Connecticut
Car shipping to and from Connecticut
Connecticut is a small state with busy roads, sitting between New York and the rest of New England. I-95 follows the shoreline and I-91 and I-84 meet in Hartford. We ship cars in and out of the state from our desk near Charlotte, NC.
- Shoreline, Hartford area and Fairfield County
- Open and enclosed trailers
- Same contact from quote to drop-off
Connecticut roads carriers use
I-95 runs along Long Island Sound from Greenwich through Stamford, Norwalk, Bridgeport and New Haven, then east past New London toward Rhode Island. I-91 runs north from New Haven through Hartford toward Springfield, Massachusetts. I-84 crosses from Danbury through Waterbury to Hartford and on into Massachusetts, and I-395 covers the eastern side of the state.
Car carriers stay on the interstates here. The Merritt Parkway is closed to commercial traffic, so a pickup in Fairfield County is usually planned from I-95 or I-84. Tight streets in older town centers sometimes mean meeting the driver at a nearby lot; we sort that out with you before pickup day.

- Sedans
- SUVs

Dealers in Connecticut
Connecticut stores trade with dealers across New England, New York and the Mid-Atlantic, and buy units at auctions in other states. We move dealer trades, auction purchases, new vehicle and customer deliveries, and transfers between stores in a dealer group. Several units at once is fine.
If the carrier you normally use cancels, call us at (980) 552-1101 and we step in as the backup hauler.
Shipping your own car
We ship single cars for people moving to or from Connecticut, students at Yale in New Haven or UConn in Storrs, families with orders to the Coast Guard Academy in New London or the submarine base in Groton, and buyers who found the right car a few states away. Snowbirds heading south for the season ship with us too.
Pick an open trailer for an everyday car or an enclosed trailer for a classic or high-value car. Our prep guide covers what to do before the driver arrives.
From quote to delivery
Tell us the pickup, the drop-off, the car and the date it is ready. A real person quotes every move. When you book, the carrier is vetted and the shipment is fully insured, and you get the driver, the truck and the pickup and delivery windows ahead of time.
Your order sits in the portal at fctorders.com. Log in with your email and a 6-digit code to see the driver's location while active, and to find the delivery BOL after drop-off. If plans change on the road, we call you first.

Connecticut car shipping questions
Can a car carrier reach my street in Fairfield County?
Often, yes. Where a street is too tight for a full carrier, we arrange to meet the driver at a nearby lot and confirm the spot with you before pickup day.
Do you ship from Connecticut to the Carolinas?
Yes. We ship anywhere in the continental U.S., and moves between Connecticut and the Carolinas are common.
Do you have an office in Connecticut?
No. FCT is based near Charlotte, NC, and arranges Connecticut pickups and deliveries with vetted, fully insured carriers.
