If you’re adamant about keeping your vehicle with you while you move, here are your options:
- Transport your vehicle with your furniture – Many moving companies offer services which enable them to move cars and furniture in the same van. You should know that this can quickly become quite expensive because the quote you will receive is dependent on many factors. These factors include the weight of the item and the time taken to transport the items as well as the distance between the pick up spot and destination. Cars are usually not very light which can quickly ramp up the cost making it unfeasible if you aren’t careful.
- Transport your vehicle using an auto shipping company – If the cost of a moving company proves too high, you can look at a company that specializes in transporting vehicles. These kinds of companies transport cars, bikes and sometimes boats too in special types of trucks.

It is also important to visit your state’s office for motor vehicles before deciding to move your vehicle. Ask about the following while there –
- Ask them which tests your vehicle needs to pass such as emission tests, inspection and safety. If you’ve bought a used car, ask them whether the seller or buyer pays for the vehicles tests.
- Ask them how much the total will come up to for all of the tests.
- Upcoming legislation may make certain models of vehicles obsolete. Ask them if upcoming laws will make the registration and other related fees rise on any of the cars you are interested in.
