Sakaem Logistics transported my son's Acura from Los Angeles, CA to Waco, Texas in 5 days. Tim, who drove the transport was professional and courteous and kept communications prior to pickup and close to delivery time. Everything went smoothly with no issues. Price was competitive with other firms. I will use Sakaem again and highly recommend them for your transport needs.
A little late on picking up the vehicle, but absolutely exceeded expectations at getting the vehicle delivered earlier than any of us expected. Car was in perfect shape and the driver (Nicoli) was very patient and pleasant to deal with. Truly changed my mind about shipping a vehicle across country in the future. An amazingly great experience. Worth every penny.
Omg!!!! I had the most amazing experience!! From start to finish they were amazing great communication answered every and any questions I had! Price was perfect and no hassle. Vehicle arrived early. From PA to LA hassle free no worries Driver was very helpful and called and kept me informed. Thank you so very much for the freedom to not be stressed in the process!!
I-35 connects New Braunfels to north–south carrier routes, but longer or less-direct lanes take more driver time. In-state Texas moves are rare among departures across the San Antonio metro, so route availability can differ by destination.
Gulf Coast hurricane season can disrupt routes near Houston, Galveston, and Corpus Christi; rare winter ice can briefly close highways in North and Central Texas. Either can change the route and carrier schedule for New Braunfels shipments.
A sedan takes less trailer space than an SUV or pickup, so larger vehicles can use more deck space and may cost more. A vehicle that cannot run may also need special loading equipment.
Car haulers need room to turn, stage, and load. Near Mill Street, Downtown, Sophienburg Hill, or Stock historic districts, tight streets or gated access may mean meeting the driver at a wider nearby location.
Open transport is a practical choice for everyday vehicles. Enclosed service adds protection from weather and road debris and usually costs more, so it can suit a high-value or carefully restored car.
Offer a flexible pickup window instead of insisting on one exact day. That gives dispatch more room to match your shipment with a carrier traveling through the I-35 corridor.
Mention lifted suspension, oversized tires, racks, or other changes when you request a quote so the carrier can plan for your vehicle.
If your address is near Mill Street or Downtown Historic District, ask the carrier to confirm truck access before pickup and agree on a suitable nearby meeting point if needed.
For a move that uses Gulf Coast routes, keep an eye on storm advisories and stay reachable in case the carrier needs to discuss routing or timing.
Photograph the car and note existing marks before loading. Keep those records available so you can compare the vehicle’s condition at delivery.

Moving to New Braunfels means your car will need Texas registration and title paperwork after arrival. Check the Comal County steps below while you plan delivery.
Register your car in Texas within 30 days of moving to the state or you may have to pay penalty fees. [TxDMV]
Get Texas insurance first. Comal County is not on Texas’s emissions-test list, so confirm the VIN yourself on Form 130-U; take your out-of-state title or registration, completed form, ID, and proof of insurance to the county tax office. [TxDMV]
Texas requires 30/60/25 liability coverage: $30,000 for injuries per person, up to $60,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage. [TDI]
Since January 1, 2025, regular non-commercial cars no longer need a safety inspection in Texas. You pay a $7.50 inspection program replacement fee when registering. [TxDMV]
Front side windows must let in at least 25% of light and reflect no more than 25%. Windshield tint is allowed only above the AS-1 line or in the top 5 inches. [Tex. Transp. Code 547.613]

New to auto transport? Here's how to ship a car, step by step.
On record in New Braunfels, typical open-transport quotes for running cars fall at $825–$1,100 outbound and $925–$1,225 inbound; these are the middle half of quotes, not a fixed rate. Vehicle type, operability, route, and pickup access affect your final quote. Get a route-specific estimate for your dates and car.
Across the San Antonio metro’s listed destination lanes, road estimates include 1–5 days to Miami, 2–6 days to Washington, DC, and 3–7 days to Seattle. Transit starts after pickup, and these estimates aren’t guarantees; your carrier’s route and conditions affect the trip.
SAKAEM uses FMCSA-licensed and insured carriers; they carry at least $1,000,000 in liability coverage and $100,000 in cargo insurance. Ask how to report a claim and what photos or documents to keep before your vehicle is collected. Knowing the process ahead of time makes it easier to act if you spot damage.
You can place up to 100 lbs of personal items in the trunk or below the window line. Keep them secured and remove valuables, documents, and anything that could shift or block the driver’s view. Tell SAKAEM in advance if you need to ship more, since the carrier may not accept extra cargo.
Yes. SAKAEM can ship a non-running vehicle if it rolls, brakes, and steers, and you provide a key. Tell us its condition before booking and make sure the pickup spot allows the carrier to load it safely. If it cannot roll, brake, or steer, share those limits upfront so the right plan can be discussed.
You can pay by card, or pay the carrier with cash or certified check; Zelle and Venmo are accepted. Confirm the method and amount with SAKAEM before pickup, then have the agreed payment ready for the carrier. That keeps payment clear at the handoff and avoids last-minute confusion.
A designated adult must be at pickup and delivery to inspect the vehicle and sign the Bill of Lading. If you cannot attend, arrange another adult before the carrier arrives and make sure they have the keys and can discuss the vehicle’s condition. This helps keep both handoffs clear.
