I didn't "ship" my car (an Acura at the time), but when I moved to California  
it was placed inside the moving van with my contents of my house.  I chose this 
method over putting the car on a carrier because it would be protected from the 
elements.  I am pleased to say it arrived safe and sound.  All they ask is that 
you have antifreeze in the radiator (the van is not climate controlled) and 
less 
than a quarter tank of gas (to avoid nasty explosions).  If you do decide to 
ship a car that way, make sure they do not put any of those moving pads on it.  
All the vibrating can scratch up the paint.

Another thing, depending on the year of the car, you may have to pay an 
environmental impact fee of $300 to register here in California.

     While I understand that this is not how it's usually done, I'm 
     wondering if anyone would know anything about shipping a car from 
     Boston to the Bay Area. (CA.)
     
     Thanks,
