Everything You Need to Know About the State of Nevada (NV)
Nevada is the seventh largest state in the country based on the surface area. However, it is one of the sparsely populated areas in the country, with Carson City as its state capital. Gambling is legal in Nevada, and Las Vegas, the state’s largest city, hosts several magnificent casinos. Although legal, gambling was banned in Nevada in October 1910 and was re-legalized in 1931 during the Great Depression.
The incandescent city has many things to offer its tourists, with a brilliant setup for entertainment destinations. Nevada is also home to the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. The dam is the single biggest public works project the United States has ever made, and Lake Mead is the largest reservoir in the country.
The state shares borders with Oregon to its northwest area, Idaho to its northeast, and California to the west. Also, it is bordered by Arizona to the southeast and Utah to the east.
Nevada became a state on 31st October 1864 and has the nicknames Battle-Born State, Sagebrush State, and Silver State. Its motto is All for Our Country.
On 1st March 1869, Nevada became the first state to approve the 15th Amendment to the United States Constitution, giving African-American men the right to vote.
The Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park in Nevada has the largest known Shonisaurus popularis ichthyosaur fossils. These are extinct marine reptiles ranging from 2 feet to over 50 feet long in size. The reptiles swam in the ocean that covered central Nevada 225 million years ago during the Triassic Period.
Between 1876 and 1878, the Comstock Lode manufactured silver ore amounting to approximately $36 million. This amount had risen to $300 million by 1882 for gold and silver.
The Central Intelligence Agency created Area 51 in 1955 to develop and test covert military projects. One of the projects birthed the Archangel-12 (A-12) stealth plane. The plane traveled more than 2,000 miles an hour and could navigate the continental U.S. in seventy minutes.
After China, Australia, and South Africa, Nevada is the fourth-largest producer of gold in the world. They are responsible for supplying three-quarters of all the gold mined in the United States.
The Federal Government owns nearly 85% of the land in Nevada.
Car Shipping In Nevada
With its breathtaking scenery and wealth of options, Nevada provides a variety of reasons for people to think about moving there, whether it be for a temporary stay or a long-term relocation. Organizing the relocation of your vehicle might be a major issue among the many activities and obligations involved with such a transition. But, if you leave the shipping procedure in the hands of qualified experts, you may feel assured leaving moving your automobile aside and concentrating on other important issues.
Nevada is a desirable place for a variety of reasons, including work-related relocations, lifestyle changes, and recreational excursions. This is due to its beauty and diversity. People are sufficiently encouraged to select Nevada as their new home or temporary habitation by the state’s fascinating beauty, dynamic communities, and wide variety of activities and attractions. It’s important to assign some tasks, like transporting your automobile, to dependable and experienced service providers throughout the planning and execution of such a move in order to reduce stress and workload. By doing this, you can focus your time and effort on other important areas of your relocation, resulting in a less stressful and more pleasurable move.
All you need to know about automobile shipping in Nevada is outlined in the information below:
Choosing the Best Car Shipping Company
The shipping company you choose will have a big impact on how smoothly your automobile is shipped. Therefore, it is essential that you carefully choose the business. While selecting a car transportation company, keep the following in mind.
Experience
Companies that have been in the business for a while are more familiar with the process. They also know what pitfalls to avoid. Therefore, when choosing a company, it is best to find one with significant experience with car shipping. Also, you should confirm that they are specifically familiar with Nevada operations.
Reputation
Integrity is a crucial tenet of any company. Ensure the company you intend to engage in has proven its integrity. Find out the experiences of people who have worked with them before and be sure they gave positive feedback and recommendation.
Licenses and Registration
Be sure to confirm they have the required licenses and registration to practice as a car shipping company in Nevada.
Insurance Coverage
Enquire about the insurance coverage the company offers. The car shipping company takes responsibility for your car’s safety. Hence, they bear the cost of any damage to your car when it is in their care. This is why their insurance coverage is an essential factor.
Solely on your insurance coverage. This is when this document is required.
Factors Influencing Car Shipping Costs in Nevada
Method of Transportation
There are two ways to ship automobiles. The two approaches are open and enclosed. A less expensive delivery option is the open method. The automobiles are transported in an open trailer. Nevertheless, because it exposes automobiles to weather conditions including rain, snow, and the sun, this strategy is not the safest option if you are transporting a brand new vehicle, a classic or vintage car or a highline luxury vehicle.
Yet, using an enclosed carrier to transport the cars makes it safer because it shields them from the elements. The enclosed approach is more expensive, compared to the other.
Car Specification
The type of car to be shipped also influences the shipping cost. Typically, vehicles that weigh more and occupy more space cost more than smaller and lighter cars. As a result, it is usually advised that if you have more than one car that can be shipped, you should choose the smaller one if you want to cut costs.
Location and Distance
The accessibility of your location is also a determinant. Areas that are easily accessible and are used regularly by car shipping companies cost less than less accessible areas. Therefore, you may change your pick-up and delivery points to more accessible areas if you are in a remote location and are looking to cut down shipping costs.
The overall distance to be covered while shipping your car also affects how much shipping your car will cost. As expected, the longer the distance covered, the higher the shipping costs.

Amtrak’s Desert Wind stopped functioning in 1997. Since then, Las Vegas has had no passenger train service. Amtrak’s California Zephyr train uses the Union Pacific’s original transcontinental railroad line daily from Chicago to Emeryville, California, serving Elko, Winnemucca, and Reno.
Additionally, Amtrak Thruway Motorcoaches provide connecting service from Las Vegas to trains at Needles, California, Los Angeles, and Bakersfield, California. They also connect Stateline, Nevada, to Sacramento, California. The Union Pacific Railroad has some tracks North and South of the state.
A 6.4 km monorail system provides public transportation in Las Vegas. It services several casino properties and the Las Vegas Convention Center east of the Las Vegas Strip. Several hotels also run their monorail lines between themselves.
Interstate 15- it runs through the southern tip of the state, serving Las Vegas and other areas.
I-215 and spur route I-515 also serve the Las Vegas metropolitan area.
I-80- runs through the northern part of Nevada and loosely follows the path of the Humboldt River from Utah in the East and the Truckee River westward through Reno into California. It also has a spur route, I-580.
US 6, US 50, US 93, US 95, and US 395 are the U.S highways that connect Nevada. Nevada also has 189 state routes.
Most of Nevada’s counties have their system of county routes, even though the ones in rural areas are not signed or paved. Nevada is one of a few states in the United States without a continuous interstate highway connecting two of its primary population centers. The road linking Las Vegas and Reno is not a continuous one, instead, it is a combination of several different Interstate and U.S. highways. However, the proposed Interstate 11 may be the remedy for this.
Nevada is a large and dry state with flat desert basins and high mountain ranges. The state was initially established on the mining industry. Today, the tourist and ranching industries have since become Nevada’s most significant income source.
Freight shipping out of this area is the cheapest option for Nevada freight. Rail shipping is also an affordable option in some parts of the state.

My agent was Doug and he was professional, courteous, and as truthful as he could be. He kept me informed every step of the way and was very cooperative. As our circumstances change, I made him aware and he changed things up as we were going. I was shipping my deceased husband's car to our daughter. Things had to line up before I could ship that car and I explained that to Doug at the outset. He worked with me.
I live in a rural area with narrow streets. He said, “I'm gonna put the car up for some driver with the explanation of the circumstances. We will make that driver aware. And we'll go from there.” Somebody accepted the car within 24 hours and I was totally shocked. Doug explained everything to the driver and the driver said he could handle it. When I made contact with the driver and I re-explained to him, he said, “I committed to picking this car up so that you would not have to walk, you would not have to meet me anywhere. You wouldn't have to leave your home. This car is literally going door to door.”
The morning that he was coming to pick up the car, the driver called me and notified me that he was in the area. I knew exactly where he was. I again said to him, “Maybe you should just stop on the larger street or the wider street, and give me a call. And then reassess whether or not you can get down into my narrow road to pick up the car.” I heard that driver before I saw him. He got down out of his big truck and said he couldn't turn around. But I was told not to worry as this was the commitment he made. We looked over the car and he took pictures of my vehicle. He loaded the 2006 Sonata on the back of his truck and it was ready to go.
He gave me an approximate delivery date to my daughter. But his plan changed. The driver did not call to tell me but that was perfectly all right. My daughter was looking forward to the weekend and when she reached him, he told her he would have the car there on Monday morning, which he did. I just wished that I had known it wasn't going to get there then I wouldn't have been so anxious that Saturday. But he didn't know. Other than that, the driver delivered and the car was in excellent condition when my daughter got it. The gentleman backed his big, old, long truck out of this narrow street. I was impressed because nobody else did. I am grateful to Ship A Car.

Easy and efficient. Finding a driver was a little difficult given my location but Stephen did it! The driver, Pavel, texted me with the estimated time of pick-up which was exact. He told me what day my car would arrive and again, gave me an accurate time of delivery. All went smoothly. I would definitely recommend this company.

Really excellent service. Despite contacting them last minute on a Saturday afternoon, I was still able to have the car towed the next Monday morning. I highly recommend them. Thank you for the good service!

I understood that there were substantial ice & snow storms throughout the Midwest so I will give some leeway to the pick-up & dropoff dates (completed within 24 hrs of ETA). Meredith my booking agent was courteous & thorough and I appreciated her follow up. My transport driver Victor was courteous & professional as well. Will use Ship a Car again.

I recently relocated and I needed to move my car, so I shopped around. I called around getting quotes, it was a lengthy process; I called ship a car and I was connected to Justin, he was so curtious and informative on the process of shipping a car. He explained to me in detail about the payment process and who to contact in case there was an emergency while my car was being transported. The driver he set up for me was very pleasant, they worked with me and made sure I was home before they delivered my car. If i ever need to ship a car again I will call Justin just to make my life easier!

Everything worked out perfectly with Ship A Car. We were helped by Christie, and she was perfect. My daughter was calling her every couple of days to see what the status was. Initially, we got started on a rocky road, but that was our fault because we had a vendor that we thought was going to help, and he was scamming. So, we were very glad when we got in touch with Christie. She talked us through what would happen and when it would happen. In the very end, she fulfilled those dates that she said. The gentleman who was driving was cordial and helpful. He had to park someplace else because our street is small. The car got here safely. I was really satisfied.

I'm giving SAC a 1 Star due to the transporter they assigned me (guilty by association).
SAC (itself) were professional and courteous. Unfortunately, if they assign "Dones Auto Transport Inc:" to you, MAKE SURE you refuse them! The driver was nice enough but didn't speak english - per the dispatcher. And the dispatcher was anything but professional. I'm all for supporting small businesses but this husband/wife team were the absolute worse in professionalism and communication! This is why they probably don't have a profile under Google or Yelp!
I was promised 5 star service but received the most bootlegged service ever experienced!
Wednesday, March 23:
Received a call from the dispatcher "the driver (Javier) is confirmed to pick up my car on Friday (March 25) & would call me 3 hours out."
Friday, March 25
Driver was a no call/no show. Attempted to make contact via text and cell to no avail. Dispatcher finally calls back late afternoon - Driver stuck at DMV all morning renewing his registration & would pick up the car Saturday morning by approximately 8am.
Saturday, March 24:
9 am, No word from driver/dispatcher. Several calls/texts made & at 12.30 pm, dispatcher text's back stating her son had the phone & she didn't realize I called. Almost an hour later I'm told the driver caught a flat but was approximately 45 miles away. 3pm, driver arrives & picks up the car.
Tuesday, March 29
5 pm, dispatcher texts me - driver needs to drop off "tonight" as another driver injured his finger. I asked for a time, she provided a two hour window which I refused due to the inconsistent communication & lack of confidence. She then became obnoxious and even sent me a photo of the injury (see attached - NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH) & demanded I make arrangements for a late drop off. After A LOT of back and forth, she agreed to a Wednesday morning drop off.
Wednesday, March 30
The driver makes contact stating he was onsite & unloaded the car only to find out he was at the wrong location. It took him another hour to get to the right destination. Two hours later, I finally got my car.
I know as a broker, there is little SAC can do but this needed to be said!

I have used Ship A Car two times in the last three years to ship our cars half way across the US each time. Tom and Bob were fantastic to work with and I was so thankful for their regular communication and follow up to make sure everything was taken care of to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Ship A Car, Inc.
