Louisville Car Shipping

Known as the Gateway to the South, Louisville is the largest city in Kentucky. Named after King Louis XVI of France, Louisville has a population of around 770,000 and shares borders with Jefferson County.

Car shipping to Louisville is a popular choice for those who are moving to the area as it is much easier than driving your car across the country.

Sitting on what is now the Indiana border, Louisville was founded in 1778 by George Rogers Clark and was a fort town. By the early 19th century, the town had developed a few shops and homes, and the city grew due, in part, to riverboats needing to unload before reaching the falls downstream.

It became a become a major shipping port and survived the Civil War unscathed despite being a stronghold for Union. In 1875, Louisville held the first Kentucky Derby but was severely damaged 15 years later by a tornado.

In the 1960s and 70s, many people started to leave the city (as was becoming common in other cities across the nation), but urban renewal projects began, and the city continues to thrive to this day.

Louisville is also known as the hometown of boxer Muhammad Ali, the headquarters of KFC, and for the University of Louisville. Students moving to the area can get around the city in their own vehicle if they choose the best car shipping company to provide door to door transport.

Louisville has a humid continental climate, as do many cities in the area, and has four distinct seasons. In summer, high temperatures average at around 90 degrees, and overnight the lows will drop to the mid-60s.

In winter, the high temperatures are in the mid-40s and lows can drop to below freezing, with snowfall a common sight.
