Car Transport Services to Greater Boston
Greater Boston is a Combined Statistical Area located primarily in the state of Massachusetts but that also extends into the nearby states of Rhode Island and New Hampshire. Greater Boston includes both the Boston Metropolitan Statistical Area, a core statistical component of Massachusetts, while the CSA includes all the areas in Rhode Island and New Hampshire. Greater Boston is home to over eight million residents, making it the sixth-largest by population in the United States and perhaps the most popular car transport location in the entire state of Massachusetts. Greater Boston is well-known for its dedication to history, as it was a central player in many events that shaped the United States including the American Revolution, War of 1812, and the American Civil War.
As one of the largest metropolitan regions in the entire United States, it’s not surprising that Greater Boston is a major car transport location as well as near the top of the list for most other things. As far as population goes it is not going to rival New York or Los Angeles, but it does still see plenty of car transport traffic and for that you should be grateful as it makes things much easier for carriers and therefore cheaper to most of the major cities in Greater Boston. The cities of Worcester, Lowell, Providence in Rhode Island and Manchester in New Hampshire are all home to populations of over 100,000 residents and are the largest in the region, which typically make them the cheapest and fastest to ship to and from.
It really helps that Boston has a fairly extensive infrastructure that car transport carriers can use to get around and service the vast number of customers that are in the Boston area. The two main interstates are I-90, which runs east-west, and I-95, which runs north-south. A third, I-93, runs north-south as well, with I-93 oddly servicing the eastern downtown core of Boston while I-95 – typically regarded as the busiest interstate highway in the country – services the more suburban and smaller areas of the western Boston region. While this does not make much of a difference in terms of your car shipping prices, it can have an impact on your car transport timetables, notably pickup windows and transit times.
