Vehicles leaving the IAA Buffalo yard reach I-90 in about 7 miles. Those are the corridors a car hauler actually runs to reach this gate, and the yard sits north of Buffalo.
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 Buffalo from major cities?
Driving distances from this yard: Buffalo 7 mi (13 min), Rochester 77 mi (1 hr 38 min), Syracuse 152 mi (3 hr 5 min), Cleveland 197 mi (3 hr 58 min). Larger metros: Pittsburgh 222 mi (4 hr 25 min), Detroit 254 mi (5 hr 15 min), Toledo 310 mi (6 hr 7 min). 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.
