Ship Your Car To Or From Chicago IL
Known as “The Windy City,” Chicago is home to about 2.7 million people and is the third most populated city in the country. In the metro area, there are close to 10 million people and similar to New York and Los Angeles, this is an international location. It is situated in the heart of Cook County and is situated also on Lake Michigan, in the Great Lakes. Also known as “Chi-Town,” this is an important city for international commerce and trade and attracts millions of visitors annually. The attractions in Chicago are plentiful, from Navy Pier on Lake Michigan to the Magnificent Mile on Michigan Avenue for some of the best shopping in the world. There are museums galore and more than enough shops and dining establishments to keep visitors busy for weeks on end. Lake Michigan also offers a rather unusual offering of recreational activities in the city, which is unusual for a city the size of Chicago.

Using Chicago Vehicle Transport Companies
When you are looking to book Chicago car transport services, keep a few key tips in mind:
- Ask about tractor-trailer transport: This method might make it a bit longer to receive your vehicle, but in the end, it is one of the most affordable ways to transport your vehicle.
- Opt for open-air transport: If yours is a traditional vehicle and you don’t mind exposure to the elements, you can save up to 60% or more on open-air transport. This is a good option for those on a budget.
- Inquire about first-time transport discounts: If this is your first time transporting a vehicle with a particular company, they may be willing to give you a first-timers discount, to encourage you to book with them again in the future when you have transport needs.

Long Distance Auto Transport to/from Chicago
Normal costs of driving a car across the country include meal costs, hotel bills, fuel prices, etc. You have to pay for all these if you plan on driving your car to another state or across longer distances in general.
However, you can share these costs with more than 10 other people by using an auto transport company. Your car will be stationary on a platform along with all the rest, and only the truck that’s transporting them will require fuel.
Also, the driver’s meals will be covered by all the car owners, making the individual price very small. So, even with the little extra the auto transport company is bound to put on top for their troubles, it’s still more affordable than driving the car yourself.
