Shipping a car out of Union: the main lanes
Distances from Union to the largest metros; measured routes are driving miles, the rest are estimated and marked ≈.

Drive time assumes a loaded car hauler averaging about 55 mph with legal rest; a shared truck also stops for the other cars on the deck, so door-to-door takes longer than the drive.
Roadside inspections: auto transporters near Union
16 of the 42 auto transporters listed here had at least one roadside inspection in the 24 months to September 13, 2026, 47 inspections in all. Inspectors put the vehicle out of service in 6 of 27 vehicle inspections (22.2%), below the 32.4% for listed auto transporters nationally. Drivers were put out of service in 8 of 47 driver inspections (17.0%, against 10.3%). With fewer than 30 vehicle inspections, a single out-of-service order moves that rate by several points, so treat it as a small sample. None has an acute or critical violation from an FMCSA investigation in the past 12 months.

Pickup in Union and checking the carrier
A loaded car hauler is about 75 feet long, so on narrow Union streets the driver may ask to meet at a wide lot; the 2 carriers based here will know which ones work. If the quote comes from a broker, ask which carrier's truck will come and open that USDOT number before pickup. Preparing the car and how car shipping is priced cover the rest.

How much does it cost to ship a car from Union?
We publish no car-shipping price model, so this page prints no figures. The quote is set by the lane (Union to Los Angeles, CA is about 2,836 miles), open or enclosed transport, the car's size and whether it runs, the season and direction, and how flexible your pickup window is. The pricing guide linked below explains each factor.
Will a car hauler pick up at my door in Union?
Usually as close as a 75-foot rig can legally and physically get. On narrow residential streets, in HOAs that bar commercial trucks, or where overhead lines are low, the driver will ask to meet at a wide lot nearby. Agree the meeting point when you book, not when the truck is idling.
How have car haulers near Union done at roadside inspections?
