Planning the shipping of a car from Florida to New York to Florida
You're likely one of the many "snowbirds" which are yearly seasonal shippers that we assist with vehicle transport for their long-term stay.
The snowbird season for transporting cars from FL to NY begins in late March, as residents of New York currently in Florida start heading north for the spring.
Keep in mind that late March and April are the most expensive times of the year to ship a car on this route due to the high demand during snowbird return season.
Rates typically drop significantly in early June because the snowbird northbound season ends and many people begin shipping their cars in the opposite direction, from Florida to New York . Carriers prefer to have their trailers full to avoid losing money.
However, fewer people ship cars from Florida to New York 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 New York during the busy snowbird season in late fall or during the slower early spring period, you can book a transport order with us within 3-5 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 Florida to New York 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 New York three days after pick-up in Florida

We handle a significant number of transport from Florida, with a particular focus on snowbird transports between Florida and New York. As a door-to-door auto transporter, we can ship to and from any location in Florida, including Key Largo, Jacksonville, and everywhere in between.
Our primary shipping areas in Florida are northeast Florida, central Florida, southeast Florida, southwest Florida, and the panhandle. The Florida Keys are the sixth area we service, but not as frequently.
The most popular shipping hub for auto transports in and out of Florida is Miami, located in southeast Florida. Other notable cities in this region include West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, and Fort Lauderdale. Transports to or from southeast Florida, especially Miami, are completed quickly but tend to be more expensive due to the southern location.
In northeast Florida, Jacksonville stands out as a prime car shipping location and is considered one of the best in the state. Central Florida also boasts excellent shipping locations, including major cities like Orlando, Daytona Beach, Ocala, Tampa, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, and Lakeland.
In southwest Florida, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and Naples are solid car shipping locations. However, the further south you go, the more expensive the transport, making Naples more costly than Tampa, for instance.
Tallahassee is the best car shipping location in the panhandle, though other cities like Panama City and Pensacola can also be good options depending on the destination. Carriers prefer the panhandle when shipping to or from cities along I-10, a major cross-country trucking corridor.
Shipping to or from the Florida Keys, including cities like Key Largo, Marathon, and Key West, is the most challenging and expensive due to the low volume of traffic. To save money, consider meeting a carrier in Miami instead.
Interestingly, carriers rarely serve both coasts of Florida on the same trip. They usually complete transports along either the west or east coast before switching to the other on a different trip. This means if your vehicle is picked up or delivered in Miami, the carrier will likely be traveling along the east coast with their current load of vehicles.
No matter where you're shipping to or from in Florida, we can handle it with efficiency and reliability.
When you're shipping a car to or from New York, there are three areas of the state that will affect how much your transport will cost, and how long it will take to ship a car to or from New York. One area is the New York City metropolitan area that includes the five boroughs (The Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island) and Long Island. The other area is just outside of New York City that includes the cities of White Plains, Yonkers, and Rye. Finally, the other area is Upstate New York, which is basically the rest of the state.
Auto transports in and out of the New York City metropolitan area will typically cost more because of the logistics of picking up or delivering a vehicle in such a congested and challenging metropolitan area, but the upside is that freight can often move faster because that’s where most of the carriers are working in the state of New York.
The cities of White Plains, Yonkers, and Rye are just outside New York City and they can be the best areas of New York to ship cars to or from because car carriers can avoid the city and the boroughs and they can still continue travelling to surrounding states without having to pay heavy tolls or encounter too much traffic.
The rest of the state of New York, Upstate New York, is made up of several subregions. Those subregions include Western New York, Finger Lakes, Southern Tier, Central New York, North Country, Mohawk Valley, Capital District, and Hudson Valley. Each of these regions in Upstate New York have their pros and cons when it comes to car shipping. Most areas along the interstates throughout NY state are relatively easy to ship in and out of and are your cheapest shipping options. Those areas include the cities of Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany. The southern areas of Hudson Valley (Poughkeepsie down to just north of White Plains) can be a little more challenging so transports in and out of these areas may take a day or two longer and may cost more.
