Electric cars have moved firmly into the mainstream, and that shift brings a practical question many owners never expected to ask: how do you move an EV a long way without driving it? You might be relocating to the United States, buying a car from a seller in another state, or managing a fleet across several locations. In each case, you need a shipper that understands what makes electric vehicles different. SGT Auto Transport has built a dedicated service around exactly that, combining specialist handling with data-driven pricing to make EV shipping simpler, safer, and more predictable.
SGT Auto Transport is a US vehicle shipping company based in New York, with more than a decade of experience moving cars, motorcycles, and specialist vehicles across the country. The company has delivered more than 150,000 vehicles for over 120,000 customers and holds a 4.7 overall customer rating across major review platforms. It is fully licensed with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and the US Department of Transportation.
Rather than running its own fleet, SGT works with a nationwide network of more than 25,000 vetted, licensed, and insured carriers. That scale allows it to offer door-to-door shipping across the continental US and to Hawaii. The online marketplace uShip also rates SGT as one of the most trusted car shipping companies in the country.
The growth of electric mobility makes specialist shipping more relevant every year. According to the SMMT, battery electric cars took 23.4% of the UK new car market in 2025, which is close to one in four new cars sold. A similar shift is under way in the US, and as the number of EVs grows, so does the number changing hands across long distances.
SGT has responded with a dedicated EV shipping service rather than treating electric cars as standard vehicles. It also runs regular EV shipping discounts, which help offset the higher cost of moving heavier, higher-value electric models.
The process starts with an instant online quote. SGT’s calculator runs on the company’s own AI pricing model, which tracks fuel costs and real-time carrier demand to produce accurate, market-based rates. Booking requires no upfront payment, and SGT offers a price match guarantee on comparable service.
Once you book an order, SGT assigns the shipment to a carrier experienced with EVs. Most manufacturers place the battery pack beneath the floor, so carriers use ramps with enough clearance to load the car without damaging its underside. Carriers also position heavier models, such as the Rivian R1T or GMC Hummer EV, carefully to manage weight distribution on the trailer.
Customers can choose between two main options:
For owners who want the highest level of care, a white-glove tier adds priority scheduling, climate-controlled enclosed trailers, and hydraulic ramps. Every shipment includes carrier insurance, door-to-door delivery, and 24/7 tracking.
A little preparation keeps collection quick and trouble-free:
For EV owners, SGT appeals by combining specialist knowledge with transparent pricing. Its AI-powered quotes remove much of the guesswork, and the lack of upfront fees makes booking low-risk. Its large carrier network usually means an experienced driver is available on popular routes. Thousands of verified reviews also point to consistent communication and on-time delivery.
The service extends beyond individual drivers. SGT supports multi-vehicle shipments to multiple addresses, which makes it a practical option for dealerships, fleet operators, and collectors moving several electric cars at once.
Moving an electric car doesn’t have to be stressful when the shipper understands the vehicle. With specialist handling, data-driven pricing, and an experienced carrier network, SGT Auto Transport’s EV shipping service gives electric car owners a straightforward way to move their vehicle safely, from the first quote to delivery at the door.

As electric cars take a growing share of the road on both sides of the Atlantic, a specialist shipper makes all the difference. For anyone moving an EV across the US, SGT Auto Transport offers the experience, transparency, and care a modern electric car needs.
