What Is The Cost Of Hauling Vehicles?

transporting vehicles by truck

When calculating the cost of car shipping from Texas to Illinois, keep the following considerations in mind:

  • The distance between the pickup point and the delivery point.
  • The delivery season (it is more expensive to move in the summer than in the winter season)
  • Your car's make, model, size, and weight.
  • The hauling method

How Far Is And How Long Is The Estimated Delivery Time?

The distance between locations is around 995 miles, and driving between locations would take you about 3-5 working days. However, if unforeseen circumstances such as bad weather cause the dispatching to be delayed, the days can be extended.

What Is The Cost-Effective Way To Move?

Consider your budget and the dispatchingoptions available when sending your ride from Texas to Illinois. If you want to ship for less money, the open carrier option is the way to go. The Open Carrier can transport multiple vehicles at once, and you'll split the shifting costs with other customers.

This method, however, is not as safe and reliable as using an enclosed carrier. This is because your vehicle may be exposed to the elements due to weather and driving circumstances. The enclosed carrier option, on the other hand, keeps your ride safe in an enclosed area.

Additionally, using the terminal-to-terminal option will help you save money on shipping. This contrasts door-to-door delivery services, which would incur additional costs.
