Top-Rated Auto Transporter:
Variables That Determine Shipping Cost
RCG is unique in the auto industry because we offer full logistics based on a range of factors. Our highly detailed approach to determining transport costs ensures our clients get the best shipping prices possible
Here are some of the factors we use to determine the overall cost of car transport:
Distance
The shorter the distance, the higher the cost per mile. For longer distances, it will cost more overall, but the price is considerably lower per mile.
Vehicle Height
Taller vehicles are more expensive to transport because they usually require specialist transport vehicles, or they may need their own exclusive vehicle, as opposed to being shipped as part of a package.
Vehicle Length
Vehicles above 196 inches are more difficult to fit inside a standard transport vehicle. Therefore the costs are higher.
Make and Model
Different makes and models all have different weights. The heavier the vehicle, the higher the shipping cost because fewer cars can be included on a single transport vehicle due to Federal weight restrictions.
Open vs. Enclosed
Open trailer is the most common and cost less than enclosed. Enclosed is the highest standard of car transport and ensures your vehicle is safe and secure at all times.
Seasonality
Car transport is generally cheaper in the summer because, during the winter, the usual trucking lanes tend to be obstructed or closed due to severe weather.
How Seasons Affect the Cost of Shipment
When you ship a car across the country, one of the most influential factors in the cost is the season you choose to opt for auto relocation.
Here’s what you need to know about how the different seasons affect the cost of vehicle transport services with RCG Auto Logistics:

Fall can also come with its fair share of hazards. Throughout much of the Southeastern U.S., for example, this is the main hurricane season. Experienced drivers must take into account potentially heavy winds and rain.
Our partner carriers will give your vehicle the care and attention it deserves as it moves through any potential hazardous zones.
Furthermore, demand is high in the fall. With hundreds of thousands of college students and snowbirds relocating to warmer weather, shipping carriers are hard-pressed to meet that demand.
