There are a lot of factors that go into transporting a car across the country or internationally. At Auto Transport we take into consideration all of these factors when deciding on your car shipping quote. We aim to offer you competitive quotations whilst never compromising on the service we provide. Here are a few of the elements that determine your car transport estimate.
How far your car has to be transported is a key factor in producing your car shipping quote. The amount of fuel used, the number of man-hours and the cost of tolls will differ depending on how far your vehicle has to travel and where it is traveling to. For example, shipping cars across the state will cost considerably less than international car shipping.
In addition, the amount of traffic along the route can affect the cost of car transportation. Traffic impacts the amount of time it takes to get from one destination to another and therefore some routes may be longer in terms of mileage but quicker as the roads are less busy.
When Auto Transport gives you your free quote, having an accurate drop off location will allow us to provide you with the best estimate of the cost of your car shipping.
A smaller sized car will most likely cost less to transport as they take up less room. If your car is a standard size and can fit on one of Auto Transports multi-car transporters, your car transport estimate will be less as multiple cars to be shipped at once.
The size of your vehicle is even more relevant when shipping a car overseas. Larger vehicles take up more room whilst on the ship and therefore carry a higher rate.
