Route Overview

Keys to Boston, the return run.

Marathon to Boston is the full I-95 run up the entire East Coast. The car starts in the Middle Keys, runs US-1 up the Overseas Highway off the islands, then picks up the mainland corridor — US-1 to I-95 North — into the Boston metro. At about 1,645 miles it’s a 5-7 days haul, and we handle the island-access pickup most national carriers won’t.

Live Market Pricing

What sets your rate.

We don’t post a flat price for the Keys–Boston lane, because an honest quote moves with the market. Auto transport rates rise and fall with diesel prices and carrier demand — and snowbird-season return traffic tightens capacity in spring. We quote the real number live, the day you book.

Diesel & Demand
Fuel cost and how many carriers are running the lane that week are the biggest movers on a 1,645-mile haul.

Vehicle & Transport
Size and weight, running or not, and whether you choose open or enclosed all factor into the quote.

Timing & Season
Spring snowbird-return season is peak northbound demand — booking ahead locks a better rate.

Customer Reviews

Real feedback from snowbirds and residents who’ve shipped this northbound lane.

★★★★★

“We winter in the Middle Keys and head back to Boston every spring. ASNM picked the car up in Marathon and had it home before we landed. Third season using them.”

★★★★★

“Most carriers wouldn’t even quote the island pickup. ASNM found one who runs US-1 regularly. Easy door-to-door up to Boston.”

★★★★★

“Booked the enclosed option for the long haul north. Clear pickup window, no surprises on price, delivered on time. Will book the return trip south with them too.”

The questions Keys-to-Boston shippers ask most. Have one that’s not here? Add it to your quote and a specialist will answer directly.

There’s no flat rate — pricing on the Keys–Boston lane moves with diesel prices, carrier demand, and season. Spring snowbird-return traffic is the peak northbound window, so booking ahead helps. Tell us your vehicle, exact pickup and delivery, and timing, and we’ll quote the real number live — usually within the hour.
Yes — that’s our specialty. A lot of national carriers won’t run the island pickup, but we work with haulers who know US-1 and the Overseas Highway. We pick up door-to-door anywhere from Marathon through Key Colony, Grassy Key, Duck Key, and the rest of the Middle Keys.
Snowbird-return season runs roughly March through May, and it’s the busiest northbound stretch of the year. The earlier you reserve, the better the rate and the more pickup-window flexibility you’ll have. Many of our repeat snowbirds book their return at the same time they book the trip down.
Transit runs about 5-7 days for the ~1,645-mile haul — US-1 off the islands, then US-1 to I-95 North into the Boston metro. Pickup is typically 1-2 business days after booking, with expedited options if your timeline is tight.
Open transport is the economical, popular choice and is perfectly safe for the run. Enclosed is worth it for luxury, classic, or high-value vehicles, or if you want full protection from road spray and weather on the longer northbound corridors. We’ll quote both.
We’re a carrier-finder. We connect you directly with the licensed, vetted carrier who actually runs the Keys-to-Boston lane, so you know who’s moving your car. If you’d rather we handle everything end-to-end, we can — but either way, no anonymous load-board markup.
