Black Car Service provides long distance car service from St. Louis to cities across the Midwest, with one professional chauffeur door to door, an exact price shown before you pay, and a late model luxury SUV.

St. Louis to Chicago Car Service
- Distance
- About 300 miles
- Drive time
- 4.5 hours
- Route
- I-55 north
Chicago sits roughly 300 miles north of St. Louis, about four and a half hours up I-55 in clear traffic. Black Car Service drives the route door to door so you skip the terminal entirely: no security line, no delayed gate, no scramble for a ride once you land. Many riders book this leg to connect with O'Hare or Midway for an onward flight, while others go straight to a downtown hotel, the Loop, or a meeting in the suburbs. In a full size SUV with a professional chauffeur, the drive turns into productive time for calls and email instead of a wasted half day. We plan your departure window, route, and any return leg in advance, and the booking page shows the full price before you pay.

- Distance
- About 250 miles
- Drive time
- 3.5 hours
- Route
- I-70 west
Kansas City is about 250 miles west on I-70, roughly three and a half hours of open interstate across the middle of Missouri. Black Car Service drives the corridor for executives heading to a meeting on the Country Club Plaza or downtown, families visiting relatives, and travelers who would rather ride than fight the airport for a short hop. You leave on your own schedule, not the airline's, and arrive rested at the exact address you need. The same chauffeur stays with you the full way, with room for luggage and a quiet cabin for work or rest. Every Kansas City run is priced on screen before you book, one way or round trip.

- Distance
- About 125 miles
- Drive time
- 2 hours
- Route
- I-70 west
Columbia sits about 125 miles west on I-70, a straightforward two hour drive. Black Car Service runs this route constantly for the University of Missouri: parents bringing students up for move in, families in town for a Mizzou game weekend, and alumni returning for events on campus. Just as often the trip is a medical one, with riders traveling to MU Health Care and the University Hospital for appointments and procedures. For a medical visit we can drive you out, wait through the appointment, and bring you home the same day in one comfortable vehicle, which matters when you should not be behind the wheel afterward. Every Columbia trip is priced on screen before you book.

- Distance
- About 95 miles
- Drive time
- 1.5 hours
- Route
- I-55 north
Springfield, the Illinois state capital, is about 95 miles north up I-55, roughly a ninety minute drive. Black Car Service handles this run for business travelers with meetings near the Capitol complex, attorneys and lobbyists with state business, and visitors heading to the historic sites downtown. A reserved chauffeur means you arrive composed and on time, walk straight into the meeting, and have a car waiting when it ends rather than chasing a ride in an unfamiliar city. For a same day trip we hold the vehicle and chauffeur for the return, so one price covers the entire day. Tell us your meeting time and we plan backward from it.

- Distance
- About 130 miles
- Drive time
- 2 hours
- Route
- I-44 southwest
Fort Leonard Wood is about 130 miles southwest down I-44, roughly two hours from St. Louis. Black Car Service drives families to the Army post for basic training graduations, family visits, and PCS and TDY moves, and we carry soldiers and their luggage in the other direction just as often. Graduation weekends are the busiest, when parents and grandparents fly into Lambert and need a reliable run straight to the gate in time for the ceremony. We track your arrival window and the graduation schedule so nobody misses the moment, and a full size SUV gives everyone room for bags and gear. Reserve early for graduation dates, since those weekends fill fast. Every trip is priced on screen before you book, with no quote request.

- Distance
- About 130 miles
- Drive time
- 2 hours
- Route
- I-70 and US-54
Jefferson City, Missouri's capital, is about 130 miles west, roughly two hours from St. Louis. Black Car Service drives this route for legislative business: lobbyists and advocates with hearings at the Capitol, executives meeting with state agencies, and association staff in town during session. A reserved chauffeur lets you review testimony or take calls on the way out and walk into the building prepared. During session the schedule can shift without warning, so we hold the vehicle and chauffeur on standby for the day when you need that flexibility, all under one price. Tell us your first appointment and we have you parked outside the Capitol with time to spare.

- Distance
- 115 to 150 miles
- Drive time
- 2 to 2.5 hours
- Route
- I-55 south
Cape Girardeau sits about 115 miles south on I-55, and Carbondale is roughly 150 miles southeast across the river in Illinois. Black Car Service serves both for the universities that anchor them: Southeast Missouri State in Cape Girardeau and Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, with steady demand from parents, students, and visitors during move in, parents weekend, and commencement. The same routes carry medical travelers heading to regional hospitals and specialists, where a round trip with a waiting chauffeur removes the stress of driving home after a procedure. One private vehicle, one chauffeur, door to door, with the price shown before you book.

- Distance
- 110 to 170 miles
- Drive time
- 2 to 3 hours
- Route
- I-44 southwest
Rolla is about 110 miles southwest down I-44, and the Lake of the Ozarks sits roughly 170 miles out depending on which arm of the lake you are headed to. Black Car Service drives the Rolla route for Missouri University of Science and Technology, carrying students and families for move in, recruiting visits, and graduation. The Lake run is a resort trip, ideal for a group heading to a weekend at the water who would rather arrive relaxed than split into several cars and navigate the winding roads themselves. With a full size SUV everyone rides together with their bags, and the chauffeur handles the drive both ways. Each trip is priced on screen before you book.
See Your Rolla or Lake PriceWhy Choose a Private Car for Long Distance Travel
A private car removes everything that makes long distance travel a chore. There is no surge pricing, because your price is shown and locked before you pay. One vetted, professional chauffeur stays with you the entire way, so the person who picks you up is the same person who delivers you, with no handoffs and no strangers. The trip is door to door from your address to your destination, which means no airport security, no connections, and no rental counter waiting at the other end.
Inside the cabin you can actually use the time. Take calls, answer email, prepare for a meeting, or simply rest while someone else handles the road. The price is fixed and known up front, so there are no surprises when the trip is done. And a full size SUV gives you real room for luggage, equipment, and gear, the kind of space an airline charges for and a rideshare rarely has. For trips of a few hundred miles, this is simply the better way to go.
See Your PriceHow Long Distance Pricing Works
Choose Long Distance on the booking page and enter your pickup, drop-off, date, and number of passengers. Each vehicle then shows its price for your exact route. Because the chauffeur drives back to St. Louis after dropping you off, the price covers the drive both ways, plus mileage and the chauffeur's gratuity.
You see every line of the price before you pay, and you pay by card on the same page. Your confirmation arrives by email right away, with nothing added later. No meters, no surge, no surprise charges at the end of the road. Need the chauffeur to wait and bring you home the same day? Call us and we will plan it with you.

These are the questions riders ask most before booking a long distance trip. If yours is not here, call us and a real person will answer it.
Yes. Black Car Service drives long distance from St. Louis to cities across Missouri and Illinois and beyond, including Chicago, Kansas City, Columbia, Springfield, Jefferson City, Fort Leonard Wood, Cape Girardeau, Carbondale, Rolla, and the Lake of the Ozarks. You ride door to door in one private vehicle with a single chauffeur the entire way. Trips are priced and booked online instantly, Chicago included.
The price depends on the vehicle you choose and the drive time there and back, since the chauffeur returns to St. Louis after dropping you off. Enter your pickup and drop-off on the booking page and the full itemized price, gratuity included, appears before you pay. The number you see is the number you pay.
Yes. Many long distance riders book a round trip where the same chauffeur drives them out, waits at the destination, and drives them home the same day. This is common for medical appointments, court dates, a single meeting, or a campus visit. Tell us how long you expect to be there and we build the wait time into one flat quote for the whole day.
For regional trips under a few hundred miles, a private car often makes more sense than flying once you add up parking, bag fees, security time, and a rental on the other end. A short flight to Columbia or Springfield rarely exists at all, and a connection to a small city eats the whole day. Black Car Service drives you door to door on your schedule with no transfers, which is why many riders choose the road for trips like these.
Yes. Black Car Service regularly drives families to Fort Leonard Wood for basic training graduations, PCS and TDY moves, and visits to soldiers at the post. We track graduation dates and arrival windows so families land at the gate on time, and we handle the roughly 130 mile run down I-44 in one comfortable vehicle with room for luggage and gear.
Booking a few days ahead is ideal for a long distance trip, since it guarantees a vehicle and chauffeur are staged for your exact departure window. We accommodate shorter notice when the schedule allows, and graduation weekends or peak travel dates fill quickly, so earlier is always safer. Book as soon as you know your route and date to lock in your vehicle and chauffeur.
