Cost factors
What moves the price of a Miramar shipment
Season
Florida's Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. Storms or evacuations, especially from August through October, can disrupt dispatch and make carrier availability less predictable.
Vehicle size
Across the Miami metro, SUVs, pickups and vans take more trailer space than sedans, so carriers may quote more for those vehicle types.
Pickup access
If your address in Monarch Lakes or Nautica has a tight street or gated access, a large carrier may need a nearby meeting point. That added coordination can affect the quote.
Open vs enclosed
Open carriers haul vehicles on an exposed trailer, while enclosed equipment adds protection from weather and road debris. The added protection generally costs more and can suit high-value cars.
Save money
5 ways to pay less (and wait less)
Keep your dates flexible
Offer flexible pickup dates and ask about carrier routing along I-75 or Florida's Turnpike; a wider window can make it easier to match your Miramar pickup with a truck's route.
Agree on a truck-friendly handoff
If a large carrier cannot reach your exact address in Nautica or Monarch Lakes, agree on a safe, accessible handoff near University Drive or US-27 before dispatch.
Confirm the delivery details
For a California or New York arrival, confirm the delivery address and a local contact before the vehicle reaches Broward to avoid a last-minute handoff change.
Compare like-for-like offers
Compare offers for the same transport type, vehicle condition and addresses. Check what pickup access each quote assumes before choosing.
Plan for storm threats
If storms threaten Broward, keep a backup handoff location ready and confirm the updated plan directly with the carrier before the car is en route.

Moving to Miramar? Sort out Florida insurance, title and registration after you establish residency. The checklist below covers the key state requirements for bringing your car to Florida.
New-resident deadlines
New residents must get Florida car insurance and title and register their vehicle within 10 days of establishing residency, and get a Florida driver license within 30 days. [FLHSMV]
Title transfer
Insure through a Florida-licensed agent, get the VIN checked in person and recorded on HSMV 82040 or HSMV 82042, then take forms, out-of-state title and insurance proof to your county tax collector for a Florida title and plate. [FLHSMV]
Insurance coverage
Before registration, show $10,000 PIP and $10,000 PDL; keep that coverage active even when the car is not being driven. [FLHSMV]

Florida has no vehicle emissions testing; the state ended its emissions inspection program on July 1, 2000. [EPA (Fed. Reg.)]
Window tint

FAQ
Miramar car shipping questions
How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Miramar?
Across the Miami metro, outbound quotes on record fall at $850–$1,275, while inbound quotes are $875–$1,200. These typical ranges reflect open transport for running vehicles and the middle half of customer quotes on record. Your exact price depends on the route, vehicle, access and service type; request a quote for your actual addresses.
How long does car shipping take?
Across the Miami metro, listed estimates are 1–5 days to New York, 4–9 days to Los Angeles and 0–3 days to Atlanta. These are typical days on the road after pickup, not from booking; estimates are not guarantees, and pickup timing is separate.
Is my car insured during transport?
Every carrier SAKAEM uses is FMCSA-licensed and insured, carrying at least $1,000,000 in liability coverage and $100,000 in cargo insurance. Walk around the car with the driver and note its condition on the Bill of Lading; inspect it again at delivery and document any new damage.
Can I put personal items in the car?
SAKAEM allows up to 100 lbs of personal items in the trunk or below the window line. Keep belongings secured and out of sight, and do not pack anything you need during transit. Confirm item-specific restrictions before loading rather than assuming every loose item can travel.
Can you ship a non-running car?
SAKAEM can ship a non-running vehicle if it rolls, brakes and steers, and a key is available. Tell us its condition when requesting a quote so the carrier can plan suitable loading and access. A car that cannot roll, brake or steer may need a different arrangement; SAKAEM does not ship boats.
How do I pay for car shipping?
Pay by card, or pay the carrier by cash or certified check; Zelle and Venmo are also accepted. Confirm the payment method and timing with SAKAEM and the assigned carrier before pickup, and keep your receipt. Follow the agreed payment instructions when the shipment is ready for payment.
Do I need to be present at pickup and delivery?
A designated adult needs to be at both pickup and delivery to inspect the car and sign the Bill of Lading. If you cannot attend, arrange an adult you trust to represent you, give them the keys and any relevant notes, and ask them to document the car's condition with the driver.
