Your car will be shipped on an open car carrier, typically seen delivering new cars to dealerships. With the capacity to transport multiple vehicles on their trailers, open-car carriers offer the most affordable shipping option. To give you peace of mind, we provide services that are fully licensed and fully insured. The carriers at Werex Trans also offer door-to-door service for an added level of convenience. For long-distance shipments, we provide the option of “top rack placement.” We know that when you’re moving over long distances, it can be difficult to fit all of your belongings in your own vehicle. If you’d like to keep your items in the car while it’s being shipped across the country on one of our open-carrier transports, feel free to ask our helpful logistics coordinator to assign a driver who can accommodate this request!
In 2025, car shipping costs for open car shipping are estimated to be around $1.85 per mile for short distances (1-500 miles), or about $555 for a 300-mile journey. For medium distances (500-1500 miles), the average rate is approximately $0.91 per mile, or $910 for a 1000-mile trip. For long distances (1500+ miles), the cost is around $0.59 per mile, or $1,180 for a 2000-mile shipment. Please keep in mind that car shipping rates can vary, and the prices for enclosed car shipping will generally be higher.
When it comes to shipping your vehicle, several factors determine the cost. Everything from the type of car you’re shipping to the kind of transport method you choose will influence the final price.
Car transport, or car shipping, is a service designed to move vehicles from one location to another. The best car transport involves licensed professionals with the right experience and equipment to safely move your vehicle. The shipping method you choose will impact the cost of your shipment. You can opt for open transport (more affordable) or enclosed transport (more protective). Typically, enclosed transport costs 10-40% more than open transport. Open transport is the most common method, used by most customers, including car dealerships. Enclosed transport is the preferred choice for shipping luxury, exotic, or collector cars that require additional protection.
