Florida to New Jersey car shipping cost
Shipping a car from Florida to New Jersey covers roughly 1,180 miles and typically runs $650–$1,000 on open transport for a running, standard-size vehicle. Larger vehicles (trucks, SUVs, vans), non-running cars, and enclosed transport price higher. The biggest swing is timing and demand — a heavy I-95 corridor lane with frequent trucks in both directions, which keeps quotes competitive and pickup windows short.
How long does it take?
Most Florida-to-New Jersey moves deliver in about 3–5 days once a carrier picks up. Flexible pickup dates help a broker match you to a truck already running the lane, which usually means a faster assignment and a lower price.
Planning pickup in Florida
Major loading markets include Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville. The major north-south corridors see frequent auto-hauler traffic. Gated communities, narrow coastal streets, and island addresses may require meeting the driver at a larger road or parking area. Give the broker an address where a full-size auto hauler can enter, turn, and stop safely; the driver will coordinate a nearby meeting point if direct access is restricted.
Review every published Florida car shipping route and planning factor.
Planning delivery in New Jersey
Common delivery markets include Newark, Jersey City, Trenton, Camden. The state has excellent access to Northeast freight corridors, but dense streets, toll routes, and limited loading space may require a nearby commercial meeting point. Keep the delivery contact available as the carrier approaches so the final location can be confirmed without delaying the truck.

Season and route conditions
A heavy I-95 corridor lane with frequent trucks in both directions, which keeps quotes competitive and pickup windows short. For the origin, snowbird demand is strongest in fall heading south and spring heading north, while tropical weather can temporarily disrupt pickup windows. At the destination, i-95 traffic and winter storms can affect appointment precision even when carrier capacity is strong. These factors affect estimates rather than guaranteeing a surcharge or delay; current carrier demand determines the live quote.
