This is my third time using Professional Drivers and each time I have had a great experience. Tony is very easy to work with, and the drivers are great.

Thanks again for all the help. Having my car along with all my stuff on the first day really facilitated the moving process. I’ll be sure to recommend Professional Drivers to my friends and family!

Just a note to say thank you. Bob did a great job on the trip from Nashville to NJ. Everything was on schedule and done very professionally. I will definitely use your service again if I have the need.

Richard Lloyd

We have used this service a few times to drive our car to and from Nantucket and each time it has been completely seamless and wonderful.

Christina Crampton

I am so pleased and satisfied with this service. Ned was amazing. Do not waste your time and money dealing car shipping brokers! They are not your friends.

Lisa Duran

We have used your service 6 times now. Every time we were pleased with the timeliness and professionalism of your drivers. We were a little bit anxious about the delivery time this last week. The vehicle was delivered a day late. I believe Bob encountered some delays because of accidents. Obviously circumstances out of his control. We’re all together satisfied with your company.

What Is a Car Shipping Alternative?

A car shipping alternative is a service where a professional driver personally drives your vehicle to its destination instead of loading it onto a multi-car transport truck. This method provides a more direct way to relocate a vehicle across the country while avoiding terminals, brokers, and large carrier trucks.

Traditional auto transport companies typically move several vehicles at once using large carrier trucks. Some vehicle owners prefer a simpler option that avoids transport terminals, brokers, and multi-vehicle shipping routes.

With Professional Drivers, an experienced driver picks up your vehicle and drives it directly to its destination while maintaining clear communication throughout the trip.

Unlike traditional auto transport companies that move multiple vehicles at once, this approach focuses on individual service. Your vehicle is driven directly to its destination by a vetted professional driver, providing clear communication and a straightforward delivery process.

Car Shipping vs. a Professional Driver

Car shipping: your car rides on a multi-car truck, often through brokers and terminals, on the carrier’s schedule.
Our car shipping alternative: one vetted driver picks up your car and drives it straight to your door.
Car shipping: belongings usually can’t stay in the car.
Our car shipping alternative: belongings can stay in the car, pets can ride along, and so can you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Car Shipping Alternatives

What Is the Best Car Shipping Alternative?

A vehicle relocation service is a service where a professional driver personally drives your vehicle to its destination instead of loading it onto a multi-car transport truck. This approach provides a more direct and flexible way to relocate a vehicle across the country.

Professional Drivers offers nationwide vehicle relocation with experienced drivers who deliver vehicles door-to-door. Because the vehicle is driven rather than transported on a carrier, customers avoid brokers, terminals, and multi-car transport trucks while maintaining direct communication throughout the trip.

Can someone drive my car across the country for me?

Yes. That’s exactly what we do. One vetted professional driver picks up your car and drives it door to door. Read more about hiring someone to drive your car across the country.

Can I ride along with the driver?

Yes. You can ride along in your own car while our driver does the driving. On a ride-along, you cover meals, lodging and gas along the way.

Can I leave my belongings in the car?

Yes. Unlike most car shipping companies, we let you keep your belongings in the car.

Can my pet ride in the car?

Yes. Your pet can ride with our driver. Learn more about our pet transport service.

How long does it take to get my car across the country?

Our drivers typically cover 500 to 700 miles a day, so a cross-country trip usually takes about 4 to 6 days.

Is a professional driver safer than car shipping?

We think so. With car shipping, your car is loaded onto a truck with other vehicles and may pass through terminals. However, with us, one vetted driver takes your car straight to its destination, and you always know who has it.
