Express Auto Transport | Expedited Car Shipping

How much does the expedited shipment cost?

Express service typically adds 30% to the cost (about $200-$300 on an “average” order) vs. standard shipping. That’s true whether you choose to ship your vehicle on an open-trailer, or within a fully-enclosed one. The additional cost stems from the extra effort required by both the dispatch team and our drivers to rearrange other customers’ pick-up or drop-off schedules, delay or rebook other clients who may have more flexible situations and who don’t mind accommodating your specific needs.

There may also be additional driving hours or fuel costs involved, as express shipping usually requires arranging for a pick-up or drop-off that is less efficient on a google-map basis − but which we gladly make for you as an express vehicle shipping client − to deliver when you have unique constraints.

Are you moving and looking to ship items in your car? According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, all personal items and household goods must be removed from the vehicle. It's for the safety of your car and the driver.

How long does it take to ship a car express?

In most cases, Express Vehicle Shipping can reduce lead-time for Pick-up from an average of 5-7 business days to as little as 1-2 business days from the time of your call or online booking. Just as often, express auto transport is used by our clients to obtain a guaranteed delivery date: for example, by customers who are flexible on their Pick-up date, but who must ensure the vehicle doesn’t get there before or after some specific day.

Let’s say there’ll be no one at your end to take responsibility for the vehicle’s arrival before “x” date − or the car must be on-hand as a gift, and if it does not arrive by “y” date, someone will be disappointed . . . or worse. That’s when our guarantee comes in handy. 

On long-haul trips, express truck or car delivery can even help compress the elapsed Time-Interval between Pick-up and Drop-off, for those who need to make up time for some other reason. You tell us which feature is most important to you, and we’ll tailor outcomes to meet your goals, while providing great service.

“We got in a lurch, and they saved us. We spend our winters in Clearwater each year, and typically use the same transport company to Florida and home again. But this past spring DAS really let me down. They promised they’d pick up our car before we fly out – but 48 hours before our departure DAS had not scheduled a trucker to pick up our vehicle. I was in a frenzy and called around to a couple of other top-rated companies in the auto transport industry. They answered on the weekend with a live operator and booked a pickup for Monday morning.” Gene Fennison, 2011 Nissan Maxima, Tampa FL to Cleveland OH

"Another great job! Our customer wanted this specific model in a specific color and instead of waiting 10 weeks to receive a new order, we thought it best to purchase this from another Lexus dealership. We found the car in Georgia, but it had to be delivered in 3 days in order to close the deal. Easy Car Shipping had a carrier in the Atlanta area and was able to pick up within just a few hours after we booked the order. Came thru for us again, as always with the great experience.” Joseph Musco, 2016 Lexus RX350, Alpharetta, GA to San Antonio, TX

When is the enclosed express auto shipping combo worth it? 

If the vehicle is currently worth more than $70,000 and you have timing constraints, enclosed auto transport is definitely something to consider in addition to the direct express option. You’ll see that price-point option in the bottom-right section of your Quick Quotes.

Do you need express motorcycle shipping, or express golf cart shipping? We offer that as well.

Whether you choose to ship those fully enclosed to provide extra protection from the elements and wind-shear, or on an open carrier as most people do, our express program makes your full satisfaction our top priority - making us one of the best car transport companies out there.
