Question

Whats the cheapest way to get a car shipped to Florida from New Jersey? (without driving)?

Answer 1

Amtrack has a train that you can drive your car onto.  You may have to go on the train with it though.  Not sure...

Answer 2

put it on the train but still expensive.  you can hire someone to drive it down for you.  just make sure its someone you trust. then pay for his/her plane ticket back.

Answer 3

Amtrak operates a tran that carry cars and their passengers from Lorton, Virginia to Sanford, Florida, but you must drive to and from the terminals.

Answer 4

automotive transports inc.

Probably around $700 bucks they will send a flat bed truck and drive your car up on it.  Then drive it down.  Why not just drive your car there?  Buy a one way ticket back to NJ from Florida and pay someone a hundred bucks to make the drive.  Then you're out like $300 bucks well, maybe $400 with gas and food and the plane ticket back.

Answer 5

push the car from behind and save fuel... thats the cheapest way to get it shipped without spending a penny....

Answer 6

The best place to start would be http://www.transportreviews.com/ .

From Florida to New Jersey they show prices ranging from $575 to $792 with an average cost of $638.

Those prices come from customer reported costs after they rated and reviewed a company.  The site reports 4244 reviews on 246 companies as of this post.

Another way to get cheap rates is to get multiple quotes from companies.  There are lots of sites out there that allow one form to get up to 10 price quotes.  One site that only uses well rated companies from TransportReviews.com is http://www.AutoTransporter.com/.  You can get between two and ten quotes by filling out one form.

I think between those two resources you will be in an excellent position to get a vehicle cheaply shipped... and successfully shipped.

Good luck!

rail

Answer 8

Go to e-bay, motor vehicles, in the site you will find names of shipping companies with quotations, I dont think it will be expensive (relative to the vehicle price).
