Terminal-to-Terminal

Terminal-to-terminal shipping is a vehicle transport method where the customer drops off and picks up their car at designated regional storage facilities, also known as terminals. These terminals are strategically located in or near major metropolitan areas to provide accessible drop-off and retrieval points.

At Interlane, we offer terminal-to-terminal transport as a budget-friendly alternative to door-to-door shipping. This method is especially useful for customers with flexible schedules or for those in locations that are difficult for large transport trucks to access.

The vehicle remains secure at the terminal while awaiting pickup or delivery, and customers are typically provided with clear instructions on where and when to drop off or collect their vehicle. Terminals are staffed and often offer additional services such as inspections and vehicle condition reports.

While this method may require extra travel on the customer’s part, it can result in significant cost savings. It’s also an efficient solution when shipping multiple vehicles or when coordinating across varied timelines.

In summary:

  • Requires drop-off and pickup at designated storage terminals
  • Often more affordable than door-to-door shipping
  • Ideal for flexible customers or hard-to-reach locations
  • Vehicle is stored securely until picked up or dispatched
  • Available in major cities and regional hubs
