About shipping cars to and from Louisiana
Whipshipper moves cars in and out of Louisiana every week. We pick up at your door and deliver to wherever your car is going, whether that is one town over or all the way across the country.
Louisiana runs I-10 between Houston and Mobile, so east to west supply is steady. New Orleans port freight and hurricane evacuation volume drive seasonal spikes. Pickups in flood prone areas may require a meet point on higher ground.
Popular lanes from Louisiana include Louisiana to Texas, Louisiana to California, Louisiana to Florida. We also handle inbound moves from those same regions every day.
Why ship with Whipshipper in Louisiana
Door to door service, live carrier GPS, and a $99 deposit that locks the rate.
Door to door pickup
We send a carrier to your address in Louisiana (or as close as the truck can legally park) and deliver to the same kind of address at the destination.
Live carrier GPS
Once your car is loaded you get a tracking link with the truck's live location, updated every minute. No more calling the driver for status.
$99 deposit locks the rate
Your quoted price is your final price. The $99 deposit holds the carrier on your dates. Balance due to the driver on delivery.
Open and enclosed options
Open transport is the budget standard. Enclosed transport adds full weather and road protection for classics, exotics, and high value cars.
Insured every mile
Every carrier on our load board carries cargo insurance. We verify it on every dispatch and provide proof of coverage at pickup.
Real humans on the phone
Call (800) 227-7472 and you get a real Whipshipper coordinator, not a call center. We work the load board on your behalf until your car is moving.

Open vs enclosed transport from Louisiana
Open is the budget standard. Enclosed adds full weather and road protection.
Open transport
- Cheapest option, 7 to 10 cars per trailer
- Used for 95 percent of all car shipments in the country
- Vehicle is exposed to weather and road debris
- Carrier supply is highest, so dispatch is fastest
- Best for daily drivers, dealer freight, and fleet moves
Enclosed transport
- Roughly 50 to 70 percent more than open
- 1 to 6 cars per trailer in a fully covered box
- Full protection from weather, road debris, and prying eyes
- Lower carrier supply, plan 3 to 7 extra days for dispatch
- Best for classics, exotics, EVs, and high value vehicles
