Shipping a car can feel overwhelming, especially when you're in a hurry. Whether you're moving, buying a car from far away, or just need to get your vehicle somewhere fast, knowing the fastest way to ship a car is key. Fast auto shipping isn't just about speed; it's about making sure your car arrives safely and in good shape.
Obviously a cargo plane is the fastest way to ship a car anywhere. However, being that the cost of using a cargo plane can be very cost prohibitive and difficult to find , so this leads us to the open transport truck, the fastest way to ship a car that does not have restrictions in cost and availability.
When you need to ship your car quickly, understanding what "fast" means in auto transport is important as it may not be as you think. Speed can refer to two critical factors: how promptly your vehicle is picked up and how swiftly it reaches its destination after pickup. Let's explore both elements to help you achieve the quickest car shipping experience possible.
The pickup window is the designated period during which a carrier is scheduled to collect your car. This timeframe typically spans 24 to 48 hours for fast transport. Regardless of how fast we get the vehicle, the duration of the transport is limited to laws and regulations governing auto shipping carriers. In other words, fast car shipping means fastest pick up.
If you're in a rush, expedited shipping services are the fastest way to get a car delivered. These services make your car a priority, so it's picked up and delivered as quickly as possible. While this option costs more, it's perfect for when you need your car moved fast. Companies offering expedited services often have drivers ready to go at a moment's notice, cutting down wait times a lot.
Expedited will prioritize your vehicle's pickup ahead of others. While this usually involves an additional fee, it significantly reduces wait times. Carriers often select the highest-paying jobs first. By providing a more attractive rate than others shipping along the same route, you increase the likelihood of your car being picked up sooner.
Our goal is to combine speed with affordability, offering some of the most competitive rates for expedited car shipping without compromising on service quality.
After your car is on the road, the next consideration is the transit time—how long it will take to arrive at its destination. Carriers generally cover about 400 to 500 miles per day. For example, for approximately every 1,000 miles of distance, anticipate around two to three days of transit time regardless of wether you select expedited or not.
Overland transport has its limitations. For example, it's not feasible for a carrier to move your car from New York City to Los Angeles in 48 hours due to distance and regulatory constraints.
Remember that this is a general estimate. Various factors—such as weather conditions, traffic, and logistical challenges—can impact transit times. While we strive to provide accurate delivery forecasts, exact arrival dates cannot be guaranteed by anyone in the industry.
By understanding and managing both the pickup window and the transit duration, you can better plan for a fast and efficient car shipping process. We're here to assist you in finding the optimal balance between speed and cost, making sure your vehicle reaches its destination as quickly and safely as possible.
