The route
Philadelphia cars ride I-95 south the whole way. Lehigh Valley and Harrisburg pickups come down I-78 and I-81 or across to I-95, and Pittsburgh loads usually take I-79 and I-77 through West Virginia and Charlotte, then cut over to I-95 or I-75. Philadelphia to Orlando is 1,019 miles.
Pickups in Philadelphia, its suburbs and the Lehigh Valley are scheduled quickly. Rural central Pennsylvania and the Northern Tier can take an extra day or two to match with a truck, and towns well off the interstates add about $75.
When to book
Southbound demand peaks from October through January: Philadelphia to Orlando is about $1,485 in November and $1,355 in April. Winter storms in the mountains can delay pickups in central and western Pennsylvania by a day.
Good to know
In Philadelphia's rowhouse neighborhoods, narrow one-way streets and parked cars on both sides keep full-size carriers off most blocks. Expect to meet the driver on a nearby avenue or in a lot; your dispatcher sets the spot before pickup day.
