Does The Size Of The Vehicle Affect The Shipping Price?



Typically, the larger and/or heavier the vehicle is, the higher the shipping cost.  

The weight of the vehicle is a large factor in determining the cost to transport it, because these trucks have weight limits that they must abide by.  So in general, larger, heavier vehicles and trucks will cost more than lighter, smaller sedans or motorcycles.

It also depends on the type of transportation that you choose.  For instance, shipping a high-end sport bike in an enclosed carrier may cost more than shipping a standard car in an open carrier.

Additionally, if your vehicle is bigger than a standard car, truck or SUV, it is important that you inform the auto transport company so that they can secure the appropriate mode of transportation. 

Shipping an RV, for example, will incur an additional cost as it requires a flatbed carrier that can handle over-sized loads.

Bottom line, vehicle size is an important factor in determining shipping price.  Also, it is important to let us know ahead of time about any modifications that affect the overall size and weight of your vehicle (like the 4-inch lift kit that may make it impossible to fit your truck on a standard 10-car carrier).  

The more information that you provide us, the more accurate the quote will be, and the smoother the shipping process will be.
