Auto Auctions Transport: How Much Does IAAI Insurance Auto Auctions Tampa Shipping Cost
In Palmetto Florida, there is an auction site called IAAI Insurance Auto Auctions Tampa.
They auction out vehicles of different types ranging from cars to motorbikes, SUVs, trucks, boats, and even heavy equipment. Some of the vehicles at the site are from insurance companies who are auctioning off their clients’ totaled vehicles.
The cost of shipping can be the break or make aspect of purchasing a vehicle at an auction. This is because if the cost is too high, the whole purchase becomes too expensive.
IAAI Auctions offers shipping services under their IAAI Transport branch. While the service is easy to initiate, the quality of service can be too low for some people.
If that sort of shipping isn’t your goal, there is the option to hire a third-party auto transport company to ship your vehicle from the auction site to a location of your choice.
How Does Shipping from/to IAAI Insurance Auto Auctions Tampa Work
For sellers, looking to sell or auction out their vehicles, shipping is your full responsibility and that applies to buyers as well.
Sellers have the option to hire IAAI Transport to ship their vehicle from their home to the auction site. The care given to your car in most cases is questionable. You can also hire another company to ship your vehicle to the site.
Buyers have the same options but unlike sellers, they have a limited time of free storage. If they haven’t shipped their vehicle out of the auction site within 4 days, they will pay for every extra day the car spends at the lot.
So, the decision on what shipping method to choose is important. We recommend third-party shipping because most vehicles at auction sites need care during shipping and IAAI Transport doesn’t offer that.
How Much Does It Cost to Ship Your Vehicle from/to Auto Auction
The cost of shipping depends on the distance majorly. You pay more for the distance the transporter has to travel. Things like shipping methods, pile on the cost as well.
If you hire a third-party shipping company, you will pay about a dollar per mile for distances less than 500 miles. The dollar rate per mile reduces as the distance increases.
IAAI Transport, on the other hand, can be twice that in cost. To pile up on that, IAAI Transport doesn’t help you offload your vehicle at the destination.
