A recent report by census.gov indicates that nearly 15% of Americans relocate to different states yearly. Such a move can be exciting and adventurous; the only challenge is finding a reliable way to move items, especially when you have a vehicle (s) that needs to be moved.

So, when relocating a car to another state, what options do you have? Here are three options to move an automobile from one state to another.

Oreland Auto Transport Pricing & Time To Ship Your Car Examples

*Prices and times for Pennsylvania auto shipping are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and what type of vehicle you are shipping.

Tow It

You can move your vehicle to a different state by towing it with a U-Haul or moving truck. It is one of the cheapest ways to move a car since you do not have to involve too many people. The only major challenge you're likely to face is that your views out of the mirror of your vehicle are affected, which poses a danger to you and other road users. Also, maneuverability becomes difficult since you won't be able to reverse with your vehicle towed to another car.

A trip with a towed vehicle takes longer because of the precautions you must take during the journey. It's a good option if you want to save money and don't mind spending days on the road.

Drive The Car

You can drive the vehicle or hire someone you trust to do the job. This option does not require a lot of planning. You load your stuff into the car and start the journey. On paper, the driving option may appear the most cost-effective and convenient, but this is not always the case.

You have to account for the cost of fuel, food, accommodation, car repair and several days spent off work. And remember, mileage increase depreciates the value of your vehicle. You could end up paying more than planned for the trip.

Only experienced drivers can comfortably complete eight hours on the road. Because of tiredness, you could make mistakes that could hamper your safety. In addition, after a long journey, you will be fatigued.

Auto Shipping or Car Transport

Last on our list is hiring a professional auto transport company to move your vehicle. Your vehicle is loaded onto a carrier truck and transported to your desired destination. It is the safest and most convenient way of relocating automobiles across the country.

First, you need to find the right auto transport company to handle the shipment. Even though you can find a local auto transport company, we advise you to search online. There you will find a bigger pool of established haulers to choose from. When researching, you should consider customer reviews, services offered, customer care, and insurance coverage.

Once you have a small list of auto transport companies that meet your needs, request quotes from each. Move a step forward and call haulers that are within your budget and ask any questions you have concerning their services. Make them understand how you want your vehicle to be transported. Remember that the final auto transport cost could differ from the original quote, especially if you did not provide accurate information about your shipment. So, ask the transport company about any possible additional costs.

Once you have a quote, you need to consider the auto transport option that suits your needs. You have to choose between open and enclosed transport.

Open Vs. Enclosed Transport

You have probably encountered uncovered trucks loaded with vehicles, some double layers while others flatbed; those are open transport trucks. Over 80% of auto transport customers prefer open transport over enclosed transport because it is cheaper, readily available, and can transport more vehicles.

On the other hand, enclosed transport is an option in which vehicles are shipped inside a fully covered trailer. The wall and roof protect your vehicle from road debris, harsh weather conditions, and all other outdoor elements.
