Where in Maine and Iowa?
Start with the two cities or ZIP codes. Next, tell us about your vehicle and pickup date.
Preparing your Maine pickup
For Maine pickup, distinguish the southern coastal area, an inland town, or a northern location using the actual address. Seasonal homes and private roads need a keyholder and a clear description of access, including any surface or turning limitations.
- Pickup areas include Portland, Lewiston, Bangor, Auburn and South Portland and other communities.
- Regional road network: I-95 · I-295 · I-195. The carrier confirms the actual route and local access.
Receiving your vehicle in Iowa
For Iowa delivery, make sure the receiver can reach the handoff location even if the home or business is outside town. Discuss driveway surfaces and trailer turning room, and check current weather and road conditions near the delivery date.
- Delivery areas include Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport, Iowa City and Sioux City and other communities.
- Regional road network: I-80 · I-35 · I-380 · I-29. Give the complete receiving address when requesting a quote.

Road distance depends on the actual addresses; some listed metros have no coordinate reference and therefore show no distance. Coordinate reference: US Census Gazetteer files.
