2J's Auto Transport is the top-rated car shipping company in Wisconsin, offering the fastest and easiest way to ship your vehicle to or from Wisconsin.
Welcome to 2 J’s Auto Transport, one of the leading auto transport companies serving Wisconsin. Whether you’re relocating to Milwaukee, shipping a vehicle from Madison, or moving a car to or from Green Bay, we provide reliable, affordable, and fully insured auto transportation across the state and nationwide.
Wisconsin’s position in the upper Midwest gives it solid interstate connectivity for auto transport. I-94 connects Milwaukee to Madison and continues west to Minneapolis. I-90 runs east-west across southern Wisconsin. I-43 connects Milwaukee to Green Bay along the Lake Michigan shoreline. I-39 serves the central corridor through Wausau and Stevens Point. These major routes carry consistent carrier traffic, keeping pricing competitive for most Wisconsin shipments.
We specialize in open carrier shipping, enclosed auto transport, classic and luxury car shipping, motorcycle transport, heavy haul, and RV/fifth wheel transport. As a federally licensed auto transport broker (MC# 799000, USDOT# 02349019), we dispatch from a vetted network of FMCSA-compliant carriers, matching your shipment with the right truck, on the right route, at the right time.
If you’re shipping your car for the first time to or from Wisconsin, here’s a complete guide on how to transport a car to walk you through the process.
Wisconsin’s interstate network centers on Milwaukee, the state’s largest city and primary auto transport hub. I-94 is the backbone connecting Milwaukee southeast to Chicago (90 miles, heavy carrier traffic) and northwest through Madison to Minneapolis. I-90 provides an east-west route across southern Wisconsin connecting La Crosse to Rockford, IL. I-43 runs north from Milwaukee along the Lake Michigan coast to Green Bay, and I-39 serves the central corridor through Portage, Stevens Point, and Wausau.
Carrier availability is strongest in the Milwaukee–Madison–Chicago triangle, where I-94 carries some of the highest freight volume in the Midwest. Northern Wisconsin and the Northwoods region (Rhinelander, Eagle River, Minocqua) have lighter carrier traffic; allow 48–72 hours extra lead time for pickups in these areas.
Milwaukee metro (including Waukesha, Brookfield, West Allis, Wauwatosa, Racine, Kenosha) Highest volume in Wisconsin. Strong I-94 carrier traffic. Excellent access from suburban areas. Downtown Milwaukee pickups may need a nearby open lot.
Madison metro (including Middleton, Sun Prairie, Fitchburg, Verona) State capital and UW-Madison home. Strong carrier access via I-90/I-94. Seasonal demand spikes in May and August with student vehicle shipping.
Green Bay / Fox Valley (including Appleton, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac) Served by I-43 and US-41. Solid carrier access. Packers game weekends can affect local traffic.
Eau Claire / La Crosse Western Wisconsin, served by I-90 and I-94. Moderate carrier traffic. Slightly longer lead times than Milwaukee/Madison.
Northwoods (Wausau, Stevens Point, Rhinelander, Eagle River) Central and northern Wisconsin. Connected via I-39 and US-51. Fewer carriers, especially in winter. Allow 48–72 hours extra lead time. Carriers may request meeting point on I-39.
Wisconsin’s proximity to Chicago and the Midwest interstate network keeps pricing competitive. Typical ranges for open transport of a standard sedan:
Enclosed transport runs 30–40% higher. Pricing varies by vehicle size, season, and route demand.
Wisconsin’s climate and geography create a few transport-specific factors worth knowing:
Winter weather (November–March) is the single biggest factor affecting Wisconsin auto transport. Lake-effect snow off Lake Michigan can dump significant accumulation on the I-43 corridor and eastern counties with little warning. I-90 and I-94 through the central and western parts of the state also see regular snow and ice. Winter shipments should include 1–2 extra days of schedule flexibility, and road salt exposure is a consideration for classic or luxury vehicles enclosed transport is strongly recommended during winter months.
The Milwaukee–Chicago corridor (I-94, 90 miles) is one of the busiest freight lanes in the Midwest. This means excellent carrier availability and competitive pricing for Wisconsin shipments heading south to Chicago or connecting to East Coast and Southeast routes. Most national carriers pass through this corridor, making Milwaukee one of the best-connected cities for auto transport in the upper Midwest.
UW-Madison, Marquette, UW-Milwaukee, and other Wisconsin universities drive seasonal demand spikes in May and August. Madison especially sees heavy student vehicle shipping volume during semester transitions. Book 2–3 weeks ahead during these windows.
Northwoods and rural northern Wisconsin (north of Wausau) have limited carrier frequency, especially in winter when some secondary roads may be temporarily impassable. For these areas, carriers may request a meeting point on I-39 or US-51 rather than a direct door-to-door pickup.
Wisconsin does not require annual vehicle safety inspections or emissions testing. When importing a vehicle into WI, you have 48 hours to get it titled and registered at the DMV. Wisconsin charges a 5% use tax on vehicles purchased out of state.

EXCELLENT Based on 9 reviews Posted on Google Selly StuffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joyce was amazing to work with from start to finish . My daughter was moving alone from Las Vegas to Chicago and the dates were constantly fluctuating. Joyce was so patient with me , understanding and empathetic to our needs . She made us feel like family . We used Sherpa years ago , and her customer service and communication was way beyond Sherpas ( and they gave excellent service as well, but Joyce blew them out of the water ) The price was competitive with the other carriers , but it really was her personality and customer service that sealed the deal . I would highly recommend using 2 Js auto transport over any of the more popular auto transporters. I spoke to atleast 5 other carriers before choosing 2js transport ( they were highly recommended by my brother , he used in past to get a car from California to Florida ) and I’m so glad we decided to use them . It was seamless and again the open line of communication was exceptional ! I can’t say enough great things about the whole process other than I would pick them hands down over any other carrier !Posted on Google Brandon KeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great price compared to other quotes I received. Working with Joyce and Christina was great!Posted on Google Christina FurbushTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joyce and John are such a pleasure to work with. There are a lot of scams in this industry and thankfully this is a family owned company where they actually take care of you like you’re part of their own family. I would highly recommend using their services. Vehicle was picked up and delivered when they said it was, and it was delivered in perfect condition.Posted on Google king furbsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

This company is very professional and had great communication. I was a little nervous about transporting my vehicle for the first time but they stood behind everything they said they would and followed through from beginning to end. They were very fairly priced amongst competitors, readily available anytime I called or had questions and they were extremely helpful. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Much thanks to 2Js!Posted on Google Charles AllenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 2 Js Auto transport was very easy to work with great price on shipping our skid steer i would recommend them to anyone needing anything transportedPosted on Google Mi CoLaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

2 J’s Auto Transport is a federally licensed auto transport broker (MC# 799000). That means we don’t own the trucks or employ the drivers instead, we dispatch from a vetted network of independent carriers across the U.S. For Wisconsin shipments, this flexibility matters: we can match your vehicle with a carrier already running the I-94 corridor from Chicago, find one experienced with winter driving in the Northwoods, or source an enclosed carrier to protect against road salt during Wisconsin’s harsh winters. The result is better coverage, better pricing, and reliable service from Kenosha to Superior.

I recently used 2 J’s Auto Transport to transport my car across the country, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! From the very beginning, the team was professional and responsive, answering all my questions and providing a detailed quote with no hidden fees. The pickup was smooth, and they kept me updated throughout the entire process. My car arrived in perfect condition and even ahead of schedule! The driver was friendly and handled everything with care. I highly recommend Joyce and John for anyone looking for reliable and efficient auto transport services. They truly exceeded my expectations!

I buy and sell construction equipment all over the US and always go to 2 J’s for long distance transport. They are able to find excellent rates on partial loads within a day or two. The drivers they send are always very professional and helpful. I’ve received quotes from other dispatchers and sometimes drivers offer their services directly, but they can rarely offer compete with 2 J’s pricing or timely service.

You guys were awesome. Picked up on time, dropped off on time as promised. I was returning customer. I had used their service a year and a half back. They were good at that time and this time too they were fantastic. I was fortunate to have got an enclosed truck for the price of open. Seems they had a truck passing on my dates and they gladly put me there. Thank you, John. Thank you, Joyce. I would highly recommend their services.
