Shipping a car from Florida to Wisconsin- how much does it cost?

Review the main factors that control the cost to ship a car. Please, keep in mind that prices change weekly and that is why a price quote is good for one week only. Several factors play a role and it is important to understand that. The price does not depend only on the type of car or the type of car carrier. The distance matter, but it is also not the only factor. Please, check below for all factors that affect the cost to ship a car. 

Vehicle make & model

Smaller cars are cheaper to ship, while bigger vehicles are more expensive. Hence, the make and model of your vehicle affect the price.

Transport Type

Open auto transport is the standard and most affordable way to ship a car. Enclosed carrier costs more. So the type of carrier also affects the price.

Distance

More miles means less per mile. Shorter distances still consume gas and require the same amount of work, but in the end it is fewer miles traveled, which increases the price per mile.

Location

Whether the car is coming and going to a major metro area or rural place matters. Fewer carriers travel to remote areas to pick-up or deliver vehicles.

Vehicle Condition

A vehicle that is not moving on its own power may require a winch or a forklift to be loaded. This increases the price.

Supply / Demand

At the end of the equation, we add current supply and demand. When demand is high the truck space is limited and this means higher prices.

Type of car shipping service to choose
Enclosed Auto Transport Corsia Logistics Porsche

Shipping a car from Florida to Wisconsin

From sunny Florida to snowy Wisconsin?

Known as America’s Dairyland, Wisconsin is the 23rd largest state covering 56,154 sq miles. It is also the 20th most populated in the US with a continuously growing population that reached over 5.7 Million in 2017.

With shores on Lake Michigan and Lake Superior, Wisconsin is also bordered with Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, and the Mississippi River. Divided into 72 counties, Wisconsin is one of the centers of German American and Scandinavian American culture in the States.

Florida, on the contrary, has a population of over 20 Million people— almost 4 times the population of Wisconsin, and South Florida is one of the most diverse parts of the state. If you don’t want to miss the diversity Florida offers, we would suggest you move to Milwaukee, one of the most diverse cities in Wisconsin.

The weather will become a big issue if you are not ready to let go of Florida’s tropical and subtropical sunny days and warm waters, and wonderful climate and scenery. As a snowbird, you will soon start getting used to Wisconsin’s cold and snowy winters which are great for winter sports. Wisconsin warm summers bring thousands of vacationers every year, despite the thunderstorm phenomenon, which happens often during the summer time.

However, if you are a snowbird then you are ok because at least you get to spend the winters in Florida. Summers and springs in Wisconsin you know will be sunny and green. Fall is also a beautiful season there and this is enough for many people to prefer to live there. Let’s see now what other reasons people have to move to Wisconsin.

Housing in Wisconsin is good!

Housing costs in Wisconsin are way lower compared to Florida and almost 15% lower than the average housing costs in the whole of US. Compared to most US states, rents can be about $500 less and drop significantly in Wisconsin’s northern and central parts. If you are moving from Florida to find housing in Green Bay and Appleton, be ready to find a home for at least 20% less compared to the national average.

Public Transportation and Employment

The transportation network of Wisconsin consists of  81 Public transit and shared ride systems, 121 public airports, 29 commerce ports, as well as 36,000 miles of railroads, 11,800 miles of state and interstate highways, and 103,000 miles of country highways, local streets and roads, offering various transportation options for all its inhabitants. You can find more info on Wisconsin Department of Transportation.

Wisconsin also offers job opportunities, if you will be looking for a job once you move there. Among the main contributors in the state’s economy are manufacturing, information technology, and tourism. With a thriving start-up culture, many Wisconsin cities such as Madison and La Crosse, are ranked among the best cities for entrepreneurs in the US. Milwaukee, for example, is among the 13 worldwide United Nations Global Compact Innovating Cities and is one of the only two North American cities that made it on the list.

What to do in Wisconsin? A lot you can do in Wisconsin!

No matter where you choose to live in Wisconsin, you will never run out of things to do. Home to Egg Harbor, one of the coolest small towns in America, Wisconsin offers several music and cheese-related festivals throughout the year, and freshly produced food straight from the farms. If you’ve considered yourself an outdoorsy person in Florida, you are about to continue your outdoorsy lifestyle in any Wisconsin city as well. With 13 state forests, 84,000 and 15,000 miles of river and lakes, 47 state parks, and 76 state wildlife areas, Wisconsin’s unique geography is waiting for you to explore it as soon as you settle.

The state is also considered the water park capital on the world as it has over 200 water park slides. Its largest water park Noah’s Ark, is also the largest one in America.

Moving from Florida to Wisconsin with a car

Once you move to Wisconsin, you will have to transfer your driver’s license at your local Wisconsin DMV office within the first 60 days after you become a resident. After you do that, you can proceed with registering your car with the DMV. If you own an off-road vehicle, moped, RV, or any other special vehicle, you need to register it with that local DMV as well. To pay the fees and submit all the needed documents, you will need to pay your local DMV office a visit.
