How do I move a car to another state?
I’m going to be relocating for my job. I’m moving from Texas to South Carolina. How can I move my car to another state without driving it?

Congrats on the new opportunity! There are some different options to move your car to another state. They vary by price and convenience.
If you’re renting a moving truck, you may be able to hitch your car to the back. However, you’ll want to make sure your vehicle is compatible with the hitch or trailer you choose, as not all cars are suited for this type of transport.
Another option is to hire an auto transporter. These professionals will load your car onto an open-air or enclosed truck bed and deliver it to your new city. The cost for this can range from $500 to over $1,000 depending on the delivery distance, the type of truck you choose, and the size of your vehicle.
Once you make the move, don’t forget to inform your car insurance provider. Since you have to make changes to your policy anyway, why not take a minute to make sure you’re not overpaying for insurance.
