Fully insured, door-to-door auto transport. No deposit until your carrier is confirmed. 5-star rated.
Houston is one of the easiest cities in the country for auto transport. We move cars in and out of here every single day. It sits right on I-10 and I-45 which are two of the busiest carrier corridors in the US. There are hundreds of dealerships across the metro, plus Manheim Houston, ADESA Houston, and multiple Copart and IAA locations. That means carriers are always running through here looking for loads. On top of that, the Port of Houston handles a ton of vehicle imports and exports, so there is never a shortage of trucks in the area.
Pickups in Houston are fast. Most of the time we get a carrier assigned within 1 to 3 days. Sometimes it happens same day if the timing lines up right. There are so many carriers running through the Houston metro that you are rarely waiting long. The only time things slow down a little is during hurricane season from August to October when some carriers avoid the Gulf Coast. Even then it is usually just a day or two longer than normal.

Washington DC is a strong market that runs busy year round, but it comes with real operational quirks. The metro has solid auction infrastructure nearby. Manheim Baltimore-Washington and Manheim Fredericksburg bracket the market from north and south. ADESA Washington DC sits in Dulles, Virginia. Multiple Copart locations operate in the Maryland and Virginia suburbs. The core issue is that DC itself is not easy to access by carrier. I-95 runs right along the eastern edge of the metro, I-495 circles the city as the Capital Beltway, and I-66 and I-270 feed in from Virginia and Maryland. The interstate access is genuinely good. The problem is that downtown DC, the Hill, and inner neighborhood streets are built for a different era. Big haulers prefer the Virginia and Maryland suburbs.
Receiving a car in DC works the same way. Carriers active on I-95 between the Northeast and the South pass through this corridor all the time, so there is regular traffic serving the market. Delivery to Virginia suburbs or Maryland suburbs is clean and fast. Delivery inside the District to tighter neighborhoods means meeting your driver nearby, which is common for any dense urban market. We will coordinate that directly. If your building has a loading area or a nearby parking structure, that is perfect.
Shipping a standard sedan from Houston to Washington on open carrier currently estimates between $900 and $1200. That is based on the 1,487-mile distance and current market conditions.
Houston almost always runs at or below the national average. High carrier volume means more competition for your load and that keeps prices down. The huge number of dealerships and auctions in the area means there is constant demand, but there are also plenty of carriers to meet it. The only time you might see prices bump up a little is during hurricane season when some trucks reroute away from the Gulf. But even then we are talking small increases, not anything crazy.

DC runs slightly above the national average on pricing. The access premium is part of it. Carriers dealing with I-495 traffic, tolls on 95, and tight city streets factor that into their bids. Routes to and from the Northeast corridor, especially New York and Boston, are very competitive because carriers are always running that lane. Routes south to the Carolinas, Atlanta, and Florida are active too. The one lane that gets expensive is anything heading long haul to the Midwest or West Coast because DC is not naturally on those carrier loops. Get a quote to see your exact price.
