How is the cost of my Auto Transport Service calculated?
The primary factor in determining the cost of car shipping is the total distance. Typically, longer distances result in higher prices overall, although there may be a reduced cost per mile. Our car shipping calculator ensures that you receive the most competitive quote for any vehicle shipment. It is worth noting that international car shipping prices may vary from those of ground vehicle transport.
Another key factor in calculating the cost of auto transport is the time it takes to access the load. Depending on the size, type, and location of your vehicle, your car may take some extra effort or special equipment to load onto our carrier.
Seasonal variations directly impact auto transport costs. During peak moving seasons, such as summer and early fall, demand for the services tends to be higher, leading to higher prices. Alternatively, during off-peak seasons like winter, you might find discounted rates, although adverse weather effects like snow can increase prices. It is important to keep these factors in mind when planning your car shipment and balance your needs between cost-effectiveness and timing.
The size and weight of your vehicle also significantly influence the cost of auto transport services. Larger and heavier vehicles require more space on the carrier and consume more fuel during transportation, thus increasing the overall shipping cost. If you are shipping a compact car, it will generally be cheaper compared to a large SUV or a truck. Our sophisticated auto transport calculator factors in these variables to provide you with an accurate and competitive quote for your specific vehicle shipping needs.
