Factors to contemplate When Choosing a Transport Option for A Vehicle

There are two transport options when relocating an automobile across the US; drive the vehicle or hire an auto transport company. While both will ensure your vehicles arrives at the destination, they vary in cost, operation and logistics. Each of these options is affected by distance, topography and weather conditions.

Deciding whether to drive or ship a car can be challenging. Here are some factors you should consider to help you choose the right transport option for your automobile:

Type And Condition of The Automobile

Nobody understands your vehicle more than you do. First, you must consider the fuel and the cost you will spend to complete the journey as per the current fuel prices. You will spend more fuel on bigger cars than smaller cars.

Small cars, old or used vehicles, may not be comfortable navigating long distances, especially if they are loaded. If you are not sure about the ability of your car, it is important to seek a professional's opinion. Auto transport is the better option when relocating an old, antique or used automobile.

For inoperable automobiles, you have no option but to ship them. Even if you want to repair it before transport, subjecting a newly repaired automobile to a long-distance journey is a huge risk.

Distance

The distance between the location and destination of the vehicle is another important consideration when choosing a transport option. When the distance is no more than 500 miles and the car you want to move is in good condition, driving it is cheaper and saves time. Depending on your driving skills, such a trip should not take more than three days.

But if your destination is thousands of miles, auto transport is safer and more efficient. Your vehicle will not add any mileage, and the wear and tear are minimal. You only need a maximum of two days to prepare the car for shipping, deliver it for transport and pick it up at the end of the shipping process.

Budget

You have probably set aside some money to transport your vehicle to your desired destination. And so, you want a transport option that is within your budget. Some of the costs to include when calculating the cost of driving include fuel, accommodation/refreshments, parking and car repairs. However, you could spend much more than anticipated because of the uncertainties associated with long-distance driving.

On the other hand, there is not much to evaluate when calculating the cost of shipping a car. You simply find a reputable transporter and request a quote form. However, the information you provide in the quote form should be accurate to avoid a huge disparity with the final price.

At A-1 Auto Transport, we require you to provide your car type, location, destination and preferred auto transport option in the quote form. If there is an increase in the final shipping cost, it should not be too high, and the transporter should justify it.

Overall, the auto shipping cost will be slightly higher than the cost of driving, but it is worth the price. There is no need for you to save a few dollars only for your automobile to arrive at the destination in deplorable condition.

Safety

No matter the transport option you choose, you must consider your safety and that of your vehicle. If you choose to drive it, make sure the routes you take are safe, especially when driving alone. Frequent travelers are in a better place to advise on the safety of specific roads. Be careful with routes that will require you to cross a forest or park; a flat tire or engine problems on such roads could be disastrous.

Auto transport is a good transport alternative for unsafe roads. Unlike driving, where you must be on the wheel, your vehicle is loaded into a specially designed truck and transported to your desired destination. Auto carrier companies have implemented numerous safety measures; the trucks used are huge and less susceptible to attacks. In addition, they ensure all vehicles in transit are insured.

Both driving and auto shipping will ensure your automobile arrives at the destination, but you need it in the best condition possible at the end. You don't have to add thousands of miles to your car and risk your safety to save a few dollars. Plus, you can spend the time you would have spent on the road to make money.
