According to Census ACS 2024, the largest inflows are from Virginia, 28,004 (margin of error 5,694); the District of Columbia, 16,780 (margin of error 3,634); and Pennsylvania, 12,638 (margin of error 2,389). The largest outflows go to Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Florida. The route list marks the Virginia and District pairs as truck lanes. Virginia to Maryland is the busiest inbound pair. Florida is a long truck lane, not a ship.
The Port of Baltimore is the vehicle port in this plan. The Maryland Port Administration says Baltimore handles more roll-on/roll-off farm and construction machinery, and more autos and light trucks, than any other U.S. port. Ro/Ro means the vehicle is driven on and off the ship. That is ocean cargo for new vehicles and equipment, not the open-trailer rate for a move from Virginia. Dundalk is one terminal the port describes for autos and Ro/Ro. A private car shipped coastwise is a different booking from a household move by truck. Do not mix the two prices.
Installations include Fort Meade, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Andrews Air Force Base, Naval Air Station Patuxent River, and Naval Support Activity Bethesda. The Naval Academy is both a campus and an installation, in Annapolis. Inside the contiguous United States, a privately owned vehicle is largely the member's responsibility to move. Johns Hopkins and the University of Maryland in College Park are the other large campuses. The Baltimore auction area is listed for cars bought at auction in that metro. Title and register within 60 days of moving. Missing that deadline disqualifies the credit for titling tax paid in another state. A Maryland safety inspection certificate is required first. VEIP emissions testing comes later, by notice about three months after registration. See the registration page.
