Solid Market

Shipping from Lexington, KY

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.

High Volume

Arriving in San Antonio, TX

San Antonio is a solid mid-major auto transport market. I-10 runs through it east to west connecting it to Houston and El Paso. I-35 runs north to south and is one of the most important carrier corridors in Texas, connecting San Antonio to Austin, Dallas, and eventually the Midwest. I-37 heads southeast toward Corpus Christi. There is good dealer density in the metro and several auction locations including Manheim San Antonio. Military presence at Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph also keeps a steady flow of military relocation moves going in and out of the city year round. San Antonio moves well.

San Antonio is easy to deliver to. Carriers coming down I-35 from Dallas, east on I-10 from El Paso, or west on I-10 from Houston all pass through naturally. The military market ensures there are always cars moving in both directions, which keeps carrier interest high. Expect smooth deliveries on most routes.

Pricing on This Route

Shipping a standard sedan from Lexington to San Antonio on open carrier currently estimates between $700 and $1000. That is based on the 1,218-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.

San Antonio runs right around the national average. It is not as cheap as Houston or Dallas simply because it is a step down in carrier volume, but it is not a premium market either. The I-35 corridor to Dallas and Austin is especially competitive. Military relocation moves often have contracted rates through the government so if you are a service member make sure to ask about that when you get your quote.
