Where in California and South Carolina?
Start with the two cities or ZIP codes. Next, tell us about your vehicle and pickup date.
Preparing your California pickup
California pickup planning starts with the exact region: a Los Angeles, Bay Area, Sacramento, or inland address changes the shipment endpoints. For a condominium, dealership, or hillside home, describe the loading access and have the vehicle ready outside a restricted garage when instructed.
- Pickup areas include Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose and Sacramento and other communities.
- Regional road network: I-5 · I-10 · I-15 · I-80 · US-101. The carrier confirms the actual route and local access.
Receiving your vehicle in South Carolina
For South Carolina delivery, identify the actual receiving town and explain any coastal-island, resort, or gated-community access rules. A receiver should be available at the approved loading point, even when personal travel or property check-in times are fixed.
- Delivery areas include Charleston, Columbia, Greenville, North Charleston and Myrtle Beach and other communities.
- Regional road network: I-95 · I-26 · I-85 · I-20 · I-77. Give the complete receiving address when requesting a quote.
