Shipping from San Antonio, TX

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.

Arriving in Denver, CO

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.

Pricing on This Route

Shipping a standard sedan from San Antonio to Denver on open carrier currently estimates between $675 and $975. That is based on the 979-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.

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.
