Car Shipping to Port Royal
What a car carrier actually encounters at Port Royal: how the entry works, whether a full-size truck can reach the door, and where deliveries realistically happen in season.

Getting a carrier in — or deciding not to
There is no gate here, which removes one obstacle — but street geometry and canopy still decide how close a carrier can get.
- Gordon Drive and the finger streets off it are narrow, heavily canopied and lined with mature banyan and royal palms — a 75-80 ft stinger or 10-car carrier rarely turns around cleanly.
- Most Port Royal deliveries are staged closer to Old Naples and the last mile is driven, either by the driver or by you meeting the truck.
- Landscape crews work these streets most weekday mornings in season; mid-morning to early afternoon is usually the calmest window.
- Enclosed transport is common here, and a smaller enclosed rig (2-3 car) can often get much closer to the door than an open ten-car.
Timing a Port Royal delivery or pickup
Arriving for the winter
Southbound deliveries into Old Naples / Gordon Drive cluster from October through mid-December, with the pre-Thanksgiving stretch the tightest. If nobody will be at the residence when the truck arrives, arrange an authorized receiver — a neighbor, property manager or home-watch service — and tell the dispatcher who it is by name.
Traffic on Gordon and the surrounding arterials changes materially between December and April. A driver who could make three Naples stops in a morning in September makes two in February.
Leaving in the spring
April is the heaviest northbound month, and communities like Port Royal see repeated carrier visits in the same weeks. Book in February, offer a three-day window, and start the car about a week before pickup so a flat battery doesn't turn a running vehicle into an inoperable one.
If your household is shipping two vehicles, putting them on one load is easier for everyone — one gate authorization, one arrival, one inspection.
