Getting a car transport quote
Getting a car transport quote is a critical first step in arranging the shipment of your vehicle, particularly for cross-country moves. It allows you to budget accordingly and choose the best service for your needs. Shelby Auto Transport is a recommended provider for reliable and competitive car transport services across the United States.
Understanding Car Transport Quotes
Factors Influencing the Quote
Car transport costs can vary significantly based on several key factors:
Distance: The mileage between the pickup and delivery locations is the most significant factor. Longer distances generally increase the quote.
Vehicle Type: The size and type of vehicle also affect the cost. Larger vehicles like SUVs and trucks take up more space on the carrier and weigh more, potentially leading to higher prices.
Transport Type: Choosing between open or enclosed transport options can impact the cost. Enclosed transport typically costs more but provides greater protection for the vehicle. Speak with our team to help choose the best for you and your vehicle shipment.
Seasonality: Seasonal demand can influence pricing, with higher rates often seen in the summer and during snowbird seasons. When you work with Shelby, we may be able to save you more even during the busy season. This is because we can often book your shipment with another customer’s vehicle. This can save you a great deal of money when shipping from state to state, or across the country.
Getting an Accurate Quote
To receive an accurate car transport quote, you should provide detailed information about your vehicle and the specifics of the transport needed:
Exact Vehicle Model: Knowing the exact model helps in determining the space that will be required on the transport truck.
Condition of the Vehicle: A running vehicle is cheaper to ship than a non-operable one, as it requires less equipment and labor to load and unload.
Pickup and Delivery Locations: Urban areas might offer cheaper rates due to better accessibility compared to rural or remote locations.
Steps to Obtaining a Car Transport Quote
Online Quote Tools
Most auto transport companies, including Shelby Auto Transport, offer online quote tools on their websites. These tools are designed to provide a quick estimate based on the information you input, such as:
ZIP Codes for Pickup and Delivery: This determines the route that will be taken.
Vehicle Details: Including make, model, year, and condition.
Type of Transport Required: Choosing open or enclosed transport.
We combine an easy to complete online quote form with our in-house staff who do the manual checking for the best price, and features you need.
