Costs & Timelines

Car Dealer Auto Transport Costs and Timelines

What affects your car dealer auto transport cost and timeline depends on a few operational variables.

Number of units and consolidation

Dealer auto transport and bulk car shipping are priced per unit, and the per-unit rate drops as you fill a load. Moving 5, 15, or 50+ units on a shared corridor is where wholesale car transport gets you the best rate.

Recurring vs spot moves

Dealers who haul cars regularly can be set up on recurring rates instead of one-off quotes. Consistent Canada car wholesale transport volume on known lanes earns better pricing than ad-hoc bookings. It also costs less than tying up your own drivers and flatbeds.

Dealer Auction-to-lot pickups

Getting units from dealer auction to your lot quickly keeps storage fees down. Pickup timing and the lot's release schedule affect both cost and how soon inventory reaches you. This is where dealer auction and dealer auto transport overlap, and our dealer auction page has the pickup detail.

Distance and route

High-frequency lanes between major markets have the most carrier capacity and the best rates, which makes dealer to dealer auto transport efficient. Repositioning stock to a less common or more distant market needs more lead time and costs more overall. The per-unit rate improves on longer lanes.

Delivery method

For dealer and wholesale volume, terminal-to-terminal car shipping is the most cost-effective option. Door-to-lot delivery is available when you need units dropped at the dealership.

Season

Model-year changeover and tax-season sales spikes drive dealer transport demand. Booking volume ahead of these periods keeps your per-unit cost down.
