Hot Rods cost to ship cars?

Anyone have a shipper they would refer? Moving to KS from CA (about 1300 miles) in about a year and have to figure out what Im going to ship or sell,,,thank ahead jim

 

It's worth your time to get in touch with some the Hamb Haulers listed in the Hamb-o dex,,you have pleanty of time to weigh your options. HRP

 

^^^^what he said^^^^

 

Right now $1.00- $1.25 a mile is a good rule of thumb.

 

That's a "loaded" mile, right?

 

Thanks everyone for the replies ,, I need to find out if on multiple cars there is any discount...jim

 

I just had a car shipped and had a hard time getting them to stick to the agreed pick-up and delivery schedule. It seems every time they dropped off a car they wanted to quickly fill the space, even if it meant constantly getting farther and farther from me. I would get some "no later than" dates for pickup and delivery in writing before you start. Also, watch out for people who are nothing more than brokers looking to make a quick buck finding you a driver, yet don't really care after that.

 

Do you have a truck and/or a trailer that you can take one to California ?

If you have a truck that will accomodate a U-Haul trailer,
that might be the solution to moving one.

You can post up in the ' Wanted ' section of the cl***ifieds,
you might find someone headed that way for a visit or holiday.

Kansas hauls are tough ...

Not much demand to haul into that state,
usually folks are full from points east when they drive thru along I-70.

In about (3) weeks Winter will starting kicking in,
the 2015 Old Farmers Almanac is predicting a similair winter
as bad or worse in some parts of the country as last year ....

I-70 can be a sheet of ice some days (as I am sure you know).

I am dropping this 1919 Model T PU in Hays, KS in a couple days,
then headed back to Denver to pick up & deliver to Wisconsin ...



Then it looks like back to Denver again from Wisconsin to pick up
and head to Florida ....

I came close to running out to Denver to get my Ford myself, would have ran me about $3500 with the flight (would have taken my son) and the u-haul truck and trailer, which was $1300 alone. Could have been a fun road trip.

 

If it is practical & the vehicle will make the trip,
a road trip is always the best way to go ....

Nothing beats memories ....
