What to Expect from Texas Vehicle Shipping with SGT Auto Transport

One thing there’s little argument about: there is a lot of ground to cover between Michigan and Texas. If you need vehicle transport along that route, you need to go with the company that offers the best shipping options, the best equipment and systems, the best team of people and the most experience. What you don’t want to do is to have your vehicle shipped by the first transport company you find, or the one that has the lowest rates – because too often, you’ll find out that they’re cutting corners here and there and you might not be happy with their performance and service.

What Factors Affect the Cost to Ship a Car From Michigan to Texas?

Here’s a breakdown of some of the factors that have to be considered when setting up a cost structure for auto logistics

Routing: this is more than just the miles involved in getting a shipment from pickup to destination. When  a transport driver has to trave from the Interstate to get to a remote small town or rural area, that means more miles and more windshield time on the part of the driver, and that results in higher shipping costs.

Calendar period: in the auto logistics business, there are cycles  where the volume of vehicle shipments will pick up, then cool off again. Around those calendar periods when there’s an uptick in the volume of shipping orders, there’s a scarcity of drivers who are available to handle incoming orders and the supply/demand dilemma means that rates will be a little higher until the traffic in orders starts to drop off again. 

Year/make/model of vehicle: curb weight and dimensions will always be big determinants of shipping costs. It’s going to be more expensive in fuel costs to transport a bigger, heavier vehicle, and thus shipping costs will be higher for a full-size truck or SUV (or a vintage Cadillac) than a subcompact like a Mini Cooper. 

Shipment method: owners of classics, rare antiques or very valuable cars often want enhanced levels of protection and security while en route. That’s why we offer a few various systems and options  for vehicle transport, all of which come in at different points on the price scale. 

Vehicle running condition: we can and do ship vehicles that aren’t operational, such as a project car that’s being restored  but has to go to a specialized shop in some other part of the country. Transporting vehicles that can’t start, run, drive and stop under their own power means more time, special equipment and procedures on the part of the driver, which is why that’s one of the questions  in the quote process (not all transport trailers come complete with a winch to load and secure a non-running car). Shipping a non-running vehicle will be a bit more expensive. 

Cost/mile: this will always be the most basic metric for any logistics company, and all of the above factors (and more) go into determining cost/mile ratio. 

How long does it take to Ship a Car from Michigan to Texas?

Let’s narrow this down and talk about vehicle shipment from Grand Rapids to San Antonio. That could be routed entirely on the Interstates, and would be a bit upwards of 1300 miles. Not figuring for breaks and meals,  that would be about 22 hrs on the road. Our ground rules state that a delivery that has to cover 200 miles should be doable in a single day, while a 2000 mile run can take as long as an 8 to 9 day turnaround. With that in mind, we could estimate that Grand Rapids to San Antonio should take 4 to 5 days. 

 

Do bear in mind, though, that shipping times and ETAs are always going to be estimates and not hard guarantees. Events like traffic, bad weather (like a Michigan winter), road conditions and detours can all disrupt a delivery schedule, and of course all scheduling has to be worked around DOT regulations for driver hours of service. If your vehicle delivery schedule has been delayed, you can count on being notified by  the team at SGT Auto Transport, and we’ll keep you up to date on the new ETA for your delivery. 

How much does car transport Michigan to Texas cost?

When calculating the cost of auto transport, car shipping companies in Michigan to Texas consider several things. The key factor is how far you want to ship your vehicle, closely followed by the type of vehicle you want to ship. The following factors also make a difference in the cost of car shipping services.

Adaptability is important to answering customer needs, and SGT Auto Transport has a number of options available for your auto logistics solutions.

Top 6 hints for transporting/moving to this state

If your address is on a congested urban or suburban street with lots of parked cars and low hanging branches, perhaps you should meet your transport driver at an easier spot such as an open parking lot

Please remember your driver needs a copy of the car’s ignition key

Enclosed car transport is recommended for lowriders, exotics, sports cars, supercars and anything with very low ground clearance

Please be sure all four tires are aired up, the battery is charged and all lights and taillights work

Please remove any detachable external accessories like light bars, antennas, cargo carriers, bike racks

It’s advisable to ship vehicles with ¼ tank of fuel or less, saving curb weight and shipping costs 

Please go over your vehicle and look for fluid leaks: motor oil, coolant, transmission, brake or power steering fluid. A driver may refuse to load a vehicle with fluid leaks

It’s advisable to take photos of your car during the pre-trip and post-trip inspections to document its condition.

You will get a phone call from the driver about two hours before pickup and before delivery, letting you know he’s on the way. 

You can ship up to 100 lb of personal items with the vehicle, as long as they’re secured in the cargo area or trunk.
