What Affects Your Shipping Cost?

Every route is different. Here are the six factors that determine your final price.

Season and Time of Year

Summer demand and snowbird season push rates higher. Book early for peak periods.

Pick-up and Delivery Location

Urban metros are faster and cheaper to service than rural or hard-to-reach areas.

Vehicle Size and Weight

Larger trucks, SUVs, and vans cost more to transport than standard sedans or coupes.

Vehicle Condition

Non-running vehicles require special loading equipment and carry an additional charge.

Desired Pick-up Window

Flexible scheduling typically saves money. Expedited pickup carries a premium.

Open or Enclosed Carrier

Enclosed transport costs more but protects high-value, classic, or exotic vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you book.

How much does it cost to ship a car?
Vehicle shipping costs depend on route distance, vehicle size, transport type (open or enclosed), and current carrier availability. Most routes across the continental US range from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars. Route Runners provides free quotes - call (888) 424-4420 or visit routerunnersautotransport.com for current pricing on your specific route.
How long does vehicle transport take?
Local Long Island moves can happen same day or next day. East Coast runs typically take 3 to 5 days. Cross-country transport usually runs 7 to 10 days. Route Runners dispatches carriers within 1 to 3 days on most routes.
What is the difference between open and enclosed auto transport?
Open transport uses an open multi-car carrier - the most common option and typically lower cost. Enclosed transport uses a covered carrier that protects the vehicle from weather, road debris, and visibility. Enclosed is recommended for luxury, exotic, classic, or high-value vehicles. Route Runners offers both.
Do you ship inoperable vehicles?
Yes. Route Runners ships inoperable vehicles that cannot be driven onto a carrier under their own power. Inoperable transport requires additional loading equipment and is priced accordingly. Contact Route Runners at (888) 424-4420 with the vehicle details for an accurate quote.
How do I prepare my car for shipping?
Before pickup: remove all personal belongings, leave only about a quarter tank of fuel, document existing exterior damage with photos, disable toll transponders and car alarms, and make sure the vehicle is accessible for loading. Route Runners will walk you through any specific preparation steps when you book.
