Ordered car

Anyone know how long it takes for the car to get to the dealership once it arrives at port? Port is in Maryland and the dealership is in NJ

Ask the dealer for a screen shot of the "status" this will give you the carrier info (probably Delta Automotive Services) with that you can call the dispatcher and get a real timeline.

Good luck

Mine took 2 days; but they have different times in today's COVID world I'm sure.

That is odd as BMW has a VDC at the port in NJ. Perhaps COVID-19 and minimal cars for the area on the ship is sending everything to the Baltimore VDC.

I've done 4 ED's and thus tracked my cars closely. Sometimes they breezed through the port and sometimes sat there for a week or more. Once they get on a truck though it's just a few days. Customs/the port are the rate limiting step.
