What Impacts the Cost of Shipping a Car

The price isn’t the same for every job. A few things can change what you end up paying.

Distance – Longer hauls cost more overall, though the price per mile often drops a bit on big trips.
Transport type – Enclosed trailers offer better protection. But they also come with a higher price tag.
Vehicle details – Bigger cars or ones that don’t run need extra care and equipment, which can add to the total.
Route demand – Shipping between major cities usually costs less than heading out to smaller towns.
Time of year – Prices can climb in busy seasons or when weather makes travel tougher.
