Door-to-door car shipping from Marathon and the Middle Keys north to Chicago. The northbound snowbird-return leg — about 1,515 miles, I-75 to I-65 North. When the season ends and it’s time to head back north, we pick your vehicle up right in the Keys and deliver it to your Chicago-area door. Same island-access expertise, the other direction.
Heading home for the season.
Keys to Chicago, the return run.
Marathon to Chicago is Midwest snowbird return, through Atlanta and Nashville. The car starts in the Middle Keys, runs US-1 up the Overseas Highway off the islands, then picks up the mainland corridor — I-75 to I-65 North — into the Chicago metro. At about 1,515 miles it’s a 5-7 days haul, and we handle the island-access pickup most national carriers won’t.

What sets your rate.
We don’t post a flat price for the Keys–Chicago 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.

Real feedback from snowbirds and residents who’ve shipped this northbound lane.
“We winter in the Middle Keys and head back to Chicago 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 Chicago.”
“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.”
