Ship a Car from Orlando to Atlanta
A short Southeast hop with steady, year-round demand — job relocations between two of the region's biggest metros, students moving for Georgia Tech, Emory, UGA, and Georgia State terms, military families on orders, and dealers moving inventory between Central Florida and Georgia lots. Carriers run this lane straight up I-75, one of the most heavily traveled car-hauling corridors in the Southeast, which keeps pickup windows short and pricing competitive.
Typical transit is 1–2 days door to door once your vehicle is loaded. Most cars move on open transport — the standard way the majority of vehicles travel, and every shipment includes insurance coverage. Enclosed transport is there if you are moving a classic, luxury, or exotic car and want it covered for the whole run north.
Below you’ll find the typical price ranges for this route, how the process works, and the details that actually move the price. The ranges below are a guide — your exact price depends on your specific pickup and delivery cities, since a pickup well outside the Orlando metro or a delivery in a smaller Georgia city prices differently than metro to metro. The quote form gives you a price for your specific cities.

Typical ranges for a standard sedan in running condition. Season is a factor too: prices run higher when demand peaks — snowbird season in the fall and spring, the summer moving season, and the year-end holidays — and lower in quieter months. Your exact price depends on your specific pickup and delivery cities — locations well outside the Orlando or Atlanta metros can price differently than metro to metro.

What affects the price on this route
The typical ranges above are for a standard sedan shipping metro to metro. Here’s what moves your quote within — or outside — those ranges.
Distance — about 440 miles
Mileage is the backbone of every quote. Your specific pickup and delivery cities set the exact distance — and metro-to-metro moves price better than remote or hard-to-reach endpoints, where a carrier has to travel out of its way to reach you.
Vehicle size & weight
A compact sedan takes one standard slot. Large SUVs, trucks, and heavy vehicles take more trailer space and weight capacity, so they price higher.
Running condition
A vehicle that runs, steers, and brakes loads in minutes. A non-running vehicle needs a winch and extra handling, which adds to the price.
Open vs. enclosed
Open transport (typically $500–$900) is the standard for everyday vehicles. Enclosed (typically $800–$1,400) puts your car inside a covered trailer.
Season & timing
Demand on this lane climbs around college move-in and move-out, summer relocation season, and the fall, when carriers fill up fast and prices follow. If your dates are flexible — even by a day or two — you’ll usually price better than a fixed, must-move date.
Ways to save on this route
- Stay flexible on pickup dates. Carriers fill trucks around their own schedules and reward flexibility — even a day or two of give usually prices better than a fixed, must-move date.
- Book 1–2 weeks ahead in peak season. Summer relocations and college-term moves fill trucks on this lane fast — booking early helps you secure a better price and a wider choice of pickup days.
- Ship metro to metro when you can. Pickup and delivery in metro areas price better than remote or hard-to-reach locations, where a carrier has to deadhead to reach you.
- Choose open unless the car calls for enclosed. Open transport (typically $500–$900) is the best value for everyday vehicles — save enclosed for a classic, exotic, or high-value car.
Good to know for this route
- I-75 is a carrier highway. This lane runs almost entirely on I-75, a route car haulers travel daily in both directions. That volume is why Orlando to Atlanta typically picks up quickly and transits in just 1–2 days once loaded.
- Orlando pickup is easy almost anywhere. From Winter Park and Kissimmee to Sanford and Lake Mary, most Central Florida neighborhoods give a full-size hauler room to work. Gated communities sometimes need a meet at the gate or a nearby lot — your driver will coordinate that with you.
- Atlanta traffic shapes delivery timing. Metro Atlanta deliveries are scheduled around I-285 and I-75/I-85 congestion where possible. A delivery window rather than an exact hour is normal, and the driver calls ahead as the truck gets close.
- Summer storms are part of Florida shipping. Afternoon thunderstorms in summer and the occasional tropical system can shift a pickup by a day. Booking with a little date flexibility keeps a weather delay from becoming a scheduling problem.
Preparing your car for pickup
A few quick steps before the driver arrives make pickup smooth — and protect you if anything comes up in transit.
- Keep the fuel tank about a quarter full. That’s plenty for loading and unloading, without the extra weight of a full tank.
- Remove personal items and loose accessories. Carriers aren’t insured for belongings left inside the vehicle, so clear out anything you can’t replace.
- Wash the car before pickup. A clean car makes the pre-shipment inspection photos accurate, so any existing marks are documented clearly.
- Note any existing damage with the driver. Walk the car together at pickup and make sure it’s recorded on the bill of lading before you sign.
- Disable alarms and remove toll tags. It prevents surprise alarms in transit and toll charges piling up along the way.
- Have a spare key ready if possible. The driver needs a working key for loading and unloading at both ends.

How long does it take to ship a car from Orlando to Atlanta?
Typical transit is 1–2 days door to door once your vehicle is picked up. Carriers average roughly 500 miles a day, and the wait for pickup after booking is usually short on this lane as well.
Is open or enclosed transport better for this route?
For most everyday vehicles, open transport is the right call — it is how the large majority of cars move between Orlando and Atlanta, and every shipment includes insurance coverage either way. Choose enclosed if you are shipping a classic, luxury, exotic, or freshly restored vehicle: the covered trailer shields it from Florida rain and highway debris on the run up I-75.
How fast can my car get from Orlando to Atlanta?
Once your vehicle is picked up, typical transit is 1–2 days — it is a straight run of about 440 miles up I-75. Pickup after booking is usually quick on this lane because carriers travel it daily; booking a few days ahead of your ideal pickup date gives the widest choice of trucks.
Can you pick up or deliver outside the main metro areas?
Yes. We pick up across the Orlando area — Orlando, Winter Park, Kissimmee, Altamonte Springs, Sanford, Winter Garden, Lake Mary, Clermont — and the surrounding metro — and deliver throughout the Atlanta area. Service is door to door to your exact address wherever a full-size carrier can safely and legally reach it — and if a street is too tight, the driver will arrange the nearest accessible meeting spot with you. Keep in mind the figures on this page are based on the Orlando and Atlanta metro areas — pickups or deliveries well outside those metros can price differently, which is why the quote form asks for your specific cities.
