Looking to ship a car across state lines? You’ve come to the right place. At KU Wait Transportation, we specialize in providing reliable, efficient, and stress-free interstate auto transport services. Whether you’re relocating, buying a vehicle from afar, or moving a classic car for a show, our expert team is here to handle every detail. This guide will walk you through our process, pricing, and the key reasons why we’re the top choice for shipping your vehicle.
What is Interstate Auto Transport?
Interstate auto transport is the professional service of moving a vehicle from one U.S. state to another. This is far more than a simple delivery; it’s a carefully orchestrated logistical process that ensures your vehicle arrives safely and on time. We handle everything from the pickup and route planning to the final drop-off, providing peace of mind and saving you valuable time and money.
Your Options: Open vs. Enclosed Transport
When you get a quote from KU Wait Transportation, you will be presented with two primary options. Choosing the right one depends on your budget, timeline, and the type of vehicle you’re shipping.
Open Transport 🚗💨
This is the most popular and cost-effective method of shipping. Your vehicle is placed on an open trailer, exposed to the same elements it would encounter on the road. Don’t worry, this is a very secure method. Our open carriers are equipped with advanced tie-downs and safety measures to protect your vehicle from shifting during transit. This is the perfect option for:
- Standard cars, SUVs, and trucks.
- Budget-conscious customers.
- Anyone needing a fast and reliable transport solution.
Enclosed Transport 💎🔒
For those who want maximum protection for their vehicle, enclosed auto transport is the ideal solution. Your car is transported in a fully covered trailer, shielding it from weather, road debris, and potential theft. This service is highly recommended for:
- Luxury, exotic, and classic cars.
- High-value vehicles.
- Vintage or custom automobiles.
While enclosed transport costs more, the added security and peace of mind are well worth the investment for a priceless asset.

- Ensuring the gas tank is no more than a quarter full.
- Washing the exterior so a proper inspection can be conducted.
- Pickup and Inspection: A professional driver will arrive at the designated location to pick up your vehicle. A thorough inspection will be conducted, and a Bill of Lading (BOL) will be filled out to document the vehicle’s condition. You will sign this document, and so will the driver, to ensure accuracy and protection for both parties.
- Real-Time Tracking: We know your vehicle is important to you. That’s why we offer real-time tracking, allowing you to monitor your car’s progress on its journey. You’ll always know where your vehicle is and when it’s expected to arrive.
- Secure Delivery: Your vehicle will be delivered safely to the drop-off location. We will conduct a final inspection with you and have you sign the BOL to confirm that the car arrived in the same condition as when it was picked up.
