What Is Door‑to‑Door Car Shipping & How It Works
With door-to-door car shipping, your vehicle can be picked up and delivered as close as possible to your specified address, whether it's your home, office, or another convenient location.
If you're shipping to or from a residential area, the driver will aim to reach your driveway or curb. However, in some neighborhoods, local laws or physical obstacles like low-hanging branches, narrow streets, or tight turns, may prevent access.
In those cases, the driver will coordinate with you to meet at a nearby, safe location such as a large parking lot or open space for loading or unloading.
In the United States, door-to-door car shipping is one of the easiest, safest, and most affordable ways to move your vehicle. And it’s even better when you ship with a reliable and professional auto transport company like Budget Auto Transporter.

Which Transport Options Offer Door-to-Door Car Shipping?
When it comes to door-to-door auto transport, you have two main options: enclosed container shipping and Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO) transport.
Container shipping is typically used for international vehicle transport it’s fully enclosed, secure, and ideal for luxury or exotic cars being shipped overseas. However, it’s also much more expensive and usually overkill for standard domestic car shipments.
That’s where RORO transport comes. With RORO, your car is driven onto a specialized car carrier and transported either on an open or enclosed trailer, depending on your budget and preferences. It's safe, efficient, and perfect for door-to-door delivery within the U.S.

How Does Door-to-Door Auto Transport Work?
Shipping your car with door-to-door auto transport is simple and we’ll guide you through every step. Here’s how the process works from start to finish:
- Book Your Shipment
Start by getting a quote and scheduling your pickup. Once confirmed, you’ll receive all the details you need including estimated pickup and delivery windows. - Pickup Day
Your assigned driver will contact you 10 to 24 hours before arrival. When they arrive, you'll walk around the vehicle together for a quick inspection. This is documented on the Bill of Lading, which protects you in case of damage. - In Transit
Your car will be carefully loaded onto an open or enclosed car carrier, depending on what you selected. The driver will transport it directly toward the drop-off location, updating you as needed. - Delivery Day
Before arrival, the driver will call to confirm timing. Upon delivery, you’ll do another walkaround vehicle inspection, sign the Bill of Lading, and complete any final payment.
