Shipping from Los Angeles, CA

Los Angeles is one of the biggest auto transport markets in the world, not just the country. The Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach together are the largest vehicle import gateways in North America. Carriers run in and out of this market constantly. There are multiple Manheim locations across the metro including Manheim Los Angeles and Manheim Southern California, plus ADESA and dozens of independent auction locations. The dealer density across LA, Orange County, the Inland Empire, and San Fernando Valley is massive. If you are shipping to or from anywhere in the greater LA area, carriers have plenty of reasons to be here.

Pickups in LA typically happen within 1 to 3 days. The metro is so large that pickup location matters. Carriers generally prefer Inland Empire staging areas, San Fernando Valley, or the South Bay over deep Hollywood or West LA because of traffic and access. That said we move cars from all over the metro regularly. If you are flexible on pickup timing by even a day or two it helps us match you with a carrier already running your direction. Give us your zip code when you quote and we will give you a real timeframe.
