Shipping a car in Indiana
Indiana calls itself the Crossroads of America because so many interstates meet in Indianapolis, which helps with carrier availability. The state also has large auto plants, including Toyota in Princeton, Subaru in Lafayette and Honda in Greensburg.
Main routes: I-65, I-69, I-70, I-74 and I-80/90.
Cities we serve include Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville and South Bend, plus every other town in Indiana: if a truck can reach it, you can post it.

When to ship to and from Indiana
Winter weather
Winters in Indiana bring snow and road salt, roughly December to March. Carriers keep running, but a storm can push pickup or delivery by a day or two. A car on an open carrier will arrive salty, so plan a wash.
Peak moving season
June to August is the busiest moving season in North America: school-year moves, new jobs and military transfers all land in summer. Posting early gives you more quotes and more choice of dates.
Moving to Indiana?
Once the car arrives, register it with the Indiana BMV. Ask what it needs for a vehicle registered somewhere else (often a VIN check, an inspection or an emissions test) before your old plates or insurance run out.
Shipping across the Canadian border? Only companies that handle cross-border work will quote, and you'll need the ownership or title, ID and a signed authorization letter; permanent imports have extra steps. Each cross-border route page explains the paperwork.
