Philadelphia is a major auto transport market with access to some of the busiest carrier corridors in the Northeast. I-95 runs right through the city connecting it to New York to the north and Baltimore, Washington DC, and the South to the south. I-76 connects west toward Pittsburgh and eventually the Midwest. The Philadelphia metro has solid dealer density and Manheim Philadelphia is one of the largest auto auctions in the Northeast, drawing significant carrier traffic to the region. Port of Philadelphia handles some vehicle movement as well. This is a well serviced market.
Pickups in Philadelphia typically happen within 2 to 4 days. The challenge is similar to other dense Northeast cities. Carriers prefer to pick up from the suburbs, South Jersey, Delaware County, or the Route 1 corridor rather than navigating city streets with a full hauler. If your car is in the city proper we will usually coordinate a meetup just outside. If you are in the suburbs it is smooth and typically closer to the 2 day end of the range. The I-95 corridor is one of the most active in the country and Philadelphia sits right in the middle of it.
Seattle is a solid auto transport market with a geographic reality that matters. It is in the top left corner of the continental US. That means carriers heading here are usually at the end of a run and need to turn around and head back south or east. The Port of Seattle handles vehicle imports and Manheim has a location in the area. The dealer market across Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma, and the surrounding suburbs is healthy. I-5 is the main artery connecting Seattle to Portland and LA to the south, and I-90 is the primary eastern route heading toward Spokane and eventually the Midwest. It is an active market, just not quite the crossroads that cities further south and east enjoy.
Delivering to Seattle is active on the I-5 southbound to northbound return runs. Carriers who just dropped cars in Portland often pick up in Seattle before heading south again. Delivery from California is frequent and well serviced. Coming in from the east on I-90 takes a bit more coordination but it gets done regularly. Plan for 3 to 5 days on most routes.
Shipping a standard sedan from Philadelphia to Seattle on open carrier currently estimates between $1475 and $1775. That is based on the 2,895-mile distance and current market conditions.
Philadelphia runs slightly above the national average. Northeast operating costs, tolls, and density all factor in. The I-95 corridor to DC and New York is competitive. Routes to Florida and the Southeast are active snowbird lanes from fall through spring. Routes to Texas and the Midwest are well established. Overall you are paying a modest premium for being in a dense Northeast metro but it is not dramatic. Get a quote to see your specific number.
Seattle runs slightly above the national average. The corner positioning means carriers are not passing through on their way somewhere else, they are specifically routing to or from the Pacific Northwest. That adds a small premium versus interior cities. The I-5 corridor to and from California is the most competitive lane. Routes to the Midwest run longer and slightly higher in cost because of the distance and mountain crossings. Get a quote for your specific route.
