Auto Transport To & From South Carolina (SC)


Some shippers may offer a discount if you mention you saw them on American Auto Shipping.com




South Carolina is one heck of a state; in fact, it's one of only three U.S. states to try and become its own nation...twice! There are lots of cool things to do and see, so if you're looking for auto transport to South Carolina, here are some things you may want to know:

South Carolina is named after Kind Charles II of England, and it's named Carolina because Carolus is Latin for Charles (hence the name). It was one of the thirteen original colonies to revolt against England during the American Revolution as well as being the first state to secede from the Union in 1861, thus sparking the beginnings of the Confederate States of America and the Civil War. It's bounded to the north by North Carolina, while Georgia lies to its south and west, and the Atlantic ocean lies on its east. Just some interesting facts should you be considering auto transport to the state.

It's made up of four distinct geographical regions: The Coastal Plain, which is basically lower South Carolina (also called Lowcountry), and is mostly flat; the Sand Hills region, which is thought to be the remnants of dunes from when the oceans were much higher (making the Sand Hills the coastline); the Piedmont region, which contains the state's capital, Columbia; and Upstate, which is highest in elevation (home to the Appalachian Mountains and the Sassafras Mountain). All these regions are unique and distinct, and you can see all the sites for yourself if you decide on auto transport there.

The state has generally a humid subtropical climate, but that's just fancy talk which means that it really doesn't get too hot (on average about 80 degrees during the summer) or too cold (60 overnight lows), and snowfall in the state averages only about an inch annually. If you're looking for auto transport because of the snow, you may want to consider another state (we here Maine has lots of snow). It's also prone to tropical cyclones and is constantly on alert during hurricane season, which lasts generally from June to November. It averages also about 50 days of thunderstorms a year, which can lead to some tornado activity; however, this is generally not a concern. Beautiful weather is just one of the many reasons you'll be glad you chose auto transport to get your car to South Carolina.

As stated earlier, South Carolina was the first state to secede from the Union on December 20, 1860 (although not technically finalized until early 1861). On April 12, 1861, Confederate batteries began to shell Fort Sumter, and thus the Civil War was born. This is much disputed, however, because many historians believe that the Civil War truly started with Bloody Kansas and the massacre of abolitionists by pro-slavery advocates. However, as the war progressed, Charleston was blockaded by the Union Navy and many people were forced out of the city. General William Tecumseh Sherman marched from Atlanta to Charleston in 1864-65, cutting a swath in the South and destroying the Confederate economy. While South Carolina troops participated in major battles of the war, no major battles were fought in the state itself. After the war was over, South Carolina was one of the last states to rejoin the Union, mostly due to the fact that they began the war in the first place.

South Carolina is full of history and wonderful things to do. If you're looking for auto transport to the state, look no further than American Auto Shipping.
