How Much Does Car Shipping Cost?

What factors are effects on the car transportation price?

The first and probably the most important thing you should understand when shipping a vehicle is that all the prices you receive from the transportation companies are only estimated rates since a broker depends on a carrier and the transportation business is constantly changing. For example, the carrier that was shipping vehicles for a lower rate may be already full or change his route and go another direction.

Usually the cost for moving the vehicle depends on the next factors: size & weight of the vehicle, the transport type, shipping distance &route, shipping date & season, the car condition.

Size & weight of the vehicle Arrow

The longer or/and heavier a vehicle is the more it will cost you to get it transported. For example, if you are shipping a regular SUV (like Toyota RAV4) the price will be lower than for shipping modified or bigger SUV (like uplifted Chevrolet Tahoe).

The transport type Arrow
Factors img

The type of the trailer also affects the price a lot. Enclosed transportation sometimes costs 50% more than an open one, but it is worth that if you are shipping classic, vintage, exotic or show vehicle and it cannot be exposed to any weather conditions.

Shipping distance & route Arrow
Factors img

It’s easy to understand that the longer your route is the higher price will be. But some routes are also more popular than others. For example the route Miami, FL to Atlanta, GA is very popular and it costs only around $400 to get a sedan shipped. But the route Pensacola, FL to Atlanta, GA is not popular among drivers, so your vehicle will be the only one going this way.

Shipping date and season Arrow
Factors img

Sometimes season changes the price drastically. For example, in winter the cost for moving vehicles to/from northern states is much higher than usual. And of course, the price always goes up during holidays. Your flexibility with the shipping dates is also very important. . If you want to get the vehicle shipped as soon as possible, you don’t have time to choose the cheapest option.

The car condition Arrow
Factors img

If your vehicle is not running car transport service will cost additional $100-$150 as we need to find a driver with a winch on a trailer and their rate is usually higher.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my vehicle insured during transportation? What is the insurance coverage policy?Arrow

Our company is bonded and licensed and we work only with insured carriers. The insurance coverage may vary from $100 000 to $250 000 per one vehicle.

When the driver arrives at your pick-up location, he will examine the vehicle for any pre- existing damages and if there is any, he will note it down in the Bill of Lading/Condition Report. You will have to check if everything is correct and sign it. This ensures that customers don’t try to make damage claims for pre-existing issues. In case there’s no one at pick up or if the car is going from an auction, shop or a private seller, the driver will also take photos of the car and send them to you as a confirmation of the Bill of Lading..

Once the vehicle is delivered to you, you should inspect the car for any new damages and if anything, you should write it down in the Bill of Lading and let us know about that. While you make 1-2 estimates in a local workshop, we will prepare and [provide you with the necessary paperwork to help you submit a claim to the carrier’s insurance company and they will send you a check within a week or two.

Can I ship my personal items inside the vehicle?Arrow

Yes, you are allowed to put up to 100 lbs in the truck or in the back seat of your vehicle but it should be below window level. If you want to ship more items, we can try to negotiate that with the driver but most likely it will cost extra $100 since the driver may receive a ticket for overweight at the weight station.

How does the payment work?Arrow

Unlike other broker or carrier company, our company does NOT charge anything at the time of booking. Yes, that’s totally correct: you can book your shipment for free. The payment itself is divided into 2 parts: the partial deposit is charged to the credit card AFTER the vehicle is picked up and the remaining balance is paid at the delivery location to the driver with cash or any certified funds.

How long does it take to ship the vehicle?Arrow

It all depends on the distance the vehicle is going and if needed our company offers expedited delivery. Usually for the distance under 400 mi it takes only a day, for 400-800 mi – 2 days, for 800-1500 mi – 3-5 days, 1500-2400 -6-7 days, for 2500-3200 – 7-10 days.

Can you transport my vehicle if it’s not running?Arrow

We can transport both operable and inoperable vehicles. But for an inoperable vehicle, we will need to hire a driver with a winch on the trailer (unless there are forklifts at pick- up and delivery locations). Also note that the cost to for the transportation of inoperable vehicle will be higher and if it is going more than 1600 mi, it may take some time to find a trailer with a winch and negotiate with the driver the most reasonable price. If the battery is the only reason why your vehicle is not running we will ask the driver to jump start the car to load it on the trailer and ship it as operable one.
