First, and perhaps most obvious, you can drive your car to your new destination, depending on you willingness to do so (you might not want to drive all the way across the country, but on the other hand it can be a fun way to see the US). Make an adventure out of it if you have time (remember the moving truck will take a while to get there too), plan some touristy things to do along the way, and take plenty of photos to commemorate the trip. Do keep in mind the potential for weather issues - driving across the northern plains in January may NOT be prudent.

The second choice is to ship the car. There are several options here.

• The moving company can load the car on a trailer and tow it behind the truck. We did this on our trip from Boston to Carlsbad.
• The moving company may load the car right into the moving van itself if it is a big truck. This was how we moved one vehicle from Minneapolis to Boston.
• You can arrange your own shipping through a car transportation company or move it by train.
• If you are moving overseas the vehicle will likely go by ship with the household goods containers. It could be more cost effective to sell your car stateside and simply buy a new one in your new home
