How much does it cost to ship a car from Connecticut to Texas?
Several variables decide the final cost. Vehicle make and model, together with the distance set the base price for shipping. Then the choice of carrier type enters the equation.
Shipping a non-running car drives the price up due to additional equipment. Remote areas of the country also cost more. However, current supply and demand decides the final price.

How long does it take to ship a car from Connecticut to Texas?
Shipping a car from Connecticut to Texas takes about 3 to 5 days. Various factors could affect the shipping times and this means that shipping time is always an estimate. Open auto transport is usually faster and cheaper due to high availability.
What services does CORSIA offer?
Corsia Logistics provides the following car shipping services:
by carrier type: open and enclosed trailer
by time frame: standard and expedited delivery
Choosing a carrier type really depends on the type of vehicle you need to ship. Standard everyday sedans, such as your Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla usually go on an open-air trailer. If you need to ship a high-end sports or luxury automobile, or any classic vehicle you should choose enclosed trailer.
Standard car shipping means that a carrier will pick up your vehicle within few days.
Expedited delivery could guarantee that your car is picked up or delivered on or by a specified date and time.
Open auto transport is the standard solution. It is faster and cheaper. Open carriers are readily available and this makes them efficient and preferred by private customers and businesses alike.
Enclosed auto transport is a preferred solution for sports and high-end automobiles. It offers complete protection from weather and road elements. However, it could take a bit longer to book and schedule. It is more expensive as well.
What documents do I need when shipping a car?
Domestic transport is easy. When shipping a car from Connecticut to Texas, you or someone on your behalf must release the vehicle to the carrier at pick-up.
The person at pick-up will also need to sign a Bill of Lading (BOL). The BOL is a receipt and an inspection report. When the carrier inspects the car you need to check with that all existing damages are marked before you sign. Never sign a blank or incomplete document.
From Connecticut to Texas
A small, yet prosperous state, Connecticut is a part of both the New England area and NY and NJ tri-state. It has the highest income per capita, second level of human development, highest median household income, and is also the fourth most-densely populated state in the US.
Hartford is the capital of Connecticut, Bridgeport is the largest town, and Greater Danbury is the largest metropolitan area. Greater Danbury is composed by the towns of a total of ten towns, with Danbury being the largest one.
The state has the stunning GDP of nearly $280 billion, and more than $80.000 of GDP per capita.
Connecticut is a champion when it comes to educational performance. The state ranks third in the country according to Education Week’s Quality Counts 2018 report.
Disadvantages
Despite having the second largest GDP per capita, Connecticut is famous for its difference in the income. There are many that earn lower than the numbers mentioned above. Other cons include:
The high income means high cost of living, too. And so are taxes, including fuel tax. Also, it can get really cold up there.
Jobs are scarce. Employers prefer Massachusetts, New York and New Jersey.
Why Texas? Yeehaa!
Just as Connecticut, Texas is an economic juggernaut, but has the strength in numbers. Most people find its climate and food more suiting their taste.
Austin is the capital, but it is only the third largest city in the state. Both Houston and San Antonio are considerably larger.
Economics
Most of the state’s economy is in high-tech fields, mainly space travel and medicine. The GDP of Texas exceeds US$1.9 trillion, ranking second in the United States. The state has abundant natural resources, especially oil, but tourism and higher education also bring benefits. The largest employers are the University of Texas at Austin, MD Anderson Cancer Ctr and MD Anderson.
High-Tech Development
This is where most of Houston’s nicknames come from. Lyndon Johnson Space Center is a major technology center. It is the main center of NASA’s manned spaceflight and the birthplace of the famous saying “Houston, we have a problem!”
Texas Medical Center
A global medical leader, with the most medical institutions clustered on one place, Texas Medical Center has more than 100,000 employees, receives 10 million patients every year, and has a GDP of 25 billion U.S. dollars.
Liberal Laws
The state’s liberal laws allow the peaceful existence of a large African – American, Asian, Hispanic, LGBTQ and Christian community.
Hartford and Austin head to head
The two capitals clash, but the differences are rather obvious. Austin seriously outnumbers Hartford. Both cities are rather young, but the capital of Texas is considerably pricier when it comes to median home price and housing. Hartford has a higher unemployment percentage, and higher costs of utilities, groceries, and transportation.
