Good to know about this route
New York: New York City pickups often need a nearby meeting point because large carriers can't enter many Manhattan and Brooklyn streets. Upstate cities like Buffalo and Rochester are served along I-90, and New York to Florida is one of the busiest routes in America.
California: California is the largest car-shipping market in the U.S., with the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach and Oakland feeding constant carrier traffic. Dense neighborhoods in LA and San Francisco often require a nearby meeting point for 75-foot carriers, which we arrange in advance.
