Priority Car Shipping When Every Day Counts
Expedited auto transport is our priority shipping tier that guarantees carrier pickup within 1-2 business days of booking. While standard service matches carriers within 1-3 business days, expedited puts your shipment at the front of the queue with dedicated dispatchers actively seeking the fastest available carrier on your route.
This service is ideal for military PCS orders with hard report dates, job relocations with fixed start dates, auction purchases with storage deadlines, dealers needing inventory fast, or anyone who simply cannot afford to wait. The transit time once loaded is identical to standard service -- what you're paying for is guaranteed fast pickup.

Same Great Delivery
Your vehicle travels the standard transit route with full insurance coverage. The earlier pickup means earlier delivery. Final inspection at destination, remaining balance collected.

Expedited vs. Standard Auto Transport

When Expedited Shipping Makes Sense
Expedited is not for everyone -- and we'll tell you that honestly. If your timeline is flexible, standard service is the better value. But when you have a hard deadline, the $150-$300 premium is the best insurance policy you can buy.
Military PCS Orders
Hard report dates with consequences for being late. Expedited ensures your vehicle arrives before you need it. Active military receive 5-10% discounts on expedited service.
Job Relocation
Starting a new job across the country with a fixed start date. You need your car there when you arrive, not a week later. Expedited gives you the certainty to plan around.
Auction & Dealer Purchases
Many auctions charge $25-$50/day in storage fees after 3-5 days. At $50/day, expedited pays for itself within a week. Get the car out before storage fees pile up.
Seasonal Moves
Snowbird season (Nov-Mar) and summer relocations create peak demand. Standard pickup windows can stretch during these periods. Expedited keeps your timeline locked regardless of season.
Last-Minute Moves
Plans changed, closing date moved up, or you just found out you need to relocate. Expedited is designed for exactly these situations -- fast, guaranteed, no scrambling.
High-Value Vehicles
If your vehicle is sitting in an unsecured location or exposed lot, every extra day increases risk. Expedited + enclosed gets your luxury or classic car into professional hands faster.
On a tight deadline?

Wash your vehicle so existing damage is visible for the condition report
Take timestamped photos of all 4 sides, roof, and any existing damage
Remove ALL personal belongings -- carrier insurance does not cover items inside
Leave fuel at 1/4 tank (enough for loading/unloading, reduces weight)
Disable aftermarket alarms to prevent them triggering during transport
Fold in side mirrors if possible to reduce loading risk
Ensure tires are properly inflated and battery is fully charged
Remove or secure loose accessories (bike racks, antennas, spoilers)
Provide carrier with one set of working keys
Have your contact info ready -- expedited moves fast, be reachable

Expedited Shipping FAQ
Expedited guarantees carrier pickup within 1-2 business days of booking. Standard service typically matches within 1-3 business days. The difference is guaranteed speed -- with expedited, you're paying for certainty, not just an estimate.
Expedited adds a flat $150-$300 to the standard rate, regardless of distance. A 1,000-mile sedan shipment that costs $650-$900 standard would cost $800-$1,200 expedited. The premium is the same for short or long hauls.
Same-day pickup is extremely rare and typically costs $500-$1,000+ over standard rates. It requires a carrier to already be in your area with available space. Next-day (within 24 hours) is more achievable at $300-$500 over standard.
Expedited guarantees faster pickup, not faster transit. Once loaded, FMCSA regulations limit drivers to 11 hours/day regardless of service tier. However, because you're picked up sooner, you're delivered sooner -- the total timeline shrinks by 1-2 days on average.
Yes. Expedited enclosed is our premium tier. It combines guaranteed 1-2 day pickup with enclosed trailer protection. Expect the expedited premium ($150-$300) on top of enclosed rates (40-60% more than open). Popular for high-value vehicles with tight deadlines.
If we fail to match a carrier within the guaranteed 1-2 day window, you receive a full refund of the expedited premium. Your shipment reverts to standard priority at the standard rate. This rarely happens -- our expedited fulfillment rate exceeds 95%.
As soon as possible. Even though expedited is fast, earlier booking gives our dispatch team more time to match the ideal carrier. During peak season (January, June-August), expedited spots can fill up 2-3 days in advance.
Yes, but it may be harder to match quickly. Non-running vehicles require carriers with winch or forklift equipment, which limits the carrier pool. We'll be upfront about expected timelines during quoting.
Absolutely. Every shipment -- standard or expedited -- includes real-time GPS tracking. You receive a tracking link when your carrier is confirmed and can monitor location 24/7 through our online portal.
We guarantee pickup windows, not delivery dates. Transit time depends on distance and road conditions (weather, traffic, FMCSA rest requirements). We provide accurate delivery estimates and keep you updated if anything changes.
Yes. Your total price -- including the expedited premium -- is locked the moment you book. No surprise increases, no fuel surcharges, no hidden fees. The price you see is the price you pay.
