High Volume

Shipping from Kansas City, MO

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.

Major Hub

Arriving in Dallas, TX

Dallas is one of the top five auto transport hubs in the country and it is not close. The DFW metro has Manheim Dallas Fort Worth, ADESA Dallas, and multiple Copart and IAA locations scattered across the region. The dealer density across Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Irving, and the surrounding suburbs is enormous. I-20, I-30, I-35, and I-45 all converge in this region giving carriers four major corridors to move cars in every direction. We move cars in and out of Dallas every single day. This market never really slows down.

Delivering to Dallas is just as easy. It sits at the natural midpoint of so many carrier routes. Trucks coming up from Houston on I-45, in from the west on I-20, down from Oklahoma on I-35, and east from the Midlands all pass through the DFW area regularly. Your car does not need any special routing or a premium to get here. Carriers want to come to Dallas.

Pricing on This Route

Shipping a standard sedan from Kansas City to Dallas on open carrier currently estimates between $325 and $625. That is based on the 554-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.

Dallas is consistently at or below the national average for auto transport. The high carrier competition in this market keeps prices down. You are not going to pay a premium just to get a car in or out of DFW. The only time prices shift noticeably is during the summer relocation season when demand spikes. Even then it is modest. Routes to Houston, San Antonio, Austin, and Oklahoma City are especially active and efficient. Get a quote to see your exact price.
