Chicago is the crossroads of American auto transport. Four major interstates converge here. I-90 and I-94 run east to west. I-55 drops south toward St. Louis. I-80 is one of the most heavily used carrier corridors in the country running straight across the middle of the US. Manheim Chicago is one of the largest and most active auto auctions in the Midwest. The dealer market across the metro and suburbs is deep. Carriers are always moving through Chicago because there is always another load waiting for them.
Pickups from Chicago run 1 to 3 days most of the time. The northern suburbs, western suburbs, and south side generally work better for carrier access than tight downtown neighborhoods. We move cars from the city regularly but if you can arrange a pickup from a suburb or parking lot near an on-ramp it smooths things out. Winter is Chicago's one challenge. January and February can slow pickups by a few days as some carriers avoid the Great Lakes region during heavy snowfall weeks. The rest of the year is fast and competitive.

Aurora is the eastern suburbs of Denver and carriers treat it as part of the Denver metro. Manheim Denver is actually located in Aurora at 17500 East 32nd Avenue, which means this is where the carrier and dealer activity is concentrated for the whole region. That is a significant advantage. I-70 runs east through Aurora heading toward Kansas City and connects west into Denver toward the mountains. I-225 cuts through Aurora connecting I-70 to I-25 in the southern metro. The dealer market across Aurora, Centennial, Parker, and the southeast Denver suburbs is active and growing.
Delivering to Aurora is smooth. Carriers on I-70 coming from the east, and trucks dropping down from I-25 from the north and south, all pass through or near Aurora naturally. The eastern and southern parts of Aurora are flat and easy for car haulers to navigate. Some of the hillier or newer residential developments in the far southeast can occasionally prompt a meetup request but it is not common. Most deliveries are door to door without any hassle.
Shipping a standard sedan from Chicago to Aurora on open carrier currently estimates between $625 and $925. That is based on the 1,111-mile distance and current market conditions.
Chicago runs right around the national average on most routes. Summer is busiest and prices edge up a little. Winter sees slightly more variability because of the weather factor. Routes to and from the South, Texas, and Florida are very active and competitively priced. Long haul routes to the West Coast are solid because carriers on I-80 fill up in both directions.

Aurora prices are Denver prices. The mountain premium that affects the whole Front Range applies here too. Routes heading west over the Rockies on I-70 toward Salt Lake City and the Pacific Coast carry that elevation and pass risk premium. Routes east toward Kansas City and Chicago on I-70 are very well priced because carrier traffic in both directions is strong. Dallas, Phoenix, and Houston lanes are active and competitive. Summer is the peak season. Winter sees some pricing volatility tied to weather. Get a quote to see your exact price.
