Why Choose Cross Country Valet?
Your Schedule, Your Dates
We work around your schedule, not ours. Tell us when you need your car delivered and we’ll make it happen — many clients fly to their destination in Florida and have their car waiting at the airport when they arrive.
No Weight Limits
With Cross Country Valet, there are no limits on what you can pack in your car. Moving boxes, luggage, golf clubs, personal belongings — fill it up. Most trucking companies cap additional cargo at 100 lbs. Not us.
Trusted, Vetted Drivers
We don’t hire strangers from online forums like some other driveaway services. We work with the same team of professional drivers for each and every job, all of whom have been thoroughly screened and vetted.
Faster Than a Truck
Our driveaway service is almost always cheaper and faster than sending your car on a truck. A typical turnaround is just 2-3 days with us, versus a week or more on a truck — more time with your car, more money in your pocket.
How Does Driveaway Work?
A driveaway service means that your vehicle is driven personally from your pickup address in Canada to your destination address in Florida by an experienced, professional driver. Compared to shipping your vehicle on a transport truck, a driveaway service is:
- Quicker
- Lower-Cost
- More Customizable
- Less Restrictive
When you work with Cross Country Valet, we will handle all the required paperwork to temporarily import your vehicle into the United States without your presence. As a registered carrier with U.S. Customs & Border Control, we are familiar with the various laws and procedures. Your vehicle will be fully insured during the duration of the trip under your existing insurance policy.
Common Destinations We SerVe
Tampa Car Transport
The Tampa Bay area is booming, and snowbirds love it for its numerous amenities and warm Gulf Coast waters. Ontario to Tampa is one of our most common winter routes at Cross Country Valet.
Miami Car Transport
A destination in its own right, Miami is also surrounded by snowbird hotspots like Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, and Boca Raton. Whatever your destination in metro Miami, we are here to help.
Naples Car Transport
Naples is famous for its high-end shopping and white sand beaches, so it’s no surprise that snowbirds flock here each winter. Our Naples car delivery service can help get your vehicle there.
Palm Beach Car Transport
Known for glamorous estates and world-glass golf courses, you can’t go wrong with a winter in Palm Beach. Choose Cross Country Valet to make your Palm Beach winter getaway that more enjoyable.
We Take Care of the Return Journey Too
While our service is for anyone needing a car moved between Canada and Florida, the majority of our clients are snowbirds who head to Florida for the winter and return to Canada in the spring. The good news is, our Florida to Canada car transport service works exactly the same way in reverse — a professional driver picks up your vehicle at your Florida address and personally delivers it to your door back home in Canada, while you fly in comfort.
Many of our clients use us for both legs of their snowbird journey. Once you’ve experienced the convenience of having your car waiting for you when you land, it’s hard to go back to making the drive yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the Florida vehicle delivery service cost?
The cost of the service to deliver a vehicle from Canada to Florida (or vice versa) is custom for each trip and depends on many factors including the specific date, the pick-up address, and the drop-off address. Reach out to us with your details to obtain an exact quote.
How long does it take to drive a car from Canada to Florida?
Most Canada to Florida trips take approximately 2-3 days depending on the pickup and drop-off locations.
Are you authorized to transport vehicles across the border without my presence?
Yes, all we require from you is a letter indicating that you have given us your permission to transport your vehicle into the United States. As a registered commercial vehicle carrier with U.S. Customs & Border Control, we handle all the required paperwork and work with a customs broker when required to ensure a smooth transaction.
What is your cancellation / refund policy?
A client may cancel their reservation at any time for any reason before their vehicle is in our possession. If cancelled before 21:00 EST two calendar days prior to pickup, you will not owe any further payments. If cancelled at or after 21:00 EST two calendar days prior to pickup, 50% of the total amount will be due. Deposits are retained in either scenario to cover costs associated with the reservation.
What about insurance?
The vast majority of Canadian car insurance policies come with permissive use insurance coverage. This means that you still have coverage if another driver operates your vehicle, as long as you have given them permission to do so. In the unlikely event that an at-fault insurance claim occurs while we are in possession of your vehicle, we will pay the deductible.
Can you pick my car up from anywhere in Canada or the United States?
As a Canadian company, we can deliver vehicles to and from anywhere within Canada. At this time, however, trips must either start or finish at a Canadian address. This means we can deliver a vehicle from an address in Canada to an address in Florida, or vice versa, but we are unable to deliver a vehicle between Florida and another U.S. address.
Are you able to transport any type of vehicle?
We transport almost every vehicle type, as long as it has four wheels and requires a standard driver’s license to operate. The car has to be in drivable condition. We can also tow a small trailer upon request.
