Once your vehicle is ready to go, the carrier’s window for pickup is typically 24 to 72 hours. Please note that in remote locations or during peak season, this window may extend up to 5 days.
Estimated Transit Times
The estimated travel time from the moment your vehicle is picked up until it reaches its final destination is as follows:
For distances Under 1,000 miles, transit time is 2–3 days.
For distances from 1,000 to 1,750 miles, transit time is estimated at 4–6 days.
For distances from 1,750 to 2,500 miles, transit time is estimated at 7–10 days.
Why Professional Car Shipping is Better Than Driving Yourself
It can be tempting to drive your car yourself to save money, but the true cost of a long-distance road trip can add up quickly. Choosing a professional car delivery service is often the more practical and cost-effective choice when you factor in the hidden expenses of driving yourself:
Fuel and food costs
Toll fees and unplanned lodging expenses
Wear and tear on your vehicle (depreciation and maintenance)
The risk of accidents or unexpected damage on the road
The value of your time and lost productivity
By choosing a professional auto transport company, you save time, avoid the stress and risks of the road, and can focus on settling into your new location. It is always more advisable to let Number 1 Auto Transport handle the job and ensure your vehicle arrives safely and securely through our proven car shipping and delivery services.
Understanding Your Car Shipping and Delivery Costs
The cost of your car shipping and delivery service depends on a few key factors, but our quotes are always transparent with no hidden fees. With over 50,000 vehicles delivered in the last 15 years, we know exactly what impacts your final price.
Here are the main factors that affect your vehicle delivery service cost:
Distance and Route: This is the most important factor. Longer journeys and less-traveled routes result in a higher price.
Location Type (City vs. Rural): The cost is impacted by the pick-up and drop-off accessibility. Picking up or delivering a car in a busy metropolitan area costs less than a remote, quiet town due to routing efficiency.
Choice of Transport: We offer two secure options. Open Transport is our most popular and affordable choice. Enclosed Transport costs more but provides extra protection for your high-value vehicle from weather and road debris.
Vehicle Size and Weight: Larger vehicles, like heavy trucks or oversized SUVs, take up more space and weigh more, increasing the cost compared to a small sedan.
Time of Year and Demand: Seasonal demand impacts the price. It costs more to ship a car in the summer when more people are moving, and the same is true around major holidays.
