Truck Transport Services
Pickup trucks have been around for just about as long as automobiles have been available. They’ve served many different purposes but there’s one thing that always remains the same. Pickup trucks have a bed in the back and must be capable of towing or hauling things. This is what trucks do and seeing how there are many different kinds of trucks available in different sizes with different power capabilities, you can bet there will be a fair amount of trucks needing to be shipped daily . In this article, we will try to map out some of the contributing factors, which may affect the cost of your truck transport as well as carrier availability. We hope to provide you with tips to help you secure an affordable truck transport that will meet all your shipping requirements and budgetary needs.
Cost To Ship A Truck
As previously mentioned, trucks can come in a variety of sizes and dimensions making it difficult sometimes for auto transport reps to be able to determine an accurate quote because your dodge ram may be the larger style as opposed to the smaller and more modern version. Pickup trucks are typically shipped as an oversize or overweight vehicle with higher fees that a carrier would normally asses for a larger vehicle. This isn’t anything that can be controlled since hauling larger vehicles are bigger than your standard car size and require more fuel to transport and thus transport companies can charge more for larger automobiles to help offset the extra fuel spent during transport.
Trucking And Shipping
Take for example the older and much smaller Ford Ranger pickup truck. These types of trucks will have little if any oversized vehicle fee associated with their transport. If you try to ship a larger F350 however you’ll find the cost to be several hundred dollars more
