City Spotlight: Auto Shipping to Vancouver

$20 says you assumed this blog post was about shipping a car to Vancouver, BC - but it's not! Believe it or not (and if you're not from the Pacific Northwest you probably won't believe it) there's actually a city named Vancouver just 300 miles south from Vancouver, BC, located in Washington State. It's actually a county seat, and has a pretty decent population for its size.

When it comes to shipping a car to or from Vancouver, you're in luck. It lies between Seattle and Portland, Oregon, and lies directly on a major interstate highway frequented by auto transport carriers, making it easy for them to get to and from the city. Snow is fairly uncommon during the winter months, which makes car shipping prices that much lower and easier to afford for most people. If you're looking to ship a car to Vancouver, Washington, you can check out our Auto Shipping Vancouver page for more information.

City Spotlight: Auto Shipping to Seattle

Located in the Pacific Northwest on the coast of the Pacific Ocean, Seattle is a major port city and one of the primary ports for vehicle shipping up to Anchorage, as well as shipping from various ports in Alaska. It was built primarily as a transportation and manufacturing hub in the area during the period of U.S. westward expansion, and has grown into the largest city in the state of Washington and is still one of the largest transportation hubs north of San Francisco.

Shipping a car to or from Seattle can be easy or difficult, depending on where you're shipping to. Shipping down to California, or other states in the southwest, is pretty easy because of the interstate highways and how they run; shipping east from Idaho or Montana may be more complicated, mainly because of the amount of snow those states get during the winter months and the relative lack of major east-west interstates running through the area.
