So we set out to create a company that would be different. We want to walk you through how the process works and we guarantee to match any price you hear from a competitor.

We’re a scrappy team that looks forward to earning your business.

Preparing your vehicle for the New York City to Las Vegas route is simple but important. Start by removing all personal items from inside your car – this includes toll passes like E-ZPass, GPS devices, phone chargers, and any loose items that could shift during the 2,500+ mile journey across the country.

Key preparation steps:

• Remove or secure exterior accessories (bike racks, spoilers, antennas)
• Keep your gas tank between 1/4 and 1/2 full
• Have a spare key ready for the carrier
• Document existing damage with photos
• Disable your car alarm

Since you’re shipping cross-country from the East Coast to Nevada, your vehicle will experience different weather conditions. Make sure your car is clean so the carrier can easily spot any existing scratches or dents during pickup in NYC.

For a complete checklist and more detailed tips, check out our Vehicle Shipping Guide. Following these steps will help ensure your car arrives safely in Las Vegas.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured during transport from New York City, NY to Las Vegas, NV. At Sakaem Logistics, we require all our carriers to maintain a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance.

Before your car leaves New York City, we verify that your carrier’s insurance is active and valid. This coverage protects your vehicle for the entire 2,500-mile journey to Las Vegas. You’ll receive a copy of the carrier’s insurance certificate for your records.

What this means for you: If damage occurs during transport, the carrier’s insurance covers repairs or replacement costs. Our team helps you file any claims quickly and easily.

Unlike large brokers who may cut corners, we personally check every carrier’s insurance status. This gives you peace of mind knowing your vehicle is protected from pickup in NYC to delivery in Las Vegas.

For car shipping from New York City to Las Vegas, we recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance. This popular cross-country route (about 2,500 miles) gives carriers time to find other vehicles heading west, which helps keep your costs down.

Booking early offers several benefits:

• Better pricing: Carriers can bundle multiple cars on the same route
• More carrier options: You’re not limited to last-minute availability
• Flexible scheduling: You can choose pickup dates that work best for you

If you need faster service, we can often arrange pickup within 3-7 days, but expect to pay premium rates. The NYC to Vegas route is busy year-round, so even short-notice shipments are usually possible – just more expensive.

Pro tip: Avoid booking during peak moving season (summer months) if possible, as demand is highest and prices increase accordingly.

We accept all forms of payment. We can arrange credit cards or arrange for you to pay the carrier directly through cash/certified check. We even accept payment via Cash/Zelle/Venmo.

Your shipment with SAKAEM includes up to 100 lbs of personal items or household goods stored in the trunk area or secured below the window line. If your shipment includes ocean transit (Hawaii shipments), your vehicle must be emptied of all items. SAKAEM and your assigned carrier are not responsible for personal items left inside your vehicle. See our Auto Transport Process Article for more details.

A designated (adult) must be present at pickup and delivery. This designated person plays an important role in the shipping process including documenting the state of the vehicle and signing the Bill of Lading, which acts as a receipt of the vehicle’s condition.

When shipping your car from New York City to Las Vegas, you’ll choose between two main transport methods:

Open Auto Transport: Your vehicle travels on an open trailer exposed to weather and road elements. This is the most popular choice because it costs 40-60% less than enclosed transport. Most everyday vehicles ship safely this way, and it’s what you see on highways daily.

Enclosed Auto Transport: Your car rides inside a covered trailer, protected from weather, debris, and road salt. This premium service costs more but offers maximum protection for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom paint jobs.

For the 2,500-mile journey from NYC to Vegas, enclosed transport makes sense if your vehicle is worth over $50,000 or has sentimental value. Most standard cars arrive safely with open transport at a much lower cost.

At Sakaem Logistics, we help you choose the right option based on your vehicle’s value and your budget – no pressure, just honest advice.

Yes, Sakaem Logistics offers door-to-door auto transport service from New York City, NY to Las Vegas, NV. This means we’ll pick up your car right from your home, office, or preferred location in NYC and deliver it directly to your chosen address in Las Vegas.

When you book with us, simply provide your pickup and delivery addresses. Our carrier will coordinate with you to schedule convenient times for both pickup and drop-off. If your street has restrictions like low-hanging branches, narrow roads, or parking limitations, don’t worry – our driver will work with you to find a safe nearby location like a parking lot or gas station.

This door-to-door service saves you time and hassle compared to terminal-to-terminal shipping. You won’t need to drive to a depot or arrange extra transportation. It’s especially helpful for busy New Yorkers making the move to Las Vegas who want a smooth, convenient car shipping experience.

We transport sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, electric vehicles, vans and motorcycles across all 48 continental states + Hawaii. Our services even provide shipment for golf carts, ATVs, or RVs. We can ship vehicles that don’t run so long as the vehicle can roll, brake, and steer, and that you can provide the carrier with a key to the vehicle. The only exception is boats, which we do not transport.
