Getting a car to or from Dartmouth on the D-Plan's odd calendar — from California, Arizona, Nevada, and everywhere in between. Door-to-door, on our own trucks, with the driver assigned the day you book.
Text (315) 999-1132 Get an instant online quoteFor a rural Ivy, Hanover is surprisingly easy trucking. The town sits just off I-91 on the Connecticut River, and I-89 ends a few miles south near Lebanon — the two interstates meet right there in the Upper Valley at White River Junction. Our haulers are already running that junction on the NY–New England lanes, so a Dartmouth pickup isn't a detour, it's an exit.
What makes Dartmouth different is the calendar. The D-Plan spreads moves across the whole year: freshmen arrive in September, but students also rotate in and out in January, March, and June, and every sophomore spends a summer in Hanover. Brokers staff up for the May-and-August student rush; we simply keep running, so an off-term move books the same as any other. On pickup day the driver texts you a plan — a full-size car hauler is about 75 feet long, which rules out Main Street and the blocks around the Green, so he stages at a safe, legal, wide spot nearby and either Ubers over to you or has you come out to the truck.
Pricing follows the pickup location: a sedan from a California, Arizona, or Nevada pickup delivered to Hanover is $2,000 flat; getting the car home from New Hampshire starts at $2,500 (SUV +$200, pickup truck +$600 either way). A $100 deposit applies to the total, and the balance is paid on delivery by Zelle, cash, or Venmo — after you've inspected the car.
