What is open car transport?
The cheapest and most accessible method of moving a car door to door across the US is open car transport, also known as open carrier car shipping. Cars travel on multi-level trailers, which are usually made up of seven to ten vehicles. Dealerships use the same equipment every day, which helps to spread operating costs and maintain low cost per mile.
How much does open car shipping cost?
The least expensive method of shipping a car is through an open carrier. Depending on route demand, timing, and vehicle details, the majority of customers see cross-country routes cost between $900 and $1,600+ and regional moves fall between $400 and $900. The following factors are used to determine your precise open car shipping cost.
What influences the price of your open carrier?

The cost per mile is typically lower for longer routes; popular lanes, such as major metros and interstates, are more affordable than remote detours.
Vehicle size/weight

Operability & ground clearance
Vehicles that are non-running or very low require specialized handling and equipment.
