More reasons to use Vehicle Shippers instead of driving
- Avoid hazardous driving conditions. We all know about the dangers of long-distance driving. Especially if you are considering traveling by car through multiple states, consider using an auto shipping company. Save yourself the stress of having to navigate unfamiliar areas and hazardous road conditions and, instead, leave the driving to one of our professional car transporters.
- Renting a vehicle can be costly. Renting a car while you are away can also be inconvenient. In addition to the restrictions that come with renting a car, many people find it uncomfortable driving a vehicle that is not their own. Is it a lot easier and more convenient to have your own vehicle?
- Save time and get where you’re going faster. Driving from the northeast to the south by car takes considerable time. You’re subject to traffic, unpredictable road conditions, other drivers, etc. Save yourself the hassle and ship your vehicle with Smart Auto Move!
- Save money on your travel costs. Have you ever added up the expenses of a cross-country road trip? People who travel by car can quickly rack up the costs, whether it is refueling, unexpected emergencies, hotel costs, stopping to eat, or other detours that may occur along the way.
- Enjoy your travel plans! And let them get ruined! When driving long distances by car, things often fail to go as planned. Weather delays, poor road conditions, and mechanical problems can all cause delays from a few hours to several days. Instead, you can use Smart Auto Move as your trusted car mover and get to your destination on time and with peace of mind.
Factors of Vehicle Shipper rates
Length, Height and Weight of a Vehicle
Rates increase with the longer, taller and heavier a vehicle is, be sure to mention any modifications that have been made to a vehicle that may have changed its original height, weight and or ground clearance
Vehicles Operational Status
Shipping a vehicle with a non-running status will typically cost more due to it requiring additional equipment and poses extra challenges to get it on and off the car shipping trailer, which can make deliveries a bit harder. If you can get your vehicle to a condition that it can be driven onto the trailer, you'll see savings, if not don't worry; if it can roll, brake, and steer, we'll take care of it.
The Carrier You Choose
Most customers would find that shipping their vehicles on an open car hauler to be sufficient. But for customers that own high-end luxury vehicles or cars that must be kept from being exposed to the elements enclosed or covered vehicle shipping trailers are the way to go, but does come at an additional cost.
Distance Between Point A & Point B
The distance between your pick up and delivery points will play a significant factor in your overall cost. Mid-sized sedans transported within 350 miles typically pay an average of $1.00 per mile, 1000 miles around 75 cents per mile, the longer your distance the lower the rate per mile becomes.
