This was our first time shipping a vehicle. He explained the process thoroughly and was always available to answer questions. He is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. A neighbor recommended them and had shipped their car multiple times. We look forward to working with Todd in the future.Posted on DougTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding Service and Experience! Wanted to thank and recommend Jason Woesnner and the ShipYourCarNow Customer Service team for the outstanding service they provided on two shipments each way across the US over a 2 week period. The last delivery was tricky as we had a health issue with a member of our family that required us to cancel and reinstate a shipment within a 10 hour period of time over the past weekend. Jason worked the lines double time to make happen and the weekend CS team coordinated details with the carrier. Communications between all parties beyond expectation. Overall, It was a success with a delivery time of less than 3 days - FL to CA. This is your team that makes things happen! Happy holidays - Doug GPosted on Curley Home InspectionsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It pays to deal with a pro! I delt with Todd Carlisle. After he explianed how things worked, I went with it. Delivered on time by another pro. I couldn't have asked for a better delivery. So, don't mess with the others, THIS is the only way to go. Nice job Todd!Posted on Donna GordanierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I want to share our experience using Ship Your Car Now and representative Todd Carlisle. After checking with other carriers I talked personally with Todd and he made me feel confident that we had selected the right carrier. It was an easy transaction and the car was picked up and delivered on time without any issues. Todd communicated all along the way. I highly recommend Ship Your Car Now and Todd Carlisle for transport of your vehicle.

Factors Affecting Idaho Car Shipping Costs & Timelines
Several factors influence the cost and timeline of shipping a car to or from Idaho. Here are some key factors to consider:
- Distance: Longer distances generally result in higher costs.
- Vehicle type: Transporting larger vehicles like trucks or SUVs typically costs more than shipping smaller cars.
- Shipping route popularity: More commonly used routes often have lower costs.
These factors should be taken into account when planning to ship a car cross-country to or from Idaho.
Other factors that can affect the cost and timeline of shipping a vehicle include:
- The shipping method chosen (e.g. open or enclosed transport)
- Seasonal demand (certain times of the year may be more expensive due to higher service demand)
- The accessibility of pick-up and drop-off locations
- Unexpected events like detours or accidents
For example, choosing enclosed transport is generally more expensive than open transport. Additionally, seasonal demand can result in higher shipping costs. Lastly, unexpected events like detours or accidents can extend the time needed to ship a vehicle.
How long does car shipping take to or from Idaho?
The timeline for car shipping to or from Idaho is largely dependent on the factors discussed previously. Car transport trucks leave the Idaho twice a week. After the vehicle is loaded, it is typically delivered to the opposite state within a week.
The average time from booking a car shipment to pickup is about 3-4 days. However, this timeline may vary based on the distance between the origin and destination, the shipping method chosen, and the season in which the shipment is booked.
Essential Car Shipping Preparation in Idaho
Proper preparation of your vehicle for shipping is essential, involving steps like cleaning, maintenance, battery disconnection, and choosing the right transport option — open for standard vehicles and enclosed for high-value cars — to ensure safe and efficient delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. As of July 2023, Idaho repealed the mandatory vehicle emissions testing program for the Treasure Valley (Ada and Canyon Counties). For 2026, you can register your vehicle in any Idaho county without a smog or emissions certificate.
Every vehicle coming from out-of-state must undergo a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) inspection before being titled in Idaho. This is a simple physical verification performed by a DMV official or a law enforcement officer to ensure the VIN on the car matches the title. The current fee is $5.00.
Idaho is divided by rugged terrain.
The South (Boise, Twin Falls, Idaho Falls): These are "easy" routes along the I-84 corridor, leading to faster pickups and lower rates.
The North (Coeur d'Alene, Sandpoint, Moscow): These are often routed through Spokane, WA via I-90.
Central Idaho: Routes like US-95 through the mountains can be more expensive for large 8-car carriers due to steep grades and narrow passes.
While DOT regulations generally prohibit household goods in transport vehicles, most carriers allow up to 100 lbs of soft goods (like clothing or linens) as long as they are kept in the trunk or below the window line. Given Idaho's outdoor culture, we recommend removing all expensive roof racks or bike carriers before shipping to prevent damage or theft.
If your car is arriving between November and March, ensure it is winterized before it leaves the origin state. This includes:
Testing your battery (extreme Idaho cold is tough on older batteries).
Ensuring your coolant/antifreeze is rated for sub-zero temperatures.
Filling your washer fluid with a de-icer blend.
In the late summer (July–September), Idaho can experience heavy wildfire smoke and occasional road closures on routes like US-95 or Hwy 21. While rare, these can cause 24-48 hour delays for safety and visibility. We monitor real-time fire maps to keep your driver on the safest and fastest route.
While we service the entire state, mountain resort towns like McCall, Sun Valley, and Stanley can be challenging for 75-foot carriers due to steep grades and weight-restricted bridges. In these cases, we may arrange for a "last-mile" delivery where you meet the driver at a more accessible location, such as a large grocery store parking lot or a designated highway pull-out.
