San Jose is the largest city in Northern California and the anchor of our carrier network. With more than a million residents, a constant churn of tech relocations, and Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC) on the north side of town, there is never a shortage of trucks heading in or out. That density is good news for you: San Jose shipments typically get picked up within 1–3 days, often faster than anywhere else in the Bay Area.

From our office at 99 N First St we dispatch carriers across every San Jose neighborhood — Willow Glen, Almaden Valley, Evergreen, Berryessa, Cambrian Park, Japantown, Rose Garden, Alum Rock, Silver Creek and the downtown core — and out to the rest of Santa Clara County. Large car haulers stage along North First Street, Monterey Road and the Coyote Valley logistics corridor, so loading is quick wherever you are in the city.

Why San Jose is one of our fastest lanes

  • Three interstates, one airport. I-280, I-880, US-101 and SR-87 converge here, and SJC sits right off 101. Carriers running the I-5 and I-80 corridors pass through daily.
  • Tech relocations drive volume. Apple, Cisco, Adobe, PayPal, Zoom and eBay all headquarter in or next to San Jose; we move cars for new hires and transfers every week, which keeps capacity high and prices competitive.
  • Big-street loading. Downtown and North San Jose have wide arterials. If your street in Willow Glen or Naglee Park is too tight for a 75-foot hauler, drivers usually meet at the Westfield Oakridge, Eastridge or Santana Row lots.
  • Dealer and auction pickups. We regularly collect from Stevens Creek Blvd dealerships and the Copart and IAA yards in the South Bay.

San Jose car shipping tips

  • Pickup from downtown high-rises: most buildings on First, Second and Market Streets don't have truck access — plan to meet the driver at the SAP Center or Diridon Station lots.
  • Shipping to the East Coast? Summer departures out of San Jose fill fast with student and intern moves; book 10+ days ahead in June–August.
  • Cars bought at Bay Area auctions can be picked up directly from the lot — just add the lot number and buyer ID to your order.

FAQ

San Jose car shipping FAQ

How much does it cost to ship a car from San Jose?

Open transport from San Jose runs about $350–$550 to Southern California, $650–$900 to the Pacific Northwest or Mountain states, and $1,200–$1,600 to the East Coast. Enclosed adds 40–60%. Use the instant quote tool for your exact lane.

Where do carriers pick up in downtown San Jose?

Most downtown streets can't take a full-size car hauler, so drivers coordinate a nearby lot — commonly near Diridon Station, the SAP Center or along North First Street near our office.

Can you ship my car from SJC airport?

Not from the terminals, but we can pick up from long-term parking or any address near the airport once you've landed or before you fly.
