Vehicle shipping allows you to transport a car without having to put miles on the car. It also prevents wear and tear from damaging the vehicle, as the car will usually be protected in a shipping crate.
Vehicle shipping time varies by factors like how much you can afford, the season in which the vehicle will be shipped and the schedule of the shipping company.
The size of the vehicle will also determine the typical cost of shipping. For example, you may end up spending $200 more to ship an SUV across the country versus a small sedan, according to Costhelper.com.
Some vehicle shipping services offer expedited shipping, which takes about a week less and costs $200 to $500 more, according to Costhelper.com.
Generally, you can expect to spend between $600 to $1,000 to have a car shipped in the U.S. If you're shipping more than one car to a specific destination, the shipping company may offer you a discount.
