carriers on this route, ensuring we can schedule and move vehicles quickly year-round.
The distance between New Jersey and Florida ranges from 1,200 to 1,400 miles, depending on the specific pick-up and delivery locations. A car carrier can typically cover this distance in about three days, meaning your car will arrive at its destination in Florida three days after pick-up in New York.

Carriers can travel around 300-500 miles per day. If you take the total distance of your route and divide by an average of 400, you'll get the estimated number of days it will take to ship a car from Florida to Michigan. Ih this case you are looking at 1000 miles, so 2-3 days.
But don’t worry, when you book the shipping, we give you the estimated delivery time for your specific Florida to Michigan shipping when you reserve the order.
There are a few factors involved. The first will depend on the specific pick up location in Florida and the delivery location in Michigan. It will also depend on the size and weight of the vehicle, the type of shipping which can be open or enclosed, and of course if it’s running or non-running.

Michigan Vehicle Shipping
We are primarily serving five main areas: northeast Florida, central Florida, southeast Florida, southwest Florida, and the Panhandle. We also service the Florida Keys, though less frequently.
The busiest hub for auto transport in and out of Florida is Miami, located in southeast Florida. Other popular cities in this region include West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, and Fort Lauderdale. We can quickly arrange transports to or from southeast Florida, especially Miami, although these transports are more expensive due to the southern location.
In the northern part of the state, Jacksonville in northeast Florida is a prime car shipping location and one of the best in the state.
Central Florida also offers excellent car shipping locations in major cities such as Orlando, Daytona Beach, Ocala, Tampa, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, and Lakeland.
In southwest Florida, cities like Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and Naples are strong shipping locations. However, keep in mind that the further south you go, the more expensive the transport, so Naples will cost more than Tampa.
In the Panhandle, Tallahassee is the top car shipping location. Other cities like Panama City and Pensacola depend on the destination of the transport. Carriers often prefer routes along I-10, which is a busy trucking corridor through the Panhandle, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. Transports to or from the Panhandle to the northwest, north, or northeast can be more challenging and costly.
The Florida Keys are the most challenging area to ship to or from in Florida. While we can manage these transports, they are rare and expensive. Shipping to or from cities like Key Largo, Marathon, or Key West will be the costliest. To save money, consider meeting a carrier in Miami instead.
Carriers rarely serve both coasts of Florida in the same trip. They usually handle either the east or west coast separately. For example, a carrier picking up or delivering in Miami will travel along the east coast with their current load.
As a door-to-door auto car shipper, we can ship to and from any location in Florida. Whether you're shipping to or from Key Largo, Jacksonville, or anywhere in between, we can handle it. For current shipping rates, get an instant quote online or call us.
Shipping to Michigan is considered seasonal. If you ship a vehicle during the winter months, you should prepare for potential delays due to harsh winter weather in the Midwestern states. When shipping cars from Michigan to California, car carriers may encounter severe conditions in states like Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, and Nebraska.
Michigan, often referred to as the "Great Lakes State," is renowned for its natural beauty, featuring over 11,000 inland lakes and 3,288 miles of coastline along four of the Great Lakes. Its diverse landscape includes vast forests, picturesque peninsulas, and bustling cities, offering a wide range of outdoor activities and scenic views. Michigan's economy is driven by several key industries, including automotive manufacturing, agriculture, and tourism. Detroit, known as the birthplace of the American automotive industry, remains a significant economic hub, while cities like Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids are celebrated for their vibrant cultural scenes and strong educational institutions.
People choose to relocate to Michigan for various reasons, including its affordable cost of living, robust job market, and high quality of life. According to recent statistics, Michigan has a population of approximately 10 million residents, with a steady influx of newcomers each year. The state offers a relatively low median home price compared to the national average, making it an attractive option for families and individuals looking to buy property. Additionally, Michigan's excellent school systems, including highly ranked universities such as the University of Michigan and Michigan State University, draw students and professionals alike. The state also boasts a strong sense of community and numerous recreational opportunities, from boating and fishing in the summer to skiing and snowboarding in the winter, making it an appealing destination for those seeking both career opportunities and a rich, fulfilling lifestyle.
