About Shipping in Los Angeles
Los Angeles, California is the second-largest city in the United States and the nation's largest vehicle market by volume. The Port of Los Angeles and adjacent Port of Long Beach together form the busiest container port complex in the Western Hemisphere, handling massive vehicle import volumes from Asia. The city's car culture and sprawling metro area make it the single most important market in the US vehicle transport industry.
The Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach is the primary entry point for Asian vehicle imports destined for the US market. Notorious traffic congestion can significantly delay local pickups and deliveries, particularly on the 405 and 10 freeways. California emissions and transport regulations are among the strictest in the country.

RV Shipping FAQ — Los Angeles
Common questions about shipping rvs in the Los Angeles area.
How much does it cost to ship an RV?
RV shipping costs typically range from $1,000 to $5,000+ depending on the RV type, size, distance, and transport method. Towable units on shorter routes start around $1,000-$2,000, while large Class A motorhomes on cross-country moves can cost $3,000-$5,000 or more. Drive-away service is often the most cost-effective option for drivable RVs.
How long does RV shipping take?
Transit times depend on distance and transport method. Regional moves (under 500 miles) typically take 3-5 days, mid-range routes average 5-8 days, and cross-country transport usually takes 8-14 days. Drive-away service may be faster since it doesn't require carrier scheduling.
Is my RV insured during shipping?
Yes, every RV shipment includes comprehensive cargo insurance. For drive-away service, our drivers carry full liability coverage. We recommend documenting your RV's condition with interior and exterior photos before pickup. Supplemental coverage is available for high-value units.
What types of RVs can you ship?
We transport all types of RVs including Class A, B, and C motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers, pop-up campers, and truck campers. Our carrier network includes specialists for every RV category and size.
Should I choose drive-away or tow-away service?
Drive-away is ideal for drivable motorhomes and is often more affordable for long distances. Tow-away is required for travel trailers and fifth wheels, and is also a good option if you prefer your motorhome not to accumulate road miles. We'll recommend the best option based on your RV type and route.
