Transporting your car vs driving

car shippingauto transportdrivingcomparison

When relocating across the country, one of the biggest decisions you'll face is whether to drive your car yourself or have it professionally transported. Both options have their pros and cons.

Cost Comparison

Driving your car yourself involves gas, food, lodging, and potential vehicle wear. Professional auto transport may cost more upfront but can save you time and reduce wear on your vehicle.

Time Considerations

Driving cross-country can take several days, while auto transport allows you to fly to your destination and have your car arrive separately. Consider your schedule and priorities.

Vehicle Wear and Risk

Long-distance driving adds miles and wear to your vehicle. Professional transport can help preserve your car's condition and reduce the risk of accidents during the journey.
