How Much Does It Cost To Ship A Car
Before you begin searching for the right transporter, you will probably want to know how much you will spend on shipping your car. The shipping cost within the US for most shipping companies ranges between $700 to $1200.
Even though it's tough to determine the exact shipping cost, here are some factors that affect the shipping cost.
- Transportation distance
- Size and model of car
- Shipping method
- Auto-shipping option
Shipping Distance
The distance between the location and destination of your car is an important factor when calculating the shipping cost. Most shipping companies will have their price per mile indicated on their website, which ranges from $0.65 and $0.75.
For example, if the rate per mile is $.0.75, you will pay $750 to ship a car to 1000 miles distance. Shipping companies decrease the shipping rate per mile as the transportation distance increases.
Size And Model of The Car
The size and model of your car will also greatly impact the shipping cost. Heavier vehicles like pickup trucks and SUVs cost more to transport than sedans. A small number of big cars can fit into a carrier truck compared to small cars. Equally, big cars are heavier, so the carrier truck will use more fuel to transport them.
Ensure you provide accurate information about your car when filling out the quote form to avoid a future increase in the shipping cost.
Shipping Method
Most auto transport companies provide two major shipping methods; door-to-door and terminal-to-terminal. Each of these methods will ensure your car arrives at the destination in good condition but differ in many ways.
Door-to-door shipping is the most convenient way of relocating a car. For this method, the shipping company will send a representative to pick up and deliver your car to your location of choice. It is more expensive to ship a car with the door-to-door service because the carrier truck will spend more time and fuel picking and delivering your car to its destination.
You will pick up and deliver your car to and from a predetermined location for the terminal-to-terminal option. Although you will pay less to use this service, the inconvenience and insecurity in the terminuses make it a cumbersome choice. Some car transport companies may not have safe terminuses. If you choose this method, pick up your car as soon as it arrives at the terminus.
Auto-Shipping Option
Apart from the door-to-door and terminal-to-terminal services, you can ship your car with an open-air or enclosed carrier. The two carrier options differ in terms of safety and shipping cost.
Open-air carriers are cheaper and can transport more vehicles. The only challenge of shipping with an open-air truck is exposing your vehicle to road debris and harsh weather conditions during shipping.
Enclosed carriers are fully covered trucks or containers used to ship cars. It is an expensive option; you could pay up to 60% more to ship your car with an enclosed carrier than with an open-air carrier. Because of the increased safety, enclosed carriers can ship a smaller number of vehicles.
Other Factors to Consider
- Condition of the car: It is more costly to ship an inoperable car than an operable one. Inoperable cars require special equipment to help during loading and unloading, which adds to the final cost. On the other hand, the procedure required for loading and unloading inoperable cars is easier; the car is driven into and out of the carrier truck.
- Season: Shipping a car during peak months is more expensive because of the surge in demand for shipping slots. Often the shipping cost during summer is $200 to $300 higher than during winter. If your schedule allows, shipping a car during winter is cheap.
- The number of cars: Most transporters offer discounts to customers shipping multiple cars.

FAQS
What Are the Cheapest Shipping Options?
Shipping with an open carrier truck and choosing the terminal-to-terminal service is the cheapest way of shipping a car. Other ways to cut down the shipping cost include shipping multiple cars, emptying the car before shipping, and shipping when the demand for shipping slots is low.
Is It Safe to Ship with An Open-Air Carrier?
Yes. The open-air carrier option is one of the safest ways of shipping a car. The only challenge with this option is that your car is exposed to the outside environment during shipping.
How Can I Ship My Luxury Car?
The safest way to ship a luxury car is the combination of the enclosed carrier and the door-to-door service. Your luxury car is loaded into a fully covered truck and transported to your location of choice.
What Is the Cost of Shipping a Car to Another State?
The cost of shipping a car to a different state depends on the transportation distance and type of car. Most auto carrier companies charge between $700 to $1000 to ship a motor vehicle to a different state.
When Is the Best Time to Ship a Car?
If your schedule allows, shipping a car during the winter months is best. During this time, fewer people move, so the demand for shipping slots will be low.
