These examples represent average pricing for auto transport services operating in and out of Colorado Springs. Actual rates vary based on demand, season, and transport method.
✔ Vehicle make and model: Your vehicle's size, weight, and value influence the price. Smaller sedans are usually the most affordable to ship, while larger SUVs, trucks, and vans cost more because they require additional space on the trailer and increase fuel use.
High-value or collector vehicles benefit from enclosed transport, which offers full protection but costs more than open transport. If your vehicle does not run, the carrier must use special equipment during loading and unloading, which increases the overall price.
✔ Transport method: You can choose between open or enclosed transport for car shipping to or from Colorado Springs.
•
Open car transport is the most common and budget-friendly option. It works well for standard vehicles and is easy to schedule.
•
Enclosed auto transport shields your vehicle from weather and debris, making it a strong choice for classic, exotic, or luxury cars. It costs more and may require additional scheduling time due to limited carrier availability.
✔ Service level: Added services can affect your total cost. Expedited transport, guaranteed pick-up windows, top-load placement, or permission to ship personal items inside the vehicle all increase pricing. These options require extra coordination and often give your shipment priority handling.
✔ Pick-up and delivery locations: Rates within the Colorado Springs metro area remain fairly consistent because carriers regularly operate along major highways such as I-25 and US-24. Transport to or from rural towns, mountain regions, or remote areas can cost more because drivers must travel farther off main corridors. Meeting your carrier at a nearby city or along a major route sometimes helps reduce fees.
✔ Time of year: Seasonality affects pricing across Colorado. From spring through early fall, demand rises as more people relocate or purchase vehicles, leading to higher rates. Winter may bring weather-related delays, and fewer carriers operate long-distance routes during holiday periods. Booking early or staying flexible with dates can help secure better pricing.
✔ Fuel prices: Fluctuating diesel costs impact car transport rates. When fuel prices rise, carriers adjust their pricing to cover operational expenses. When fuel prices fall, the cost of auto transport often becomes more affordable.
✔ Available discounts: WeShipCars offers competitive pricing and several discount opportunities for customers. Reduced rates may be available for military members, students, multi-vehicle shipments, repeat customers, or other qualifying groups. Speaking with a shipping advisor is the easiest way to confirm current savings.
