San Antonio is a solid mid-major auto transport market. I-10 runs through it east to west connecting it to Houston and El Paso. I-35 runs north to south and is one of the most important carrier corridors in Texas, connecting San Antonio to Austin, Dallas, and eventually the Midwest. I-37 heads southeast toward Corpus Christi. There is good dealer density in the metro and several auction locations including Manheim San Antonio. Military presence at Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph also keeps a steady flow of military relocation moves going in and out of the city year round. San Antonio moves well.
Pickups from San Antonio usually happen within 2 to 3 days. The I-35 corridor to Dallas and Austin is one of the most active carrier lanes in Texas and your car can often catch a truck already running that route. Military relocation moves add consistent demand that keeps carriers interested in this market throughout the year. If you are shipping to Houston, Dallas, or Austin, timing is typically fast. Routes to the coasts take a little longer to match but the connections through Dallas and Houston make them manageable.
Sacramento is the gateway between Northern California and everywhere else. I-5 runs north to south through the city, connecting it to the Bay Area on the south and to Redding and Oregon on the north. I-80 runs east to west, linking Sacramento to Reno, Salt Lake City, and eventually Chicago. This interstate junction makes Sacramento a natural waypoint for carriers on transcontinental runs. The auction market here is active. ADESA Sacramento operates out of the eastern part of the metro. IAA Sacramento handles insurance volume consistently. Manheim has had operations in Sacramento as well. The state government employment base and steady suburban growth in the region keep the dealer market solid. Carriers moving between LA and the Pacific Northwest always pass through Sacramento on I-5.
Sacramento is an easy delivery city. Carriers coming down I-5 from Oregon or heading up from the Bay Area drop cars here regularly. It sits right on the main spine of West Coast carrier traffic. Suburban deliveries to Roseville, Elk Grove, and Folsom are the simplest. Downtown Sacramento works fine as well. Carriers familiar with the metro have no trouble navigating it.
Shipping a standard sedan from San Antonio to Sacramento on open carrier currently estimates between $950 and $1250. That is based on the 1,776-mile distance and current market conditions.
San Antonio runs right around the national average. It is not as cheap as Houston or Dallas simply because it is a step down in carrier volume, but it is not a premium market either. The I-35 corridor to Dallas and Austin is especially competitive. Military relocation moves often have contracted rates through the government so if you are a service member make sure to ask about that when you get your quote.
Sacramento runs close to the national average on most routes. The Bay Area to Sacramento lane is extremely active and priced well. Routes to Portland, Seattle, Las Vegas, Phoenix, and the Pacific Northwest are competitive because Sacramento sits naturally on those carrier paths. Long haul routes east on I-80 are solid too, with carriers filling loads heading toward Nevada, Utah, and Colorado. Summer is the busiest season due to relocation traffic. Winter is manageable because Sacramento does not get severe weather. Get a quote to see your exact price.
