Massachusetts to Kansas Auto Transport Challenges & Tips
Massachusetts to Kansas is a long run west, about 1,350 to 1,600 miles. Snow on the way out, work zones in Missouri and spring storms on the plains cause most of the delays. Here's what to plan for.
Lake-Effect Snow on I-90
West of Albany, I-90 runs past Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo, Erie and Cleveland, some of the snowiest cities in the country. From December through February, lake-effect snow bands can close lanes on the Thruway and the Ohio Turnpike with little warning.
Spring Storms on the Plains
From April through June, Kansas gets some of the strongest storms in the country, with hail, high winds and tornadoes. Carriers pull over and wait out the worst of it, which can add a few hours or a day.
Work Zones on I-70 in Missouri
Missouri is adding a third lane to much of I-70 across the state. The work zones can slow trucks between St. Louis and Kansas City, especially around Columbia.
Tip: Be Flexible on Pickup Dates
A pickup window of two or three days lets a carrier fit your car onto a full truck, which often lowers the price and firms up the schedule.
Tip: Get the Inspection Before You Title in Kansas
Kansas requires title and registration for a car kept in the state 90 days or more. Before you title, take the car and your Massachusetts title to a Kansas motor vehicle inspection station for an inspection form, then bring that form, the title and proof of insurance to your county treasurer's motor vehicle office.
Tip: Prepare Your Vehicle Properly
Clean your car and remove personal items before pickup. Take date-stamped photos from every side, keep the gas tank at a quarter full or less, and check tire pressure. For a full checklist, read our article on Preparing Your Car for Transport.
