STEP 2: CARRIER IS ASSIGNED
Once you’re ready to book, our dispatch team matches your route with a trusted, insured carrier from our nationwide network. We’ll confirm pickup and delivery dates that work for you.
STEP 3: VEHICLE PICKUP
Your driver will contact you before arrival. Together, you’ll complete a quick vehicle inspection and then load it safely onto an open or enclosed transport trailer, depending on what you chose. From there, it’s on the road.
STEP 4: YOUR VEHICLE DELIVERED
On delivery day, the driver will reach out again to coordinate drop-off. After a final condition check, you’ll sign off and pay any remaining balance directly. No surprises, just a safe and easy ride from start to finish.

South Carolina Auto Transport Resources
Before or after your car arrives in South Carolina, here are key resources to help with registration, tolls, and driving requirements:
- South Carolina DMV Services
Manage vehicle registration, title transfers, and license plates through the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles (SCDMV), available both online and at local branches.
- Vehicle Inspections & Emissions
South Carolina does not require emissions testing for vehicle registration. However, general safety and insurance requirements must be met.
- Toll Roads & Palmetto Pass
South Carolina has minimal toll roads, but for the Southern Connector (I-185), the Palmetto Pass gives you a discounted rate and faster travel.
- Auto Insurance Requirements
State law requires minimum liability coverage: $25,000 for bodily injury per person, $50,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage. Uninsured motorist coverage is also mandatory.
- Registration & Renewals
You can renew registration online through the SCDMV with proof of insurance and a valid South Carolina address.

"Julian handled my booking and honestly, I didn’t expect this level of care. He was super clear, followed up with the driver, and answered all my late night texts (sorry Julian lol). Car made it to Chicago right on schedule."
