St. Petersburg sees steady vehicle shipping demand from snowbirds arriving seasonally, retirees relocating to Florida's Gulf Coast, and professionals moving within the Tampa Bay region. Many residents ship vehicles between St. Petersburg and cities like Tampa, Clearwater, Sarasota, Orlando, and out-of-state hubs such as New York, Chicago, and Atlanta. The area also attracts second-home buyers who need reliable vehicle transport during seasonal transitions.
The St. Petersburg auto transport market stays active year-round, with peak demand during winter months when snowbirds arrive and spring when they return north. The city's coastal location and proximity to major highways create consistent carrier flow throughout the Tampa Bay area. AmeriFreight Auto Transport helps residents and seasonal visitors move vehicles efficiently through this high-demand Gulf Coast market.
Common routes from St. Petersburg head north toward the Northeast and Midwest, west toward Texas, and across Florida to Orlando and Miami. Open transport typically ranges from $800-$1,300 depending on distance, while enclosed transport costs more for added protection, especially for high-value or classic vehicles.
Estimate ranges are provided for general planning purposes. Your AmeriFreight Auto Transport agent will provide a current estimate based on your specific vehicle, dates, and destination.
Whether you're shipping out of St. Petersburg or moving a vehicle into the area, we've got the service to match your needs.
St. Petersburg connects to major routes via I-275, which runs directly through the city and across the Sunshine Skyway Bridge toward Bradenton and Sarasota.
