Colorado Car Shipping Services

Colorado's geography, specifically the I-70 mountain corridor and high-altitude passes like Vail Pass and the Eisenhower Tunnel, can lead to sudden weather-related delays. During winter (October–May), heavy snow and the Colorado Traction Law may impact carrier speeds. We monitor CDOT (COtrip) alerts daily to ensure your vehicle is transported safely, and we highly recommend Enclosed Auto Transport during winter months to protect your car from magnesium chloride (road salt) and debris.

New residents are required to register their vehicles with the Colorado DMV within 90 days of establishing residency. To complete your registration, you will need a VIN Verification (Form DR 2698), which can be performed by a licensed Colorado dealer or law enforcement. We coordinate our delivery schedules to ensure your car arrives with plenty of time for you to complete this mandatory inspection and avoid late fees.

You don't need these to ship the car, but you will need them to register it. Most vehicles from out-of-state entering the Front Range (including Denver, Boulder, and Colorado Springs) must pass an emissions test at an Air Care Colorado station. Additionally, all out-of-state vehicles require a physical VIN verification. Our door-to-door service ensures your car is delivered directly to your home so you can easily drive it to the nearest testing facility.

Yes, we service the entire state, including the high country. However, because large multi-car carriers (75+ feet long) cannot always navigate the steep grades and tight switchbacks of mountain roads, we may coordinate a "last-mile" delivery. This often involves meeting your driver at a more accessible location, such as a large parking lot along I-70 or Highway 82, or utilizing a smaller flatbed for the final leg.

If you are shipping a car from a sea-level state (like Florida or California) to the Rockies, ensure your antifreeze and coolant levels are rated for sub-zero temperatures. High-altitude air is thinner and colder; checking your tire pressure upon delivery is also a "pro-tip," as the change in elevation can cause your TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) light to trigger.

Denver is a primary "hub" for national carriers because it sits at the intersection of I-25 and I-70. Typical transit times include:

• Dallas to Denver: 2–3 days.

• Los Angeles to Denver: 3–5 days.

• Chicago to Denver: 3–4 days.

• New York to Denver: 5–8 days.

• Seattle to Fort Collins: 4–6 days.

Absolutely. We frequently handle PCS (Permanent Change of Station) moves for service members at Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base, and the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. We are familiar with the specific documentation and timing requirements for military relocations and offer specialized support to ensure a stress-free transition for our troops.
