6-Vehicle Open Carrier Transport from Oklahoma City to Knoxville

A1 Auto Transport completed a multi-vehicle shipment from Oklahoma City, OK to Knoxville, TN using a Ford F-650 open carrier. The load included 6 vehicles — a mix of compact sedans, a coupe, and a white cargo van — hauled over 855 miles in 3–4 days.

Challenge

This job involved transporting mixed vehicle types including low-clearance sports cars and a tall cargo van, requiring careful loading to avoid clearance issues on the upper deck. Pickup was at a busy auto auction site with time constraints and strict loading windows.

Solution

A1’s experienced crew pre-planned loading order to optimize deck space and axle weight balance. We used hydraulic ramps to safely load the sports coupe beneath taller vehicles and ensured tight strapping across all points.
The route was GPS-tracked, and the shipment arrived a half-day early in Knoxville — without a single adjustment needed.
