Shipping a car from Alaska to Michigan presents its own set of challenges and opportunities, given Michigan’s unique geography, which includes proximity to the Great Lakes, large urban areas like Detroit, and extensive rural regions.

Transporting a vehicle from Alaska to Michigan may seem overwhelming, but with the right knowledge and services, it can be handled smoothly and without stress.

Whether you’re moving or need to ship your vehicle for other reasons, understanding the process, costs, and necessary preparations is key to ensuring a successful transport experience.

Introduction

Michigan’s harsh winters, frequent snowstorms, and icy roads make it crucial to select a reliable transporter experienced with both Alaska and Michigan’s challenging climates and road conditions.

Additionally, Michigan’s extensive highway system and connections to major transport routes offer a variety of shipping options, including open carriers for affordability and enclosed carriers for added protection.

This guide will help you through the process of shipping a car from Alaska to Michigan, offering insights into selecting the right service, preparing your vehicle, and ensuring a safe, timely delivery.

8 Factors Influencing Car Shipping Costs

The following variables may impact the cost of moving your car from Alaska to Michigan:

1. Distance

The distance of your move from origin to destination is one of the most significant factors. Since shipping is calculated on a cost per mile basis, the distance your car must travel will determine the final cost.

2. Vehicle Size and Type

The make and model of your car is also a big factor. Since larger trucks and SUVs weigh more than smaller automobiles, shipping costs will increase. Larger cars could need more expensive shipping techniques or specific equipment.

3. Shipping Method

Your chosen transport type: open, enclosed, or top-loaded, can influence the cost. Because enclosed transportation provides additional protection, the cost is usually higher.

4. Seasonal Demand

Depending on your route, the time of year can add a seasonality factor. Costs may fluctuate depending on the time of year and fuel prices.

5. Vehicle Condition

The condition of your vehicle can also affect the cost. Non-operational vehicles may require special handling and equipment, leading to higher shipping costs.

6, Schedule Flexibility

Last-minute shipping and strict pickup and delivery times are more difficult to schedule and often cost more. Booking as early as possible and staying flexible with your timeline can help you get good deals on shipping.

Fuel Prices

Current fuel prices can significantly impact the cost of shipping. Fluctuations in fuel prices are often passed on to the customer.

7. Pickup and Delivery Locations

The accessibility of your pickup and delivery locations can also influence the cost. Rural or hard-to-reach locations can increase prices.

8. Speed of Delivery

Expedited shipping services are available for faster delivery but come at a higher cost.

By being aware of these variables, you may reduce the cost of shipping your car and make an informed choice.

Estimated Shipping Time

Distance and urgency are two of the elements that affect how long it takes to send an automobile.

The following is a ballpark estimation of delivery timeframes based on distance:

  • 1 – 100 miles: 1 day
  • 101 – 350 miles: 1-2 days
  • 351 – 500 miles: 2-3 days
  • 501 – 800 miles: 2-4 days
  • 801 – 1,200 miles: 3-5 days
  • 1,201 – 1,500 miles: 4-7 days
  • 1,501 – 1,800 miles: 5-8 days
  • 1,801 – 2,200 miles: 6-9 days
  • 2,201 – 2,800 miles: 7-10 days
  • 2,801 miles or more: 8-12 days

Frequently Asked Questions

On average, for a standard shipment it will typically take one to seven business days from the time your booking has been received to locate a carrier and schedule a time for pick-up. Expedited services are available for rush shipments and time sensitive transports.

Based on mileage, once your vehicle has been picked up, it will typically be delivered within anywhere from one to ten days.

Your vehicle will be insured against in-transit damage caused by carrier negligence or equipment failure by the assigned auto shipping or car transport truck. These auto shipping and car transport trucks, by law, carry a minimum of $750,000 public liability insurance.

We accept major credit cards. If there is a balance due upon delivery, the auto shipping and car transport carrier will accept cash, bank/certified check, or postal money order.

Yes, there must be someone present to accept the vehicle, provide keys and sign an inspection report. This person can be anyone over the age of 18.

The farther in advance you schedule your shipment, the more likely we will be able to meet the time requirements you desire. For best results, try to schedule your transport at least 2-3 weeks in advance.

We advise you not to, as personal items are not insured if they are damaged or reported missing. If you decide to pack personal items inside your vehicle, it must not exceed 100 lbs. and must be kept in the trunk or back seats (below the window line).

When shipping your car to another state, the driver will get as close to your door as he can legally and safely get. Many cities have restrictions on large trucks that prohibit them from driving into some residential areas. Transport trucks are large and need lots of room to maneuver and turn around, so if access to the pickup or delivery location is restricted by narrow streets, low-hanging trees or tight turns, the driver may ask that you meet the truck at a large parking lot nearby, such as a grocery store.

Auto transport is not always simple. The car was picked up in California and delivered less than 72 hours later in Miami Beach. No damage. Very happy old lady of a car. Pricing was competitive. Folks were friendly and accommodating.
