We had one car shipped with the furniture (United Van Lines), this was quite expensive, around $1300 as I recall, the least expensive way we found was the autotrain, vehicle is around $200 to $300, your fare is around the same if you do not need a bed. Only down side is you have to drive to Lorton, VA. If you decide to try this do NOT use 95, go out to Harrisburg, PA, take 15 south and if a remember 270 to 95 for around 10 miles to Lorton. We also brought one car down towed behind a U-Haul truck, and would not do that again, even with three drivers this was a miserable trip.
Hopes this helps.
