At first glance, the auto-shipping process may appear confusing, but once you go into it, you will realize it is surprisingly straightforward. Once you grasp the tips and a few common terms used by auto transport companies, you will have no problems navigating through the process.

The most critical part of shipping, especially for starters, is choosing a reliable and trustworthy auto transport company. You must ensure the transporter you pick to ship your vehicle is reputable and experienced. The hauler company you hire must have a good standing among customers and is highly rated on relevant platforms. Further, they must have adequate insurance to cover your vehicle throughout the shipping process.

How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car to Islamorada?

The cost of shipping an automobile from one location to another in the US varies depending on the transportation distance, type and condition of the vehicle, and transport options. Most transporters charge between $600 and $1500 for in-country shipping.

We recommend you request multiple quotes before picking one that suits your budget. Reputable transporters offer free and non-obligatory quote forms, so you have no reason to worry about requesting as many quotes as possible. Some shippers provide the quote immediately, while others will call you back with a quote a few minutes after completing the quote.

It is important to provide accurate information in the quote form to avoid a huge disparity between the quote and the final shipping cost. Remember, the amount on the quote is just an estimate of the auto transport cost.

Previously we mentioned the factors that impact the shipping cost. Here is a breakdown of how these factors:

Type And Condition of The Vehicle

Shipping large and heavy automobiles will cost you more than shipping smaller and lighter automobiles. Expensive and luxury cars require more to ship because of the insurance policy required.

Regarding the car’s condition, the cost of shipping inoperable vehicles is higher than shipping operable vehicles. The additional cost of shipping non-running cars is because of the extra equipment required during loading and unloading.

Auto Shipping Distance

Without a doubt, distance is the most important consideration when calculating the auto shipping cost. The more the distance, the higher the shipping cost and vice versa. This is attributed to more fuel and time spent by the carrier truck to ship cars to longer distances. However, the auto shipping rate per mile is often lower for longer distances than shorter distances to prevent long-distance customers from paying exorbitant prizes.

Drop-Off and Pickup Options

Mostly, you can choose the door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal service for drop-off and pickup. The auto transport company picks up and transports your car from and to your location of choice for door-to-door service. It is convenient but will cost you more than you would have spent on the terminal-to-terminal service.

On the other hand, the terminal-to-terminal service requires you to drop off and pick up your vehicle at a predetermined location. The only challenge with this option is the security of your vehicle at the shipping company’s terminus.

Transport Option (Open Vs. Enclosed Transport)

Established transporters offer open and enclosed transport options. Both are reliable and will ensure your vehicle arrives at the destination safely, but the trucks used vary in design. As the name suggests, the open transport options use uncovered trucks to move cars. It is not the best option if you are worried about exposing your automobile to road debris or harsh weather conditions. However, it is affordable and easily available.

We recommend you use enclosed transport when shipping an expensive, luxury or highly delicate automobile. But for ordinary vehicles, the open transport option is good. The challenge with enclosed transport is its cost. You could pay up to 60% more than you would have to ship your car with open transport.

Other factors that influence the auto shipping rates are season and fuel prices. Auto shipping rates vary from one season to another. For instance, you’re likely to pay higher rates during summer and holidays because of the increased demand for shipping slots. You’re likely to pay higher rates when the fuel prices are high than when they are low.
