Shipping a car in Maryland
The Port of Baltimore has for years handled more cars and light trucks than any other US port, so the region sees steady import, export and dealer traffic. Fort Meade, Joint Base Andrews and the Naval Academy add military moves.
Main routes: I-95, I-70, I-83 and I-270.
Cities we serve include Baltimore, Annapolis, Frederick and Silver Spring, plus every other town in Maryland: if a truck can reach it, you can post it.

When to ship to and from Maryland
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 Maryland?
Once the car arrives, register it with the Maryland MVA. 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.
