Fully insured, door-to-door auto transport. No deposit until your carrier is confirmed. 5-star rated.
Houston is one of the easiest cities in the country for auto transport. We move cars in and out of here every single day. It sits right on I-10 and I-45 which are two of the busiest carrier corridors in the US. There are hundreds of dealerships across the metro, plus Manheim Houston, ADESA Houston, and multiple Copart and IAA locations. That means carriers are always running through here looking for loads. On top of that, the Port of Houston handles a ton of vehicle imports and exports, so there is never a shortage of trucks in the area.
Pickups in Houston are fast. Most of the time we get a carrier assigned within 1 to 3 days. Sometimes it happens same day if the timing lines up right. There are so many carriers running through the Houston metro that you are rarely waiting long. The only time things slow down a little is during hurricane season from August to October when some carriers avoid the Gulf Coast. Even then it is usually just a day or two longer than normal.

Baltimore has something most cities do not: a major vehicle import port. The Port of Baltimore processes a huge volume of vehicle cargo every year through Fairfield and Masonville terminals plus the Chesapeake and Atlantic auto terminals. That port activity alone draws carriers to this market. On the road side, I-95 is the backbone, connecting Baltimore directly to Washington DC to the south and Philadelphia and New York to the north. I-83 runs north into Pennsylvania. I-70 connects westward toward Frederick and the Midwest. Manheim Baltimore-Washington is located in Elkridge, just west of the city off I-95. IAA has a Baltimore-area location too. This is a high volume market with real infrastructure behind it.
Delivering to Baltimore is well supported by I-95 carrier traffic in both directions. Trucks heading south from Philadelphia and New York, and trucks heading north from Richmond and the Carolinas, pass through Baltimore regularly. Port deliveries have their own logistics coordination but road deliveries to the metro are smooth. The same street access consideration applies inside the city. Suburban and county delivery is clean. City neighborhoods may need a meetup at a more open spot, which is standard practice.
Shipping a standard sedan from Houston to Baltimore on open carrier currently estimates between $800 and $1100. That is based on the 1,526-mile distance and current market conditions.
Houston almost always runs at or below the national average. High carrier volume means more competition for your load and that keeps prices down. The huge number of dealerships and auctions in the area means there is constant demand, but there are also plenty of carriers to meet it. The only time you might see prices bump up a little is during hurricane season when some trucks reroute away from the Gulf. But even then we are talking small increases, not anything crazy.

Baltimore runs slightly above the national average. The port activity and dense I-95 corridor keep volume high, but the DC metro market nearby creates competition for carrier slots. Routes to and from New York, Philadelphia, and DC are very competitive. Routes south on I-95 toward the Carolinas and Florida are among the most active carrier lanes in the country and priced well. Heading west or into rural Maryland costs more because you are leaving a dense corridor. Get a quote to see your exact price.
