Car shipping to Marathon.
Mile Marker 50, the middle of the chain, and the place our truck sleeps. Nowhere on the road is quicker for us to reach.
This is our home ground
Marathon is where we are based, which changes what we can promise here. Everywhere else on the chain we are driving to you. In Marathon we are already here, so same-day pickup is realistic in a way it simply is not for a company coming down from the mainland.
Our yard is opening on the Overseas Highway this month. The move puts us mid-island, with Key West a straight run south and Key Largo a straight run north.
“Marathon” covers a lot of road
The city is not one island. It runs across Key Vaca, Boot Key, Fat Deer Key, Crawl Key, Long Point and Grassy Key, stretching from the north end of the Seven Mile Bridge up past Mile Marker 60. That is more than ten miles of road with the same name on it.
So give us the mile marker along with the address if you know it, and tell us bayside or oceanside. It is the difference between finding you first time and calling you from the wrong end of town.
Key Colony Beach is its own city sitting just off Marathon around MM 53. We serve it the same way; just say so when you book, because the causeway is easy to drive past.
Boats, and the cars that wait for them
Boot Key Harbor is one of the busiest mooring fields in Florida, and a lot of what we move in Marathon belongs to people who are about to be on the water for a season, or have just come off it. Shipping the car out and back beats leaving it in a lot for six months, and it is usually cheaper than people assume.
Same goes for the airport at MM 52. If you are flying in and want the car waiting, tell us the arrival date and we will work backwards from it.

Common questions
Are you actually based in Marathon?
Yes. Our home base is on the Overseas Highway here, mid-chain. That is the reason turnaround in Marathon is the fastest anywhere on the road.
Can you pick up the same day?
Often, in Marathon specifically, because we are not driving down to reach you. Ask and we will tell you honestly where the truck is.
Do you cover Key Colony Beach and Grassy Key?
Yes, and Boot Key, Fat Deer, Crawl Key and Long Point. If it carries a Marathon address or sits between roughly MM 47 and MM 60, it is the same run for us.
Can you deliver to a marina instead of a house?
Routine here. Give us the marina name and a contact at the dock office and we will coordinate with them directly.
