Many factors can impact the rate of your Ohio to California auto transport. The size of your mid-size crossover, hatchback, full-size crossover or full-size car has a major impact on cost. The bigger the vehicle the higher the shipping cost. Other factors include modifications and/or vehicle accessories such as Roof rack, Running boards, Trailer hitch and Oversized antennas which can increase the width and height of your vehicle. The type of shipping (enclosed or open) is another big factor on your shipping rate. Inoperable vehicles will cost significantly more. Not telling a transport company that your vehicle is inoperable (dead battery, flat tires, no brakes, blown engine, etc) may result in them refusing to pick up your vehicle. The time of year is another important factor as more people are shipping vehicles during the summer which means fewer transport slots and higher cost. Finally, shipping distance is one the biggest factors in your shipping cost.
