There are many factors that impact the cost of your South Dakota to Iowa auto transport rate. The size of your compact car, crossover, crew cab truck or full size pickup also has a big impact on your shipping cost. The bigger the vehicle the higher the transport cost. Other factors include accessories and/or vehicle modifications such as Roof rack, Running boards, Nerf bars and Oversized tires which can increase the height and width of a vehicle. The time of year is another important factor as more people are transporting vehicles during the summer which means fewer transport options. Inoperable vehicles (flat tires, dead battery, no brakes, blown engine, etc) will significantly increase your transport rate. Not informing a transport company that your vehicle is inoperable may result in them leaving your vehicle. The type of transport (enclosed or open) is another big factor in cost. And finally, shipping distance is one of the biggest factors affecting your transport rate.
