El Paso is a tough market for auto transport. We ship cars to and from here, but it takes some patience. Even though it is a decent sized city with about 870,000 people, it is very isolated. The nearest major metro is San Antonio and that is 550 miles east on I-10. Phoenix is 430 miles west. That is a lot of empty road with not much in between. There are no major auto auctions like Manheim or ADESA in El Paso, and the dealership count is lower than you would expect for a city this size. Less dealer activity means fewer carriers have a reason to be in the area.
Pickups from El Paso usually take 5 to 10 days. Sometimes longer. The main challenge is that carriers running I-10 from LA to Houston pass right through El Paso, but they do not always want to stop. If they already have a full load they are going to keep driving. We usually need to catch a carrier who has an open spot and is already on the I-10 corridor, or find one willing to make the trip for the right price. Being flexible on your pickup date helps a lot in a market like this. The more flexible you are, the faster we can get someone there. Want to check availability?

Denver is the auto transport hub of the Rocky Mountain region and it is the only true hub for hundreds of miles in any direction. That gives it real importance. I-70 runs east toward Kansas City and west into the Rockies toward Salt Lake City. I-25 runs north to south connecting Wyoming down through Colorado Springs to New Mexico. There is a Manheim location in Denver. The dealer market across the Front Range including Boulder, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs, and the suburbs is solid and growing. Carriers running the I-70 corridor make Denver a natural stop.
Delivering to Denver is reliable. Carriers coming in from the east on I-70 from Kansas City and St. Louis make this a natural stop. From the south on I-25 out of Albuquerque or El Paso it is a longer haul but manageable. From the west, carriers crossing the Rockies from Salt Lake City run this route regularly. Winter mountain pass closures can add a day to westbound deliveries occasionally but carriers have experience navigating around them.
Shipping a standard sedan from El Paso to Denver on open carrier currently estimates between $425 and $725. That is based on the 680-mile distance and current market conditions.
El Paso almost always runs above the national average. Expect to pay a 15 to 30 percent premium compared to a similar distance from a major hub. The reason is simple. Carriers have to drive through a long stretch of empty highway to get here and there might not be a load waiting for them on the other end. That dead head mileage has to get paid for somehow. There is not much seasonal variation though. It is pretty consistently a premium market year round. If you want the best shot at a fair price, be flexible on your dates and give us as much lead time as you can. Get a quote to see exactly where your route falls.
Denver runs slightly above the national average, mostly because of the mountain premium that carriers factor in for routes crossing the Rockies, and because it is not on the flat carrier superhighways like I-10 or I-80. The Denver to Dallas lane and Denver to LA lane are very active and competitively priced. Routes to and from the Pacific Northwest and the Midwest are solid. Get a quote to see your specific lane.
