  1. When Is The Cheapest Time Of The Year To Ship A Car? If you want to get a car transport service at insanely low prices, then you need to be careful about the time of the year you ship your car in. Below are all the seasons with their possible effects on the car shipping costs, so make sure to read till the end: Don’t Go For January: January is not just the time when people make New Year resolution and then break them soon after. It is also the time when they are returning to their homes after spending holidays with their family and friends. This means the car shipping companies are quite busy and getting people’s vehicles back to their homes. So as per the law of supply and demand, when the demand is higher than supply, the cost goes up. The same is here, due to the unavailability of carriers, you will have to pay extra to get a spot on the truck. Be Careful in February: February is the month when the dust starts to settle down, and things start to slow down for the auto shipping industry. However, you will have to be prudent when dealing with car transport companies because some of them don’t drop their prices. They will keep the charges the same as the month of January, and many people don’t bother checking with other companies and just reserve their spot. We suggest that you get a quote for multiple companies and also ask what their charges were in January; this should give you a better idea. March to May is Snowbirds Season: Now, this is the season when people who left their cold regions in the peak of winters to go to less cold areas will start heading back. The temperatures in their regions will start going up, so they will move back with their cars. This means the car shipping industry will again get a bit busy. Though it will not be like the month of January, but the prices will rise again. Now people who are heading in the opposite direction of where the snowbirds are going, will find prices to be quite low. This is because snowbirds will be going towards the same north side because of increase in temperature. So if you are going to the opposite of north or any other direction, you might find the prices to be lower. Avoid Shipping In Summers: Summer is again the busiest time and perhaps the only time when the car shipping cost reaches a record high. People start relocating in summer times, and families start to go on vacations because of summer holidays so most of the people need their cars transported as well.

  2. Furthermore, college students start heading home because of summer break and they usually get their cars transported as well. So we suggest you don’t ship in this season. Autumn is the Cheapest: [Recommended Time for Car Transport] Now is the season that you definitely need to ship your vehicle it. It starts from September and ends in November. This duration of three months is perfect for you because snowbirds have gone home, and college students’ summer break is over, they have gone to college again. So the auto shipping industry is quite slow during this season and that is why due to low demand, vehicle transport companies drop their rates so they can get more customers. Plan Early for December: Again a bad time to ship your car because thanksgiving season is around the corner so people visit their loved ones and get their cars transported too. Snowbirds are also getting ready to migrate from chilly north areas to lesser cold places. All of these factors in December increase the cost to ship a car. However, if you plan early like in the end of November, you might get lower costs.
