Open car transport involves shipping vehicles on an open trailer, typically accommodating between 7 to 10 cars. These trailers are the same ones you often see on highways, transporting new cars to dealerships. The vehicles are securely strapped down and exposed to the elements, which is the primary difference from enclosed transport. However, the exposure is minimal, and this method remains the most popular due to its affordability and efficiency.
The cost of open car transport depends on various factors such as distance, vehicle size, location, and seasonality. Knowing these elements allows you to make informed decisions, plan your shipment effectively, and manage your budget with confidence.
The total cost of transport increases with distance, though cost per mile typically decreases for longer routes. Additionally, rural or remote areas may have higher rates due to limited carrier availability, while urban locations benefit from lower costs due to more frequent demand and carrier access.
Larger and heavier vehicles require more space and resources, leading to higher shipping costs. Open carriers can accommodate various vehicle types, but pricing is adjusted based on the size and weight of the vehicle, as these factors directly impact carrier logistics and capacity.
Shipping costs fluctuate with the seasons. High-demand periods like summer typically result in higher rates, while winter months may offer reduced pricing. Seasonality impacts carrier availability and transport schedules, making flexibility with shipment dates an advantage for securing better rates.
