Why Ship from This Location with AutoMove?
We coordinate directly with IAA Fontana staff to facilitate a smooth vehicle release and pickup process. After you've won your bid and completed payment through IAA, simply provide us with your buyer information and lot details. Our assigned carrier will arrive during facility operating hours, complete the necessary inspection and release documentation, and load your vehicle for transport. We handle both running and non-running vehicles, with winch-loading capability available for inoperable units.
The Fontana area offers favorable logistics for outbound vehicle transport, with access to major West Coast highway corridors. Regional deliveries within California and neighboring states generally arrive within 1–4 days, while cross-country shipments typically take 5–9 days. We provide transparent transit estimates up front and keep you informed of any schedule changes throughout the journey.
The assigned carrier's cargo insurance covers every AutoMove shipment, protecting your vehicle from the IAA yard to your delivery address. We offer both open and enclosed transport options, and our door-to-door service means you won't need to arrange drop-off or pickup at a terminal. Track your shipment online and reach our team anytime with questions.
Vehicles leaving the IAA Fontana yard load a short hop from I-10, with I-15 roughly 3 miles out and I-5 roughly 30 miles out. Those are the corridors a car hauler actually runs to reach this gate, and the yard sits northwest of Riverside.
Booking a pickup here
Carriers can only load while the gate is open, so a truck arriving after closing waits until the next business day — that is why we book a pickup window rather than just a date. If you have won vehicles at more than one yard in this area, say so on the quote: putting them on a single carrier is normally cheaper than booking separate pickups.
How far is IAA Fontana from major cities?
Driving distances from this yard: Fontana 5 mi (9 min), Rancho Cucamonga 8 mi (14 min), Jurupa Valley 9 mi (16 min), Ontario 9 mi (16 min). Larger metros: San Diego 110 mi (2 hr 11 min), Chula Vista 118 mi (2 hr 23 min), Bakersfield 154 mi (3 hr). Mileage is measured on the road network, not in a straight line, and the times shown are typical car drive times. A loaded carrier runs slower and works to a pickup window, so plan on 1-2 days of transit to those metros once a truck is dispatched.
