Shipping from Nashville, TN

Nashville is a really solid city for auto transport. We move cars through here pretty regularly and it is one of the easier mid-size markets in the country. Three major interstates cross through Nashville. I-40 runs east to west, I-65 runs north to south, and I-24 cuts southeast toward Atlanta. That puts Nashville right in the middle of a bunch of busy carrier routes. Manheim Nashville is active and draws carriers through on a regular basis. There are plenty of dealerships in the metro too, so there is good truck traffic year round.

Pickups in Nashville usually happen within 2 to 4 days. It is not quite as fast as a mega hub like Houston or Atlanta, but it is close. Carriers running I-40 between Memphis and Knoxville pass right through, and so do trucks on I-65 heading between Louisville and Birmingham. That gives us a lot of options when looking for a carrier on your route. During the summer months things can get a little busier with people relocating, but nothing that causes major delays.

Major Hub

Arriving in New York, NY

New York is one of the highest volume auto transport markets in the country. We move cars in and out of the metro constantly. The challenge here is not finding a carrier. It is navigating the logistics. The metro has three major vehicle import terminals through Port Newark and Port Elizabeth in New Jersey, and there are large Manheim and ADESA auction locations that keep carrier traffic flowing through the area year round. Dealership density is extremely high across the five boroughs and into Long Island, Westchester, and New Jersey. Volume is not the problem. Access is.

Delivering to New York has the same street access issue. Most carriers will bring your car to within a few miles of your destination and meet you rather than attempting to drive a full car hauler through city streets. This is completely normal and expected. If you are in the outer boroughs or suburbs delivery is straightforward. Plan for a short drive to meet your carrier. It is not a big deal, just something to know ahead of time.

Pricing on This Route

Shipping a standard sedan from Nashville to New York on open carrier currently estimates between $625 and $925. That is based on the 925-mile distance and current market conditions.

Nashville usually runs right around the national average. Sometimes a little below it. You are not going to see the rock bottom prices that come out of mega hubs like Houston or LA, but you are also not paying any kind of premium. The I-65 corridor to Florida sees some seasonal swings during snowbird season from October to March, so if you are shipping between Nashville and South Florida keep that in mind. Prices on that lane can bump up 10 to 15 percent during peak months. For most other routes it stays pretty steady. Get a quote to see your exact price.

New York is not cheap. Prices run 10 to 20 percent above the national average. Part of that is the access premium because carriers deal with tolls, traffic, and tight streets. Part of it is just demand. There is enormous competition for slots on cars moving to and from New York. Winter can slow things down slightly when carriers prefer warmer routes, and summer sees elevated demand from people relocating. But overall this is a year round active market.
