Text (315) 999-1132 Get an instant online quoteMost pages on this site describe a lane we drive to. This one is different: Utica is the lane we drive from. Auto Transport Solutions is headquartered in Clinton, NY — a 15-minute hop from Utica University on Burrstone Road and from SUNY Polytechnic up in Marcy. Our car haulers stage from this area, our drivers sleep here between runs, and Thruway exit 31 is the on-ramp for nearly every cross-country trip we make. When somebody in Utica books a transport, there's no repositioning a truck from three states away — one of ours is usually already in the neighborhood.
That's why a Utica-area pickup gets our best pricing anywhere: from $1,499 for a sedan to California, Arizona, or Nevada. The typical jobs here are Utica University and SUNY Poly students heading home for summer, families relocating along the NY ↔ CA corridor, and snowbirds — and around 25,000+ transports in, we've seen most versions of each. December break and May move-out fill up first, so text a couple of weeks ahead if you're on the school calendar.
