        Auto shipping to and from Atlanta is available year-round. Since it’s a major hub of industry in the South, there are plenty of shipping services that move cars in and out of the greater Atlanta area. The best way to find a good price is to compare a few different options.

        What to Expect When Shipping a Car in Atlanta

        Atlanta is home to a thriving entertainment industry, music scene and technology sector. If you’re moving to the city, there is plenty to do. The city’s economy ranks in the top 20 worldwide. Atlanta is also called the City in a Forest because almost half of it is covered by tree canopy – a rare find in a big city. 

        Generally speaking, any time of year is good for auto shipping to and from Atlanta. Numerous highways crisscross the metro area, making it easy to ship a car anywhere in the country. Be aware that prices will increase during the summer and in January, as many people relocate during these times. The city also has a reputation for dense rush-hour traffic, so it helps to have some flexibility in pickup and dropoff times. 

        Cost of Shipping to and from Atlanta

        Below are a few quotes for auto shipping to and from Atlanta based on different distances. These quotes come from Montway Auto Transport, our top pick for car shipping. You can find out more about the provider in our Montway Auto Transport review. 

        Origin/Destination CityDistanceCost of Auto Shipping
        to Atlanta
        Cost of Auto Shipping
        from Atlanta
        Baton Rouge, LA500 miles$719$629
        Lincoln, NE1,000 miles$1,029$979
        Bismarck, ND1,500 miles$1,37$1,319
        Las Vegas, NV2,000 miles$1,179$1,139

        In the quotes above, you can see that car shipping costs vary depending on whether you are moving to or away from the city. Also, these quotes apply to a 2020 Honda Accord, which fits on an open transport truck easily. You’ll pay more to ship a heavy car, a truck or an SUV. Choosing enclosed transport will cost more as well.

        Frequently Asked Questions About Auto Transport

        What is the cheapest way to ship my car?

        Comparing open car transport services is the best way to find cheap car shipping prices. On a multi-car transport truck, the cost of shipping is split between up to 10 vehicles. You can also save money by meeting the carrier at a shipping terminal instead of having your car picked up and delivered to your home address. 

        What is the cheapest way to ship my car across the country?

        The cheapest way to ship your car across the country is to book an open transport truck during the off-season. This means you should avoid the summer months and January, which are peak auto shipping times. You should also book your shipment at least two weeks in advance to avoid expedited shipping charges.

        How much does it cost to have a car shipped from another state?

        It can cost anywhere from $500 to $1,500 or more to ship your car to another state. In general, you’ll pay about $2 per mile for shipments under 500 miles, $1 per mile for shipments between 500 and 1,000 miles, and 60 cents per mile for shipments over 1,500 miles. 

        How much does it cost to ship a car to Atlanta?

        Depending on your origin city, it can cost between $500 and $1,400 to ship a standard car to Atlanta. Prices vary depending on the type of vehicle, type of service, time of year and more. Auto shipping from Alaska or Hawaii will cost significantly more. 

        Methodology

        The Detroit Bureau collects data from every major car shipping provider to formulate rankings of the best auto transport companies. Our in-depth rating system takes into account pricing, services, customer satisfaction and ratings from industry experts. Each provider is given a weighted score in four categories, as well as an overall score out of 10.0.

        We recommend car shipping companies based on these rankings, but we also encourage you to perform your own research and compare quotes to find the best service.
