  • Open Auto-Shipping:

As the name suggests, Open Auto-shipping is a shipping method that transports your car in an open space. It’s not only cheaper than Enclosed shipping, but it is also widely used across the county.  However, some auto-shipping companies ensure to deliver vehicle cars in good condition.

Shipment cost

To tow your car successfully from California to Florida costs $1295 & the price may go up depending on distance from major highway, weather and the type of vehicle.

  • Location: The distance is a significant determinant of the cost of shipping a vehicle. At some point, the driver will need to stop at a point to lodge and eat. This will amount to extra expenses beyond the initial shipping cost, and there is also the occasional refueling of gas. And there is also the problem of the vicinity, either rural or urban. For rural areas without highways, it’s a challenge to get haulers that will deliver the vehicle to remote locations. Therefore extra charges might be incurred.
  • Car type and Model: As you know, compact cars are more cheaper to ship than the bigger ones. The model of the car is also a determinant. And if it contains personal items to be sent alongside the vehicle, the cost increases.
  • Car Condition: Whether your car is in good shape or not is another factor to consider. For a vehicle that is not running, it will require more time, stress, labor, and equipment. It will also need a driver that is skilled in this kind of operation. Most auto-shipping companies use a forklift to load inoperable cars, which increases the cost.
  • Supply and Demand: For different seasons, the demand for auto shipping services change. When the demand for auto shipping services is high, the price will increase. In contrast, when the demand for auto shipping services is low, the price will drop. The price also varies for different seasons. During winter, when the weather is poor, the price for auto-shipping will increase.
