Memphis is a logistics city at its core and that benefits auto transport directly. Two major interstates cross here. I-40 runs coast to coast, connecting Los Angeles to the East Coast and passing right through Memphis. I-55 runs north to south, connecting Chicago and St. Louis down to Louisiana and the Gulf. That intersection puts Memphis on carrier routes that span the whole country. ADESA Memphis has a location here. Copart and IAA both operate Memphis locations. There is also independent auction activity at Dealers Auto Auction on Rental Road. The freight culture here is deep, which means there are drivers and carriers who know this market well.
Pickups in Memphis usually happen within 2 to 3 days. Suburban areas east of the city and near the I-240 loop are easiest for carrier access. Areas closer to the airport logistics zone on the south side see consistent truck activity year round. Memphis weather is mild compared to northern cities, so winter slowdowns are minimal. The main seasonal pattern is the I-40 snowbird flow from October through April when carriers move heavily between the Midwest and Florida. Your car fits right into that flow if your route heads east or southeast. Get a quote to see what your specific route looks like.
Austin has become one of the fastest growing auto transport markets in the country over the last several years and the volume has followed. The tech industry boom brought tens of thousands of relocations from California, the Northeast, and the Pacific Northwest, and that created enormous shipping demand in both directions. I-35 is the main north to south corridor connecting Austin to Dallas and San Antonio. I-10 is accessible nearby heading east to Houston and west to the Hill Country. Dealer density has grown significantly and auction activity is solid. This market is active and getting more active every year.
Delivering to Austin is strong. The inbound relocation traffic means carriers frequently need to fill their trucks heading to Austin from both coasts. From California, the Southwest, and the Northeast carriers run to Austin regularly. It is a desirable delivery market because carriers know they can find a return load. Expect 2 to 4 days on most routes.
Shipping a standard sedan from Memphis to Austin on open carrier currently estimates between $425 and $725. That is based on the 683-mile distance and current market conditions.
Memphis runs at or slightly below the national average. The I-40 and I-55 intersection keeps this market active enough that carriers are not charging a scarcity premium. Routes to and from Nashville, Atlanta, Dallas, and Chicago are all well traveled and competitively priced. The cost per mile drops further on long hauls because Memphis sits centrally on coast-to-coast runs. Routes into rural Mississippi, Arkansas, and western Tennessee cost a bit more because you are leaving the corridor. Get a quote to see your exact price.
Austin pricing runs close to the national average with a few notable corridors. The Austin to California route is competitive and often well priced.

The relocation boom has actually kept prices reasonable because it brought more carrier supply to match the demand.
