Lexington is a solid regional market sitting on two strong interstate corridors. I-64 runs east to west connecting Lexington to Louisville on the west and Huntington, West Virginia on the east. I-75 runs north to south connecting Cincinnati and Detroit to the north and Knoxville and Chattanooga to the south. That is excellent directional coverage for a city of this size. ADESA Lexington is active in the market with regular auction sales. Copart runs two Lexington East locations. The Research Park and pharmaceutical industry bring consistent professional relocations. Kentucky horse country also drives some specialty vehicle movement for high-value vehicles. This is not a major hub but it is better connected than most people expect.
Pickups in Lexington typically run 2 to 4 days. Carriers heading between Cincinnati and Knoxville on I-75, or between Louisville and West Virginia on I-64, pass right through Lexington and often look for loads here. The University of Kentucky creates some seasonal spikes around August move-in and May graduation. Most of the city is accessible for carriers. Rural areas outside the metro toward the Bluegrass horse farms may require a meetup in town. Get a quote to see what your specific route looks like.
Charlotte is the strongest auto transport market in the Carolinas and it has gotten meaningfully better over the last decade as the city has grown. ADESA Charlotte is on Fruehauf Drive in southwest Charlotte. Manheim Charlotte is in Concord, about 25 miles northeast. Manheim also has locations in Statesville and Kenly within the broader state network. IAA Charlotte operates in the metro as well. I-77 runs north-south through the city, connecting Charlotte to Columbia, South Carolina to the south and straight up to Charlotte Douglas International and eventually to I-81 in Virginia. I-85 runs northeast to southwest, connecting Charlotte to Atlanta in one direction and Richmond and the DC corridor in the other. That combination puts Charlotte at a natural crossroads for carriers running the Southeast.
Charlotte receives cars with very little friction. Carriers on I-85 between Atlanta and Richmond pass through the Charlotte metro regularly. Carriers on I-77 connecting the Southeast to the mid-Atlantic use Charlotte as a natural stop point. The result is that deliveries to Charlotte are reliable and do not require a premium in most cases. The Concord and Huntersville suburban areas are the cleanest for big hauler access. Uptown Charlotte near the Spectrum Center and the banking district can require a meetup in a nearby parking area but that is the exception, not the rule.
Shipping a standard sedan from Lexington to Charlotte on open carrier currently estimates between $275 and $575. That is based on the 343-mile distance and current market conditions.
Lexington prices at or slightly above the national average. The I-75 corridor is very active and keeps routes north and south competitive. Routes to Cincinnati, Louisville, Nashville, and Atlanta are well-priced. Routes to the coasts or the Deep South cost a bit more since carriers need to route specifically for Lexington rather than passing through. Overall it is a fair market.

Charlotte runs right at the national average or slightly below on most routes. The I-85 corridor to Atlanta is one of the most competitive lanes we work because carriers travel it constantly in both directions. Routes to and from the DC and Richmond corridor are very active. Routes to Florida are solid during snowbird season. Where pricing goes up slightly is on routes to the Midwest or West Coast because Charlotte is not naturally on those carrier loops and carriers have to make a detour to serve the market.
