Using Pawtucket Vehicle Transport Companies

How Much Will It Cost? - The cost of shipping a car is determined by a couple different factors, which we’ll go over here. It’s difficult to give an average price since the main cost has to do with the distance being shipped. For longer distances, you may get an estimate that is 50 cents per mile or less. For shorter trips, you may pay as much as $1 per mile or more. These estimates are based on standard sized cars--if you need a SUV or RV shipped, it will naturally cost more. For most motorcycles, it will cost less. If you have your vehicle transported in an enclosed carrier, that tends to be more expensive than open carriers, which can transport several vehicles at once.

The weight of your vehicle matters when it comes to determining cost! Read this to get an idea of the curb weights for different types of vehicles.

Saving Money - There are a few different ways you can save yourself some money when hiring an auto shipper. The first is by simply planning ahead. It’s best to start planning several weeks to months from your expected pickup window. That way, you’ll be able to stay organized and the companies you contact will have enough time to coordinate everything on their end--essentially, booking enough vehicles to fill an auto carrier. Having some flexibility in your delivery time may work to your benefit as well, though it may not always be an option. Finally, you should ask about discounts. Discount programs vary, but most shippers have some form of price break available for members of the military, students, AAA members, snowbirds, and overseas travelers. They’re not always advertised so don’t be shy about asking!

Exotic Cars - If you own an exotic or luxury car, you may prefer that it be shipped by itself in an enclosed carrier. Standard auto transport is done using open air carriers and involve slightly more risk of weather damage and road hazards during shipping. An open air carrier is also designed to move multiple cars at once, which may not be suitable for expensive or high-end vehicles. At A-1 Auto Transport, we recommend that our customers who need an exotic car shipped use an enclosed carrier since it offers the ultimate in vehicle protection and safety. Enclosed car shipping is also easier to accommodate door-to-door delivery since the trucks are typically smaller.
