There are many items that impact the rate of your Alaska to California auto transport. The size of your full size pickup, sports car, compact car or sub-compact car has a big impact on your transport rate. The bigger the vehicle the higher the transport cost. The time of year is another important factor as more vehicles are shipped during the summer which means fewer available shipping slots. Other factors include accessories and/or vehicle modifications such as Lift kits, Running boards, 4 wheel drive and Extended side mirrors which can increase the height and width of a vehicle. The type of transport (enclosed or open) is another big factor in cost. Inoperable vehicles (flat tires, no brakes, dead battery, blown engine, etc) will significantly increase your transport cost.
