Kansas City sits at a genuine crossroads. Four interstates serve the metro. I-70 runs east to west, connecting St. Louis to Denver. I-35 runs north to south, connecting Minneapolis and Kansas City and continuing down to Oklahoma City and Dallas. I-29 heads northwest toward Omaha and Sioux City. I-49 runs south toward Arkansas and Louisiana. That is a lot of carrier corridors passing through one city. Manheim Kansas City is located on North Skiles Avenue and is an active regional auction. ADESA Kansas City is on Adesa Drive and adds more wholesale volume. The dealer market across Kansas City proper and the Kansas suburbs is solid. Carriers running the I-70 corridor from coast to coast pass through here regularly. This market sees good consistent traffic in most directions.
Pickups in Kansas City run 2 to 3 days on average. The metro spreads across both Missouri and Kansas, and both sides are accessible for carriers. The north side near I-29 and the east side near I-70 see the most truck activity. Suburban areas in Overland Park, Lenexa, and Olathe on the Kansas side are easy for hauler access. Downtown Kansas City is manageable. Winter on the plains can occasionally add a day when storms move through on I-70, but this is not a regular issue.

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.
Chicago is a strong delivery market. Carriers on I-80 from the coasts, I-55 from Dallas and the south, and I-90 from the northeast are all natural fits for dropping cars off here. Deliver to the suburbs and it is simple. Deliver to downtown Chicago proper and it is manageable but expect the carrier to request a meetup point rather than pulling a full hauler through the Loop.
Shipping a standard sedan from Kansas City to Chicago on open carrier currently estimates between $275 and $575. That is based on the 503-mile distance and current market conditions.
Kansas City runs at or slightly below the national average. The four-interstate access and auction density keep this market competitive. Routes on I-70 toward St. Louis, Denver, and the coasts are among the most active carrier corridors in the country and prices show it. Routes on I-35 between Dallas and Minneapolis are well traveled and efficient. Getting into rural Missouri or rural Kansas from Kansas City costs more because you are departing the dense corridors.

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.
