3-Car Open Carrier Transport | Los Angeles to Houston

A recent multi-vehicle shipment from Los Angeles, California to Houston, Texas showcased A-1 Auto Transport’s ability to execute efficient, long-distance moves across the Southwest. Using a yellow open-carrier truck setup (as shown in the photo), our team managed the 1,548-mile route in just 3–4 days, ensuring timely delivery while navigating multiple metro hubs including Phoenix, Tucson, and Austin.

Challenge

Transporting multiple vehicles across three major states (California, Arizona, Texas) presents serious logistical challenges:

• Tight delivery timelines
• Multi-city pickups along I-10
• Traffic congestion in urban zones like Phoenix and Austin
• Ensuring secure vehicle positioning during overnight stops

Solution

We dispatched one of our long-haul open carriers specifically suited for multi-vehicle transport, driven by a veteran A1 driver. With real-time GPS tracking enabled, we kept the customer updated through every leg of the journey. Our dispatcher coordinated optimal fueling and rest stops, bypassing construction zones and peak traffic hours.

A-1’s proactive communication ensured that the customer remained informed at all times, from loading in Los Angeles to final delivery in Houston.
