Reliable Car Shipping Services

AutoTransport.com arranges door-to-door vehicle transport nationwide on both open and enclosed carriers. We move cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats and RVs, including non-running and oversized vehicles. Every carrier assigned to your vehicle is licensed, bonded and insured, and you can ask for the certificate of insurance before pickup.

Here are a few of the vehicle transport services we offer:

  • Open carrier shipping: your vehicle travels on an open trailer — the standard choice for about nine in ten vehicles moved in the United States, including new cars delivered to dealerships.
  • Enclosed trailer transport: your vehicle is fully enclosed behind walls and a roof, the right call for classic, exotic, low-clearance and high-value vehicles.
  • Classic and vintage vehicle shipping: for private owners, car shows and businesses.
  • Auto auction transport: collection from auction sites and delivery anywhere in or out of the state.
  • Specialty vehicles: motorcycles, buses, boats, RVs and more.

What a vehicle move costs depends on distance, the size and condition of the vehicle, the trailer type, the route and the season. Longer trips cost less per mile than short ones, because dispatch, loading and paperwork do not get cheaper on a short haul — so they weigh more heavily on a short move.

Open transport is the standard and least expensive option. Enclosed transport typically adds roughly 30–60% on the same lane, and earns its premium in three cases: a classic or exotic car where the paint is part of the value, a low-clearance car that needs a lift gate rather than a ramp, and a route or season that would put the vehicle in salt, hail or sustained grit.

A vehicle that will not roll, steer and brake needs a winch and is quoted differently from one that does. Oversized and lifted vehicles take more deck space and are also priced separately.

The most accurate way to price a move is to give us two ZIP codes and the vehicle’s year, make and model. We will quote the specific lane rather than stretch a per-mile average across it.

Auto Transport Planning

Carriers serving Racine work from Wisconsin’s main freight corridors — Interstate 94 between the Twin Cities, Madison and Milwaukee, Interstate 90 across the south, and Interstate 41 and Interstate 43 up the eastern side of the state. Routing to your address is planned from whichever of those a driver is already running, which is why lanes close to a major corridor are collected sooner and priced more competitively than those needing a detour.

We deliver door-to-door wherever a truck can physically reach. An open carrier at full length is 75 to 80 feet, so tight streets, height-restricted garages and gated communities sometimes call for a meeting point at a wider road or a nearby parking area instead of the kerb outside your door.

Give us the exact street address rather than just the ZIP code when you request a quote, and mention any gate or height restriction. Whether a truck can reach the door is a question about that specific street, and it is far cheaper to settle before dispatch than on the day.

We always plan a clear route for you.

How Much It Costs to Ship a Car to or from Racine

Cost is the first question on almost every call, and the honest answer is that it depends on distance more than anything else. Published long-distance moves to and from Wisconsin run between $650 and $1,330 for an operable vehicle on an open carrier. That range reflects mileage: rates work out to roughly $0.80 per mile on shorter hauls and settle to about $0.65 per mile once a route passes 1,000 miles.

The variables that push a quote up or down are consistent: how large the vehicle is, whether it starts and steers, whether it goes on an open or an enclosed trailer, and how tight the pickup date is. Flexibility is the cheapest thing to give — a two or three day window is materially less expensive than a fixed date.

Very short hauls are the exception. Below roughly 650 miles the per-mile arithmetic stops describing what a carrier actually needs to run the load, so those moves are quoted on their own rather than off a table.

Routes and Transit Times from Racine

I-94 is the corridor that shapes most Wisconsin moves. It runs from the Illinois line through Milwaukee and Madison to Eau Claire and Minnesota.

This is why proximity to the corridor matters more than raw distance. Carriers assemble a load along a line and fill it as they go, so an address near the interstate joins a truck sooner. Addresses further out are still served — the pickup window simply runs a day or two longer.

Once loaded, a truck covers 400 to 500 miles in a day — that figure comes from federal driving-hour limits and is not negotiable. Use it to sanity-check any transit estimate you are given: a 2,000 mile move that is promised in two days is not a promise anyone can keep.

Pickup and transit are two separate clocks. Assigning a carrier to a Racine address typically takes one to five days depending on the lane and the season; the drive begins after that.

Open or Enclosed: Choosing Equipment for a Wisconsin Move

Open transport is what roughly nine out of ten vehicles ship on. It is the standard eight to ten car trailer, it is the cheapest option, and it is what new cars ride on from the factory to the dealer. Enclosed transport costs meaningfully more and exists for vehicles where road exposure is the thing you are paying to avoid.

Lake-effect snow off Lake Michigan hits the eastern counties hardest, and the northern third of the state can see snow cover from November through March. Salt use is heavy.

Most Racine customers ship open and are right to. Enclosed earns its premium on low-clearance cars that cannot clear a standard ramp, on vehicles with original paint, and on anything being moved through a Wisconsin winter with salt on the roads.

What to Do Before Pickup Day

A clean vehicle is the single most useful thing you can hand a driver. The pickup condition report is the reference document for any later claim, and existing chips and scratches only get recorded if they can be seen.

Run the tank down to roughly a quarter. Fuel is dead weight on a trailer and there is no reason to pay to move it. Pull the toll transponder out before it starts billing you for gantries you never drove under, fold the mirrors in, drop the antenna, and empty the cabin — personal items sit outside the carrier’s cargo policy entirely.

Turn the alarm off or tell the driver how to. A siren going off repeatedly in transit is a genuine problem on a loaded trailer. Then photograph all four corners, the roof and the wheels on pickup day and hold on to your signed bill of lading — between them, those records settle nearly every disagreement that comes up.

Racine Car Shipping: Common Questions

How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Racine?

Long-distance moves to and from Wisconsin generally fall between $650 and $1,330 for a running vehicle on an open carrier. Rates run near $0.80 per mile on shorter hauls and around $0.65 per mile beyond 1,000 miles. Vehicle size, operability, trailer type and how flexible your dates are all move the final figure.

How long does it take to ship a car to or from Racine?

There are two clocks. Assigning a carrier to a Racine pickup usually takes one to five days. Once the vehicle is loaded, a truck covers 400 to 500 miles a day under federal hours-of-service limits — so a regional move is one to three days on the road and a cross-country move is seven to ten.

Do I need open or enclosed transport?

Open transport suits around nine in ten vehicles and costs less. Choose enclosed for classics, low-clearance cars, recent restorations or anything where paint condition is part of the value — and consider it for a winter move through Wisconsin if road salt is a concern.

Can the truck come to my door in Racine?

Usually, but not always. A full-size carrier is around 75 feet long and cannot manage narrow residential streets, low branches or tight cul-de-sacs. When an address will not work, the driver arranges to meet nearby — a supermarket or shopping-center lot is standard practice and does not change the price.

Is my vehicle insured while it is being shipped?

Yes. Every carrier we assign has active cargo insurance in force, and you can request the certificate before pickup. Personal items left in the vehicle are not covered by that policy, which is one of the reasons to empty the car first.

Can I ship a car that does not run?

Yes, with notice. An inoperable vehicle needs a carrier with a winch and takes longer to load, so it costs more and needs to be declared when you book. Tell us whether it rolls, steers and brakes — those three things decide what equipment is sent.
