Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Fort Worth, Texas to Monrovia

Shipping a car from Texas to California generally costs between $700 to over $1,600, depending heavily on your specific cities, vehicle size, transport type (open vs. enclosed), and current demand, with larger vehicles and enclosed transport increasing the price. Expect prices on the lower end for major routes like Dallas to LA ($700-$1000), and higher for longer or less common routes.

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

Selecting an open transport carrier is the cheapest way to ship your car. It costs an average of $0.93 less per mile compared to a closed carrier. Booking at least two weeks in advance can help you get the best price because it allows more drivers to bid on your job.
