The Route

Fort Lauderdale to Key West — What You Need to Know

Shipping a vehicle from Fort Lauderdale to Key West — or back — is a specialized job. The route runs 160 miles down US-1 through the Florida Keys, crossing 42 bridges and passing through some of the most congested and narrow stretches of highway in the state.

Most national auto transport brokers struggle to fill this route consistently. Carriers unfamiliar with the Keys often underestimate the difficulty — from the weight-restricted bridges to the lack of any alternate road once you’re past Homestead. Scheduling on this corridor requires a carrier who actually commits to it.

We work exclusively with In-N-Out Keys for this route — a veteran-owned, BBB A+ rated carrier that has been running Fort Lauderdale to Key West daily since 2007. Daily runs mean real pickup windows, not open-ended availability estimates.

Whether you’re moving to the Keys, shipping a seasonal vehicle, relocating a classic car to a waterfront property, or need a one-way haul back to Fort Lauderdale — this is the right carrier for the job.

Common Questions

Fort Lauderdale to Key West Auto Shipping — FAQ

Answers to the questions we hear most often about this route.

How long does it take to ship a car from Fort Lauderdale to Key West?

Transit time is typically 1–2 days depending on your pickup location in Broward County and your delivery address in the Keys. Because In-N-Out Keys runs the route daily, there’s no waiting around for a carrier to become available — pickup can usually be scheduled within 1–2 business days of booking.

How much does it cost to ship a car to Key West from Fort Lauderdale?

Open transport typically ranges from $350–$475 for most standard vehicles. Enclosed transport for luxury, classic, or high-value cars runs $475–$690. Final pricing depends on your vehicle size, transport type, and how your schedule aligns with the carrier’s daily run. Submit the form above for an accurate quote on your specific shipment.

Can you ship a car to addresses between Fort Lauderdale and Key West — not just the endpoints?

Yes. In-N-Out Keys services all addresses along US-1 between Fort Lauderdale and Key West — including Key Largo, Tavernier, Islamorada, Duck Key, Marathon, Big Pine Key, Summerland Key, and all communities in between. When requesting your quote, just mention your specific pickup or delivery address and we’ll confirm coverage.

Why is shipping a car to the Florida Keys harder than other routes?

The Keys corridor presents unique challenges that most national carriers aren’t equipped to handle. Once you’re south of Homestead, US-1 is the only road — there are no alternate routes. The Overseas Highway crosses 42 bridges with weight and width restrictions that require specialized carrier equipment. Most standard auto transport carriers won’t commit to this route at all, or can’t service mid-Keys addresses. In-N-Out Keys was built specifically for this corridor.

Do you also ship cars from Key West back to Fort Lauderdale?

Yes — In-N-Out Keys runs daily in both directions. Whether you’re shipping from Fort Lauderdale to Key West or from Key West back to Fort Lauderdale (or anywhere in Broward County), the same daily schedule and service coverage applies. Just indicate your direction when requesting your quote.

Is enclosed transport available for this route?

Yes. Enclosed transport is available for luxury, classic, exotic, or high-value vehicles. It’s a popular option on this route given the number of high-end vehicles moving to and from waterfront properties in the Keys. Pricing for enclosed transport runs approximately 35–45% above open transport. Mention your preference when you request your quote.
