I imagine the cost to transport the car quite high. As oppose to the cost of
replacing the belt. It is a 13 year old car with 150,000 miles on it . how
much can it actually be worth ! I would consider replacing the belt and just
driving it.

Contact Joel Bachman at 800-323-5441 Ext 1303 and tell him Marc
Glasgow sent you.
He hasn't arranged any cars for me, but has moved motorcycles and
other heavy equipment.
He's a transport broker, meaning that he'll find you the best price
out of dozens or hundreds of firms that will move the car for you
(esp. if you think of the car as freight). You'll be walked through
some questions, including what type of insurance coverage you want/
need -- think about that in advance.
What to know:
There are four kinds of hauled transport in general - point to point,
point to terminal, terminal to point and terminal to terminal.
Terminal in this case is defined as the local trucking warehouse
where the long haul driver picks up and delivers. Point is defined as
whatever location you specify (such as your driveway).
Terminal to Terminal is much cheaper than involving points at all --
a point delivery charge can easily add $135 on each end for a
residential delivery & pick-up. That difference can mean serious $$
differences on the total bill. Thus, terminal-to-terminal is always a
serious savings benefit.
Other thoughts:
Consider having someone reliable in the upstate NY area to fix the
timing belt before it's moved. That way you can opt to go either way
-- freight or drive-away.
Cheers,
