Omaha
The largest city, on I-80 and I-680 at the Missouri River. Older neighborhoods like Dundee have tight streets.

Grand Island
In the middle of the state, on US-281 just off I-80.
Kearney
On I-80 at the Archway, where the sandhill cranes gather every spring.

Nebraska Questions
Can carriers reach towns away from I-80?
Yes, with some planning. Most carriers crossing Nebraska stay on I-80, which follows the Platte River across the state. For towns in the Sandhills, the Panhandle or the northeast, we set a meeting spot near a main highway and give the carrier extra time.
I’m stationed at Offutt. Can you ship my car?
Yes. Offutt is just south of Omaha, close to I-80 and I-29. Have your orders and report date handy, and ask about our military discount; proof of service is required.
I just moved to Nebraska. What do I need to register my car?
Nebraska gives new residents 30 days. A car titled in another state needs a sheriff’s inspection first, then you title and register at your county treasurer’s office.
Can I ship a car to Lincoln on a game weekend?
You can, but it’s easier not to. More than 80,000 fans fill Memorial Stadium on home Saturdays, and the streets around campus close. Pick a weekday for a Lincoln pickup or delivery in the fall.
What does it cost to ship a car to or from Nebraska?
Distance, the vehicle, open or enclosed, and the season. Omaha and Lincoln are on I-80, which keeps things simple. Get an exact quote or call (424) 453-1800.

Across the State on I-80
I-80 follows the Platte River for about 455 miles, from Omaha to the Wyoming line, and it’s one of the main truck routes across the country. That makes pickups along it, in Omaha, Lincoln, Grand Island, Kearney or North Platte, simple to schedule. Away from I-80, towns are smaller and farther apart, and the carrier may meet you on the nearest US highway.
Omaha and Lincoln Pickups
Newer neighborhoods in west Omaha and Lincoln usually have room for a carrier, though some HOAs restrict big trucks. Older streets in Dundee, Benson and near downtown Lincoln are tighter, so we may meet at a nearby lot. In winter, snow emergency routes and parking bans can change the plan. Tell us your street when you book.
