First settled in the early 19th century, Norwood was originally known as “Northwood” due to the fact that it sits north of Cincinnati and during its early years was heavily wooded.

Auto Transport Tips to and from Norwood
Norwood was one of the first suburbs of Cincinnati, and its growth and development is tied closely to the growth and development of Cincinnati proper. What really helps when it comes to car transport services to or from Norwood is the fact that it sits so close to Cincinnati proper, as auto transport carriers prefer to run their routes into and out of major cities surrounded by major metropolitan areas. Metro areas tend to have the highest concentrations of potential customers, so by sticking close to big cities they are able to not only keep their trucks filled, but also find new customers quickly, to help reduce the amount of deadhead on their truck.
It also helps that Norwood sits only a few miles northeast of Cincinnati and sits along I-71, which runs north out of Cincinnati to Columbus and south out of the city towards Louisville, Kentucky. This helps car shippers get around much more easily, which ends up keeping prices lower and pickup or delivery windows a bit shorter. Carriers prefer to stick to major interstates when they can, and with I-71 connecting to several other east-west interstates, auto transport carriers have a much easier time getting around. This tends to lead to lower prices for their customers, as their overhead costs are lessened as well.
