Frequently Asked Questions
What is West Coast auto transport?

How much does it cost to ship a car on the West Coast?
The cost to ship a car along the West Coast generally ranges between $400 and $900 for short regional routes, and $1,000–$1,400 for longer coast-to-coast transport. Pricing depends on distance, vehicle size, route demand, and whether you choose enclosed or open transport. You can estimate your total using our car shipping cost guide.
How long does West Coast car shipping take?
Regional West Coast shipments usually take 1–4 days depending on distance and carrier availability. For example, a Los Angeles to Seattle route may take 3–5 days, while local California deliveries can be completed within 24–48 hours. Expedited services are available through our same-day auto transport program.
What is the best time of year to ship a car on the West Coast?
The best months for West Coast car shipping are spring and early fall, when carrier demand and traffic are moderate. Summer sees higher prices due to relocation season, while winter storms in the Pacific Northwest can cause delays. Planning 1–2 weeks ahead ensures better scheduling and rates.
Are West Coast auto transport companies licensed and insured?
Reputable auto transporters must be registered with the FMCSA and carry federal motor carrier insurance. Always verify the carrier’s USDOT and MC numbers before booking. Working with A1 Auto Transport ensures all carriers meet full compliance with Department of Transportation regulations.
