Car Shipping in Clermont, Florida

The aspect of the rate that many people don't factor in is the route activity when trying to cost out a shipment from Clermont. The routing from Clermont is into I-4 and US-27 which feeds into the East and West Coast routes coming from Central Florida. Heavy carrier routes are cheap because there are many carriers willing to haul for fewer dollars per load. Sparse routes will be more costly no matter the mileage due to the limited number of carriers consistently traveling the route.

‍

The baseline is still going to be the mileage. 230 miles from Clermont to Miami will run from about $280 - $450 on open transport. 1,190 miles to New York runs $850 - $1,100. While the total cost will increase the farther out you go the less you will pay per mile as the carriers can amortize the fixed costs over a greater distance. Transport type, size, and condition will change that number.

‍

Most shipments are open transport, 6 to 10 vehicles at a time, thus keeping prices lower. Enclosed transport will cost an additional 40 - 60%. This is mainly used for classic and high value vehicles.oversized or inoperable cars carry surcharges and there is nothing you can do other than to add more dollars. The easiest way to cut costs without changing too much about the route is to just accept the first available transport rather than setting specific days.

The deciding factor between open and enclosed is: How much does condition on arrival mean to you?

‍

Open transport is the most common form of car transportation. This involves transporting from 6 to 10 cars on 1 trailer with several other cars being transported for other people. These are generally shared transport routes that offer both faster scheduling and lower prices. While the cars are exposed to the elements and the road during transit damage from this rarely occurs and most carriers insure their vehicles anyway.

‍

Enclosed transport involves a completely covered trailer that fully protects the vehicle while it is on and in the trailer. These take longer to schedule, transport fewer vehicles per trip and cost 40%-60% more than open transport. An 878 mile open trip from Clermont to Richmond, VA may cost $700 - $950 while the same enclosed trip would cost $980 - $1,425. For normal cars open is sufficient.

‍

For anything that you wouldn't want rain, dirt and road debris hitting it enclosed transport is worth the extra money. That includes luxury cars, classics, exotics, built custom cars, cars that are going to or from a show, and cars that are going to or from an auction.
