Real price ranges from New Jersey, the six factors that set your price, and how to tell a real quote from a lowball.
Fast, secure pricing in 30 seconds.
The honest answer is that it depends on six things, and the quote tool at the top of this page weighs all of them in about 30 seconds. But here is how the pricing actually works, with real ranges, so you can judge any quote you receive, from us or anyone else.

Ranges reflect typical carrier rates for operable vehicles with a flexible pickup window. Peak season, expedited service, inoperable vehicles, and oversized vehicles are higher. These are estimates, not quotes.
Our quotes include the carrier's rate, fuel, tolls, the carrier's cargo insurance, loading and unloading, and door-to-door service. There are no fuel surcharges, "insurance fees," or delivery fees added at the door. The number you see is the number you pay unless you change the service after booking.
Auto transport is a marketplace: brokers post loads at a price, and carriers choose which to accept. A quote that is $200 or more below everyone else's is usually a price no carrier will take. The car sits, the company calls back to "find a carrier" at a higher price, and you've lost a week. Ask any company two questions: is this price guaranteed, and when will a carrier actually be assigned? If the answers are vague, so is the price.
Most open-transport shipments from New Jersey fall between $600 for short regional moves and $1,800 for cross-country, with Florida typically $900 to $1,300 for a sedan. Enclosed adds 40 to 60 percent. The quote tool gives an exact all-in price for your route and vehicle.
Carrier rates move with fuel prices and seasonal demand. The Florida lane, for example, is more expensive in late October than in July. Your price is locked when you book.
No. Our quotes are all-in: fuel, tolls, carrier insurance, loading, and door-to-door service are included. The only additions would be changes you request after booking, such as switching to enclosed or expedited.
Sometimes it's a lowball: a price posted to carriers that no carrier will accept, which means your car sits for weeks until the broker raises it. Ask any company whether the price is guaranteed and when a carrier is actually assigned.
Payment terms are explained clearly at booking. Typically a portion is paid when a carrier is assigned and the balance at delivery; the quote tool and your dispatcher will spell it out before you commit.
