Located near Lake Michigan in the western portion of Michigan, Grand Rapids is one of the largest cities in the state. One of the unique aspects of Grand Rapids when auto transport services are concerned are that there are few local guidelines and regulations prohibiting large vehicles from traveling within the city limits. This means that auto shipping services like Budget Auto Shipping have little difficulty providing door to door services for customers shipping their vehicles to or from the city of Grand Rapids. Grand Rapids is located North of another major Michigan city – Kalamazoo and West of the state capital – Lansing. Due to its location, Grand Rapids is not frequently traveled through by auto shipping companies that are delivering a vehicle to another part of the state.
The major point of access for auto transport companies arriving in Grand Rapids from the South is Highway 131 from Kalamazoo or Interstate 196 from Chicago. From Lansing and Detroit to the East, Interstate 96 is a quick way to access the city limits. Finally, Highways 46 and 131 connect Grand Rapids to cities in the North like Big Rapid and Cadillac, although these shipments are quite rare.
