Major Hub

Shipping from Atlanta, GA

Atlanta is the auto transport hub of the Southeast and it is not even close. Manheim Atlanta is one of the largest auto auctions in the entire country, processing tens of thousands of vehicles a month. ADESA Atlanta, Copart, and IAA locations add even more auction volume to the market. I-75 and I-85 cross through Atlanta and together they connect Florida to Michigan and the Northeast to the Southwest. I-20 runs east to west connecting Alabama and the Gulf Coast to South Carolina and the ports. Carriers are always in Atlanta because there is always another load waiting.

Pickups in Atlanta typically happen within 1 to 2 days. This is one of the fastest markets we work in. The sheer volume of auction activity alone means carriers are staging in and around Atlanta constantly. If your car is in the suburbs, Marietta, Roswell, Alpharetta, or the south side it is very smooth. Downtown Atlanta itself is manageable but as with most dense city centers carriers sometimes prefer a nearby meetup spot. The speed of this market is hard to beat.

High Volume

Arriving in Memphis, TN

Memphis is a logistics city at its core and that benefits auto transport directly. Two major interstates cross here. I-40 runs coast to coast, connecting Los Angeles to the East Coast and passing right through Memphis. I-55 runs north to south, connecting Chicago and St. Louis down to Louisiana and the Gulf. That intersection puts Memphis on carrier routes that span the whole country. ADESA Memphis has a location here. Copart and IAA both operate Memphis locations. There is also independent auction activity at Dealers Auto Auction on Rental Road. The freight culture here is deep, which means there are drivers and carriers who know this market well.

Delivering to Memphis is smooth because carriers on I-40 and I-55 pass through as a matter of course. Trucks heading from Dallas and Oklahoma City, Chicago and St. Louis, and from Atlanta all move through the Memphis area naturally. This is not a city carriers need to detour to reach. Suburban delivery east of the city is clean. Midtown and central Memphis is accessible and carriers can usually get close with a hauler.

Pricing on This Route

Shipping a standard sedan from Atlanta to Memphis on open carrier currently estimates between $375 and $675. That is based on the 411-mile distance and current market conditions.

Atlanta runs at or slightly below the national average on most routes. The Florida corridor is extremely active with snowbird traffic from October through April, so prices on Atlanta to South Florida routes can fluctuate seasonally. Everything else is pretty steady and competitive. Routes to Texas, the Carolinas, Tennessee, and the Midwest are all well serviced. Get a quote to see current pricing on your specific lane.

Memphis runs at or slightly below the national average. The I-40 and I-55 intersection keeps this market active enough that carriers are not charging a scarcity premium. Routes to and from Nashville, Atlanta, Dallas, and Chicago are all well traveled and competitively priced. The cost per mile drops further on long hauls because Memphis sits centrally on coast-to-coast runs. Routes into rural Mississippi, Arkansas, and western Tennessee cost a bit more because you are leaving the corridor. Get a quote to see your exact price.
