There are many items that impact the rate of your Michigan to Minnesota auto transport. The time of year is important factor as more people are transporting vehicles during the summer which means fewer transport spots are available. The type of shipping (enclosed or open) is another big factor in cost. The size of your extended cab pickup, hatchback, sports car or minivan also has a big impact on your shipping cost. The bigger the vehicle the higher the transport cost. Keep in mind, inoperable vehicles will significantly increase your shipping rate. Not informing a transport company that your vehicle is inoperable (flat tires, dead battery, blown engine, no brakes, etc) may result in them leaving your vehicle. Other factors include accessories and/or vehicle modifications such as Rear bumper guards, Oversized antennas, Running lights and Nerf bars which can increase the height and width of a vehicle.
