Ohio to Georgia Auto Transport Challenges & Tips
Ohio to Georgia is a two- to four-day trip south on I-75. Mountain grades in Tennessee, Atlanta traffic and storms on the coast cause most of the delays. Here's what to plan for.
I-75 Over Jellico Mountain
Just south of the Kentucky line, I-75 climbs over Jellico Mountain in Tennessee, a long, steep grade where trucks slow to a crawl. Fog and winter ice are common there, and a crash can back traffic up for miles.
Atlanta Traffic
I-75, I-85 and I-20 all meet in downtown Atlanta, and traffic on the Downtown Connector and the I-285 loop is among the heaviest in the country. A driver who reaches Atlanta at rush hour can lose hours.
Hurricane Season
Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. When a storm threatens Savannah and the Georgia coast, carriers may hold deliveries until the roads reopen and evacuation traffic clears.
Tip: Avoid Masters Week in Augusta
Every April, the Masters golf tournament brings huge crowds to Augusta, and hotels and roads fill up for the week. If you are shipping to Augusta then, pick another date or expect a slower delivery.
Tip: Register Within 30 Days in Georgia
New residents must register within 30 days at the County Tag Office, and you need a Georgia driver's license first. Georgia charges a one-time title tax of 3% of the car's value. If you live in one of 13 metro Atlanta counties, you will also need an emissions test.
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.

Yes. Carriers with a winch can load and unload a car that doesn't run, as long as it rolls, steers and brakes. Expect to pay about $150 to $300 more than for a running car, and tell us the car doesn't run when you request quotes so you are matched with the right carrier. Shipping an Inoperable Vehicle explains how it works.
