Car Transport to Weddington Tips and Tricks
Most car shippers like to run routes into and out of major metropolitan areas and large cities, as that tends to be where their largest concentration of customers are. By sticking to major cities and their surrounding metro areas, auto shippers can provide services for multiple customers in an area, which allows them to coload – that means they load more than one vehicle in one area for multiple customers. This saves the carrier a lot of time when they run a route, and lowers costs for them as well as they don’t have to go out of their way for multiple customers. This in turn keeps your prices lower, as carriers need to keep up with pricing so they stay competitive.
It also helps that Weddington sits just off I-485, a major auxiliary interstate and a large portion of the Charlotte beltway. Beltways are highways, sometimes one but oftentimes segments of multiple highways, that essentially encircle a large city and provide transportation to the myriad cities, towns and suburbs around that major city. Beltways are awesome for car transporters, as they can easily get from one part of a metro area to another, which helps them keep their overall costs of operation lower and also helps keep prices more competitive for customers. Not only that, but beltways also help to lower transit times as well as pickup and delivery windows, as they are high-speed highways designed for heavy vehicular traffic.
