What our Hialeah customers say about Sherpa:

Consumer Affairs
★★★★★

"Sherpa provided a very detailed account of what to expect throughout this entire process and guaranteed a pick up date within the time range I gave. Also, the driver was very friendly and professional. Overall, I'd recommend them to anyone."

Consumer Affairs
★★★★★

"Top Line Auto Service based out of California dropped the car off. The two brothers met me. I had spoken to Joseph on the phone, and figured out what direction they were coming from, which was east from Florida. And based on where I live, I gave them the best place that I thought would be the easiest to pull up an 18-wheeler, and with a truckload of cars, to offload it and meet them to where they could easily get back on the interstate again and go about their day without having to snake through city traffic."

Consumer Affairs
★★★★★

"It didn't take me too long to get my date I wanted to sent my car from Crestview, Florida to Denver Colorado. I gave Shane the date May 23rd I asked for and the driver arrived on that day I asked for. The dispatcher from the company assigned for me were incredible, the lady dispatcher were on top of informing me on date when the driver will come to pick my car."

Factors that affect Hialeah Car Shipping Prices

  • Trailer Type: Open trailers are the most common and cost-effective option for shipping cars to or from Hialeah. They're suitable for most vehicles. Enclosed trailers offer extra protection but cost about 50% more and may take longer for pickup or delivery.
  • Location: Hialeah's proximity to Miami and major highways like I-75 and Florida's Turnpike makes it easier and cheaper to ship cars to and from the area. Rural locations further from these routes may increase costs.
  • Pickup Window: Sherpa's most budget-friendly option is a five-day pickup window. If you need a faster pickup in Hialeah, expect to pay more for expedited service.
  • Vehicle Size: Larger, heavier vehicles cost more to ship. Also, cars with low ground clearance may require special handling, potentially increasing the price.
  • Vehicle Condition: Operable vehicles that can roll, brake, and steer are cheaper to ship. Inoperable cars need special equipment for loading, which increases costs.
  • Seasonal Factors: Hialeah's warm climate makes it a popular destination year-round. However, shipping costs may be higher during peak seasons like summer and January when demand is high.
  • Weather Considerations: While Hialeah's generally sunny weather is ideal for car shipping, the hurricane season (June to November) might affect transport schedules and potentially prices.

Understanding these factors can help you plan your car shipment to or from Hialeah more effectively. For more detailed information on cost factors, check out our car shipping calculator guide. If you're unsure whether to choose open or enclosed transport, learn more about the differences in our open vs. enclosed car shipping guide.

Tips & Tricks for Saving on Vehicle Shipping

  • Book early: Schedule your shipment at least two weeks in advance. This allows carriers to optimize routes and potentially offer discounts for bundling multiple vehicles from Hialeah.
  • Choose open transport: Open shipping provides the lowest rates and greatest flexibility for negotiating prices. While enclosed carriers are necessary for some vehicles, open transport is generally more cost-effective.
  • Consider location: Discuss pickup and dropoff locations with Sherpa advisors to find spots near major interstates like I-75 or Florida's Turnpike. This can significantly reduce fuel costs for carriers.
  • Empty your vehicle: Remove personal items to reduce weight and avoid potential liability issues. Car shipping companies aren't responsible for items left in the vehicle.
  • Be flexible: Offering flexibility in pickup and delivery dates and locations can help you secure better rates. This allows carriers to optimize their routes and loads more efficiently.
  • Opt for off-peak seasons: Consider shipping your vehicle during less busy times, avoiding the summer months and holidays when demand (and prices) are typically higher in Hialeah.
  • Utilize Sherpa's Price Lock Promise: While it's tempting to shop around, remember that Sherpa's quotes are realistic and guaranteed. Our Price Lock Promise ensures you won't pay more than the quoted price, providing peace of mind and potentially saving you money in the long run.

A Local Guide to Vehicle Transportion in Hialeah, Florida

When moving to or from Hialeah, Florida, it's crucial to understand the local vehicle requirements and regulations. Florida's SunPass is the primary toll transponder system in the area. If you're moving away, remember to remove your SunPass to avoid unnecessary charges. For those moving to Hialeah, you can easily purchase a SunPass online or at local retailers.

Florida requires vehicle registration within 30 days of establishing residency. You'll need to visit a local DMV office with proof of insurance, identification, and vehicle ownership. Hialeah doesn't have specific vehicle inspection laws, but it's always wise to keep your car in good condition due to the hot, humid climate.

Parking in Hialeah can be challenging, especially in busy areas. Consider applying for a residential parking permit if you'll be living in a high-traffic neighborhood. You can do this through the City of Hialeah's official website.

When settling in Hialeah, you'll need to set up utilities. Florida Power & Light (FPL) is the main electricity provider, while the City of Hialeah manages water services. For internet, popular providers include AT&T, Xfinity, and Spectrum.

Don't forget these important tasks:

  • Update your voter registration
  • Enroll kids in local schools (contact Miami-Dade County Public Schools)
  • Get a Hialeah Public Library card
  • If moving away, cancel local memberships and forward your mail

Hialeah's location near major highways like I-75 and Florida's Turnpike makes it convenient for auto transport. However, be prepared for potential traffic congestion, especially during rush hours. The city's tropical climate means hot, humid summers and mild winters, so ensure your vehicle is ready for these conditions.

By keeping these tips in mind, your move to or from Hialeah will be smoother, allowing you to focus on enjoying the vibrant culture and beautiful surroundings of this dynamic Florida city.

Hialeah, Florida Car Shipping FAQs

How do I prepare my vehicle for transit to or from Hialeah?

See our Vehicle Shipping Tips for details about how to prepare your vehicle to / from Hialeah. In short, you’ll want to remove any toll pass or fragile items, make sure you have a key available to provide the carrier, and remove any interior and exterior accessories that could be damaged in transit.

Is my vehicle insured transporting to or from Hialeah?

Yes, our quotes are all-inclusive. All of our carriers are required to have a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance. To ship your vehicle, we verify that the carrier’s insurance policy is valid and in good standing for the duration of your shipment.

All contracted carriers also add Sherpa as a Certificate Holder on their insurance policy.

How far out should I schedule my pickup service from Hialeah?

The sooner, the better. We recommend at least two weeks, but it’s ideal to broadcast your shipment as soon as possible so that carriers can bundle your shipment with others in the same location.

Do you offer Door to Door Shipments?

At the time of booking your shipment, we will ask for your preferred pickup and delivery address. As long as it is possible, the assigned carrier will pick up and deliver your vehicle to the addresses you specify. Of course, if there are transportation restrictions or safety challenges the carrier will work with you to arrange an alternative location, such as a nearby gas station or parking lot.

How do I pay for my auto transport to Hialeah?

No payment is due at the time of booking. We do require a payment method on file so that it is available to charge once a carrier is secured. We accept all major debit and credit cards, including Mastercard, Visa, Discover and American Express. The most convenient option is to pay for your shipment in full by credit card at the time a carrier is secured.

We also allow you to pay for your Initial Payment via credit or debit card and then pay the outstanding balance on delivery day via cash or a certified check made out to the carrier.

Can I pack personal items inside my vehicle?

Your Sherpa shipment includes up to 100 lbs of personal items or household goods stored in the trunk area or secured below the window line. If you are shipping to or from a port or your shipment includes ocean transit, your vehicle must be emptied of all items. Sherpa and your assigned carrier cannot be responsible for personal items left inside the vehicle. See our Vehicle Shipping Tips for more details.

Do I need to be present at both pickup and delivery?

Yes. It is important that you, or another adult that you trust, is there for pickup and delivery of your vehicle. This designated person plays an important role in the shipping process including documenting the state of the vehicle and signing the Bill of Lading, which acts as a receipt of the vehicle’s condition.
