What drives the price on this lane
- Distance. 2,596 miles puts this lane at about $0.68 a mile. Coast to coast is the cheapest per mile and the slowest in days. Trucks fill up completely before departing, so flexible dates are worth real money here.
- Season. January and the summer months are the national peaks. Outside them this lane prices steadily, and booking a week ahead beats negotiating — a load posted with lead time gets picked up by a truck already heading that way. An east-west run, priced mostly by how many trucks are repositioning back toward the coast.
- Direction. Vermont is a dense freight market, so a carrier delivering here can reload quickly and does not need the trip to pay for the run back. This direction usually prices a little under Vermont to Idaho.
- Trailer. Enclosed protects from weather and road debris and costs about 38% more here ($2,280–$2,590). The premium grows with distance — an enclosed trailer carries fewer cars, so the longer the run the more deck revenue the carrier gives up. Worth it for low-clearance, classic or high-value cars; rarely worth it otherwise.
- Condition. A car that does not run needs a winch at both ends and adds about $200. Tell the broker up front — a driver who finds out at pickup can refuse the load.

Can the carrier pick up and deliver to my door?+
Yes on almost every lane. The truck gets as close as it legally and physically can — on a narrow residential street the driver will ask you to meet at a nearby lot.
How do I ship my car from Idaho to Vermont?+
Give the two ZIP codes and what you drive, and the request goes to a panel of licensed companies at once instead of you calling down a list. They quote, you compare side by side, and you deal directly with whoever you pick — we take no commission and nobody gets your number until you hand it over. You do not travel with the car: the driver collects it, you both sign an inspection report, and the same happens at the far end.
