What to know about shipping a car to or from New Jersey.

A car arriving in New Jersey is held to the state’s own equipment rules once it’s registered here, and window tint is the one that catches a car tinted to Florida’s limits. A car leaving has one thing to keep in order, which is the insurance. New Jersey sends a suspension notice when a registered car’s policy is dropped, so the New Jersey policy stays on until the plates are back with the MVC or the car is registered in its new state.

Can a car with tinted front windows be driven in New Jersey?

New Jersey allows tint on the windshield and front side windows only with a medical exemption from the MVC, approved before the film goes on.

Florida allows front side windows down to 28%, so a car tinted legally in Florida arrives with film New Jersey doesn’t allow. The exemption is medical, and the MVC wants the application approved before any film is applied. So for a car with tinted front windows that’s going onto New Jersey plates, settle before it ships whether there’s a medical reason to apply or whether the front film comes off once it’s here. The rule covers the windshield and the front side windows.

What does a car need after it arrives in New Jersey?

If the move makes you a New Jersey resident, these are the state's rules for the car.

Deadline
Transfer the title and registration within 60 days of moving, or before the old registration runs out if that comes first.
Where
An MVC agency, by appointment, with the original title. You leave with plates, a registration and a temporary inspection card.
Inspection
Every two years, and after five years for a new car. Fully electric cars are exempt.
Insurance
A New Jersey policy. The Standard Policy most drivers choose starts at $35,000 per person and $70,000 per accident for injuries, $25,000 for property damage and $15,000 of personal injury protection.
Tax
A resident who buys a car in another state owes New Jersey's 6.625% at registration, less sales tax paid there.

Checked October 2026 against New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, Department of Banking and Insurance, Division of Taxation. Rules change; the state's own site has the final word.

Car hauling burns diesel. We fund the work to clean it up.

One percent of every booking goes to Clean Air Task Force, a nonprofit working on policy and technology to clean up transport and energy emissions.

How the contribution works →

Common questions, plainly answered.

How much does it cost to ship a car to or from New Jersey?

Open transport to or from New Jersey runs $850 to $2,050. Florida runs $850 to $1,300, North Carolina $850 to $1,150 and Texas $1,300 to $1,650, while California, about 2,700 to 2,900 miles away, runs $1,600 to $2,050.

How long does it take to ship a car to or from New Jersey?

A New Jersey shipment usually spends 2 to 8 days between pickup and delivery. North Carolina is a 2 to 4 day run, Florida 3 to 5 and Texas 4 to 6, and a car crossing the country to California takes 5 to 8.

Do I need to register my car in New Jersey after shipping it?

New residents have 60 days from the move to transfer title and registration to New Jersey, or less if the old state's registration expires first. The transfer is done by appointment at an MVC agency, and from then on the car is inspected every two years.

What if my car is damaged?

If you find damage at delivery, note it on the bill of lading before signing. We will manage the claim with the carrier from there.

How do I prepare my car for pickup?

Wash the car so its condition is easy to record, photograph it from each corner, and leave about a quarter tank of fuel. Take out anything above the 100 pound personal item allowance, and take your toll transponder such as FasTrak, E-ZPass or SunPass off the windshield, because toll gantries can read it while the car rides the truck. Have a working key ready for the driver.

Is my car insured during transport?

Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.

Can I put stuff in my car when shipping?

You can leave up to 100 pounds of personal items in one piece of luggage, placed in the trunk or cargo area. Some carriers will accept additional weight for an added fee; we can arrange this for you after booking.

When am I charged?

The deposit is charged 7 days before your pickup window opens; for a pickup inside 7 days it is held on your card at booking and charged when your driver is confirmed. The remaining balance is paid to the driver at delivery.
