Remote Work Relocation to DFW — Shipping Your Vehicle from Any State

For intra-DFW moves — transporting a vehicle from one part of the metroplex to another — a local flatbed tow is typically the most cost-effective and fastest solution. NW Towing handles these moves routinely and can often provide same-day service for vehicles that can't be driven.

For moves to other Texas cities or out of state, we partner with vetted long-distance carriers for door-to-door delivery. We handle the coordination, provide a single point of contact throughout the process, and ensure the receiving carrier meets the same documentation and handling standards we apply to our own fleet. Contact us for a quote on any move, near or far.

Relocating to or from DFW is a major logistical undertaking, and vehicle transport is often the most complex piece of the puzzle to arrange. The most common mistake people make is waiting until the last week before their move to book transport — at which point availability is limited and prices are elevated. For long-distance moves, booking vehicle transport 3 to 4 weeks in advance gives you the widest selection of carriers and the most flexibility on pickup windows.

The choice between open and enclosed transport is the first decision to make. Open transport — the standard multi-vehicle carrier you see on highways — is safe for most vehicles and approximately 30 to 40 percent cheaper than enclosed. Enclosed is worth the premium for vehicles worth over $50,000, classic and collectible cars, and any vehicle with a unique or irreplaceable finish. For daily drivers being relocated, open transport is the right choice for the vast majority of moves.

Before handing your vehicle over for transport, reduce the fuel level to approximately a quarter tank — a full tank adds unnecessary weight and creates a fire risk in the event of an accident during transport. Remove all personal items from the interior and trunk; transport companies are not responsible for personal belongings, and loose items become projectiles during transit.

Document the vehicle thoroughly before loading. Walk around the car with your phone camera and record every panel, the wheels, the undercarriage, and the interior. Establish timestamps by emailing yourself the photos. This documentation is your evidence if you need to file a damage claim — the burden of proof falls on the vehicle owner to demonstrate the damage occurred during transport, so a pre-transport record is essential.
