Nearest first. A carrier twenty miles out is as local to your pickup as one across town; what matters is whose truck runs your lane and whose record you have read.

Shipping a car out of Houston: the main lanes
Carriers price by lane, and a lane is priced by how easily a truck fills on it. Distances from Houston to the largest metros: measured routes are driving miles, the rest are estimated from straight-line distance and marked approximate.
| From Houston to | Distance | Truck drive time | Household move on this route |
|---|---|---|---|
| New York City, NY | 1,630 mi | 4 days | Priced route → |
| Los Angeles, CA | 1,550 mi | 4 days | Priced route → |
| Chicago, IL | 1,113 mi | 3 days | Priced route → |
| Dallas, TX | 239 mi | 4 hr | Priced route → |
| Washington, DC | ≈ 1,420 mi | 3 days | Priced route → |
| Miami, FL | 1,187 mi | 3 days | Priced route → |
| Philadelphia, PA | ≈ 1,562 mi | 4 days | Priced route → |
| Atlanta, GA | 793 mi | 2 days | Priced route → |
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.
Pickup and delivery in Houston
Where the truck can actually stop
A loaded car hauler is about 75 feet long and 13½ feet tall. Cul-de-sacs, low branches, overhead lines and HOA rules keep it off many Houston residential streets, so the driver may ask to meet at a wide lot. Agree the spot when you book.
The inspection report is the contract
Existing damage goes on the bill of lading at pickup, in daylight if you can arrange it. Photograph every panel beside the driver, check the report before signing, and compare the car with it at delivery before you sign again.
A quarter tank and nothing inside
Fuel is weight, and personal items are not covered by the carrier's cargo insurance. Remove toll tags and parking passes, disable the alarm, note any quirk the driver needs to know to move the car.
Windows, not dates
Carriers fill a truck along a corridor, so pickup in Houston is quoted as a window of days. Flexibility lowers the price; a fixed date is paid for. If the car must leave on a given day, say so before the quote, not after.
The full checklist is in how to prepare your car for shipping; the quote itself is explained in how car shipping is priced.
How to check a Houston auto transporter
Most quotes come from brokers, and the truck that arrives belongs to a carrier you have not spoken to. These five checks connect the two.
- 1
Match the USDOT number to the company
Ask which company's trucks will carry the car, then open that USDOT number on the FMCSA record. The legal name, the Houston address and the authority status should match what you were told. A broker quoting you has a different record from the carrier that shows up.
- 2
Check the authority is active and the MC number matches
Active operating authority is the licence to haul for hire across state lines. An inactive MC number, or one the company cannot produce, means the load would move without it.
- 3
Ask for the cargo insurance certificate
The certificate names the carrier, the insurer, the per-vehicle limit and the deductible. Your car is covered while it is on the truck only under that policy; nothing inside the car is.
- 4
Read the fleet line against the promise
A carrier reporting three trucks cannot run a dedicated truck to you next Tuesday and also be in three other states. Fleet size is self-reported, so treat it as a claim to test with a question, not as a guarantee.
- 5
Treat the inspection report as the contract
Existing damage is recorded at pickup on the bill of lading. Photograph the car beside the driver, check the report before you sign, and compare the car with it at delivery before signing again.

Car shipping in Houston: questions people ask
How many car shipping companies are there in Houston, TX?
68 FMCSA-registered auto transporters are based in Houston itself, and 40 more listed carriers work within 30 miles (Stafford, Missouri City, Sugarland, Sugar Land, Richmond and nearby). All 108 hold active registrations with motor vehicles declared as cargo and a fleet on file. Brokers are registered separately and are not counted.
Who is the largest auto transporter near Houston?
By reported fleet, Trust Auto Transport Llc in Richmond, TX, with 20 trucks on its filing (USDOT 3015611). Fleet size is self-reported and describes capacity, not care; read the record behind the number before you book.
How much does it cost to ship a car from Houston?
We publish no car-shipping price model, so this page prints no figures. The quote is set by the lane (Houston to New York City, NY is 1,630 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 Houston?
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.
Is this list a recommendation?
No. It is the federal register filtered to auto transporters based in or near Houston, ordered by distance and reported fleet. Nobody pays to appear, nothing is re-ranked, and we have used none of these companies. The USDOT number on each row opens the carrier's own record.
About this page. Carriers are from the FMCSA Motor Carrier Census (snapshot September 24, 2026), filtered to active registrations with motor vehicles declared as cargo, an auto-transport name and a fleet on file. "Based in Houston" is the city on the carrier's own filing; the 30-mile radius uses ZIP-code centroids from the Census Bureau. Nothing is re-ranked, nobody pays for placement, and every row links to the live federal record.
