<p>thanks midwestparent, will PM ST2</p>
<p>There are about a million car shipping companies, but of course would recommend using one that someone has vouched for. I will post the one we’ve used when I get home. We will be using a different one this spring because the dealer who fixes our cars recommended the one he uses and it was cheaper than the other one. FYI it’s about $600-700 to ship a car from St. Louis to Boston. So if your kid can drive home all by himself/herself or can get a friend to help drive, and maybe stay with friends along the way, not cheaper. But if you are going to have to fly out and help your kid drive the car home and you’re going to have some hotels and meals to pay for along the way, then it might be no more expensive to ship. We ran the numbers, and for us it was a wash cost-wise to ship it vs. fly out and help drive it home, not to mention it saves miles on the vehicle. When we shipped it out they delivered it very close to the dorm so it wasn’t a problem for my S to pick it up.</p>
