What’s the Cost to Ship a Car from Connecticut to Florida?
The cost to ship a car from Connecticut to Florida typically ranges from $1,100–$1,600 on an open carrier. Enclosed transport is significantly more expensive. Your exact rate will depend on your vehicle size, transport type, pickup and delivery locations, time of year, and carrier availability.
Location can make a difference on this route. Pickups along or near I-95, as well as the I-84 and I-91 corridors from Hartford that connect into I-95, are generally easier for carriers to accommodate. More remote areas of Connecticut typically cost more because they require carriers to travel farther off these primary shipping lanes. Seasonal demand can also have a major impact, especially during the fall snowbird rush to Florida, when rates often increase significantly.
